2004 Appaloosa Warmblood Sport Horse

Prospect Evaluation
This gelding is a tremendous prospect for Dressage & Hunter/Jumper. His legs are large with substantial bone. He has great impulsion from behind with a rhythmic, elastic stride.
He's extremely athletic and light on his feet. Koney has the looks and contemporary style of today's colored sport horse. This talented colt will do quite well in the show ring!

Training

******CURRENTLY w/ AMANDA MILLER of MILLER EVENTING******

"Koney" had 60 days basic ground training with Bright Horizon Show Horses during the Winter of 2006/2007. This growthy colt was taken slowly so as to lay a firm foundation without pushing. This gelding is very willing with an inquisitive and pleasant nature. He has lovely, cadenced, gaits with a beautiful scopey jump. He is soft and responsive on the longeline. He willingly wears a saddle & bridle during training sessions and
has never offered to buck or fight. He has been bit up with side reins,
which he accepts readily without mouthiness. He's a fast study and is extremely light
to ground drive. Koney trots ground poles and cavelletis while longing / ground
driving and quietly free jumps up to 3'3" in the roundpen.
He was not taken any higher, due to his age, but he definitely has the aptitude
and agility to show a 3'9"/ 4' course once he matures.

Show Record
Presented by Heather Hines, Koney scored well at the 2007 AWS Inspection.
He finished 3rd over stiff competition and earned a Red Preferred Certification.

Breeding
This lovely Hunter / Jumper & Dressage prospect was bred by Spotted Sport Horses located near Chesapeake Bay, VA.. Koney is sired by FEI Dressage Stallion Kalamino - Registered Dutch Warmblood. This palomino stallion is coveted for his gorgeous color, unique breeding, and tremendous stride. Kalamino won the Suitability for Dressageclass during Dressage At Devon - beating out over 50+ horses!
Koney's dam, Impressive Rhythm, is an ApHC registered mare that was originally used for Halter in her early years, and then later as a show jumper and dressage mount.
