A proper, straightforward hunter. 16.3hh 10-year-old Irish Draught mare who has hunted regularly with various packs as a hireling. Mannerly, sensible, and knows her job.

Stands quietly at the meet, good with hounds, and never gets hot, silly, or strong. Goes all day and doesn’t tire. Point-and-shoot type when it comes to jumping — careful and honest over a fence. Will happily lead or slot in behind and queue politely at a fence.

This summer she’s been out on numerous cross-country schooling clinics, riding holidays, beach rides, and fun rides. A lovely horse to take away — never stressy, good in open spaces, and easy to do in every way.

Quiet on the lorry, good to clip, catch, load, shoe, and hack alone or in company. Excellent in traffic.

Clean limbs and no vices. Can be tried out hunting. Delivery available.

A genuine, quality mare who will give someone many enjoyable days this season.

Guinness - Hunter, Eventer and Smart allrounder

16/16.1hh 7 year old ISH X ID gelding (Kerrystone X Ballyheen)

Guinness an amazing example of the Irish horse, sane, honest and well established this horse is worth his weight in gold. If you are looking for an eye catching allrounder & hunter/ODE then he really is your perfect horse.

He has three well balanced and straight paces, works quietly and sweetly in the arena and with a little further education he would produce a lovely dressage test. All his basic transitions are there and he is very balanced, just some finishing touches required which will come very easily. He has a lovely soft mouth.

Guinness loves jumping and has ALOT of scope. He is a point and go type, and definitely has the ability to tackle hedges if you fancied it. Guinness is familiar with all types of fillers and tray, he has also schooled round rustic fences on several occasions proving hisself to be bold and honest. Guinness willingly, rarely touches a pole and doesn’t fizz up or become strong. He hunted for 2 seasons with his previous owner.

Guinness hacks well both alone and in company, he will happily go first or last in both open spaces and heavy traffic. He is totally unflappable in any traffic. We can’t find any faults with this lovely chap! Totally sane and very smart horse for most riders.

Offered for sale due to downsizing this winter, this exceptional 16.3hh Irish Sports Horse gelding is the ultimate “Rolls-Royce” of a hunter — safe, sane, and sensible, with a leg in each corner.

He has been an outstanding and much-loved hunter hireling with us the past few seasons, taking a variety of clients out hunting and always looking after them. A true gentleman: mannerly, straightforward, and consistent — the same reliable ride every day.

A proper weight carrier and confidence giver, he will cross any country with ease and take care of his rider while doing it. Bold yet genuine, brave yet sensible — he offers the kind of safety and reliability that’s priceless.

He’s also enjoyed fun rides, beach outings, and riding holidays, and has several seasons’ hunting experience in previous homes.

Good to do in every way — clips, shoes, boxes, catches, and handles well — with excellent manners both in and out of the stable. No vices, clean-limbed, and a pleasure to have around.

In his previous home, he also competed in unaffiliated dressage, show jumping, and one-day events, demonstrating a lovely way of going and a willing attitude.

Only for sale as we’re cutting down the number of horses this season. Priced to sell to the right home.

Can be tried out hunting.

  • A real exciting prospect for showjumping or eventing
  • Easily jumps the top of the wings
  • Xc schooled
Incredibly smart rising 7yo ready for someone to put his stamp on. He is an incredibly gentle & kind soul and easy enough for a teenager looking for a horse to produce on. But equally has all the quality for a professionals strong looking for a horse to produce up the levels. He’s bred for the jumping job with Comthago VDL - Comme Il Faut - Cornet Oblensky. However he has also got stunning floaty paces and gives a gorgeous feeling and presence in his flatwork.

His career has not been rushed, he has still got relatively low mileage whilst having still gone out to competitions, evented to 100 and xc schooled. But he has got all the foundations there schooling correctly with lateral work, flying changes etc. He finds it all very easy and is lovely and soft in the contact and very light in his step for a bigger horse. He is schooling round courses of 1.20/1.25 at home, he’s ready to go out and really make a name for himself. We really believe he has so much jump to explore.

He has got plenty of scope easily jumping the top of the wings no jump seems to be too big, whilst also wanting to leave the fences up. He is still green but really tries and wants to please.

