Out of - Miss Taggle
By - Close Conflict

Another yard star we will be sad to see leave

Bringing home the goods this year she's had a Win (Larkhill) and 2 seconds (Holnicote & Bratton Down) .... the going wasn't ideal for her - so imagine what she could do when its right

Suited to a novice race rider she knows her job and is happy to tackle the fences even when her rider is wrong - Brave and scopey. Has been successfully ridden by a novice previously. Likes to travel but isn't strong or silly.

Easy to do in the yard and gets herself fit. No stable vices, leg or wind issues.

Sensible race day attitude

A real good diesel horse to have at your stables - Ideal for a syndicate ownership as a hardy sort willing to work away every race meet.

Current trainer would be thrilled to give her another spin should new owners with to keep her in situ

This mare is sure to be in the placings next season

Based South Wales

For sale from a private genuine loving home, a pretty and sweet natured 15.2-15.3hh 15 y.o very well bred Weatherby's National Hunt ex racehorse Thoroughbred mare who has been a mum for the last 6 years of her life.

I may consider loaning her f she was kept in West Sussex

Now needs a new experienced home either as a proven broodmare or could be brought back into work with the right person. She did race, just didn't like it so she is ROR eligible.

She apparently did do a bit of show jumping and cross country in-between racing and being a mum before her current home where she has just been a broodmare for the last few years.

A video of her jumping hurdles can be seen in this advert below the description.

She would also make a nice natural horsemanship project or do some fun horse agility with.

She has been an incredible broodmare producing outstanding wonderful natured and strongly built offspring. Has taken first time both naturally and via AI. Foals easily and is a great mum, just knows her job well.

She is a very good do-er with no health issues and good feet. Upto date with vaccines, teeth rasped every year and is on a worming programme with consistantly clear worm counts.

She is used to being with mares and geldings but is scared of being bullied so needs quieter companions.

She is good to handle and transport.

Will only go to a 5 star loving and caring home with proper experience and knowledge of ex racehorse thoroughbreds!

Kylie is a 3 yr old ex racehorse. She last raced 13th May and has been a dream to have in every way.

Standing at 15.2hh at 3 years old, super easy going would be happy to take a confident teenager or adult.

She hacks alone and in company, schooling on the contact and has happily popped a fence.

No lumps or bumps, perfect for your ROR or a lovely small hack in the making.

She does only crib in the stable. I’m sure after some time in the field and with only being young she will grow out of it.

Precious Momento ( Teddy)

  • Looking for his forever home where he will have fun and learn new things
  • Would be best suited to a confident, calm and fun rider
  • He would suit a busy yard

Teddy is a 9 year old ex-race horse. His last race was back in 2020. Teddy did 2 flat races and 1 hurdle. He came out due to not being fast enough.

Teddy would be best suited to a confident, calm and fun rider, a 1 to 1 would be best. He is best hacked out in company as he takes his confidence from his rider and can be nappy on his own. He would suit a busy yard with company and a consistent schedule.

He has done a few dressage lessons and lots of exploring with me but has potential for so much more. He has not jumped since being in my ownership and is very nervous of poles, and xc jumps. So if this was something you are looking for he would need a lot of time and patience for him to get there.

Teddy is looking for his forever home where he will have fun and learn new things.
Teddy can be sharp no novices please. He is a big baby at heart who needs reassurance.
Teddy is good with farrier, dentist but thinks he is a pocket horse so personal space is not his best trait.

Teddy has no known medical issues or long term injuries. Other than the well known classic thoroughbred cuts and scrapes

I am selling Teddy due to no longer having the time or finances to afford him. His new home is very important to me.

Vices: Weaving, when he is in a stable and he is anxious he will weave. A weave bar has proved to stop this.

Can be a nervous traveler. Winnies and can kick out at trailer. It can take time to get him loaded so patience is key.

  • Thoroughbred
  • Bay
  • Gelding
  • 8 years
  • 16 hands
  • Super fun
  • Careful and scopey jump
  • Placed in the show ring

Absolutely cracking TB gelding available (I would pick him over a warmblood any day), 8 years old, 16 hh.

I don't know where to start with this super fun little horse he is one of the easiest horses to do, travels well, stands on his own in the trailer at a show, good to shoe and clip, hacks alone or in company. Just a pleasure to have around, stick food in front of him and you're onto a winner!

He came out of racing after a win over hurdles and also placed chasing, end of October 2024 due to showing what an out and out jumper he is and proving what a scopey and careful jump he has and God can he jump.
So far he's been to showjumping shows
(jumping 90cm easily) and is already ready to step up again in height proving to already be a good grassroots horse but has the ability to definitely go over the bigger fences. Could easily be BSJA registered tomorrow he'd absolutely love it.

Has also been to BSJA and Thoughbred aftercare programme training where he is loved by all and really shows what a jump he has.

Eligible for ROR and moves well on the flat, meaning he could also excel in the show ring and dressage. He has been shown in-hand in hack and ROR classes.

He has been arena cross country schooling over the winter and showed he could also be a good event horse.

Just a great allround horse that i know would take to hunting and team chasing like a pro aswell.

