Champ is a very loving and extremely sweet horse. I personally rode him at two different close trips to southern part of Germany (he easily cleared over one meter in my presence, I never jumped that high with him, I have to look for the video clip). I flew him To Southern California Dec of 2019, then we moved to Sanford Florida in July of 2020. I was taking classes in a local equestrian barn close to our home. In Aug of 2021 he got sick with EPM, I took him to Peterson and Smith Hospital in Ocala for treatment. They put Champ on Protazil, I went through a full course then a maintenance dosage for another 4 months. I also leased a 5 acre land close to our home and got him a companion goat and then a young TB as a companion horse (as my doctor at Peterson hospital told me goat is not enough for his loneliness) I rode Champ for the last time (prior to the recent one) close to two years ago. Champ was checked for neurological exam total of three times. Last one was two weeks ago and my doctor said, his last exam had the best results of all three. She also recommended to go back on two times a week Protazil if I would like to avoid any relapse of EPM. The video that is included is the very first ride I had with him (7 days ago) after two years not ridden (by any one). I am 69.5 years. I believe Champ has higher potential with a younger rider, I will work with Champ and will do my 2nd, third and so on riding with him while he is for sale. I am not a professional rider, but during my 55 years of on and off riding, I have found there is no guarantee with any live-stock, so I cannot guarantee anything with Champ except look for papers and records. If interested, please contact me and you can meet and ride Champ https://www.youtube.com/shorts/QXljl3b3Am0
