Chimi is a wonderful gelding with a big step and three lovely gaits. He moves easily off your leg and is really starting to come together in his frame. He is straightforward and enjoys his work. Chimi would make an excellent dressage mount. This past fall he made his hunter debut in the pre-greens (2'3") on a local circuit, and with more mileage, he definitely has the scope to make a nice hunter or eventer. He is quiet on the trails and loves hunterpaces, crosses water and trailers well. He is a very sweet gelding looking for a great home as his owner does not have enough time for him with her work and family commitments.
Chimi is registered Oldenburg Verband (German). His sire Coromino (Oldenburg) and grandsire Corofino (Holsteiner) were well known and bred for their jumping abilities. Chimi was a Premium Foal.
In June 2008 Chimi had colic surgery. No tissue was compromised or removed, it was a simple twist. He has recovered well and does not require any additional care because of it. He is great on pasture board and gets along well with gelding and mares in turn out.
