Really nice 8 years old bay mare she is about 16:2hh. She is a full Irish draft cross

Sire Key Moore diamond Clover Sjis got very good traditional Irish breeding

She is a really good stamp. She was with the family in Ireland for a very long time. She done lots of hunting at at least 3/4seasons hunting. She also has an SJI record. ( show jumping.) up to 110. With scope to move on. She is really fun in the ring. And will literally jump whatever you’re putting in front of her. She is 100% genuine. 

She is absolutely unbelievable to hack out she will hack in the busiest, loudest traffic or a bicycles Dogs et cetera. We often use her as a lead Horse as she is so solid on the roads.

She had a very much of an Irish upbringing. Slight negative, but this has been allocated in the price.

We sold her last winter. And they ended up having problems with her in the school. So we took her back we are not sure what went wrong as before she went she was absolutely perfect in the arena and now she shows an inconsistency. With my Rider, she will never do anything wrong in the arena. But we have had one or two people come and try her in the arena and she doesn't enjoy it.

She absolutely flew through vetting and x-rays

She actually is a really nice mare . She travels amazing. Trailer. Or lorry clip shoe catch Stable manners mountain block manners. Snaffle not Strong.

In a showjumping arena, she is absolutely spot-on she absolutely loves it. She’s literally ready to jump 110 with an amateur and she will take a miss. She has 120 scope the ideal Home would be somebody that just wants to maybe Hunt and show jump and hack fun rides that type of thing.

She happily walks around the arena but just doesn’t like to be asked to work in their but for some reason my Rider can do anything with her very strange I know.  It’s a very honest advert. Because she is 100% in every other way. And she has been sold out a fraction of the price that she should be worth. We are not too sure what went on when she left.

Oscar – Smart Allrounder / Hunting & Hacking Horse

4yo 15.1h Full Connemara by Magherafadda lad
Negative Hoofwall

Handsome bay gelding with a lovely kind nature looking for a confident, experienced home to continue his education. Oscar enjoys his work and has mainly been used for hacking, with a few hunts and cross-country outings under his belt.

He hacks out well and has seen plenty of traffic and open spaces. Has hunted politely and taken cross-country fences confidently, showing plenty of potential to make a fun allrounder for the right rider.

Oscar is still green in the school and will need an experienced, sympathetic rider to continue his schooling and bring out his full potential. He is never strong or silly, but in the right hands he could go on to excel and be a very rewarding horse.

Good looking horse with a lovely presence and a willing attitude. He has the perfect stamp and temperament for someone wanting a genuine horse to produce further.

GARY CHES BOY aka CHESTER - 16.2hh approx, 5yro (2021) Irish Bred Chestnut gelding

Chester is a striking and quality Irish sport horse with good bone and conformation. He stands out with a beautiful flaxen mane and tail and a kind and willing personality to go with his good looks.

Since arriving from Ireland at the start of the year, Chester has been a gentleman and a pleasure to have and keep. Good with small children and dogs on a busy and active yard. He is always doing what is asked of him and only wants to please his rider.

Hacking well alone and in company over different terrain and enjoying a wash off in the local river. Proving to be sensible in a range of traffic, farm machinery to bicycles etc. Mannerly to hack in company, not strong or silly, happiest when leading but will also follow. Has done fun rides behaving well and enjoying with ears pricked!

Chester is really excelling himself in the arena, working in a good frame and going off the leg well. Comes into a contact when asked, still slightly green at times but showing a delightful attitude and willingness to learn. Well balanced paces, a lovely rhythmical canter and started flying changes over a pole. Recently partnered with a 15yro rider for Pony Club rallies doing grid-work and pole work activities.

Chester has been to local arena hires and competitions including some small arena eventing outings where he was unphased by a range of jumps and fillers, even bagging a 5th place rosette in a competitive class.
Stood on the Horsebox while another horse jumped and was mannerly around all other horses in the warm up ring etc.

Chester is a gentleman to handle on the ground, good for the farrier, easy to load and travel, tack up and untack etc.
He does require sedation to clip but this is something he could learn to accept with trust. Looking for a sympathetic hand as he can be head shy at times and a little unsure of new people until he gets to know and trust his partner. Good to catch and turn out, currently turned out but comes in regularly and has been stabled with no issues.
Chester is looking for a competent home where he can further his education and have the best brought out of him in the right hands, the videos speak for themselves showing what a genuine young horse he is and the potential he has got. A smashing sort and is sure to make a versatile and fun horse for someone.

Up to date with wormer, vaccs, dentist.

Open to vetting and viewings welcome.

17.1hh by Van Gogh (Numero Uno).

Benji is kind and easy to do. He is a big impressive horse with huge presence and is admired by all.

He has been produced slowly and carefully with many miles of hacking on Dartmoor in his younger years. He is happy to hack alone or in company.

He has competed up to Newcomers in British Showjumping. We are currently working to improve his flat work where the basics are established and is showing great willingness and acceptance to learn new lateral movements and flying changes. He has also done some arena xc training this winter where he jumped everything first time.

