Peter is a very talented gelding and super sweet. He has been used in dressage lessons and jumping lessons but I do not consider him good for beginners. If you are confident even if you don't know what you are doing he is great to learn on but not the basics of walk trot canter, all the lessons were with people learning dressage with good basics or jumping with good basics. I am selling him a 3rd level schooling for dressage and he has done 1.10 courses but I feel he would be best in a dressage home that would jump him occasionally or just straight dressage. He can get worried at big shows for jumping, dressage is no problem. He does piaffe in hand and has done it under saddle a couple of times. He is older but was started late and is clean legged and has potential for grand prix if you want to train him up further.
