Zeus Lightning
2022 16.2 gelding
Tapiture - Kitten’s joy

You can’t get quieter, you can’t get kinder and you can’t get them more ready to go to an obstacle course right off the track. Zeus has a big presence under saddle with a lovely frame, soft mouth, he certainly doesn’t show himself off in hand. But this is a racehorse you can hop on ba****ck, hack around, pop over stuff - he has no spook and questions none of his person’s shenanigans. Perfect for eventing or hunters, perfect junior/ammy type. He will probably jump a course first time you put him to one. Has old splints but no other blemishes. Lovely type to work with and have in the barn. RRP eligible

Where are my Titanic fans??

What a sweet and kind gelding. Perfect for the hunter ring with a lovely flat kneed movement. He has clean legs, no known injuries or issues and no vices. He is very uncomplicated to handle and ride (just like Midnight Getaway).
