Want to look like the dogs but not have the price tag? Don’t look any further! Finished racing sound on Boxing Day, rising 9, 16.2 gelding, he has the moves, the brain and a heart of gold.

The type you don’t have to ride everyday and most people could get on and bobble round without him taking offence. However, could be a serious athlete in his new career, some serious scope, very elegant and a really nice person to work with.

Doesn’t seem to have the ability to say no and has a go at everything. If not snapped up will go XC schooling and to arena hires and his price will go up.

His only vice is he windsucks, please don’t let that put you off such a genuine chap.

10yo 16.1hh Mare

Quality homebred mare with a fantastic attitude and plenty of untapped potential.

• Age: 10 years
• Height: 16.1hh
• Gender: Mare
• ROR Eligible

Successfully showjumped to Newcomers with scope to go further. Has also XC schooled, showing masses of potential for eventing. Hunted once — slightly hot but always well behaved.

Rides in a snaffle. A forward ride but very safe and genuine. Has had a riding school girl on her and behaved impeccably, yet can easily step up two more gears when asked.

Hacks alone or in company
Brilliant in traffic
Safe as houses to ride
Can be left for two weeks and comes out the same
Moves like a warmblood

She takes around a week to settle into a new home and during this time can be a little bargey on the ground, but remains lovely and safe to ride.

Prefers to live out 24/7. Will box walk if stabled, so a turnout-based home would suit her best.

She has been in the same home her entire life until recently and is only for sale due to being overstocked — she’s simply being wasted in the field.

Small cataract in one eye, which does not affect her and is fully reflected in her price. No sensible offer refused to see her in her perfect home.

Good to do in all respects – she has done a little flat work, show Jumping and hunting since she retired after winning a race.

She is good to box, shoe, clip.

She is a very pretty horse who is well behaved and is ready to come back into work after a break.

  • Lovely temperament
£4,750 neg
  • Thoroughbred

  • Gelding
  • 8 years

  • Will make a lovely all rounder / showing prospect
  • Stunning Boy / ROR Eligible
  • Lovely temperament
Franco was purchased June 2024 direct from the race yard, he's spent some time with me being schooled and has done some pole work & jumping. He’s popped a small course of jumps including fillers. He’s quite green as only flat raced so would need more education here.

He is a lovely, steady, balanced ride with an armchair canter and established changes so would suit showing or dressage, which he really enjoys.
A knowledgeable home looking to continue his education is essential, as he has plenty of potential to offer the right person. I switched disciplines to Polo in August 2025 and unfortunately he is too tall for the sport and doesn't enjoy it as much as I do. He has only been schooled in a “polo” style since Aug 2025 so would need to be restarted under “traditional” style riding however I have started this and he is adapting back very well.

He hacks lovely in a pair, has been out on quiet country roads and fields with no issues. He can be very strong and forward in a group. He has done limited hacking as I personally do not enjoy it.

Franco is a lovely sweet boy who enjoys cuddles and strawberries, I am looking for the best home for my special boy. Price is negotiable for the right knowledgable home.

Tack not included but some rugs will be.
