Vesuvio

Casually offered for sale 

Vesuvio is an extraordinary young stallion that has already excelled in all aspects: Hunters, Derbies, Jumpers, and Breeding. 

Very brave, huge stride, and broke well beyond his age in his flatwork. His rideability on the flat and gymnastics is exceptional and, if gelded, could walk right into top medal competitions with ease, skill and confidence. 

He grew tall very quick so was developed at first with more focus on the  hunters (where he has been very successful, scoring regularly in the 80s in Open Hunter Derbies alongside top competitors). As he gets stronger and more developed in his body we have moved him more into the jumpers.  Competing 1.20-1.25m currently (at Spruce Meadows Masters and Thunderbird). He is ready to move into the 30s, and should easily be showing 1.40m+ within the next year.

Schooling with ease at 1.30-1.40m now. Vio has also shown and schooled over all natural obstacles without any concern (table top, logs, water, banks, ditches, and so on). 
This stunning stallion has outstanding potential in all three rings, and would be an exciting and suitable mount for Professionals, amateurs and juniors (if gelded) alike. 

Vesuvio has 6 babies from 2023 breeding season, all beautiful bays that demonstrate stunning movement and above average temperaments!
