Warmblood Gelding for Sale in Chino Hills, CA
Eletan is a 16-year-old Bavarian Warmblood gelding who is excellent on trail and not bothered by traffic, dogs, kids, or obstacles. We have been doing low level dressage for the past 4 years and he is a fluid, graceful mover and is sensitive to the aids.
He has enjoyed his new part-time career as an equine-facilitated therapy horse.
He is attentive, smart, and loves to learn new circus tricks both in-hand and at liberty. Essentially, he loves to be doing fun things with his person.
His breeding is superb; he was an approved stallion for his breed. Very athletic, he was a 1. 35m competitive show jumper before we switched to dressage.
**He comes with a custom made dressage saddle (a $5600 value).**
I am selling him because I am ambitious about moving to the higher levels in dressage and am in the market for a younger horse who can take me there. I can’t afford two horses, unfortunately.
Known vices: He started cribbing as a 12-year-old which was what inspired me to switch him from show jumping to trail riding, liberty work, and dressage.

About Chino Hills, CA
After the Spanish founded Mission San Gabriel in 1771, the Chino Hills region was used extensively for grazing by mission cattle. During the Mexican Republic era, the hills were used as spillover grazing from such surrounding Mexican ranchos as Santa Ana del Chino and Rancho La Sierra (Yorba). After Mexico ceded California to the United States it was, and still is, a swamp and subject to flooding annually. Most historical dwellings were demolished in the rush to develop the modern city. A local state monument is present in the grass lawn area of the local fire department.
