Absolute Gentleman Irish Draught Gelding


Ref #: 411535
  • Versatile type that will do any job
  • Type hard to find
  • Old fashioned ID breeding
£12,500 ONO
  • Irish Draught
  • Grey
  • Gelding
  • 13 years
  • 16.3 hands
  • Versatile type that will do any job
  • Type hard to find
  • Old fashioned ID breeding

The kindest horse you could wish to meet and an absolute gentleman to deal with in every way.

Hector is a beautiful Irish Draught Gelding with very old fashioned breeding, he’s by Moutain Triumph x Crossdown Dancer x Sea Crest (to name a few)

Hector is very reluctantly and very sadly now offered only due to ill health, this has not been an easy decision and ideally his new owner will stay in touch with the odd picture and update.

Previous to this home Hector hunted, he is bold and brave and will jump anything pointed at whilst been mannerly, he has always been with lady riders so is not strong or rude.

In the current home he has been doing bits of everything from show jumping, dressage, hacking and more recently has done a small amount of riding school work.

He is a real ‘husband horse’ who would teach someone how to ride without been ‘dead to the leg’ but safe and sensible.

He loves hacking, he’s fab on open fields or busy roads and will go alone or in company.

Hector schools beautifully, he requires leg without been numb or sharp. He will take such a variety of riders he’s one of those horses that’s just hard to find.

He loves jumping and proves careful over poles as well as solid fences.

Hector will enjoy any type of home from riding club activities, hunting, dressage, low level eventing or hacking: he’s such a happy horse who will turn his hoof to anything.

Absolutely no vices, very easy to have on the yard. Happy to turn out with other horses or alone, good in and out of the stable, good for the farrier, to load and travel, dentist etc

Unfortunately does have some superficial scars on his hind legs from his hunting days that do not effect him.

Up to date with absolutely everything, this horse has been kept like a king and we would love that lifestyle to continue.

Heartbreaking sale of our lovely 16.1 15 year old warmblood x

We have had the privilege of owning the lovely Autumn for the past two years and during that time she has helped my now 16 year old daughter transition from ponies to horses.

Autumn is a lovely person to have on the yard in every way, my petite 11 year old daughter regularly handles her with ease.

Autumn is a pleasure to hack alone and in company. She is level headed in traffic and is more than sensible in open spaces, never bolted, bucked or reared and I can always rely on her to bring my daughter home safely.

Autumn has given my daughter the best two years, we have gone to several stay aways and she has introduced my daughter to BS. My daughter now wants to move up the heights and with Autumn getting older we feel it is unfair to push her out of her comfort zone.

We think the perfect match for Autumn would be a competent adult who enjoys hacking, fun rides and a non competitive home. Autumn loves hacking and we feel that she would thrive in a hacking home.

We would love to find Autumn her forever home so this is of utmost importance to us.

Perfect to be clipped (she falls asleep), load, and for the farrier - she is currently barefoot and has very good feet. Up to date with vaccinations, teeth and worming. Please no time wasters as this is difficult enough as it is. Absolutely no dealers.

Tack can be negotiated separately.

150cm Registered Welsh Section D Mare – 2017**

It is with great sadness that I offer my much-loved mare for sale due to my MS progressing. This is an incredibly difficult decision, so finding the very best home is my absolute priority.

Lady is a registered Welsh Section D mare, born in 2017, by Ionos Llion, out of a mare by (Pennal) Tireve Welsh Flyer. She is a quality, substantial mare with plenty of bone, presence and true Welsh character, making her an ideal weight-carrying type with the ability and scope to excel across a range of disciplines. Standing approximately 149–150cm (not JMB measured), she combines quality with a genuine, kind temperament and has proven herself time and again to be an exceptionally versatile all-round horse. I bought her from the breeder, so all her history is known.

