Location: Mittagong, NSW
Murphy is a quiet-natured 7-year-old Gypsy Cob × Quarter Horse gelding currently in work under saddle by Will Camacho Horsemanship. He will be in continued ridden work until sold.
Although he is green, Murphy has progressed in developing a solid foundation both on the ground and under saddle. He is an honest horse that enjoys having clear direction and continues to gain experience with consistent work.
Murphy is ideally suited to a knowledgeable home looking for a rewarding horse to continue producing. Murphy is being offered for sale as he is not the right fit for his current owner as an older rider.
Murphy is best suited to an experienced horse person looking for a rewarding horse to continue his education. He may take a little time to get to know a new person but is an enjoyable horse to work with.
He may get girthy when first returning to work after a spell, but is continuing to improve. This settles within a few minutes of groundwork, lunging then he’s ready to ride.
He does not get girthy while in consistent work.
Education, Skills & Experience
Murphy is currently in work four to five days a week and is receiving ongoing professional education.
Work includes:
-Walk, trot and simple canter transitions
-Balanced circles and figure-eight patterns
-stops and backing
-Learning soft collection
-Leg yields, independent hindquarter and forequarter turns
-Simple flatwork and foundation exercises
- Riding out in the paddock and opening gates in laneways
He enjoys being ridden in or out of the arena and will continue being ridden on trails and along a quiet road.
His education also includes exposure to:
Riding with Flags ,Tarps, Grain bags, Rope Swinging, riding over trot poles, working at liberty
Temperament Under Saddle
Murphy is willing and genuinely tries hard for his rider.
He enjoys being pulled out for work but like many horses returning to work after a spell, he benefits from a short groundwork or lunging session before riding to help him loosen up and focus.
