A lovely mare that’s a pleasure to do and have around.

Bought unseen and sadly too big for our purpose, hence straightforward sale sought.

Loads and travels well, seems to be vice and blemish free. We haven’t had cause to sit on her so available from the field, sound and no injury’s, told she’s a good ride which her temperament would suggest.

We think a lot of her, so good home essential.

Harry

17.1hh | 5 year old Thoroughbred gelding by Sea Moon looking for his perfect home.

Harry came out of racing to us and has enjoyed some downtime while beginning his retraining. Since being with us, he has started flatwork, jumping in the school and hacking out nicely.

He is a very kind horse with a calm temperament and lovely attitude. Like many ex-racehorses, he can occasionally worry about little things, but he is genuine and simply needs reassurance and confidence from his rider.

A lovely big horse with plenty of bone and a nice stamp about him, Harry moves beautifully and has plenty of potential for someone wanting to produce a quality horse for ROR, eventing, dressage or hunting.

This is a horse we think a lot of, so finding the right home is very important to us. He deserves someone patient and kind who will continue his education and enjoy the journey with him.

Kind, calm temperament. Plenty of bone and a lovely stamp. Potential for ROR, eventing, dressage or hunting

Serious enquiries only please.

'Six' Wonderful opportunity to own a fabulous ex racer who dreams to be an eventer. He's so bold , loves his job and has the best personality. Not at all spooky or sharp , no malice in him at all.

Six has been with a lovely family based on a very busy livery yard / riding school where he enjoyed regular lessons with his owner and took part in various activities

Recently found himself needing to find a new home so has come to us on livery and is schooling beautifully on the flat and over fences

Loves hacking alone and in company
Great to do in the stable
Enjoys field time
Has no vices

Six is a wonderful event prospect or a nice riding club sort for a confident teen / amateur

Absolutely no hang ups , but he is forward thinking so wouldn't suit a complete novice or nervous jockey but is so much fun for someone like minded , who enjoys a good gallop across a field , wants to win a jump off and enjoys a nicely schooled horse on the flat

An honest , brave horse who is so much fun

Six is approx 16hh / 16.1 and is 12yrs old

4,000 with his tack

Open to any inspection.

Attractive gelding with a great attitude and plenty of potential. A lovely type who would make a super ROR prospect for someone looking for a rewarding project.

He has begun his retraining and has shown a willing, trainable nature, but is now being sold due to lack of time. Currently turned away and ready to come back into work, making this an ideal opportunity for someone wanting to put their own stamp on a quality horse.

Moves well and has the foundations to progress in a variety of disciplines with further education.

A genuine sale of a smart young horse with a bright future in the right hands.

  • Impeccable manners all round

We’re looking for a forever home for our 16.1hh 6 year old gelding post racing. He’d be well suited to all disciplines due to his easy going mannerisms.

He’s polite to be around in all aspects, good to load, shoe, clip etc. He’s a very laid back horse without having the typical thoroughbred mindset.

Since retiring from the track he hasn’t done much retraining, however he will take anything in his stride that is asked of him.

He’d be perfect for a novice wanting to learn together, or even someone wanting to hack and have some fun with.

I am advertising him on behalf of my dad, please message the mobile number provided for him to answer any enquiries.

Ali is an ex racer, she has been out of racing for 5 years. She has been an absolute delight to produce. She is the boldest horse to any fence and is very easy on the flat. she is very light to ride, very light on her feet, she has teamchased a few times with me, most recently 2 weeks ago at the Wynnstay.

She then went out last weekend to do combined training at 80 level and came 3rd. Never says no to a fence.

She had last year out to produce the most stunning colt foal and came back into work in the winter 25/26. Is now fit and ready to compete. I sadly do not have the funds to event her this season and she would be wasted here whilst in her absolute prime.

She would suit a teenager or amateur wanting to get out eventing this season. She is happy in or out, not at all bothered or clingy about other horses.

Pics and vids from last few weeks.

  • Beautiful 15.2hh 6-Year-Old Bay Thoroughbred Mare looking for new home.

A lovely type with plenty of presence, good movement, and a kind attitude.

I have owned Scarlet for 3 years and have taken my time bringing her on. She has never raced and was professionally backed. Done lots of hacking, unaffiliated shows and Common Riding. Will happily hack out alone or with company.

A genuine young horse with lots of potential to excel in a variety of disciplines, whether you're looking for a fun all-rounder, riding club horse, or a prospect to produce further.

Excellent to load, travel and clip. Currently bare foot but has been fully shod and stands extremely well for the farrier. Up to date with vaccines and farrier.

15.2hh 6 years old Bay Thoroughbred Well put together with a lovely nature. Ready to continue education with new rider.

A great opportunity to acquire a young horse with a bright future ahead. Serious enquiries only please. Message for more information, videos, and price.
