Frizzy Punchbowl

16.1hh | 6-year-old (2019) | Pure Bred Irish Draught

Sire: Devils Punchbowl

Dam: Frizzy View

Frizzy is an honest, willing young horse with a genuinely lovely temperament. He is eye-catching and has plenty of raw potential, showing promise across a variety of disciplines. He works in three rhythmical, balanced paces, with an especially impressive canter.

He has popped a range of small fences and shows enthusiasm for his jumping. Out hacking, Frizzy is excellent both alone and in company, and is confident taking the lead—often guiding younger horses past unfamiliar sights. He is accustomed to different types of traffic and takes everything in his stride.

He has attended schooling outings and is now ready to continue his education with some low-level competitions or local shows.

On the ground, Frizzy is kind and easy to handle - good to catch, shoe, clip and a pleasure around the yard. However, he is a young, green horse and therefore requires a capable, experienced rider to bring out his potential and continue his education correctly. He is versatile enough to appeal both to an ambitious rider and to someone seeking a special horse to develop a long-term partnership with.

Frizzy is a pure bred, DNA tested, Irish Draught and has excellent breeding which is reflected in his quality.

This is a very sad sale as his owner has switched to western riding. Only the best of homes will be considered.

Ajax is a one in a million kind of horse, with his beautiful blue eyes and puppy like temperament you'll never find another quite like him. Ajax is an old soul in a youngsters body, he'll give you his all and never let you down. He's only for sale as he isn't going to be quite big enough for me, otherwise he'd stay with me forever! 

He's one of the few youngsters that I trust implicitly, he's never mean or dangerous - his idea of going fast is a beautiful trot! He was lightly backed in August and has been produced very slowly with lots of breaks for growing, and has taken to being a ridden horse like a champ. He may be a little cob but he can move better than some dressage bred horses - his trot is a real treat to see! Ajax has also shown a beautiful shape over a very small free jump.

Ajax is currently on his winter break before he turns 4 so is priced accordingly, the more he does the more expensive his price tag will get! He is brilliant for the farrier, vet and dentist and will stand for hours being brushed, absolutely no vices - he's the sweetest most affectionate boy around!

Due to his age I will not be selling him to any novices/inexperienced or anxious owners, he may be a total sweetheart but he needs somebody who will help him develop into the best horse he can be! His new home has to be perfect for him as I'm not in a rush to sell

16hh | 2020 Irish Cob Gelding

Tom is looking for a new home through absolutely no fault of his own. He was bought in June (with a clean 5 stage vetting). Unfortunately nerves have got the best of current owner.

He’s a sweet, genuine boy who naturally takes his confidence from his rider. He needs someone who is carefree and happy to kick on, give him guidance.

Tom originally came over from Ireland and has been well handled. On the ground he is a joy — friendly, polite, loves attention, and will stand all day to be groomed or fussed. Good to load, catch and bath.

Under saddle, Tom shows all the promises to be a fantastic all rounder, whether you want a dressage or show partner or a horse to go have fun on and go hunting! He has correct flashy paces. He has lovely movement and is keen to learn.

He’s ridden in a snaffle and has a naturally willing attitude, he has it all there just now needs to go out and show off!

He hacks alone and in company, has seen all sorts of traffic, and is sensible in open spaces.

He hasn’t jumped since being purchased, but previously enjoyed it and was bold and honest when he went XC schooling before his sale.

Tom will make someone a really rewarding partner — he’s safe, sweet, and tries his best, but he’s young and needs a confident rider who can support him and help him continue developing.

Not suitable for complete novices owing to age.
Lots of videos available on request.

This horse literally loves his own company - will stable alone by himself without a single fuss

Little schooled due to his age - schools inside or outside and not a spooky type

Travels in a lorry no issues (not travelled in trailer so can’t answer that)

Bought for myself but he’s just not sharp enough.

He really is the coolest man ever - great to clip, bath, shoe , face being done the lot

On a big livery yard and doesn’t care about being left alone or anything

Can be sold with his tack and a selection of rugs

I’m only selling as he’s just to quiet for me personally

Has been shown and travelled with no issues - he’s not a type that needs working in - he’s just the coolest and calmest of boys

He’s an amazing boy and needs to be treated as such, he loves his field time and stable time

CODEY 16.2hh Full Irish Draught By Luke SkyWalker Grey Gelding – 6 Years Old

An absolute gentleman and true all-rounder, this stunning 6-year-old full Irish Draught gelding is beautifully put together, boasting lovely conformation and a huge, expressive step for a Draught. He’s a real head-turner with presence and quality.

Schooling very well on the flat, he shows the talent and movement to go far in dressage or showing. Over fences, he’s brave, honest, and straightforward — has schooled show jumps and arena eventing fences with ease. Point and go type: you kick, he goes. Always careful, never silly. He has competed at local hunter trials where he just skipped round happily behind.

Out hunting, he’s an absolute dream. Hunted in Ireland and the UK with both foxhounds and bloodhounds — impeccably mannered, sensible, and reliable. Equally happy leading, following, or holding the gate. A novice could safely ride him in the field, yet he’s bold enough to take on the bigger country. Would make a brilliant hunt service horse. Doesn’t get bothered by other horses — can lead or be led over fences.

He’s just one in a million — genuine, versatile, and easy in every way. Everything we’ve asked of him, he’s taken in his stride. Good enough to produce further in any sphere, but kind and uncomplicated enough to be enjoyed by anyone.

If you’re looking for a quality Irish Draught with manners, movement, and a heart of gold — this boy is the real deal.

The kindest mare you will ever meet who is really coming into her own.
15.2hh 5yr old reg ID x cob by King of Mourne.

Jessie is a very kind, sweet horse who people cannot help but fall in love with. Not only is she beautiful to look at, very nice short coupled conformation, big uphill paces she also has the best personality a horse can have.

Not at all marish, she turns out with mares, geldings or alone, excellent to catch, load, shoe, bath, in and out of the stable and is just an absolute pleasure to have around.

Jessie improves every time under saddle, schooling nicely in all 3 paces and learning some basic lateral work. She’s intelligent and a quick learner, however she wouldn’t suit a novice rider as still has so much to learn herself although hasn’t bucked, reared, napped or done anything out of line.

We have popped a few fences which she seems to enjoy, she always has a go and never says no.

Jessie hacks alone or in company, she’s excellent in traffic, hacks over the M62 and over railway crossings, stands at traffic lights and will hack past a busy school whilst children are playing.

Absolutely no vices, the loveliest horse to have on the yard. Totally clean legged and excellent feet (only shod in front) no blemishes. Would either be hogged out as a cob or would plait as a show hunter.

Up to date with worming, farrier and dentist.

Only a very special home need apply as she really wants a best friend.
