Buster – A True Gentle Giant
Registered Clydesdale Gelding | 17hh | 4 Years Old

Although only four years of age, Buster possesses the wisdom and steadiness of a much older horse. A fully registered bay Clydesdale gelding standing at an impressive 17hh, he is a calm, dependable presence who brings confidence to every rider he meets. His quiet temperament, impeccable manners, and forgiving nature make him an exceptional choice for novice, nervous, or mature riders looking to enjoy their equestrian pursuits at a relaxed pace.

Currently working in a riding school, Buster is regularly ridden by individuals of all abilities—from competent beginners to more advanced riders. He is incredibly steady and never reacts adversely to rider mistakes; if a rider loses balance or a stirrup, he gently returns to a walk without hesitation. Buster is best described as having “more whoa than go,” making him a safe, thoughtful, and patient partner both in and out of the arena.

While Buster is still relatively green in the school, he is eager to learn. Though new to poles and certain ridden exercises, he approaches each new task with a genuine willingness and calm disposition. He is not spooky or reactive—just still developing his understanding. As a blank canvas, he offers the perfect opportunity for a more experienced rider to guide his progress and help shape his education. With time and consistency, he shows promise in working in a soft outline, he is developing good balance, lateral movement, and responsiveness to aids. He is also willing to pop a small fence or log with quiet enthusiasm.

Buster hacks out confidently alone or in company and is entirely unfazed by the most challenging environments. He remains calm when faced with heavy traffic, including buses, tractors, lorries, and large agricultural machinery. He will wait patiently at roundabouts or traffic lights and never reacts with fear or tension. On open ground, he stays composed at all paces, whether leading, following, or riding solo. He never pulls, rushes, or attempts to overtake—even when returning home.

His exceptional manners extend to every aspect of handling. Buster is easy to catch, groom, bath, load, clip, and handle for the vet, dentist, and farrier. He currently lives barefoot but has previously been shod and is comfortable with either. He stands quietly for long periods without any restraint, happily enjoying being groomed and pampered. Children regularly lead and handle him without issue, and he will calmly stand at the mounting block until the rider is comfortably in the saddle, regardless of how long it takes.

Buster is a genuine confidence-giver who can be left unridden for weeks or even months and still be safe and consistent when brought back into work. He is incredibly low maintenance.He has never suffered from laminitis, sweet itch, sarcoids, or lameness, and has passed all annual riding school inspections with flying colours (equivalent to a Stage 2 vetting).

He currently lives out at night in a large mixed herd and stabled during the day but is equally content stabled or turned out full time, he is happy to be stabled / turned out solo, he is not clingy at all, he absolutely loves people and attention and adores a cuddle. He is quiet, independent, and never causes trouble in the field or stable. Buster could excel at low-level competition, fun rides, beach rides, or simply continue to be a safe and enjoyable hacking partner.

This is a heartbreaking sale, as we regularly rotate our riding school horses to offer them the chance to experience one-to-one private homes. Buster is truly one in a million, and he deserves a five-star home where he can continue to be appreciated for the wonderful horse he is.

Ollie is a 15h section D cross. Beautiful looking palomino gelding.

Been in the same home since he was a foal. Started his riding education late and it has not been consistent. He started out well and came on nicely but as he's learned more he's gotten more opinionated.

He needs consistent work to bring him on to his full ability and I cannot do that for him. Not a novice ride, he's been with Sean Hardy doing some intensive training to get him working and ready to go to his next home.

He has done a novice show and did Windsor sponsored ride last year, where he behaved beautifully. Has popped a small jump but hasn't done much formal schooling, we mostly hack out.

Lives out all year. Good for the farrier and the dentist. No injuries or dental issues that are known. Will load and travel alone, although hasn't done it that often. Ollie needs someone who is willing to carry on his education and really make him shine.

Emoji is looking for a capable individual who wants to enjoy dressage with a super flashy horse, who loves getting into their zen, schooling and learning new moves, has a lesson with their dressage coach and then pops out to compete at the weekends.

He loves the dressage work. Currently competing at Elementary and more than capable of working up the levels.

He is approx. 16hh, 13yo young man looking for someone who has more time for him and his chosen dressage career than I do.

He is a pleasure to have on the yard, barefoot, good for the farrier. Ticklish to clip. Nappy to hack alone. Perfect to load.

Bee has proven herself to be fantastic in all disciplines.

I have owned Bee for the past 5 years. During this time, I’ve competed her in dressage (affiliated and unaffiliated) and showjumping (unaffiliated and affiliated with her previous owner).

My main passion is trial hunting which Bee absolutely excels in. She is happy to be anywhere in the field and is a pleasure to gate shut on. She could be described as a perfect hunter. She will jump anything that is in her way, hedges, ditches, gates.

Bee is easy in all ways, both on the ground and when mounted; she is happy around farriers, vets, dentists, and good to be clipped. Will travel happily in both a trailer and lorry.

She would suit a mother daughter share, or any child looking to participate and/or compete in PC, hunting activities with a competent rider. She is excellent in traffic, seen through us having to cross the A350 daily.

