PHAETON BPF
'Bolero'
Phaeton BPF is a 16h 2016 PRE gelding by Graffiti BPF out of Fenicia LIV, bred in the US by Mary Claeys.
'Bolero' is the kind of horse that every rider wants to ride, and every trainer wants in their barn! Solid and consistent show results through Second Level with scores in the mid-60s. He has been successfully ridden and shown by several amateur riders. Bolero has a lovely, kind, and patient disposition. He is straightforward, safe, and uncomplicated to ride - not to mention exceptionally handsome, turning heads wherever he goes!
He shows good natural uphill balance, adjustability, and ability in the canter. He continues to build scope, suspension, and power in the trot work and has a relaxed and correct walk. Overall he shows good ability to collect, is easy to sit, and is soft in the contact. He is happy to hack out and while still being somewhat young, is reliable in new environments. A solid citizen - I can't say enough about this trusty young horse with plenty of ability for the future. Currently in professional training and starting to school all the elements of Third Level - has just started training flying changes and half steps with no drama. Has been with the same owner since he was a yearling. Owner forced to sell horse of her dreams due to health issues.
Up to date on vet and farrier care. Currently shod. Stands well for vet and farrier, loads and hauls well, no stable vices, sound with no previous injuries or illnesses. Lifetime USDF/USEF registration. August 2023 x-rays on file.

2014, 17.1h bay Oldenburg gelding by Damsey out of a Sir Donnerhall I mare.
I've been getting to know this horse for the past few months and I can't say enough about his temperament and trainability! Fun, fun, fun! Would be a perfect candidate for an amateur to have fun with and bring up the levels. Great work ethic, goofy personality and the perfect combination of sensitive and forward but not hot or spooky. He is tall and elegant but doesn’t ‘ride big’ and is easy to sit. He's really the whole package!
He was shown in the FEI 4 Year Old test in 2018 with scores up to 7.52. You’ll love to ride his fantastic, balanced canter and relaxed, swingy walk. His easy-to-sit trot will be fun to develop and he promises to be a special horse. Now schooling all lateral work and simple changes, shows a wonderful counter canter and is easy in the connection.
Bred by Lloyd Landkamer at Brandywine Farm and from the fabulous stallion, Damsey owned by Leatherdale Farms. Current, clean x-rays on file.
Located at Spring Hill Farm in Duluth, Minnesota just 15 minutes from Duluth International Airport or 2.5 hours from Minneapolis St. Paul International Airport.
$45k, negotiable to a wonderful home.
