He is sensible and very trainable always wanting to please. He has a nice jump, but does like to be forward to his jumps. Jumps SJ and XC.

Good to hack out alone or in company. He is always in a snaffle not strong.

We want the best home for him as he is such a lovely nature. He does have some makes on his legs which comes from racing but is a sound horse and finished his racing career sound.

A really smart little horse. Timmy has a great temperament and loves his work. He has been professionally started in his new career, working away in the arena with three lovely paces and is jumping a little course at home, proving to be a good and careful jumper. Not spooky at fillers etc. He has jumped some logs out hacking.

Timmy has been in training for a very short period of time but he was to too slow! Would be eligible for RoR. He is very laid back, doesn’t get hot and is easy to do. Hacks out alone or in company. Lives in or out. No vices.

Could be the perfect first young horse to produce for a teenager or small adult.

Genuine reason for sale, a lovely horse to have on the yard. 5* home a must.

Videos available on request. Please whatsapp initially and I will call you back - signal isn't reliable at the yard.

Frea is a bright 8 year old mare.She came to me straight from racing ( retired sound) where she had time off to be a horse and settle mentally. Since then she has slowly come into work and become a real yard favourite , showing lots of potential!

She hacks alone or in company! Very good in traffic.Good to shoe and clip etc

She is becoming confident in all disciplines and is proving to be quite the talented little horse . All done in a snaffle.

Well bred in the racing industry if anyone is into that, I'd of had a foal from her if i had the space and time .

Meet Socks!

Socks is a loving, fun and honest horse.

He would be a perfect Mother/ Daughter share. He oozes quality and is correct enough to show!

Socks has raced twice over hurdles, so would be eligible for the ROR series.

Since his last race in January, he has competed in Dressage, getting nearly 69%, he’s s also been cross country schooling and is jumping a course of show jumps.
He competed in his first ROR Novice finishing 2nd, with lovely comments from the judges.
Proving to be level headed, mannerly and has taken it all in his stride.

He’s a real pleasure to have around and wants to please! We’ll keep taking him out competing whilst he’s still with us.

Sock is ready for someone to put their stamp on and enjoy for the summer and beyond.

Maeve is a 4 year old, 16hh thoroughbred mare. Good to shoe, clip, travel etc. ROR eligible.

She has been out to dressage and showjumping and been foot perfect in every way. Hacks alone and in company, never strong or silly (hacked by a novice). Consistently schooling at prelim level and receiving nice comments from judges in her dressage. She has been out showjumping and jumps all fillers etc up to around 80cm. Has jumped logs, brushes etc out hacking and is very bold.

She will make a lovely teenagers horse or RC allrounder type. Can leave her for days and never silly to get back on.

Turned out in a mixed herd but also happy to be out on her own. Never mareish. Has lived out and lived in and never been a problem.

Serious enquiries only please as she truly is absolutely lovely. No novices. Lack of time and vets bill for other horse forces sale.

Super model of a TB. Barney is a 15’2HH 11yo bay gelding. He works very nicely on the flat, with a lovely soft snaffle mouth.

He carries himself in a natural outline with 3 balanced paces. He rides like an overgrown pony and is so much fun. Barney has attended pony club rallies, pony club camps, been on fun rides, he’s cross country schooled, unaffiliated combined training, showjumping and arena eventing.

He has turned his hooves to absolutely everything his owners have asked him to do with a completely genuine and honest outlook on life. He is never spooky or sharp. You could literally ride him anywhere, main roads, huge open fields, country lanes, alone and in company, he’s herded sheep and cattle on the farm.

He really is just a total dude of a horse! Barney would suit someone wanting a super reliable happy, kind and straightforward fun horse for any job, eventing, showjumping, riding club, competent mother and daughter share. He is a saint to do anything with, shoe, box, catch etc. no known ridden or stable vices.

Reluctant sale of much loved horse ‘Molten Lava’. Stunning well built event horse - 16h, 12 yr old TB gelding.

  • 6th Norton Disney Novice 2024
  • 12th Thoresby Novice 2024 (around the 2* course in only his 3rd Novice)
  • 10th Askham Bryan Novice 2023

In limited outings placed at BE100 and Novice. With amateur rider. Will go 2*/intermediate this year. Fit and entered. Ideal candidate for the Exrace horse 2* to be held at Cornbury horse trials in 2025 with a £50000 prize fund.

Lovely movement and able to produce a nice dressage test, much more to come as the season continues. Training Elementary/Medium

Careful and bold jumper SJ (fences down on record reflect riders weak showjumping).

Absolute Xc machine being very bold and genuine. Clear in every XC round (even if the rider misses!) as long as the fence is near him he will jump and he is very quick thinking. Can be strong but up until his last run has always been ridden in a snaffle. A bit change xc in his last run proved to be a game changer and this will allow him to be a lot quicker across country and subsequently even more competitive.

