Attractive, well-schooled Irish Sports Horse with a genuine competition background looking for a new home due to a change in rider circumstances.
Previously evented to BE Novice as a 5 & 6 year old, before going on to compete successfully in British Dressage up to Medium level. Since then he has been enjoying a quieter lifestyle doing showing, Riding Club activities and plenty of hacking.
He is a very smart, eye-catching horse who would suit someone wanting a quality hack, Riding Club horse or showing prospect, and he would also make an excellent escort horse out with children.
He hacks confidently alone or in company and is well-schooled with a lovely way of going.
Approved for Riding Club Prelim competition for 2026.
Easy to manage
• Good to shoe, clip, load and travel
• Travels well (currently in an EquiTrek)
• Good to handle and straightforward on the yard
• Vaccinations and teeth up to date
• Annual JMB height certificate (158cm)
He sustained a tendon injury in early 2025. There are no visible blemishes or splints and full veterinary records are available.
He can weave at feed time or when stressed, which is easily managed with a V-grill on the stable door.
He is a lovely ride with plenty of quality, but as a former competition horse he can have the occasional sharp moment, so he is not suitable for a novice rider.
This is a very sad sale as a health issue now prevents me from riding and he is far too young and talented to be wasted in the field.
Based near Bristol

Black Country Havana Brown GP saddle (extremely comfortable for longer hacks) available separately.
Serious enquiries welcome.