Open to all vet checks with no vet history or concerns, clean limbs and very correctly put together with clean X-rays. He really will be such an exciting horse for someone.

Great trial facilities in Watlington, Oxfordshire

Simba is a lovely sports horse with a laid back temperament but a mega jump!

He schools nicely on the flat and although he hasn’t competed dressage he would do a nice test.

He has mainly jumped both SJ and XC with his amateur owner.

He happily schools round 1.10+ and last week jumped a lovely clear at a show which was my first time competing him.

He would suit a range of riders - don’t let his size put you off , my 5ft 2 groom schools him!

He does have a slight shiver which never affects him but must be noted.

Open to any vetting / xrays etc.

Thomas is the most kind genuine young horse you could wish for.

Absolute star in the making and is a real blank canvas for someone to put their own stamp on.

Thomas has 3 correct paces and a lovely genuine jump.

He is very honest and kind and not at all sharp.

He was broken end of last year and has since had a holiday to mature and grow , he has more recently come back under saddle and has been hacking, has started basic flatwork at home and at arena hires and is popping a round a course of small jumps and fillers .

Thomas has been out and about to different arenas , alone and in company to gain experience,

He is very level headed and takes it all on his stride,

He is not a spooky or sharp type but is forward off the leg and enjoys his work.

He is snaffle mouthed and super safe including in open spaces .

Thomas has been hacking in open fields and on the roads and has seen traffic / farm machinery.

He is a lovely straightforward young horse with a big future ahead

Quiet enough for an amateur to produce and make their own.

Would suit an all round pc /Rc home.

Thomas loads straight on a lorry or trailer, is excellent to handle and do and loves a fuss .

This is a very hard ad to write as I am very attached to this fantastic little mare.

Since breaking Doris in as a 3yo I have had the pleasure of producing her every step of the way till the point that she is in now a incredibly reliable and trustworthy grassroots eventer as well as a quality all rounder.

She has very trainable attitude and is a genuine serious contender in every discipline.

Whatever she turns her hoof to she will do to the best of her abilities and give her rider enjoyment whilst doing it.

She is a whizz on the hunting field and xc course and will take on whatever is asked of her.

Straightforward to hack, load, clip etc

Doris could be the dream horse for many a younger rider wanting to learn the ropes or amateur rider just wanting to get out there and have some fun!

As you can probably tell I have a lot of affection for this star of a mare and sincerely hope that she finds the home that she deserves!

A big rangey horse that’s still got plenty of filling out to do. He hacks out on his own or with company and has been super in traffic.

He does have a couple of super tiny sarcoids which will be easily treated and makes a slight noise, none of this will affect his potential and gives an opportunity for someone to acquire a top class horse on a budget.

Happy to hack alone or in company

Cigar is a rare type – a kind, genuine, uncomplicated ex-racer with manners, mileage, and a lovely way about him. After a solid and consistent career under rules, with two wins and numerous placings (and £32k earned for connections), his syndicate rightly felt they’d had a good run and decided to retire him sound at the end of the 2023 season. I bought him directly from the trainer with the aim of giving him a new chapter as a hunter and enjoyable riding horse.

Since then, he’s taken to hunting and hacking like a natural. I’ve hunted him solo and with family, including the Pytchley’s 2024 Ladies’ Day where he behaved impeccably and turned a fair few heads (hence the fabulous photos!). He’s a joy to take out – chilled, mannerly, and totally unfazed. I always go home with the hounds, and he’ll comfortably do a full day followed by a 3/4 day later in the week – though if I hunt him twice, I tend to make the second day shorter simply because I don’t use a second horse.

He had about 4–5 weeks off after the end of the last season, then was kept gently ticking over, with regular hacking throughout the spring and summer. Now in late summer, he’s in consistent work and getting fit ahead of the coming season.

He’s extremely low maintenance – keeps his weight on beautifully, not your typical fussy Thoroughbred. Happy living in or out, he’s turned out year-round but stabled before and after hunting days in winter, usually 2–4 days per week. He’s content stabled alone or with company, equally settled in a paddock on his own or in a group.

The only reason for sale is time. My work has increased this year, and I’ve got a homebred 2-year-old to break in, as well as a second hunter who’s still green and needs more mileage. This winter, I simply won’t have the time to do all three justice, and Cigar deserves to be out enjoying himself.

