Van Cornet Obolensky, Franse sportfamilie, tot 1,60 m

https://youhorse.auction/en/auction/Carlos-vd-Steenovenhoeve-Z-CORNET-OBOLENSKY-x-ROYAL-FEU

The six-year-old bay gelding Carlos vd Steenovenhoeve Z is a very complete and comfortable sport horse that immediately gives his rider a good feeling. He is put together fantastically, moves completely with a big canter and jumps carefully with a good technique and plenty of scope. He makes a high jump with remarkable ease.

Carlos is friendly and calm to handle, has sufficient blood under saddle and is very eager to learn. For a six-year-old he has done relatively little so far, which leaves plenty of room for further development. He has experience up to 1.20m level and, thanks to his comfortable way of riding, quality and attitude, he is also very interesting for the American market. Suitable for the amateur up to and including the professional.