Benji travels well in a lorry or 3.5t box - either alone or in company

He is easy to do on the ground being good to clip, shoe, turnout etc - a yard favourite

Benji is a really lovely horse who is fit and ready for someone to create a partnership with and have fun.

Owned from a 2 year old so home is important. No vices.

Attractive and quality eventer, was in training to race but never ran, has started eventing this year and taken to it really well. Previously in an amateur home. Settled into our routine and system very easily, a nice horse to handle and have around. Double clear at BE100 and also picking up 4th and 6th placings, never had a xc fault.

Good off the leg with three nice and correct paces, flashy paces and will continue to really move well once he gets stronger and already scoring sub 30. Very light and even in the contact. Polite and easy to a fence and just goes in an eggbutt, so far showing good scope and carefulness. Recently been to Chard BS, jumping courses of 1.10m at home with ease. Very easy to handle, and do at the lorry and warm up. Jumps hedges, gates and been xc schooling.

Has also hunted and team chased. Enjoys his work and would be ideal for an individual or family who wants to do a bit of hunting in the winter but have a horse who is quality enough to do some eventing in the summer

Wouldn’t be suitable for a complete novice as only just started eventing and has a sarcoid (doesn’t affect him) which is reflected in price

Good to shoe, clip, load etc

Handsome cob gelding, purchased from Aughrim Cobs in Ireland and professionally backed by Matt Ainsworth.

A really fun horse looking for his next person to bring out his full potential. He has been out hunting, enjoys cross country, and is happiest when he has a job to do. He would make a brilliant fun all-rounder or hunting type for the right rider.

He is mannerly on the ground and safe enough to be handled by small children.
Can live in or out.

He’s good to hack alone or in company, first or last – used to traffic, including farm machinery and cattle, dogs etc.

However he is firmly not a fan of schooling and does not enjoy arena work in any capacity. This stubborn side of him can be quirky and therefore needs a confident, forward-thinking rider.

He is currently having some time off mature and now would really benefit from a 1:1 home where someone can build a bond with him. We strongly feel with consistency and the right person, he will absolutely thrive as he is very much a people person.

This is a lovely, genuine horse who just needs time and the opportunity to do a job he enjoys.

Price reflects the fact he is not currently in work and will be sold from the field.

Bailey is a 9 year old 16hh gelding eligible for ROR. (Baileys Prayer (FR))
I have owned Bailey since he was 3 years old. I purchased him straight off the track.

Bailey has a very sweet personality like a big puppy so would suit someone that could give him lots of love and cuddles as he is very affectionate. Bailey is clever so in order to keep him on his best behaviour, he should have an experienced assertive rider.
Bailey has only been brought back into work recently (4-5 weeks) (I am pregnant and only recently found someone to ride him for me. Prior to this he had been on a break to correct some poor farriery work after returning from a loan home. His feet are back to normal now thankfully!). His fitness and schooling coming on well.

I unfortunately don’t have the time to keep Bailey as I have two competing horses already and a second child on the way.

Bailey has competed up to 90cm with me a few years ago, but Bailey would probably be better suited to a happy hacking or low level competing home. (Possibly some team chasing) We have popped a couple of jumps on Bailey now he is back in work and he is really enjoying that. He will go off a long or short stride and is super at correcting the strides for you coming into a fence!

Bailey absolutely loves to hack out and is a natural born explorer. He is bold and safe out hacking and will hack alone or in company.
Bailey is good to clip, shoe and loads onto trailers (not experienced with bigger lorries so may need some training on this).
Will only go to a 5* experienced home. Please contact me for further info, videos and pics.

Cleo is as lovely as they get. She has been with us for a full hunt season, giving many of our customers wonderful and safe days hunting.
She is only ever ridden in a snaffle and is a total on-the-buckle ride.

Always very chilled out, loads and stands on the lorry, will come off and tie to the side and stand quietly. Easy to tack up and mount from a block, and will stand nice and quietly at the meet. Good with hounds and large crowds of horses, even if the person behind you uses her butt for brakes.

She’s hunted with The Staff College Drag, Surrey Union, Coakham Bloodhounds and The Crawley & Horsham. She’s happy to stay at the back with the non-jumpers or be up front doing all the hedges.

We’ve been cross-country schooling with her around many venues such as East Bysshe, Lockskinners, Littleton Manor & Munstead. She has popped around unaffiliated at Felbridge and Pyecombe in the 80cm SJ. Again, always very chilled in the show environment. You can pop her back on the lorry to walk the course etc. and you don’t even know you’ve got her onboard, which always takes half the stress out of the situation.

To hack, she is very easy alone and with friends, open spaces, traffic, farm machinery and livestock. Where we are based, we have to ride through livestock, cattle and sheep on a daily basis and cross a very busy road with lots of big trucks and artic lorries. We regularly are out in the fields to feed them all with the tractor, which she loves as this means dinner time!

Easy mare, there is not a nap in her, never bucked, reared or bolted. Does not need riding every day. Bred in Ireland & imported in 2024 as a very lightly backed just started rising 4yo: produced correctly and slowly:

Good to load, catch, clip and shoe. Absolutely no vices what so ever.

