4yo 15.1hh bay gelding. Sire: Coulee Bend Talisman, Dam: by Mossrose Triumphant to make

This little chap comes from a line of foreign breed champions on both the sire and dam side.

He has 3 very balanced, comfortable paces and will make a great allrounder or long distance horse. Loose jumped just the once.

Professionally broken, he is ready for a rest and bring back into full work later in the year. Regrettably for sale due to no fault of his own.

Must go to 5* home with experience in youngsters. More videos on request.

• Irish Sports Horse
• Palomino
• Gelding
• 4 years

• Flashy palomino gelding with rare, performance-oriented breeding
• Backed and hacking out; ready to continue education
• Versatile potential: eventing, showjumping or dressage

Meet Spycatcher – affectionately known as Luca – a striking palomino gelding with exceptional breeding and a bright future ahead. This handsome Irish Sports Horse combines athleticism, balance, and a natural aptitude for learning, making him a truly exciting prospect for a competitive or ambitious amateur home.

Bred for performance and presence, Luca shows the elegant and the metallic sheen of his sire line, while carrying the strength and versatility of traditional Irish Draught bloodlines.

Breeding:

Sire: Xanadu, a metallic golden buckskin Akhal-Teke Sports Horse by Atamekan (Grade I racehorse in Turkmenistan) out of GULARA (Elite-graded by VNIIK, Russia's national Akhal-Teke studbook authority). Now sadly deceased, Xanadu passed on his boldness, intelligence, and lightness of movement. His progeny have excelled across showjumping, eventing, endurance, and showing.

Dam: Bletchley Park, a traditionally bred Irish Draught Sport Horse by the late Knightley Park out of Ballygarris Black Diamond (by Diamond Lad). This dam line boasts rare and valuable blood, tracing directly to the legendary Enniskeane Countess, foundation of several notable stallions including Glidawn Diamond, Diamond Lad, Kildalton Gold, and Pride of Kildalton.

Training & Temperament:

Luca has been professionally and lightly backed before being turned away to mature last Spring. Reintroduced this spring, he is now hacking out confidently on roads and in open fields. He's a forward-thinking, bold young horse who enjoys work and is eager to learn. Not suitable for novices.

He’s been well-handled since birth, easy to catch (usually trots over to greet you), respectful of electric fencing, and good to box, travel, and for the farrier. He’s happy alone or in company and is up to date with vaccinations. As a yearling, he attended local in-hand shows and behaved impeccably. He also has experience being led in-hand through village traffic, showing calmness and curiosity.

He does have a small cosmetic blemish on his front fore, which does not affect soundness and is barely noticeable.

Highlights:

- Flashy palomino gelding with rare, performance-oriented breeding
- Backed and hacking out; ready to continue education
- Kind, intelligent, and playful nature
- Great conformation and strong movement
- Versatile potential: eventing, showjumping or dressage

Luca is now ready for a new home where his talent, presence, and character can be developed to full potential.

• Welsh Section D
• Bay
• Gelding
• 12 years
• 15 hands

• Cheeky, clever and loves to get involved
• Brilliant in traffic, not a spooky sharp sort.
• Loves to hack, alone or in company.

Sec D gelding looking for an experienced home where he will get some proper work and mental stimulation. 

He's a clever boy who wants to do a job, and while he would carry a novice rider most days, one day he will probably make his own entertainment and deposit them. So he's not suitable for a novice, and I won't sell him to someone who thinks they can spin him and make money. 

He's great to handle, load, catch farrier etc. He's brilliant in traffic. Unfazed by farm machinery. He's a snaffle mouth, and loves to hack out alone or in company. 

He hates riding circles in a school, and this is where he's been soured in the past. He will buck sometimes, and certainly if you push him around in a school. He doesn't like it at all. Nobody ever explained it to him properly, and we don't have a school anyway.

He wants to go in a straight line through the countryside, for miles and miles, at any speed. 

He is very sound with no health issues at all. He's been checked for the bucking - it's just him. He has had some bad relationships in past. Haven't we all! I have his full and interesting history, happy to disclose. 

I've had him / know him for years, and we always got on fine with him because we let him do what he enjoys most. However I now have too many horses, and he doesn't have a job with us anymore. If he doesn't sell, I will probably break him to drive as I think he'll be brilliant and he'd love it.

I would love to find him an experienced home, where he can go hunting or do endurance or something similar. He's got a jump in him, but he might get excited and buck if you don't keep him focussed. (We have had him over a small course in a school.) 

He could be perfect for a gutsy teenager, or would make a super little staff horse for a hunt. There's a job for him out there where he can thrive, and an owner who will love him even when he's a knob. 

Don't buy this horse and come back to me when he's bucked you off. Buy him and then tell me what an amazing little hunter he's become.

The right home is vital for this little chap. A decent rider and a bit of work and patience will easily bring out the best of him.

Annabelle - 15.2 6yr old coloured mare

A lovely mare with a kind, trainable attitude, Annabelle has been kindly started and has been shown a bit of the world including xc and sj training off site, local shows in hand, hunter trials, intro dressage and fun rides which she absolutely loves.

She hacks alone or in company happily, good in traffic and used to a farm environment inc tractors, quads, animals etc. Will go first or last, sensible in open fields, goes through water.

She has taken everything asked of her in her stride and will always have a go for you.

She takes you forward but has good brakes and is not joggy, not the sort that needs nagging along.

She works sweetly on the flat, she is responsive to aids but not sharp, spooky or strong. She does have some trotter in her but has learnt to canter well and improves daily as she gets stronger and more balanced, she hasn't been rushed but has a good attitude towards work, she has started some basic lateral work and some walk to canter.

She enjoys jumping and again will always have a go for you, with both rustic and coloured fences, she is currently popping round 65/70cm. She will jump up and down steps confidently too.

A lovely nature, kind and easy on the ground. Happy in or out, alone or in company. She really will be your best friend.

She has good stable manners, good to catch/lead/bath/clip/shoe (currently just in fronts but been shod behind with no issue/loading sometimes takes a moment but a bucket of feed does the job.

She would suit a confident, competent rider to continue to produce her on, she's an older head on young shoulders but is only just 6.

She'd love a family to go out and have fun with, doing a bit of everything. Endurance would also probably be right up her street too as she is forward thinking and independent.

Up to date with everything
No loans/trials etc
She is on sales livery
