Gideon has been a Pony Club mount for a 10 yr old girl. They jump, do dressage, and also trail ride. A fabulous high energy horse that has the brains and temperment to suit a child as well as an adult. He was presented at the Curly Sporthorse International (CSI) inspection in July 2004 where he wowed us all with his jumping ability (clearing 4 ft) and was awarded Premium Status and just missed wining Site Reserve Champion by a hair.
