Very Handsome Registered Shire Gelding

Ref #: 399995
  • He has been shown very successfully in hand and last year started under saddle. We've even done some BD.
£9,000 OVNO
  • Shire
  • Bay
  • Gelding
  • 6 years
  • 18.3 hands
  • He has been shown very successfully in hand and last year started under saddle. We've even done some BD.

Would love to find my boy Walton Blue Eyed Boy his forever home

Blue is a very handsome bright bay registered Shire gelding. He will be 6 this year and is a big boy currently measuring at 18.3hh. He is very striking with lots of feather and unique blue eyes.

Blue is good to catch, shoe, clip, travels in a lorry and trailer. Will hack alone and in company. Is not bothered by traffic and being bought up on a farm is used to farm animals, large machinery and dogs.

He has been shown very successfully in hand and last year started under saddle. We've even done some BD.

Due to his size we've taken things slowly. He's done a little bit of everything but wouldn't be suitable for a novice. He is still green and needs more milage. He may be massive but he's a sensitive chap and takes his confidence from his handler/rider.

This is an incredibly hard decision. We have owned Blue from 6 months old but due to my daughter now competing more I just do not have the time he deserves. Would love for him to find a person to give him the one to one and love he deserves.
Home is the most important thing.

Please bear in mind, he really is 18.3hh, he will need a big stable. He is nearly a tonne of horse and he isn't going to go like a thoroughbred or Arab. He is bred to pull.
Any questions please just ask. Have numerous photos and videos.

Unspoilt Rising 4yo 15.3hh Irish Cob Gelding

Ref #: 398522
  • Genuine blank canvas ready to produce.
  • Currently 15.3hh with plenty of growing and maturing still to come.
  • A big, kind, easy going youngster.
£4,950 ONO
  • Cob
  • Piebald
  • Gelding
  • 3 years
  • 15.3 hands
  • Genuine blank canvas ready to produce.
  • Currently 15.3hh with plenty of growing and maturing still to come.
  • A big, kind, easy going youngster.
Patrick is a genuinely unspoilt, rising 4 year old gelding with a wonderful temperament. He is a true “dope on a rope” to lead and handle, and a pleasure to have on the yard. He is currently measuring at 15.3hh and has 10.5” of bone.

He happily lives in or out, and turns out sensibly with both mares and geldings. Patrick has loaded and travelled on a wagon several times without issue, and has been walked out in traffic and seen farm machinery.

Patrick is unbroken, ready for someone to produce their own way. He has a willing nature and steady outlook on life. With his temperament, he could excel as a future allrounder, safe hack, hunter, or even a therapy/RDA type with the right training. He’s a total blank canvas ready for someone to bring out his full potential.

A super friendly, easy going cob who will be a lovely project for someone wanting a genuine youngster with a bright future ahead. Cobs of this size, stamp and nature are increasingly hard to find. Patrick combines height, bone and presence with an exceptionally kind, easy going outlook.

Photos don’t quite capture him, and you’ll need to look past the winter woollies, but he’s going to mature into a seriously smart cob.

DO YOU HAVE A HORSE OR PONY SUITABLE FOR THE RDA?

WANTED ON LONG TERM LOAN / PURCHASE
Ref #: 249896
  • If you think your equine has what it takes, please contact one of the groups below
  • If you think your equine has what it takes, please contact one of the groups below

One of the main issues that RDA groups face is finding an Equine to suit the needs of the participants in their group.

We are regularly contacted with offers of Equines that are ‘the ideal RDA horse or pony’ when actually what is ideal for one group may not be for the next. We are trying to move away from the stereotypical view that RDA Equines are elderly and somewhat static, our horses and ponies need to be fit, healthy and athletic to cope with the lifestyle in an RDA group.

They can range from smaller, forward going ponies to weight carrying cobs and can take part in a range of disciplines from Riding to Carriage Driving, Vaulting to Show Jumping and Endurance.

If you contact an RDA Group about your Equine please be prepared to fill in an Equine Initial Interest Form which will ask you many questions about your horses’ temperament, health history, experience and lifestyle. Many groups will prefer to have an equine on trial to make sure they are suitable for the job.

For long term loans and purchases they will also be required to have a Pre-Purchase Examination.

If you think your equine has what it takes, please contact one of the groups below.

