I have a 5 yr old Routinier mare that in no way is a hunter. She has WAY too much knee and hock. Why then am I responding? Because she can jump like nobody's business! Rudy puts a good jump on his babies.

I did breed another Routinier out of a TB mare, however he is destined for the dressage ring. He has a lovely, free, swoopy way of going, I could see him in the hunter ring. I had only free lunged him over cross rails one time prior to selling him. He seemed to enjoy it and and was bold.

Both of the Routiniers that I bred, (and a third on the way,) have all had WONDERFUL puppy dog, in your pocket personalities. I adore them both. His owner, Amy, is wonderful to deal with. Lisa
