Sorcha
Misty Sun “Sorcha” 16.1h Irish Sport Horse imported from Ireland in 2024. Sorcha was lightly backed as a three-year-old, hacked and enjoyed as a leisure horse. At the age of four, she was introduced as a riding club horse, participating in all activities from dressage competitions to training clinics and beach rides.
At the age of five, Sorcha started her showjumping (SJI) career proving very careful and reliable, currently jumping 90cm and 1meters with the right attitude and scope to continue to move up to 1.10s.
Sorcha has a super sensible temperament proving to be a barn favorite. She is trustworthy for novice riders taking them around safely, stepping up for more advanced riders.
She has hunted and been XC schooled always being brave and easy.
Good to hack alone or in company.
She has more woah than go ride.
Sorcha is the ultimate genuine allrounder and this is a rare opportunity to see a horse of this ability and temperament.