Super Safe / Confidence Giver / RDA

Ref #: 399653

  • Mare
  • 8 years

  • Kind, Genuine, Wonderful Temperament
  • Cracking Allrounder / Happy Hacker / Weight Carrier

The Ultimate Confidence Giver

Reenie is an exceptional 15.2hh 8 year-old Cob mare who offers the rare combination of safety, strength, experience, and a heart of gold. She is kind, bold, dependable, massive weight carrier, ideal for a wide range of riders – from complete beginners, nervous adults and children to more experienced jockeys who prefer a calm and steady ride.

Reenie is beautifully put together and has been there, done that, in every sense. A calm, considerate and willing mare, she is the definition of safe and steady. She has more woah than go making her a perfect mount for riders who want to enjoy their riding at a relaxed pace without compromising on ability or responsiveness.

Ideal for Beginners, RDA, All-Round Riders

Reenie has worked extensively in a professional riding school environment for the past 2.5 years, and she has excelled with every level of rider, from total novices to advanced. She is also a firm favourite for RDA (Riding for the Disabled Association) and special requirements sessions, both under saddle and during stable management and therapy activities.

She has experience in flatwork lessons, both private and group, as well as participating in our in-house showjumping and cross-country competitions. She is confident over coloured and rustic fences and has a bold, careful jump. She would easily compete in showjumping, cross-country, working hunter, one-day events and hunting.

Reenie also absolutely loves to hack out and does so safely and calmly. She will happily hack alone or in company and has been exposed to the heaviest, fastest-moving traffic imaginable. She is completely unphased by buses, lorries, farm machinery and all types of vehicles. She remains safe and steady in all environments and does not rush or pull, even in open spaces or on the way home, you can gallop her across open fields with loose horses running along side her, then immediately pull her up and allow her to walk on a long rein or ask her to stand while horses run around her, she is most definitely not sharp, spooky or spiny.

She has been truly exceptional during her time on the riding school, she is unbelievable forgiving when rider lose their balance, struipps or have a bad stride into a fence, she always takes care of her riders, her substantial build, with a leg in each corner, combined with her calm disposition, sure-footedness, and gentle nature, gives even the most nervous riders the confidence to progress and excel. She will stand patiently at the mounting block for as long as needed, without moving an inch. I can honestly say she has absolutely no quirks, negative or marish traits.

Although she is happy to go at a quiet steady pace, she is also responsive to the leg and has three beautiful balanced, steady paces. For more experienced riders, she will work into a nice outline with enthusiasm and energy, always staying calm and sensible, she has NEVER bolted, bucked, reared, kicked or bitten, she is the most loving kind mare you could ever wish to meet. Snaffle mouth with absolutely no gadgets.

She also was broken to drive at 3.5 years of age and participated in a lot of driving activities on the road and cross country, Reenie has got fantastic foundation of driving having been professionally and consistently coached through the steps ensuring she has a full understanding of the driving process, despite her immense strength she remains very soft and light in the hand when ridden, she is not pulley or strong under saddle.

Manners, Temperament, Handling

Reenie has outstanding ground manners. She stands for hours to be groomed and fussed over, with or without a head collar or lead rope. She is never marish or clingy, and she happy living in or out. In the field, she keeps herself to herself and never causes trouble, whether stabled alone or turned out in a mixed herd.

Reenie has a history of excellent health and has never had laminitis, sweet itch, sarcoids, or any lumps, bumps, or unsoundness. Full veterinary history from birth, she has only had 2 owners.
She is currently barefoot with strong, healthy hooves and is equally happy to be shod. She is excellent to bath, catch, great to load and travel, fantastic with the farrier, vet, and dentist.

She is incredibly low maintenance, requiring no daily work. She can have weeks or even months off and return to ridden work without any fuss. She maintains her condition year-round on a simple diet and is easy to manage in every way.

She passes our riding school annual Licence Inspection, which is the equivalent of a Stage 2 vetting.

A Truly Special Mare

Reenie is a rare gem. She is the perfect choice for someone looking for a calm, dependable, and capable all-rounder. Whether you’re re a nervous adult, a beginner rider, someone looking for a safe happy hacker, or a family looking for a versatile and loving horse, Rennie fits the bill perfectly. She is a genuine schoolmistress who provides confidence and enjoyment in every ride and will give her next owner years of pleasure.

Why Is She for Sale?

This is a heartbreaking sale. As part of our regular stock rotation, we give our riding school horses the opportunity to move on to private homes every two years so they can enjoy one-on-one attention and new experiences. Reenie is ready to bring joy to her next rider and deserves the very best home. She has been truly exceptional.

Additional Photos and videos are available upon request.
