We import cherry-picked Iberian horses to the UK to bring on and compete. We value good temperament, obedience and manners highly, alongside smooth, Hispanic paces, good training and uphill movement.
We also occasionally source purebred Friesians, selected for their superb temperaments, floating paces.
At Dovecote Stables, we aim to acclimatise all our imported horses before selling on. This involves getting them accustomed to a British stableyard routine, having feet and teeth checked and treated if needed, hacking them alone and in company, turning out all horses including stallions (in a round pen initially), competing BD and fully preparing them for private owners.
Exceptional stallion by Quovadis. Compact and
well balanced with three excellent paces. Approx 15.1 hands, grey 5yrs
registered with APSL. Working well over coloured poles showing a bold athletic
jump. Good to shoe/ travel /hack out on own or in company– this horse has
outstanding potential in any discipline or activity, and in capable hands is a
true cross discipline competition prospect. Excellent pedigree as potential
sire. Veiga bloodline.