He would suit a hunting family, a competent teen, or 'older' jockey who wants to start riding again, or a mother-daughter share. He’s ideal for someone with a lead-rein pony who wants a calm, experienced second horse to take out too. He’s also perfectly happy as a fun ride or light all-rounder – hacks out alone or in company, and he’s seen all types of country: ditches, hedges, trappy terrain, XC schooling fences, you name it. He doesn’t need daily riding – you can bring him in after a break, tack up and go, no drama.

No vices, no injuries, no sarcoids, and full history known.

10yo (02 Mar 2015) bay gelding by Nayef (USA) x Barnezet (GR) (Invincible Spirit)
Rated 108 over hurdles | 104 over fences
Placed: 1st x2, 2nd x5, 3rd x1 (hurdles) | 2nd x1, 3rd x3 (chase)
Retired sound, sane and straightforward – now ready for his next chapter

Girls aren't always practical, but at times we have to be - and with the next season ahead, I have to realistically look at what I can do, and hence the sale - it would make me feel awful and sad to see him left at home, on days when I'm training 2yr oldor hunting my green hunter, and I simply cannot spend more time in Dorset.

Please whatsapp me - happy to chat on the phone so you can learn more about Cigar, but please no day-trippers or timewasters.
Equally have time to show him to you, but have to take time off, and my time with the horses is precious, so I'd like to find a wonderful fit and home for him and make someone happy, but not have to deal with a lot of hassle.

Priced accordingly to my commitments. Offers considered with the right home in mind.

Ace of Diamonds is the most beautiful, steady gelding and a beautifully put together horse. We have had him since we got him from his breeder as a colt - where he has been brought on exceptionally carefully. An exceptional gelding - Autumn Hunted and Hunted 4 seasons, very steady, doesn't pull, phenomenal movement & carriage due to his spectacular Sire.

We have spent many hours developing and training him with the Parelli Natural Horsemanship method, since getting him. His breeding lines are absolutely sensational, very elegant and classy.

Never had a lame day, he is turned out all year round, but equally happy stabled and travels incredibly well. Easy to do. Very frequently washed as he looks so glorious when he's clean!

He hacks in busy traffic daily if hacking out. Hacks alone, hacks in company, in front, behind, middle, with 1-2 other horses, or with a string of horses. He ride leads happily, again, in front, behind, alone or in company.

Due to his natural capability and movement (due to his breeding - sire) he could turn his hoof to any discipline, however with us he has done fun rides, and tons and tons of hunting. Covers all country, very careful and the sweetest boy; with a lovely character, he is inquisitive and a delight to have around.

He's been trained exceptionally well in his time with us; we bought him as a colt, so he's only ever known 2 homes - the breeder and us - he was kept by the breeder whom she bred from, due to his phenomenal lines. With us he's been the most fantastic family horse, shared amongst us as a family, fun rides, riding all over, and hunting.

He's an easy horse - tack up on his own and hack out, and throw him back into the field without a thought the only difference one would notice, is his interest in the 'world' but he is not fizzy or fussed about traffic / horses / dogs etc. He rides out alone, or in company, farm traffic and farm life, inc. busy A roads, shoot 'traffic' and farm traffic. Loads in a trailer or lorry, (3.5 or 7.5T)

We ride our horses in Dr Cook Bitless Bridle's, but otherwise he's in a snaffle and is gentle in the mouth. Only vice is he can be a little messy in his stable, so a small hole net is recommended, or he'll drag all the hay out! He's not a dobbin though, he's got beautiful spirit and energy, not a plod.

Coming from a family yard, for sale as I go abroad with work and don't need as many horses at home, as I can share my mothers/sisters. My mother's work constraints mean I am reducing my workload for her at home. NOT an urgent sale. We haven't properly brought him into work for the this hunting season due to time - will only sell to the right home, while we do need to reduce pressure at home, he is a spectacular boy and only the right home will be considered.

Ace of Diamonds (Diamond Echo is his proper name!) is so gorgeous he could easily be turned into an Eventer, or show jumper, or anything your heart desires - he is honest and willing and so gentle, he has a lot of love and life to give and his new home is very important to us.

He has also been a pro model for us, as modelled on one of Nicholas Sparks' novels!
