Nicole – Marinero
It was in summer 2013 when I saw Marinero for the first time and I already knew that he would be my absolute dream horse.
We rode about 100 km through Catalonia and I fell more and more in love with this gelding. Back at home, I could not get him out of my head. In the fall, I visited him again and made the purchase clear. In spring 2014, the Spaniard arrived very fit and happy in Austria. He settled down within a few days and since he is generally a well treatable horse, he got along with my other horses fastly - on the third day all grazed peacefully on the paddock.
Marinero is an all-rounder - regardless of whether it's riding, dressage, working equitation, orienteering or endurance riding, this horse cuts a fine figure everywhere - for example, in 2014 we won the "newcomer title" in Austrian Distance Riding.
At the moment we just enjoy hacking - even without a saddle no problem - and we do some training for gymnastics. This gelding is just such a straightforward, friendly and intelligent horse who still has a healthy dose of temperament and I really appreciate that. I hope that he accompanies me for a long time by my side and I am afraid of the day when this will not be so, because such a horse will not cross my path twice.
