Beautiful 8-year-old gelding looking for a golden home

I am looking for a golden home for this 8-year-old beautiful gelding with daily free turnout.

He is kept at a dressage riding school and is ridden for dressage twice a week and the rest of the time he is lunged/turned out and taken for walks. He has learned everything (up to beginner flying changes) in dressage, but due to too little daily free movement (he is stabled), he is sometimes stiffer/more irregular. Full scans were taken this spring and mild osteoarthritis was diagnosed in the right front fetlock. The vet advises more pasture or paddock time so that he has daily free movement. With this approach, there is no problem. Unfortunately, I cannot provide this myself. He is a fantastic horse and I am sure he can make someone else very happy.

Very reliable horse (has never bucked, etc.) both outdoors and on a hack with loose reins (does not spook easily), has a lot of confidence in the rider. Really enjoys going for hacks. Is ridden in a double bridle for dressage. He requires an experienced rider as well as a light rider on his back.

Is 1.76 m, very affectionate and sweet, no stable vices, used to dogs/cats hanging around. Is very social and reliable and sweet with other horses. Has a passport and is fully up to date with vaccinations, deworming, farrier. Currently no need for shoes. Originally a showjumper (jumps high) and has good Zangersheide papers.

Ps: I am transparent so that you know the conditions under which you will have a lot of fun with him and because I want the very best for him. I only sell to people who are a match with him, who can offer him daily free movement or pasture and take him as a leisure horse (hacking, basic dressage or showjumping). The asking price is therefore a lot lower than the purchase price
