Notes

Balou is a 2009, 17h Dutch Warmblood gelding by the renowned Balou du Rouet. He is the definition of a true three-ring horse, with extensive show experience in equitation, hunters, and jumpers. Balou has competed up to 1.15m in CET Medal classes, shown at the Canadian Indoor Championships (The Royal Winter Fair) in the 3’6” Junior Hunters, and has mileage in 2’6”–3’6” Hunter Derbies, Low Hunters, and jumper divisions. His favourite job is navigating the technical turns of a derby or medal course. He has been showing in the 2’6-3’ heights for the past year and it’s likely most appropriate for him currently to help him continue to have a career for many more years.

Not only is Balou beautifully bred, he is also kind and incredibly versatile. His calm, affectionate nature makes him a barn favourite, and you won’t walk past his stall without him poking his nose out for attention. At home, he is an excellent teacher. He’s well broke on the flat, has a reliable lead change, and is brave to the jumps — he never looks at the fences. He does require some show preparation and will be best suited to a home with a consistent professional program, as that’s what he’s always known.

Balou is being offered for sale due to his owner’s family and career time constraints. He is a special horse looking for his next person to enjoy everything he has to offer. Professional inquiries preferred . Located in Ontario.
