He can tote around a pre-short student, and step into the children's or pony hunters on the same day.

Legally Blonde - "Savannah"
Arguably the best horse ever. Anyone who has gotten a chance to ride Savannah adores her. She is the most forgiving and quiet horse to learn on.

Savannah is the perfect confidence booster - from learning to ride, to showing in the pleasure, hunters, and equitation, Savannah can do it all.

London
London is a laid back OTTB gelding with experience in the hunt field as well as the show ring. He is a true schoolmaster that would rather plod along in any gait than re-live his race days. London is a wonderful option for horse showing, and is well educated on the flat making him a fun ride at home.
