History

Capricho was bred by Jorge de Moya. He came to Narrawin Stud in late 2010 as a present from Jorge when he disbanded his stud. I don’t really wish to sell this horse and will gladly have him stay here, but would consider selling him to someone special as I don’t have a lot of time for him.

Gaits & Movement

Well gaited and smooth in corto. Potential for fino. Also has a rocking horse canter.

Conformation Notes

Very well put together, tall and strong gelding. Was going to be a herd sire and only gelded due to a retained testicle. Really beautiful horse. For more current pictures, please see his Narrawin Stud Facebook album

Personality

Capricho is great to handle and loves to engage with people. Showing a lot of brio, he is easy to ride, brave and will give me everything and some more. He has been mostly used for trail riding and has proven himself alone and on longer rides in larger groups, where he chews up the grownd like nobody’s business and is so comfortable to ride. He has a solid education with in lateral work and is ridden one handed. He also enjoyed trail obstacles, skill at arms and the garrocha. He is showing a lot of potential in that area. He was very easy to get used to weapons, flags and armour and appeared to enjoy the extra challenge. He is a fun horse to ride regardless of what we decide to do.

Genetics

Capricho is from predominantly Puerto Rican lines. He is a great-grand-son of Bochica on his dam’s side, and on the sire’s side, has Alicante in pedigree.
