Meet Zappadero, affectionately known as Zapi — a 17hh teddy bear of a horse with a heart of gold and the experience to match. Zapi is the ultimate teacher, confidence builder, and partner for any rider looking to gain miles and success in the jumper ring.

A true schoolmaster in the 1.10–1.15m with mileage up to 1.35m in Europe. Zapi recently took a 14-year-old rider from the 1.0m to her 1.20m debut in a year — and made it look easy. He’s brave, honest, and incredibly forgiving. He always gives 100% and will never stop at a fence. Whether you’re looking to move up or gain consistency in the show ring, Zapi is your guy.

✨ Why We Love Zapi:
    •    Easy in the bridle with a soft mouth
    •    Smooth, rhythmic canter and big stride
    •    Auto lead changes
    •    Adjustable, simple, and straightforward
    •    Brave and careful — but not spooky or overly sensitive
    •    Loves to show and knows when it’s time to win
    •    Always tries hard and wants to please

Zapi is a barn favorite and truly special to us, so we’re looking for a very special lease home.