Would be a great horse for a teenager to have a lot of fun with but also a great adults horse aswell. Wouldn't be a complete novices ride, does need a confident rider that will just laugh at him as he is a super fun happy horse that does have a competition mind set.

He came straight out of racing and to a show and didn't put a foot wrong, behaving like pro. Just showing what a fabulous attitude he has, just can't sing his praises enough.

Up to date with physio, teeth, shoeing etc. No stable vices

Never lame, sick or sorry just a fun horse looking for a fun owner to carry on with!

***MISSION IMPOSSIBLE!!!***

Desperately seeking a genuine, safe, 15-16hh (Max), as a Low-Level Allrounder for a very experienced mature, Lady Rider (5’4”, 9 Stone). Due to circumstances out of my control, still seeking my Forever Horse for Hacking, Lessons/Clinics, Riding Club, Local Shows/Events (including: Dressage, SJ, XC, ODE, SHowing), Fun Rides (but absolutely NO Hunting needed.). Geldings preferred but ‘Non-Mare-ish’ Mares considered!

Must, happily:

 HACK ALONE (and in company occasionally)
Travel alone (7.5T Horsebox)
 NO Vices
Live out 24/7 (but rugged/clipped as appropriate with Field Shelter and Stable)
Good in traffic
Turn-out with other ponies or on it’s own (next to others)
‘Independent Brain’/Non-Stresser - Hacking, Travelling, occasionally turning out alone)
TB’s/TB x/ISH Type

No Vices
No Buckers, Rearers, Bolters, Nappers
No known KS or SI Issues
No Heavy Types

This will be a pleasure ‘Forever Horse’ for myself; looking for a few years of fun and then happy to provide a retirement home. We keep two other old ponies (one 28 years old and one 16 years old) that we have owned for 11 years (and they are going nowhere!); we also keep a couple of Dogs, Chickens and a Pigmy Goat on our Small Holding.

Very experienced Rural, Private home offered and professional references can be provided. Said horse is never going to be over-worked (probably ridden 3-5 times/week and fun things/competitions probably once a month). Would suit a horse that someone just doesn’t want to completely let-go-of/wants to stay in touch. Something that needs to take a slower pace of life but still needs to be active. Don’t mind certain medical issues providing they are disclosed, or horses needing to come back into work (providing they were sane beforehand!).

Permanent/Long-Term Loan preferred.
LWVTB Considered
Possible Sale but No ridiculous prices, please.

6yo
15.2hh
Ex Flat Racehorse - ROR eligible

I really can’t believe he is still available! He is going to be such a fun and cool little horse in the future.

Cracker has been out hacking, alone and in company. He is not phased by any type of traffic and is brave enough to lead other horses past busses and tractors!

Cracker loves to jump. He is bold and brave into a fence, and will rarely ever knock a pole. He is clever and will sort out his strides out himself. Cracker is progressing on the flat and will in time do a lovely dressage test. He has such great movement, and is balanced and rhythmical. Cracker recently went out XC schooling for the first time and wow did he blow us away. He went round there like he’s being doing it his whole life. In time I think Cracker could go eventing as he is just starting to show us what he is made of.

Cracker has..
3 established paces, moves incredibly well, very balanced and in a nice rhythm
Jumps show jumps cleanly and rarely gets a pole
Is a bold and clever jumper out XC
What more could you want?!

Please get in touch if you are interested in grabbing an absolutely cracking horse for a quarter of the price!! Serious enquires only apply, quick and hassle free sale needed as new home required asap

Betty is looking for her next chapter.

Betty retired from racing last year and has since been enjoying hacking and light schooling. She’s very sweet-natured, responsive, and willing to learn. She would suit a confident rider who is willing to put their own stamp on her as she has mainly hacked.

Betty has been on pleasure rides and away to a few arena hires to do flat and jump schooling but again this hasn’t been done a lot/regular so she will need brought on in this department. Betty is an ex NH horse so has plenty of ability when it comes to her jumping.

She has recently just had a brand new saddle fitted, possiblity for this to go with her but will cost as it is brand new.

She’s snaffle mouthed and is never strong or silly.

Has been known to windsuck when eating.

Up to date with teeth, jabs, and farrier.

She’s good to shoe, clip, load etc.

  • Excellent ground manners
  • Snaffle mouthed, with 3 naturally good paces

  • Bay
  • Mare
  • 4 years

  • Full history known, only raced 4 times
  • Excellent ground manners
  • Snaffle mouthed, with 3 naturally good paces

Bonnie is a bay mare, 4 years old. ROR eligible as she raced 4 times.

She was purchased direct from the stud where she was breed, full history known, never sick or sorry, no injuries, clean limbed, good feet.

Great to shoe, clip, load and travels well.

Been to a few arena hires, and completed her first dressage competition, coming away with 63% and 64% impeccably well behaved in the warmup arena and in between the whiteboards, could not of asked for any more from her.

Up to date with Vacs, teeth, worming and Chiropractor checked.

She is happy to live out but can also be stabled.

Fit and ready to go project. Not a novice ride, she is a young horse and needs a confident calm rider to carry on her education, would do very well in the right hands.

Always snaffle mouthed, has hacked out in company and is very well mannered, more than willing to take the lead or go behind, has seen lorrys, railway lines, trotted through water and cantered in open fields quiet happily.
