Talent, Temperament & Potential in One Package

From the moment he stepped into the world, Black Ice has had that aura — you sense there’s more than meets the eye. He carries the correct lines and substance, but it’s his manner, his rideability, and that extra spark that make him more than just “another prospect.”

With Belrieve Ice Queen as his dam (3* eventer, 1.30 m showjumper) and Black Jack IXE (Australia representative at WEG 2022) as his sire, his pedigree speaks of performance. But lineage alone doesn’t win hearts — it’s what he does with it.

What Makes Him Special

✨ Elegant Movement & Jumping Scope
He offers a flowing, rhythmic trot, and when you see him over a fence, his back end expands, his bascule unfolds, and he lands as gracefully as he left. There’s natural elasticity there, hinting at a bright future in sport.

🧘 Stellar Temperament & Trainability
He’s been handled in all the key ways (trim, float, groom, catch, hard-tie) and shows a calm confidence doing so. He doesn’t fret about time off — he doesn’t need lungeing to reestablish. For his age, that kind of temperament is gold.

🏇 Balanced Between Blood & Brains
His TB heritage gives him the “blood” many riders want; his nature gives him the brains. We believe he’ll suit a broad rider base (with training), from ambitious amateurs to juniors aiming to go further.

Under Saddle & Further Training

He’s been lightly backed and ridden, and has been straight forward since the get go. He’s not a finished product (given his age), so he will thrive under a progressive, consistent program. He’s the kind of horse who rewards patience.

No lunging required after short breaks — he keeps the same attitude from where you left off. He’s ready for the rider who wants to partner up and chart a trajectory together.

On Pedigree & Origin

• Dam: Belrieve Ice Queen — competitive 3* eventer / 1.30 m showjumper — proven in both disciplines

• Sire: Black Jack IXE — represented Australia at the 2022 World Equestrian Games (ridden by Billy Raymont); praised for temperament and correctness

We strongly believe his bloodlines, coupled with his natural attributes, make him ideal for either eventing or jumping, especially for a rider who values character and progression.