Hacks alone and in company, good in traffic. Prefers being upfront. He would not be suitable for a home that wants to hunt.

He is good to shoe, box, catch, clip.

All history known from 5 years old, retired sound from racing and has been quietly
retrained since 8yrs old.

He is a forward thinking horse and will be fresh if not taken out regularly and in his first run of the season, for this reason he is not suitable for an inexperienced rider. Having said that he does not buck, rear, bronk, nap etc.

Serious enquiries only as this is a hard enough sale.

Bay and beautiful! Meet Dermot, the epitome of an old head on young shoulders!

He was bred in the purple to win, but didn't quite understand the assignment, coming dead last in five out of his six races.

Dermot is a big teddy bear and just wants to be your best friend! He works sweetly in the school and has a fantastically active hind leg - looking at all you dressage divas
He is a responsive ride but never sharp or silly.

He enjoys jumping and is a real trier who doesn't want to touch these coloured poles - his technique is improving every time. Dermot has been to arena hires and a training show, where he was impeccably behaved and jumped two great rounds , proving absolutely unphazed by fillers and water trays.

Dermot hacks alone and in company and is good in traffic. I wish all 4yos were this perfect!

We have recently taken him cross country schooling and he could not have been better, an absolute sweetheart and took everything in his stride.

He is easy to do in every way, and ready to find his new human best friend.

This little horse would suit a competent teenager to produce - I could see him being a fabulous grassroots eventing horse! Equally he would love to just be someone's best friend and would surely turn his hoof to excel in all riding club activities.

  • Exceptionally chilled out gelding. Go to 'gate shutting' horse for hunting
  • Perfect quiet leading-rein horse, ideal for mother with children, riding/hunting/hacking/fun rides
  • Happily live on own in a small yard.

Exceptional gelding, has Autumn Hunted and Hunted all season, very steady, doesn't pull, absolutely nothing nasty.

Despite his young age, he is the perfect leading rein horse. Best suited for a parent with young children out hunting, or a parent/child share, as small build, he would suit a teenager and adult very well. Gate shuts, stands quietly, goes at the back.

Very smart, but very gentle & not fussed about other horses, or small yard set up without companions.

He's been trained exceptionally well in his racing career, only raced a handful of times, flat and hurdles, jumps well and was retired from racing as not fast enough to win and syndicate wanted a winner - we've had him since and have done fun rides, hacking, solo and in company, hunted 30+ days on him, gate shutted on him and done lots of fun things.

He's the sort of horse you can drag in from the field after weeks away, tack up on his own and hack out, and throw him back into the field without a thought - not fizzy or fussed about traffic / horses / dogs etc. Very good with hounds and farm traffic.

Very careful, loads easily, seen lots of ditches and water and bridges and complex hilly terrain!

We ride our horses in Dr Cook Bitless Bridle's, but otherwise he's in a snaffle and is gentle in the mouth. Immaculate stable manners, clean to stable, easy to clip, shoe etc etc.

Priced to sell before I go abroad with work. For sale due to this and my mother’s work constraints - we're having to reduce the responsibilities in the country.

Gitanes is so gorgeous he could easily be turned into an Eventer, or show jumper, or anything your heart desires - he is honest and willing and so gentle, he has a lot of love and life to give and his new home is very important to us.

His Grand Sire is the famous and exceptional Dubawi (Champion sire of 2022 and Seven individual G1 Winners in 2022 inc 2,000 Guineas, stud fee is £350,000) - so he comes from excellent stock. MORE videos and photos on request.

* He has not done much in the way of coloured poles / show jumps, so this would need work on, but plenty of time for him to excel given his age and experience so far.

Please do whatsapp / call me, Rosanna on the number provided. Priced to sell due to limited time to show him, due to work in London.

Priced to sell!!

This absolutely exquisite stamp of a TB is being offered for sale.

Oblivious (Liv) has it all. Wonderful temperament, expressive movement and a clean jump.

As she is 3 she has not been pushed. She has been in training and can still be a racehorse if required.

As a riding horse I can see this mare going far. She has the most wonderful ground covering walk, a trot with plenty of cadence and one of the best balanced adjustable canters I’ve seen in a young horse.

She is ready to produce for age classes next year and be someone’s best friend.

Liv has done a little bit of schooling and been over a few coloured poles but due to age she has not been pushed.

She has hacked alone and in company. Been schooled by a few different people.

Is good to shoe, clip, catch, load and travel.

She is also one of kindest, softest horses I’ve met in a while and really will be your best friend!

She is being offered at a super price. Next year she will be a 5 figure horse.


Must be sold! Offers accepted!
