DESIGNER MI

(De Niro x Aber Hallo 29)

3 year old Designer MI possess an A grade temperament, trainability and ride-ability beyond her age. Designer has three extremely correct paces and equally impressive type and character to match. Designers looks and flashy markings make her an excellent candidate for a future in dressage or showing. Designer would be suitable for a competent amateur looking for a quality and kind young horse to take up the grades.

Designer is incredibly bold, trusting and quiet for her age. She is fantastic to lead, float, wash, rug and handle in every way. Designer currently measures approximately 16hh.

Designer is sired by well renowned international Grand Prix stallion De Niro, who requires no introduction. Her Dam sire, Aber Hallo 29 was an imported Grand Prix stallion while her imported grand dam, For Joy (DE) also competed grand prix.
