- For kind, 5* private home with excellent facilities
- Affiliated dressage, hacking and varied lifestyle
- 24/7 turnout if required
Due to early retirement of warmblood, I am searching for a super friendly, happy, forward thinking, 15hh - 16.2hh forever horse.
For affiliated dressage (in particular, my final years (aged 21) of BD Youth Teams) and a huge variation of hacking, beach rides, clinics, fun rides, occasional jumping etc.
Something that has a little bit of natural presence on the flat would be ideal but not necessarily another warmblood.
Would consider anything from an event horse looking to step down, to a backed and riding away in all 3 paces youngster.
- We have a retired 13.2hh and a 15.2hh, so they must be able to live in a quiet 24/7, mixed turn out herd (with freedom to come in and go as they please).
- Must happily load and travel in a trailer and a lorry, both alone and in company (this is non-negotiable).
- Things like an occasional cribbing, small sarcoids, blemishes etc are all fine, but nothing with any soundness history.
- I am not in a position to gamble on something 'sold from the field'. I need to see it working under saddle and I need to sit on it.
After wasted viewings and failed vettings, I'm not left with a huge budget (which is now 4 figures unfortunately, not 5 figures).
Genuine buyer searching for a genuine horse from a genuine seller. Happy with medical history as long as it's open and transparent.
