Storm Lord (Stormy)
Placed at 90/100cm, and could be a Badminton Grassroots winner!
Really good mover, beautifully light and easy to ride on the flat, good SJ and loves XC. Would excel at Dressage.
He is a lovely person and easy to have around, but needs a knowledgeable competent home.
Eligible for ROR, came out of training 3 years ago.

He has a small melanoma near his jaw - I have had 2 different vets opinions and they both said they didn't think it would be an issue until much later in life - hence only £15k

16.1h 7 year old grey gelding. Max is a lovely Irish sports horse by NPS Supernova.

Over the last year he jumped British Novice and Discovery classes, recently jumping all three days at the Wales and West 3 day June show.

He is bold to a fence and shows a good technique with plenty of scope.

He is a leg in each corner type who has so much quality, he would also be a fantastic working hunter type. He would turn his hoof to anything.

He has been cross country schooling and would be ready to do aim for some Cotswold cups.

He has been hacking around the roads and has seen traffic which can be scary - he takes his confidence from his rider and other horses so not confident enough to go alone yet. Out hacking in fields and woods he never gets silly or stupid in open spaces.

Would suit a very ambitious young rider wanting to produce him further for any equestrian sport .

No novices please as this is a really hard sale for his owners. As much as they adore him and he’s everything his owner wanted he’s proving to be one step too much.

HORACE (DUSTY DAWN)

15.2 Irish Cob gelding, 11 years old. Hacks alone and in company. Has attended arena hires, clinics, sponsored rides, harrier hacks, has hunted previously. Goes in a lovely outline and will produce a very nice dressage test.

Very honest jumping, loves cross country, comes quietly to a fence and jumps up to 1m nicely. More woah than go but will do anything you ask of him. Very kind and gentle nature. Good with dogs, cats, children. Loves his food and to be fussed over.

Good for farrier and dentist, also good to worm and stands quietly for the vet. Loads perfectly and can be taken out alone, does not get stressed or anxious. Lives out 24/7 at the moment but can also be stabled in the winter, happy with either. Very well behaved with lots of horses cantering, you always have brakes. He has never reared, kicked, bitten. Gets on well with other horses.

Would be suitable for a novice, mother/daughter share, happy hacker, first horse or someone wanting to have a bit of fun and do a bit of everything. He is a true confidence builder and will allow anyone to progress with their riding quickly.

Potential to be sold with saddle (Fairfax saddle 17.5”). Premier Equine bridle will go with him, and his rug.

Only being sold as rider is ready to progress onto something a bit more forward thinking. Horace is really the nicest horse, and deserves an amazing home where he will be looked after and loved.

Low 5 figures.

Lots of videos and more photos available.

  • Snaffle mouthed and chilled at all times

Eddie is a real yard favourite and not a lot phases him, he is very used to lots of farm machinery and traffic and general countryside life.

He feels like an old head on young shoulders and it is incredibly easy to forget you are sat on a younger horse, his first outing under saddle was a hunt fun ride, and genuinely provided the most fun day out, he remained snaffle mouthed and responsive with no jogging or silliness the entire day, he waited to be asked to move up to canter and at any time would come back to trot despite what the rest of the ride was doing.

You can not ride him for a week and hop on bareback for a hack, you can lend him to your novice friend for a hack, he will trot over poles and small fences but given his age has not done much in that area.

He is still as I would expect a just turned 5 old to be, green in the school and can find canter on a circle quite hard, however he is a just turned 5 year old draft type and I have not pushed this area and he has done far more hacking and varied education, he can go first or last and is very patient and enjoyable to hold on a pub hack! Very used to dogs running around legs, different riders, and is a pleasure to have on the yard and has a lot of fans, has a beautiful big step and once he is older and stronger would do a lovely dressage test.

Brilliant to clip, shoe, catch.

Based Woldingham, Surrey.

Quality Dressage / Showing / Eventing type

Dakota has the breeding, brain and ability to go far in dressage, but is also proving she has a lot of potential to be competitive in the showing and eventing world too. She is an uncomplicated and enjoyable horse to produce.

- Fidermark x Florestan x Donnerhall x Rubenstein -

16hh 5yo mare with impressive bloodlines, gorgeous conformation, uphill, straight moving paces and a snaffle mouth.

