Available through New Vocations:

Skyla is a beautiful mare with a 10 trot. She originally went through our program as a two year (6 yrs ago) and has been with the same adopter since. Unfortunately due to finances she has come back to us to find a new home. As a two year old she was turned out for 6 months before she started schooling on the flat. Her adopter worked closely with a trainer as she was transitioned and eventually entered hunter/jumper training. She was not jumped until she was 4 years old and has been shown for about 5 years during the summer at local shows. The winter of 2005, Skyla spent sometime down in Wellington, Florida and took several lessons with a grand prix trainer. She never was shown but rather just schooled and hacked around the show area. Her favorite part was riding up and down the canals between the horse show grounds and the farm. She also spent sometime in South Carolina while her adopter attended college. She was shown at a couple “C” rated shows in the 2’6” division of both hunters and jumpers. Although she would win the flat classes she was a bit hot over fences so always did better in the jumper classes. She has also been trail ridden many times in Ohio and South Carolina and seems to enjoy it better than the show scene.

Skyla has had about 8 months off from riding. She is a bit out of shape but you can tell she is well schooled. It would not take long to get her back in shape. The video and conformation photos are current.

We feel Skyla would be the perfect horse for someone who wants to pleasure ride and do a couple small shows a year. She is well schooled but does get excited when jumping a course. However, she is quiet, calm and brave on the trails. Skyla would also make a lovely sporthorse broodmare. She is on the smaller side but has huge fluid gaits. She has good grounds manners, great feet, gets along well with other horses.