**Driving**

Driving is where she truly shines. She pleasure drives confidently in the heaviest of traffic and absolutely loves her work, always going forward with her ears pricked and looking through the bridle. She carries a lovely light contact in your hand and is responsive without ever being sharp or strong. I have complete confidence driving her in any environment.

She has successfully competed in BDS events including Le Trec, show classes, cones courses and dressage tests. She was Champion at Smiths Lawn, highlighting her quality, trainability and versatility as a driving horse. She has all the attributes to continue progressing and be competitive in the right hands.

**Ridden**

Under saddle, she is equally capable and enjoyable. She has competed at affiliated level, jumped courses up to 1m, hunted and taken part in showing and dressage always scoring well. She is a responsive ride who enjoys having a job to do, yet remains safe and sensible enough for all the family to enjoy. She hacks confidently and is the sort of horse that can turn her hoof to almost anything. She has jumped round Suffolk County WHP course with ease & loves the beach!

She is never sick or sorry, has no vices and is a genuine pleasu8re to own. She is 100% to load, travel, clip and handle, and is easy to do in all ways.

This is a heartbreaking sale, and only the very best home will be considered for this special mare. She is a versatile, reliable and much-loved horse who deserves a home where she can continue to thrive and be appreciated for everything she has to offer. 

Her Hartland harness, Bennington carriage and her fylde ridden tack are also available by separate negotiation.

**POA – serious enquiries only.**

Please get in touch for further information, photos and videos.

Chacco Prince - 17.1hh | 13 years | Gelding | By Chacco Blue
For sale on behalf of owner.

This stunning gelding is a true gentleman. By the legendary Chacco Blue, Chacco Prince has previously competed up to 1.30m while based in Dubai. For the past two years, he has been ridden at a lower level by a teenager in UK and is currently competing at 1.10m with a professional rider.

Chacco Prince has a kind and genuine temperament, though he can be a little shy with new people ( mainly men) , so he would thrive in home where he can build a close bond. He is super safe, a true gentle
Giant.

He would suit an amateur rider looking to enjoy lower-level jumping, flatwork, or general all-round fun. Equally, he could step back up the levels with a quiet, capable rider.
He has done some arena eventing which he enjoyed.

A special home is sought for this very special horse who deserves the best care and attention.

I have very much enjoyed having Chacco in my yard and he will be sorely missed

  • He would make an ideal grassroots or U18s horse

Dusty is a striking 9-year-old chestnut gelding by Billy Tudor (Cevin Z) out of a cavalier Royale mare.

He began his eventing career in August last year and has finished in the top seven in all five of his BE100 starts to date. He won his first GO100 at Bicton despite never having previously seen a cross-country fence or dressage boards.

Most recently, Dusty led his dressage section with an impressive score of 24.8. He would make an ideal grassroots or U18s horse, while also having the scope and ability to progress up the levels in the future, as he is still very much at the beginning of his eventing career. Fit and entered in the novice at Kingston Maurward this weekend.

Prior to eventing, Dusty competed successfully in showjumping up to 1.30m, so he could equally return to pure showjumping if desired.
Dusty is exceptionally easy to handle both at home and away at competitions. Hacks alone and in company.

Despite standing almost 17hh, he is straightforward to ride and I am only 5’4”. He is a kind, affectionate horse with a lovely temperament, and we are keen to find him the perfect home where he can continue to thrive.

Reluctant sale due to ride injury.

Really lovely family who would suit a teenager or an adult. Freddie has been used recently for hacking and charity rides and has done some riding school work .

He is very happy working on his own or riding with a group of others, a really well mannered chap to ride and has the most comfortable armchair canter!

Freddie is good riding in open spaces, doesn't get strong or silly, he has been XC schooling where he was very sensible and happily jumped little rails, hedges etc. and he happily jumps a full course of show jumps.

A great chap to hack out, happy to go out alone or with others, he is very reliable even in the heaviest of traffic, we use him as a babysitter to all our youngsters!!

