Listing Overview
Phoenix showed up to his very first recognized show and scored in the 70s at Training Level, the kind of debut that makes you sit up and pay attention. This 9-year-old Westphalian gelding is competing comfortably through First and Second Level with just 90 rides under saddle, bringing the athletic build and comfortable gaits that suggest plenty more to come. What stands out beyond his talent is his temperament: he's the true gentleman who approaches new challenges with confidence rather than tension, stands quietly for vet and farrier, and has earned his reputation as a barn favorite through his consistently friendly nature. He's the horse who makes the work enjoyable, mature enough to be reliable but still young enough to develop with you through the levels.
