Indiana, Prince of India

[Rockchick]

Horse Stable Name: Indiana
Horse Reg / Show Name: Prince of India
Sire: NightShift (USA) Tb
Dam: Indian Queen (UK) Tb
Age: 13 Years
Breed: Thoroughbred
Height: 17hh
Colour: Bright Bay

General / Personality: Typical Grumpy old man who only wants you when he needs you. When he is in a loving mood its lovely but when hes not hes foul lol. A pure delight to own as i think we suit really well as we both have mood swings lol. Over the years his personality has begun to shine and sometimes he has both me and my mom in stitches with his funny ways!

He loves getting treats with jam sandwiches and bananas being his favs! but dislikes bute and other things that he occassionally has to have.

To Ride has is very willing and although he has his moments he makes you feel at ease and is a very safe horse. He is 100% on the roads and isnt phased by the heaviest traffic, In the field i find him to be very forward going and i know this comes from his racing back ground so i cant blame him really.

I wouldnt swap him for the world.

Fav Activities: Indi loves Hacking especially when we go somewhere new. Hes not so keen on schooling but this is purely because of the added pressure it puts on his joints etc.

Our Goals: Our Future goals are for him to stay sound so that we can do the local showing circuit next year. I would like to do some Prelim Dressage with him and maybe some endurance.

[Rockchick]

Awww thanks guys!!

I am so proud of my boy, for him to go through all the shit (Pardon language) he has been through is amazing. He is my inspiration.

I have only ever opened him up in the field once and that was not MY decision lol he just went and the only way i could explain it would be i physically couldnt feel him underneath me, he practically flew and it was as if i was being left behind lol.

I have to admit i made a quick exit over his shoulder lmao (the one and only time i have taken a tumble off him!!!) was totally my fault he turned so fast and with me being left behind anyway i just lost balance.

I know this sounds soppy but i would never part from him as i couldnt imagine my life with out him in it, hes with me forever whether he likes it or not.
