Duke, 16.2hh 12 year old ottb

Duke is a handsome grey gelding. He is such a lovely boy on the ground, well mannered and easy to handle, stands like a dope while being fussed with. Good to hack alone and in company, seen all traffic etc. In his past home he competed a lot in dressage, and is eligible for RoR.

Lovely paces on the flat, never bucks or rears. Has popped a small course, could potentially be brought on with his jumping at a low level.

Former Arkle Cup champion at Cheltenham.

Good for farrier, to clip, lunge and to catch. Loads and travels well too. A real genuine lovely boy, always wants to please. Up to date with farrier, physio and vaccines. Past history known.

Duke is for sale due to no fault of his own and only going to the best of homes.

Somerset based.

01\2022 15.2hh Ex Racehorse mare (raced flat three times, too slow, retired sound), bought straight of trainer in April 2025, stayed in field until October 2025, then very gently started re-training process.

Lightly ridden now 2-3 times a week, still at the very beginning of her training.
She is very willing and sweet, but still unbalanced and green of course.

Hacks out alone (still can be calling home and sometimes needs encouragement when alone) and in company, haven’t tried her in traffic, but she’s used to cars/quad bikes, bikes, bicycles and machinery and couldn’t care less.

She long-reins and lunges.

Extremely quiet and exceptionally sweet natured - loves cuddles, grooms and people (she will need some time to fully trust - as most mares do).

She gets handled by my young daughters.
Great with farrier, (shod cold still), dentist and vet.
Haven’t clipped her, so don’t know what she is like, but would assume she would be ok if introduced properly.
Only loaded her once when picked up from trainer, which she did willingly and traveled quietly.
Lives out 24/7, not rugged, but obviously used to being stabled in former career.

Due to change of circumstances up for sale or LWVTB - only to the right home with experience with re-training ex racers.

She is beeing looked after well - vaccs/worm/teeth/feet all up to date (I am a vet and have owned, trained and ridden horses since 40 years), and would like this to be continued.

To avoid time wasters, I will only discuss more info after have been sent a video of riding ability and explaining how knowledge of ex racehorses came about.

Doesn’t come with tack.

Contract will be in place if LWVTB.

Please WA video(s) and your info to 07934779240.
