Must be bold and confident to hack both alone and in company and good in open spaces. No bucking, rearing or other nasties, I'm too old for that! Don't mind the odd genuine spook or look at something. Will be used for hacking, fun rides, flatwork and pole clinics primarily.

Ideal age between 6-10 or alternatively would consider a youngster (4 years upwards) or something a bit greener that has the potential to be the above with a bit of work, as long as the temperament is right.

Mare or gelding, however nothing too dominant in the field. Also to be ok if another horse is taken out for a short time (there would still be other horses grazing nearby).

No TB's as I am too heavy for them. Need something with a bit of bone that is up to weight (balanced rider and no jumping involved).

Experienced loving home on quiet private yard.

Have a 4 figure budget to buy, or will look at loan or LWVTB. Either way looking for a long term / permanent arrangement.

Will want to have horse vetted. Horse must be fit and in work currently.

My ideal, but will happily consider if its doesn't meet this is a homebred or something that hasn't been passed around and where the medical history is known.

Based in Wiltshire but willing to travel a reasonable distance.

Please message with details in the first instance. thanks