He is very kind to handle and is really good with the children to catch, lead, tie up and groom.

Freddie enjoys a bath and loves the attention and fuss that he gets from everybody. He will happily load and travel in a trailer or lorry and he is easy for the farrier.

He is a real schoolmaster and is looking to be someone’s best friend!

  • Irish Draught
  • Chestnut
  • Gelding
  • 7 years

  • Owned since a foal, never thought id sell as hes a very special horse! Absolute gentleman!

Where do I start! I purchased Hercules as a foal from Ireland. As a 3 year old I showed him in hand a a few local venues taking Champion a few times. Feb 2023 he was backed, April 2023 his under saddle competition career started.

So when he was 4 years old he was:
* Nottinghamshire County Show Champion and qualified for LIHS
* Stars Champion of Champions Hunter Champion
*LIHS Middleweight/Heavyweight Hunter Championship 9th with a friend riding him
*won numerous championships showing at various venues

5 years of age
*LIHS Middleweight/Heavyweight Hunter Championship 2nd with me riding him
*Competed Novice and Ele British Dressage scoring up to 75.4%
*British Dressage Associate Draught Championships, Novice & Elementary Champion
* won numerous championships showing at various venues

6 years of age:
*Competed in x3 Medium British dressage scoring between 69-72%
*Qualified for Associate British Dressage Draught Championships at Ele and Medium level (didn’t go to Championships as I the rider had surgery)
*Qualified LIHS Middleweight/Heavyweight Hunter Championship (didn’t go to Championships as I had surgery)

When Hercules was 4 years of age my friends 5 year old daughter rode him in the arena, walk, trotting, circles, he was in an outline it was VERY special to watch. He is genuinely the safest horse to ride there is! Hercules is very trainable and takes everything in his stride, his lateral work, half passes he gets 7.5’s for, his extended trot he can now get a 7 for and every score sheet there's plenty of 7.5 even the odd 8!

He's done numerous fun rides, gallops, beach rides, proving safe and sensible, never getting strong or silly. He's jumped logs and small xc jumps but nothing big. I've not jumped him at home other than the odd cross pole as its not my thing!
I said that id never sell Hercules as he's the most special horse I've ever owned, however I'm 51 and my body is struggling. I've had more down time than ridable time for the past 10 months from surgeries and I've decided to sell both horses as my body unfortunately isn’t coping!

Last March Hercules started to make a noise so July last year he had a successful tie back operation which now means he makes NO noise when ridden and is now able to go out and win any showing class. He also has more energy for the dressage so it was a wise decision made last year.

Hercules has the most adorable temperament and is easy in every way! The only thing he doesn’t like is tractors, wagons and water! I don’t hack him from home as our road is 60mph and he isn’t great with big vehicles but I have trailered him to other locations and hacked him where the roads are quieter and he's fine. On fun rides he doesn’t like to get his feet wet!

Hercules has no vices, blemishes, he has clean legs, no lumps or bumps, good feet and a beautiful brain! I'm very particular who buys Hercules as I love this horse.

  • Gelding
  • 12 years

  • Jumped up to Fox hunters
  • Super easy all rounder
  • Would excel in multiple disciplines

Kasanova is a lovely horse looking for his next home.

Previously jumped up to Foxhunter level and has competed up to 1.10m with me. I've schooled him around 1.20m fences and he has plenty of scope. He enjoys his jumping and is brave and willing.

He schools nicely on the flat with three lovely paces and I think he'd do very well in a dressage home. Equally, he would make a fantastic hunter or team chaser as he absolutely loves being in a herd environment and is bold and confident when out with company.

He hacks well in company and is happy going through open fields, remaining calm and sensible. He can be a little nervous hacking alone and looks to his rider for confidence, so he would suit a competent rider rather than a novice or nervous one.

He is currently barefoot (previously shod) and stands perfectly for the farrier. He is good to handle and comes back into work very easily after time off. He has had the last couple of months fairly quiet due to my work commitments and is currently back in light work.