Dakota was professionally backed as a 4 year old and turned away. She was lightly restarted at the beginning of this year and is now fit and ready to be doing more.
She hacks alone and in company out on the lanes where she’s seen and is confident in all sorts of traffic and up on the Quantock hills where she proves she is sensible in open spaces.
She is gorgeous to ride, naturally balanced and uphill with good transitions and a soft mouth. She is bold and genuine to jump and was very sweet and willing to learn on the cross country, popping all jumps, ditches, steps and water happily.

She went to her first show this week and behaved so perfectly, I went by myself and managed easily. She was very calm and confident around the horsebox, ringside, warm up and in the ring. She won the 60cm SJ class.

She has been on a private family yard where she’s been well handled and educated. She is good to load and travels well and is good with the farrier. Easy to catch, bring in and turn out. Lovely on the ground.

Yogi is good to hack out on and off roads and has been alone and in company he is good to load, travel, catch, trim and bath and is a sweet person on the ground who loves fuss and attention.

Yogi has just started to pop over poles and small fences taking everything in his stride.

He is sure to excel at everything he does. A real gem that would suit showing, dressage, jumping , hacking and all round fun home.

We are looking for a lifelong home if at all possible that is happy to stay in touch this is a devastating sale of a very loved homebred, five star knowledgeable home only please.

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.

This lovely mare has a very bright future ahead in any sphere

She would make a lovely dressage horse with fluid paces, or is certainly good enough to become a top show horse

She was backed last year then had the winter off before she came to me

Has been away for some schooling to see different sights, and also attended a clinic with me

She is a very sweet loving mare with a kind temperament

She thrives off consistent work which I am struggling with due to lack of time, therefore is still green in the school

Very handsome Cob X, 15.1, 5years old.

Chestnut 4 whites (virtual matching pairs fronts and backs) and a blaze

Currently on schooling livery with Alec Miles at Fair Oak, Hampshire

Benny is a charming young horse who is easy to do. He is polite in the stable, friendly and curious. He loves a good groom. He ties up well to be tacked up.

At the mounting block he was initially anxious but this has improved.

Benny is good with the vet, has passed recent 5 stage vetting which can be seen and is of course open to your own vet / any vetting. He has had regular worm counts and a clear strangles test.

At his vetting his teeth were done and he has regular physio without issue.

He is polite for the farrier and is currently shod all round.

Benny is confident with traffic and the heavy farm machinery.

In the school Benny is working well and improving everyday. However he is NOT a Novice ride due not only to his age. He is a potential competition horse, very forward, sensitive to the aids. Off the leg and light in the hand. When unsure he can spook therefore he needs a capable rider who will reassure and is quick to praise when he does the right thing.

Benny is a proven Hunter and I'm told he was always well-behaved. Polite with the hounds and other horses, stood quietly when asked at the meet and in the field. He was bold and jumped everything without question.

This is a very sad sale of a truly special little horse who has been the best start and will have a great future ahead of him. Wherever he goes in whatever discipline he's sure to have a bright future. Genuine reason for sale.

Please don't hesitate to contact me via text or a call to ask any questions or to arrange a viewing and see him ridden / ride him. Nice trial facilities.

15.2/3hh 6yo mare

Very sweet and straightforward little horse with no quirks or hangups at all. Extremely easy to have around, perfect manners for all handling, travelling, stands quietly at shows etc

She is out doing BD (Prelim) with 1st and 2nds as well as SJ and arena eventing. She's getting better in her dressage every time out and definitely will go up the levels. She hacks out alone or in company and doesn't get hot in open spaces or with other horses galloping about. Lots of potential and will continue to improve with the right rider, or will happily stay at the lower levels if required.

Eligible ROR championships and has qualified for the regional championships in dressage and the Pet Plan BD champs

BD name "Centrallia"

She has flat feet and thin soles so we shoe her with pads, but she won't pass a vetting as is currently 1/10 lame on a hard circle. However she is sound on a surface and so is ideally suited to someone who wants to do dressage or jump in arenas. Hard ground is not her friend! She is out competing with no issues.

Was £8500 originally but this is vastly reduced in light of the above.

 

Safe, Smart and easy!

Finn is the ultimate leisure/pleasure all-rounder with a golden temperament. He is as safe as they come and gives everyone confidence that gets the pleasure of riding him. He is offered for sale on behalf of his owner who’s circumstances have sadly changed leaving no time for Finn. He is a 15.1h 5 year old (going on 10!) dapple grey fully registered Connemara gelding.

