She also trots with a lot of suppleness, she easily does leg yielding and has a lot of balance. The canter is very nice uphill, she shows a very nice silhouette and does not need any speed. She takes a lot of bottom and finishes the jump very well. In addition, this mare was very well presented. ”

We have seen a very sympathetic presentation. ”