Travels well and happily stands on box- travelled in a 3.5/4.5/7.5. He does occasionally put up a small fight- quickly gives up never takes more than 5 mins (it is very very rare he wont load first time)

Being completely honest, he does need sedating to clip as he finds it very ticklish. He also has annual hock injections and has a bone chip in one hock. When maintained, this causes him no issues and has never stopped him doing his job.

There is a blip on his BS record where he and I simply didn't gel, but this doesn't reflect him.

This is a very genuine sale due to rider circumstances and lack of time. Looking for the right home where he can be enjoyed and thrive.

Can come with saddle for small extra.

Monty is looking for a new best friend/forever home .

Someone who enjoys hacking , a bit of schooling and the odd riding club level dressage .

Monty is a well bred ex event horse , he is a very well schooled /educated relaxed chappie but due to some medical issues that will be FULLY disclosed he would suit someone experienced and balanced wanting to have a quieter life, due to those medical issues Monty would not suit a home wanting him to jump or wanting him to be out every weekend competing.

Monty will produce a super test and thoroughly enjoys going out training and competing, Monty also enjoys hacking and is forward thinking and confident out on his own and in company.

Monty would benefit from a smaller lighter rider and to be preferably kept on flatter fields as ours are very hilly along with our hacking so there is no let up, we feel this will benefit his long term well being .

Monty loves being out in the field , he wouldn’t be a horse to keep in all through the winter but it also happy to come in ie during the night or in during the day what ever your routine maybe .

Monty has no vices at all and is exceptionally easy to have around . Homes absolutely will be vetted as we really don’t want this lovely boy passed around.

This is a heartbreaking decision for Monty’s owner so your suitability for him is priority.

A truly lovely 16.3hh Full Irish Draught mare with the temperament, ability and presence to stand out from the crowd.

By Moyough Legacy out of a Dowdstown Belle mare by Crosstown Dancer, She combines traditional Irish Draught breeding with proven performance. She has a competitive record at EI90 level and is ready to continue enjoying a varied and successful career with her next rider.

She is the sort that gives you confidence. Brave and genuine to a fence, she takes you forward without being strong or silly and is always ridden in a snaffle. She has three comfortable paces, is light in the hand, works willingly from the leg and is straightforward on the flat. Despite her height, she rides smaller and is easy to manage both on the ground and under saddle.

She would be ideally suited to a Riding Club, Pony Club or grassroots eventing home and would make a fantastic first horse for a competent rider stepping up from ponies. Equally, she is quality enough to be competitive in workers, showjumping, eventing or as an all-round family horse.

A pleasure to handle in every way and a genuine horse to have around. Good to load, travel, catch, shoe and clip. Hacks confidently and is happy to turn her hoof to whatever is asked of her.

A quality Irish Draught mare who is ready to go out and have fun immediately. Serious enquiries welcome.

RDA Groups Across the UK Are Seeking Exceptional Equines!

Each offers a 5* welfare-focused home, professional care, and a role helping disabled children and adults experience the joy and benefits of equines.

Our equines are fit, responsive, healthy and athletic — taking part in a wide range of exciting activities:

  • Riding
  • Carriage Driving
  • Vaulting
  • Show Jumping
  • Endurance
  • … and more!

From smaller, forward-going ponies to strong, weight-carrying cobs — RDA groups need equines of all types, sizes and abilities. 

________________________________________

WHAT WE LOOK FOR:

  • Calm, sensible and people-friendly horses
  • Sound and healthy equines able to adapt to a varied lifestyle
  • Horses happy in the school, hacking, or working in open spaces
  • Animals comfortable with different handlers and occasional mobility aids
  • Steady temperaments but with enough athletic ability to stay fit and engaged

Each RDA group has their own needs, but temperament and trainability always come first. All the equines undergo a Pre-Purchase Examination.