Very well bred with 5 generations pedigree, Nn hoof wall. He is a real stunning quality stamp with such amazing dapples that really draw you to him, he 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 excellent conformation, clean limbs, is blemish free with straight movement. A real show quality stamp who is very correct. He is such a desirable type as he is a great size for everyone to ride from children to teenagers and adults; he would be perfect for a mother/daughter share or family horse for everyone to enjoy. He would also be great for your nanny to go out hacking on. He really excels as a pleasure horse to take on sponsored rides, happy hacks, horse holidays, beach rides, and to do all riding club on. And best of all he is super safe and very genuine and honest with a quiet gentle temperament.

Finn is super to hack both alone and in company. This is what he has predominately done with his owner for the last year. 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 passing him too. He is very confident in his own skin so doesn’t need his rider to hold her hand. He is very calm and sensible in open spaces, he will canter in any order within a group without getting strong or competitive; he doesn't mind being over taken. You can drop you reins on him in canter and he won’t run away, in fact quite the opposite.

He is on the steady side of medium to ride when out hacking so he gives his rider lots of confidence as he isn’t going to run off with you. Equally you don’t have to keep nagging him with your leg out hacking; he is the perfect steady pace. 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, he went to Brancaster 2 weeks ago and even swam in the sea and cantered up the beach no handed, this just about sums Finn up! 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 boy where he proved safe and steady so would also suit a hunting home.

Finn has good basic schooling established with lovely natural paces. His paces are very smooth and flowing. He is a steady ride in the school and does need leg from his rider to keep him going. So he would suit a rider who prefers to kick on rather than pull back. This makes his rider feel very safe and also means that Finn is suitable for nervous/ novice riders as well as more competent riders. He is a real safe steady confidence giver to ride and not the spooky or sharp type. 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; he has never had any dressage schooling put into him as his previous owner wasn’t interested in that. However he could easily school up into the contact with a little work and do some dressage as his paces are good and he is a well-balanced horse. He has also been ridden bare back and was foot perfect and very comfortable. 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.

Finn loves his jumping and makes a brilliant shape. He is very careful both in front and behind. He nicely takes you into a fence and is very honest and genuine to jump. 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 and juts loves to jump. He has been attending training shows and unaffiliated comps at 80/90cm with his owner as well as arena hires and riding club. He has plenty of scope to jump higher tracks.

He has also been xc schooling several times where he was simply amazing. Hes very confident and bold and jumps everything first attempt including ditches and water. He is a real xc machine, point and aim type who is very genuine with lots of talent. 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 and low level one day events. As well as being suitable for all pony club and riding club activities.

Finn has a superb quiet temperament; you really wouldn’t find a quieter easier horse. 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. He is so much more than just a horse, he will be your best friend and part of the 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 Finn finds a 10* home where he will be loved and enjoyed.

Passed a 5 stage vetting 2 months ago that can come with him. Videos available on request.

Based in Ramsey, Cambridgeshire. £13,500.

Otto is an attractive gelding who has been steadily produced by an amateur lady with professional support. He has been lightly competed and is ready to go on and excel in the right hands. He has a lovely trainable temperament, and enjoys his work. He is easy to do and honest with three great paces.

He is a super candidate for a competitive rider e.g. Badminton Grassroots, so not a novice ride.  Good to shoe, box, turnout etc. All vaccinations, teeth etc up to date. A straight forward horse who is a lot of fun.

We’re open to sensible offers that reflect the fact that he has had sarcoids. He has responded well to treatment and they have never interfered with his work in any way, but will be a consideration in future. We are seeking a long term home for him where he will be really enjoyed and have the opportunity to blossom further.

If Otto sounds like the horse for you, let’s have a chat.  No time wasters or dealers please. Thank you.

Plenty more pictures and videos available on request.

Striking 4yo mare by Cornet Obolensky (Clinton) x Burggraaf. Currently standing approx 15.3hh, although she should have some more growing and filling out to do as she is a late August foal.

Rosie is a really beautiful and correct type, with the most amazing movement! Having come out the breeders field, her first loose jumps also show a lot of potential - she is naturally careful with a super neat technique.

Since recently arriving with us, Rosie has been sweet to deal with. It’s clear she has previously had limited handling, but she is very amenable and quick to learn. She has been good to turn out, catch, groom, hose off etc and my transporter commented how good she had been on the journey over, both loading and during travel.

A genuine blank canvas, that you can guarantee hasn’t been run off her legs.

To find a mare like this at this money is nearly impossible - usually the type that I say can’t be found, but here she is!

A very exciting prospect, ready to start her education.

Has a recent vetting dated 30/06/2025.
