  • Real genuine thoroughbred with huge potential

Bertie is a super smart ROR, he will excel in eventing and would be a prime candidate to aim for the Cornbury racehorse challenge - although he could do anything as he has a real sensible head on his shoulders and could just as much hack around the lanes and be your best friend.

He finished racing at the end of last year and had a lot of downtime before I got him. Although he is 7, he is a big framed horse and does still need time to fill out and strengthen up. I have taken him to arena hires, clinics and cross country schooling and he is very sensible out and about as well as hacking. Other horses don’t seem to upset him, in fact he doesn’t really seem to be phased by much!

I have recently had his teeth done and he has seen the physio, as I said above he does need to time to develop so I haven’t pushed him and we spend a lot of time hacking up and down hills to try and build up his hind end. He moves beautifully and has a really lovely balanced canter, he is very sensible to a fence (and away!) and is proving to be very brave.

He is very easy to deal with and currently lives in with daily turnout, he is shod all round and has been very good to do, I haven’t clipped him since I have had him. I travel him in a trailer but was also
told he loads and travels well in a horsebox.

He really will be your best friend and is a very trusting genuine horse that seems to love everyone! If I could find an owner for him he really wouldn’t be going anywhere but I just cannot afford to run 2. I would also happily keep him with me once sold for further producing or teaching for you and help during the changeover period. Lots of options available. I really do want to see him in the best home and be given every opportunity for success.

Max - 16.1hh bright bay gelding. Lovely easy chap to have about at home but equally as mannerly to take out & about.

Max hacks alone & in company. Often leading young children. Sensible in open spaces, great with gates.

He has regularly hunted, snaffled mouthed, spent all last season leading a 5yr old child on the pony.

Went to PC champs in previous home, done all PC activites. Lovely first horse type as kind & honest.

Not the best confirmation, but sound!

A Horse With Presence, Power, and Purpose

Standing at an impressive 16.3HH, this 2019 gelding is the kind of horse that turns heads before he even takes a step. Based in Worcester, UK, he is a true heavyweight in both build and ability, a solid, well-put-together horse with a hoof planted confidently in each corner and the breeding to match!

But it’s not just his size that makes him special, it’s his nature.

No vices, clean, and sound, the sort of horse that gives you peace of mind along with potential.

Underneath that steady temperament lies real athleticism. He is a fantastic jumper with scope and strength, the type that meets a fence with confidence and honesty. He’s currently race fit and in the best condition of his life, strong, powerful, and forward going, so he suits a rider who appreciates a horse with purpose.

This is not a horse who wants to stand still in life. He thrives when he has a job, and would excel in a home where he can channel his ability into something meaningful whether that’s show jumping, eventing, hunting, or team chasing. Give him a direction, and he will give you everything.

He wants for nothing and is ready to step into his next chapter with someone who sees his value not just in his size or strength, but in his heart and willingness.

Sonic 16.1hh 10year old tbi

Sonic is not your typical Thoroughbred he is a chunky, good-doing type with a genuine brain, making him a rare find in today’s market. Horses that combine rideability, bravery, and versatility like this are increasingly hard to source.

While he is straightforward and genuine, he is not a novice ride. Sonic is an enthusiastic horse who loves a job, and as such would be best suited to a competent rider who will enjoy and channel his energy. In the right hands, he has all the attributes to be a fantastic competition horse.

He is an “everyone’s ride” type in terms of temperament and attitude, yet still bold enough to jump, event, and step up competitively, giving him a wide appeal for those wanting something fun but capable.

Everyone rides him here; he leads the breakers, schools beautifully, is super enthusiastic about jumping! Hacks on the buckle end.

With proven experience across cross country, showjumping, fun rides, a season hunting and low-level eventing, alongside his ability to hack alone or in company, Sonic offers a ready-made, all-round package saving a new owner significant time, effort, and production costs.

Currently competing 90cm showjumping, rarely touches a pole and never says no; he is stepping up to 1m classes next week and is also entered for novice level dressage test where I am almost certain he should score in the 70% which is where most of his dressage scores lye currently.

He was entered to team chase the first weekend he arrived , which reflects his scope and enthusiasm for the job, but unfortunately didn’t run due to personal circumstances no fault of his own.

His attitude is what truly sets him apart:

* Genuine and willing
* Loves his job
* Bold and brave to a fence
* Consistent in different environments

These types of horses are the crème de la creme they are safe and fun, but with enough blood and enthusiasm to be competitive are always in high demand. Sonic will be a chilled laid back happy hacker or will step up and become that high blood competition horse as soon as you ask!

No injuries or vices
A rather extensive portfolio to say the least!

Chester , a 15.2HH 2019 Thoroughbred Gelding standing at one of our professional racing yards in Kent.
Vettings and viewings most welcomed
Door to Door Transport Available Weekly

Some horses retire from racing and need time to figure out who they are next… Chester already knows. He has stepped into his second career as an event horse with the same heart and honesty that makes people fall in love with him the moment they meet him.

Standing at a professional yard in Kent, Chester is a compact 15.2hh gelding with the kindest temperament, snaffle mouthed and a genuine willingness to please. He’s the sort of horse that tries for you every single day, whether that’s in the school, out hacking, or stepping into the competitive ring.

Clean, sound and vice-free, Chester has good conformation, straight movement, solid bone and excellent feet. He’s beautifully put together and carries himself with a lovely presence without ever being sharp or difficult.

What makes Chester special is his attitude. He’s straightforward, sensible and incredibly genuine. He hacks confidently around the farm, happily goes out alone and takes new experiences in his stride. He’s already proving himself in his reschooling and is progressing beautifully, showing all the ingredients to continue climbing the levels with the right person.

This is the type of horse people search for endlessly… kind enough to enjoy every day, talented enough to keep progressing, and honest enough to trust.

A proper all-rounder with a lovely future ahead of him
