Tall, light-footed and balanced

https://youhorse.auction/en/auction/Treadstone-NIGHTLIFE-VDL-x-CONTENDRO-I

Treadstone is a large horse with a gentle appearance. He is handsome and well-built and performs well over the jumps, showing great commitment. He has a beautiful, upward build and will be comfortable under saddle later in life. He possesses a light-footed canter with remarkably good balance for such a large horse. In our opinion, a fine amateur horse that can also be used in multiple disciplines. A horse with a beautiful presence.
