CASPIAN FLS - “CASPIAN”
Caspian is currently beginning his primary under saddle training. His activities throughout the rest of this year will include routine groundwork, beginning under-saddle exercises, and ample trail-riding, which we believe helps to build confidence in learning under-saddle aids, as well as learning to navigate various obstacles and environments. We expect Caspian to excel in the hunters.
Caspian will be a lease or purchase option.
