The Playn Acre Farm Show Team is a small family run yard catering for all types of horses and ponies for the show ring and performance based competition.

We have many years experience producing all types of horses and ponies for performance, the show ring, sales and hunting.

I spent over ten years in Ireland and mainland Europe (Germany and Holland) breaking and producing all types of horses and ponies before settling back in the UK. Horses I have produced have been world cup finalists, grand prix winners, HOY's finalists and childrens best friends.

Tuition is available for all ages and we are more than happy to produce your animal for you to ride in the ring. We are very much performance based and all our animals have a varied work routine. We have lovely hacking and have access to common ground, a full set of working hunter fences and a bank and cross country fences.

Year round individual turnout available.

• Absolutely stunning 15.2hh, bay, 9 year old, ISH, mare by Painters Row. Damsire Edmund Burke.
• I am very sadly seeking a permanent home for this absolutely wicked little mare.
• Registered BD (Novice), BS (1.05m)) and BE (Novice). Registered name KIEF Pocket Rocket.

Tia is very aptly named and is a huge engine in a small package. She works beautifully on the flat scoring consistent 20’s and low 30’s in her Eventing tests with room for improvement.  Smart mover who makes an attractive picture on the flat.  Established lateral work and simple changes.  Medium paces developing nicely and plenty more to come with strength and training.  Wonderful forward going and sensitive ride who always tries her best to please her rider and is a joy to work with.

Jumping consistent double clears BS- scopey jumper who is incredibly quick in front.  Jumps consistent clear or 4’s in her Eventing SJ.  Confident at 1.05m BS and round a BE Novice track.  Ready to move up to NC.

Tia is a fantastic ride on the XC.  She covers the ground well and is very brave, forward and straight on a line.  Consistent record at BE100 with a win this season.  Just stepped up to Novice with success.  Easy scope for 2* tracks and Junior team potential in the right hands.

Hacks alone and in company.  Exceptionally kind, gentle and sweet natured girl who just loves a fuss.  

Tough and sound- 100% box, shoe, clip etc.  Clean vet history.  Up to date teeth, jabs, physio.

I am seeking a very competent Junior rider in an experienced, competitive home with good training for this little horse.  The right home and match with the rider is my top priority. Forward going, active little horse who thrives from work.  Tia does not have a naughty or nasty bone in her body, however she is a sensitive ride and a big engine with a great jump- Will not suit a novice or nervous rider and will be too much ‘horse’ for your average PC rider coming off ponies. 

In the right home she will be someone’s horse of a lifetime!

Heart breaking sale due to lack of time and financial constraints.

• By Berkely Cruise (Cruising/Cavalier Royale) damsire Flagmount Diamond.
• This smart little mare has been slowly produced and just loves to jump!
• She is exceptionally scopey with a fabulous technique both in front and behind.
• Very careful jumper who is fast against the clock.
• Jumping BS 1.05m successfully with wins and placings.

Beautiful and well made 15.2hh, 7 year old, grey, ISH, mare

Registered name KIEF Cruising for Diamonds.  More than ready for NC at her next show.  We have been carefully building this little mares confidence and have yet to even begin testing the limits on her scope.  She really is just playing at the moment.  Happily popping a 1.20m track at home with loads and loads of jump to spare.  Huge stride- makes distances and back rails with ease!

Works nicely on the flat (although this is far from her favourite discipline) and also XC schooled on numerous occasions.

Zeeva is a fantastic hack and loves hacking out in the open. Has done lots of New Forest hacking and is in her element when cantering out in the open both alone or in company. Snaffle mouth at all times.

Loads and travels well and is 100% box, shoe and clip.

Zeeva will suit a competent Junior jockey or small adult mainly for SJ although she does enjoy variation in her workload and her hacking is extremely important to keep her relaxed and interested.

She began jumping in the ring relatively recently and is now ready to go on and prove what she can do with a talented rider.

Not novice ride (not naughty and no vices but needs a good rider and experienced home)- will only be sold to a knowledgeable, competitive home with plenty of help where we can see her go on to fulfil her potential.

Milo has mainly showjumped, being a careful and bold jumper is cometetive and nearly always placed, he loved his arena events and derby class as he is always up for it when he goes in the ring

He would make a top WHP having good conformation and way of going, my daughter planned to do more of this with him but she now works away from home and am too old!

He would definitely event and loved his x-country training, he takes you forward to a fence but not strong, although 15hh he has a great stride and doesn’t struggle making the distances

I have had great fun with Milo over the 3 years I’ve had him but now would him to go to a competetive home wanting to do WHP, event, as well as showjumping

Milo is the most loving horse in the stable and is easy to do, clip, shoe, travel

Moley (Rosegate Bronze Eagle) is for sale through no fault of his own. Unfortunately due to me requiring surgery (none horse related) and lack of time due to university commitments forces sale

Rising 9yr old registered British Riding Pony with top quality breeding, by Willowcroft Regal Bronze out of Courtland County Fair
AHC at 150.6cm - eligible for Small ISRT/Hack class

Lightly shown with success in hand and under saddle, placing in the top 3 every time with wins in several championships. Moley is still eligible for Novice classes so an exciting opportunity for the right person.

Stunning little horse that will not look out of place on the county circuit

Would also make an excellent dressage prospect as he has 3 beautiful paces with a very expressive walk. Has excelled at unaffiliated level so ready to go out affiliated with a clean BD record

He is not a novice ride as he can be sharp off the leg due to his breeding and therefore he does require a confident, quiet sympathetic rider.
Low mileage at shows so ready for someone to put their own stamp on him

Good to catch, shoe, bath, hack etc.

Top home required for this lovely boy. Heartbreaking sale but he enjoys being in work and is too nice a quality horse to be a field ornament

Sold with entries to GYS

Will come with basic wardrobe. Keiffer dressage saddle and fylde marjorie available with negotiation