Bee allowed me to have my dream and ride my pony to Prom showing her level of safety.

This is a sad sale and is purely due to me going to Uni. Endless reference available. More photos and videos available to.

• Experienced, well rounded, gentleman of a horse. Loveable and easy to care for in all ways
• Great with people, children, animals and other horses

Stunning 2012 registered ISH (green book). Full history known including breeder.

Sad sale of a good friend due to change in personal circumstances and work commitments, no fault of his own.

Previously a Hunt Masters horse, hunting extensively and successfully in Ireland, which he loved. Since coming to live with us 2 1/2 years ago, he has been professionally reschooled with the help of our UKCC level 2 accredited Coach who has worked with us from the start. He would now be suitable for other disciplines as well as hunting or equally would suit someone just looking for the quiet life like us.

Max is eager to please his rider, forward going, listens well to aids as well as voice and is a quick learner. He can be tense/sensitive at times, however he doesn't do anything naughty. He's just a worrier and therefore needs an experienced and sympathetic rider.

He has beautiful paces, is a bold jumper and hacks out alone or in company. Very well behaved and not easily spooked by loud noises or unfamiliar objects ( only wary of HGVs on road).

Max is a gentleman on the ground, loved by all, good for farrier, vet, dentist etc, loads easily and travels well. He is not a big fan of the clippers but will stand, just needs lots of reassurance. Lives out or in but prefers out as much as possible. Occasionally harder to catch but easily persuaded with patience.

Up to date with vaccinations, worming, dentist, farrier etc (currently without shoes but all 4 worn in the past).

Previously passed 5 * vetting on purchase Jan 2023, no health issues and open to all vetting.
Trial facilities include indoor/outdoor school with jumps. Other facilities can be arranged on request.

Tack and full wardrobe items also available separately.

Hanson is an absolute dream to have around, he is super to bath, clip, shoe, dentist, load, travel.

He has spent most of his life in a hacking/ riding school home. Since I’ve had him we have had so much fun. We have been out to hound exercise multiple times and he thoroughly enjoys this! Very relaxed, calm, will go at the back, and goes in a snaffle. He stands quietly at the pub whilst I have a drink or a bowl of chips!

He has been out XC schooling a few times and loves this! He’s popped 1.25 hedges with ease! He is not spooky or scared of Any ditches or timber. He has done a little show jumping but it’s really not my thing, although he always wants to please.

He hacks alone or in company and in the HEAVIEST of traffic, he doesn’t bat an eyelid. He is 100% in open spaces.

I don’t have a school at home so we regularly ride in the fields at home or hack out. I am always chucking him on the box and heading off to arena / XC hires and fun rides.

He’s got lovely clean limbs, nice conformation and good feet. He has no vices or medical issues.

I am looking for a home that wants to crack on and have fun! He is ready to go and make someone really happy. An ideal home for him would be a hacking / hunting home, or someone who wants to put a bit of time into his schooling because he could be a really cool event horse with some time!

He has never bucked, reared, spun, or bolted. I would say he is suitable for a decent novice!

Quality Irish Draught Mare by Scrapman – 16.3hh, 10yo, Liver Chestnut

Lovely, big-moving Irish Draught mare with exceptional breeding and presence.
• Schooling: Three balanced paces, works nicely in an outline.
• Hacking: Hacks alone or in company. Confident in all traffic, including motorway bridges, pushbikes etc. Needs a confident rider when hacking alone as she can start a little spooky.
• Experience: Has been on numerous fun rides, riding holidays, hound exercises, and hunt rides in large groups. Happily stays away either stabled or turned out alone.
• Cross Country: Absolutely loves it! Bold, scopey jump – happily pops timber, hedges, ditches, and straight in/out of water.
• Other: Loves a gallop on the beach, stands all day to be groomed and bathed. Good to catch, load, clip, and shoe. No lumps, bumps, or vices.

She is a forward, switched-on ride, so not suited to a complete novice, but will give a competent rider lots of fun and confidence.

• 90 BD points at Prelim and Novice in not many outings, now working at Elementary
• Potential to be superb at any job but also happy just to have a laid back life at home

Lovely lady owner or family home is sought for our much loved Tango. We bought Tango as an un-started 4 year old, have done everything ourselves quietly and given him lots of time to grow and mature, so he is physically very strong and sound, and low mileage for his age.

He works very correctly on the flat and always tries to please, his dressage is established at Novice level and he is ready to go and do some Elementaries now, if dressage is your bag. He would easily train up the levels and the judges love him. His colour is extremely eye catching too.

He has been well placed at the BD Associated champs, BRC Dressage qualifiers and champs, and Trailblazers. I have deliberately kept his BD outings minimal as he would easily gain too many points to remain eligible for the "fun stuff" that we like to do.

We never planned to sell Tango therefore I didn't do any jumping until he turned 7 (last year) so that he had finished growing as I don't believe in jumping horses on young legs! He does love to jump and will happily pop round 80 and 90 tracks, he has the ability to do much more as he he gains experience and confidence.

