Most people when they see Miccho say Wow! He definately has that star factor. At only 3 years old, he already stands 16.2hh. Exceptionally well bred, sound and without injury, he raced just once. Gelded only in May, he has now been started back under saddle and he has been very relaxed and calm. He is a big young horse though and will need someone with prior experience at bringing on a young horse. Due to him being only recently gelded, he needs several months of private turnout before he can be introduced to small groups of older geldings. He also needs to be stalled at night, he does not like to be turned out for prolonged periods of time and so would not be suitable for anyone wanting a horse to live out on pasture 24/7.

Miccho is good to handle in all respects, good with the farrier, clippers, bathe, saddle etc. He has been evaluated by our vet and is with his disposition and movement, he would be most suitable either for dressage or jumpers.  He was retired from racing due a paralyzed flap in his throat.  He has been scoped and the vet report is on hand.  Thus far he has not made any noise while being worked.
