Registered Name>> Flavio Vandervar
Barn Name>> Flavio
Birth Year>> 2012
Sex>> Gelding
Breed>> Dutch Warmblood
Breed Registry>> KWPN-NA
Coat Colour>> Dappled Grey

Height>> 17.2
Personality>> Flavio is great tempered, he is always wanting to please and tries to accomplish the tasks given. He is sweet and kind on the ground and under saddle. He can be goofy and pull faces when he wants to be.
Like any other horse he can have off days, he tends to mess around and refuse to jump, he can rear and buck in frustration and is also known for his huge ears going flat on the back of his head.
But apart from that he is pretty chilled, barely reacts to other horses in the same arena unless it makes a drastic move, he is normally very calm and composed and likes to get the work done.
Caution Around>> Hacking alone - can get excited | Feed time - gets excited and kicks the door, might threaten to lunge | Outdoor arena's... They are scary things.
Basic History>> After Saraphene begged her parents for a while they brought her Flavio, he was five when she originally got him and rode him everyday. Their bond grew and so did her passion for the Show Jumping scene. It was the one adrenaline rush she actually looked forward to.
Saraphene got the horse at a price of £6500, he was everything she wanted. He had a nice temperament, brilliant gaits, a nice strong back and a bery nice outline. The main thing was he had scope, that was the most important trait she was looking for as she wanted to be able to jump up to 1.45. So that is how they gained the horse.
The riding was easy, the horse was great and saraphene enjoyed his company, he got a bit strong in grid work and coming in and out of a double. He rushes oxers and normally over jumps.