He has completed a couple of baby one day events and been excellent, placing second at each, and also done a bit of unaffiliated show jumping. I have done many show jumping and xc clinics with him last summer so it wouldn't take much effort to get him out eventing etc. He would also be plenty smart enough to do working hunter classes.

This is a sad sale due to lack of time and our circumstances so he will only go to the best home we can find, or stay with us and take some time off, as he is one in a million.

An absolute pleasure from the start.

Masses of videos inc flextion tests/trot ups walk rounds etc. she has hacked in the worst of traffic, stands as trains go by, xc schooled, unaf showing, beach rides in company, perfect to deal with on the ground impeccably mannered, travels and loads perfectly.

• Excels at hacking, fun rides and hunting
• Nice allrounder who has done some jumping, xc and pony club at low level
• Lovely quiet temperament

Blackie is the ultimate leisure/pleasure all-rounder with a golden temperament. He is offered for sale on behalf of his owner who’s circumstances have sadly changed leaving no time for him. He is a 15h 5 year old (going on 10!) black Irish cob gelding. He is a real stunning quality stamp who catches the eye where ever he goes. He is gorgeous inside and outside to match and will make someone a horse of a life time for sure. He has good conformation, clean limbs and straight movement. He is such a desirable type as he is a great size for everyone to ride from children to teenagers and adults alike; he would be perfect for a mother/daughter share or family horse for everyone to enjoy. He really excels as a pleasure horse to take on sponsored rides, happy hacks, horse holidays, beach rides, and to do low level riding club on. And best of all he is super safe and very genuine and honest with a quiet gentle temperament.

Blackie is super to hack, he has done more hacking in company due to his owner’s preference but he does also go alone. He has done lots of hacking in groups and trekking through the country side on an easy rein. He is very sensible in open spaces and will happily canter at the back of the group without getting strong or competitive. You can drop you reins on him in canter and he won’t run away, in fact quite the opposite. He is great with traffic and hacks straight out onto a busy through road where traffic goes flying past him. He is super with arctic Lorries and tractors passing him too. He is a lovely medium to ride when out hacking which makes him a real pleasure to ride. He has been on lots of pleasure rides which he really does excel at, he gives other horses confidence as he is such a calm influence. He is so much fun on pleasure rides and always makes you smile and have a good ride. He has been on beach rides where he is always fantastically behaved and loves the water. He would be the ideal type to take on horse holidays and enjoy hours of exploring together as he is super comfy too and relaxed in new places. He has also hunted in Ireland with a 13 year old girl where he proved safe and steady so would also suit a hunting home. He would also excel in a trekking centre.

Blackie has good basic schooling established with lovely natural paces. His paces are very smooth and comfortable. He is a steady ride in the school and does need some leg from his rider to keep him going. This makes his rider feel very safe and confident. He has been ridden by novices as well as more competent riders and adapts well. He has also been ridden by children and really looked after them. He is snaffle mouthed for everything with a lovely light mouth. He is very forgiving and doesn't mind if his rider loses balance or misses a beat, he will just slow down and let you catch your balance. He is a basic walk, trot and canter in the school, can sometimes get the wrong canter lead on one rein as he is more used to cantering in straight lines on a hack. He has also just learnt walk to canter which he does very well so he is very willing and trainable. He is alos starting to work in a nice outline. He could easily school up and do some dressage as his paces are good and he has a lovely rhythm. He would suit a wide range of riders from competent novices through to more experienced riders that just want a straight forward easy going ride that they can pick up and put down as he doesn’t require daily riding to keep sane.

Blackie enjoys his jumping. He is very honest and genuine to jump, he looks after his rider and will happily just trot in or equally come in canter. He doesn’t get at all strong or fizzy, juts super easy and straight forward. He is a very much point and aim type who helps his rider out. He isn’t a world beater but enjoys to have a go and has jumped around 80cm. He jumps fillers and water trays. He has been to some local training shows and unaffiliated comps in Ireland as well as pony club. He has also been xc schooling several times where he was such a good boy.. Hes very confident and jumps everything first attempt including ditches and water. He is a very straight forward ride and takes his rider into the fences nice and confidently but remains steady and very safe and sensible. He would excel at hunter trails as well as being suitable for all low level pony club and riding club activities.

Blackie has a superb quiet temperament. He really is such a nice sweet person who wants to be everyone’s friend and wouldn’t hurt a fly. He is easy to handle and is very polite with manners to burn. He loves to be groomed and pampered. He is such a kind loving boy who is very gentle and calm. He is very good to catch, bath, shoe, load, catch ect. He will live alone or in company and in or out, he just goes with the flow and is bottom of the pecking order. He would make a wonderful addition to a family.

He would make the perfect leisure/pleasure horse for hours of hacking and fun rides with some bits of riding club thrown in for fun. It is really important to his owner that Blackie finds a 10* home where he will be loved and enjoyed.

Passed a 5 stage vetting 2 months ago that can come with him and is open to re vetting. Videos available on request. Based in Ramsey, Cambridgeshire. £11,250.