We would rather she did not go to a novice home as she really does enjoy getting out and about doing the job properly.

Lovely genuine chap who has spent his life hacking and hunting in Ireland. Major is nicely bred on both sides being an old fashioned 50/50 ID X TB.

He is a lovely hack both alone and in company. Happy to go first or last and not strong or silly but with enough engine that he’s nicely forward thinking, he rides off seat/leg or voice aids. Excellent in traffic.

He is still a little green in the school and would benefit from further schooling if he’s going to go on to do a proper job. Major has a forward thinking attitude without actually going anywhere, he stays in a good rhythm but now needs to learn to hold his own balance and body when being asked to go in circles, he’s coming on every day and is keen to please.

He’s brave and got lots of jump and would be fun if produced on to take eventing or show jumping. He’s got 3 good paces and a scopey jump. There’s a lot to like about this horse, he’s a bit rough round the edges but has loads of potential to be a really lovely chap if given the opportunity.

Lovely gent in and out the stable, good to handle, box, catch, clip etc. He’s a genuine sweet horse who will give someone a lot of fun. Price reflects the fact he is green for his age and makes a slight noise in canter (we think will improve with fitness)

He has recently started popping a few small fences, including fillers, showing a natural willingness and potential to progress further. With his attitude and presence, he would make a very smart hunter or working hunter prospect.

No blemishes. A genuine, kind, and sweet-natured boy who is a pleasure to have around.

Here he is! Stunning dun cob gelding! Dun. Irish cob . Gelding . 8yo. 16.2hh

Stable name - Buddy

-Kind nature
-Great temperament
-Becomes part of the family

Buddy has got one of the nicest temperaments you will ever find in a horse. He loves having fuss and attention and will stand to be groomed and pampered for hours.

He is a great allrounder. He schools lovely on the flat and has three balanced paces.

He definitely one to make it to hoys or county level. He is a great versatile cob he also has a lovely jump and has proven to be very willing and honest to a fence. Also recently been xc schooling which he has proven to be very brave and honest.

He is good to hack alone or in company. Not phased by farm machinery or the heaviest of traffic. In my opinion I truly believe you would be a life time trying to find his double.

This gelding is top quality and one that will go far! I believe he would be a great hoys contender for a maxi cob or show hunter.

He is good to load and travel.
Upto date to all vacs, teeth, back etc

Been to a local show this weekend ridden by an 18yo and he was foot perfect all day!

Not suitable for novices as he is a cob with a job!

Shaggy the Legend! Do you want something that has brakes, manners, and a brain but is still great fun.

He’s a lovely 6-year-old gelding, 16.1/2hh and somehow still convinced hes a Labrador on the ground.

Very straightforward. Moves well would do well showing, Hacks alone or in company, Traffic doesn’t bother him (tractors, lorries, chaos — he judges silently and carries on)? Good to box, clip, shoe. Has whipped in and hunted with various packs, been on pleasure rides, schooling, hill rides he’s a landrover defender! Manners better than most dinner guests!

This is the sort that turns up, gets on with the job, and doesn’t spend his spare time plotting your early retirement from horse ownership. Doesn’t need riding every day, I would hunt weds and sat and turn him out between prefers to be in when the weather isn’t nice!

Whether you want to hunt, hack, have fun, or just own something sane enough to restore your faith in horses — he’s your man. Has

Only for sale because of a sad change of direction for his lady owner hanging up her hunting boots.

Shaggy has hunted with the SWWW, Eggesford, Tiverton, Teme Valley, Cottesmore, Cotswold, Dulverton West and Vale TB Harriers. He’s whipped in, field mastered and goes off on his own. He’s equally happy ‘coffee housing somewhere’. Stands like a rock at the meet with hounds literally underneath his front legs, stands stops and goes. Extremely easy, jumps ditches/rails etc. He has 3 good paces on the flat and would do well in the show ring as he moves very well for a bigger horse. Still got some filling out to do so would be a sensible weight carrier. Very easy to do and have at home, current owner juggled hunting, young child and full time job. Stays away from home visiting other packs happily and will stand on the trailer with a net alone happily during breakfast meets or a post hunting cuppa. Has also been to an arena xc hire/SJ and has a great jump. Hacks alone or in company roads, open spaces, heavy traffic no ifs or buts. Confidence giving back and if you can find something jump he’s even happier!

Only for sale as owner sadly not hunting next season onwards due to change of direction and Shaggys heart lies on the hunting field. He’s an armchair ride and is snaffle mouthed all of the time. See pics but he is goat/pig/cow proof as lives on edge of working farm so used to all animals and big traffic. If you want something to jump on and go he’s your man!

Winston is a true gentleman and unicorn!

He has evented to BE100 nearly always sub 30 dr and straight with his jumping with a lovely neat technique. Bold and brave. Very straightforward to ride.

He is an angel in the stable and to do in all ways. Lives in or out.

Hacks alone or in company - my dream hack!

Snaffle mouthed in all phases.

He would be very competitive at grassroots and would be the most perfect amateurs horse that will go out and you’ll always come back with a smile on your face.

No vices, good to load, clip, shoe etc
