Gary - Via Galactica - is a 16hh, TB, Gelding, grandson to Galileo. He only ran once on the flat and he's just not a racehorse, he's a gentle soul who's nice to everyone, grown ups, children or other animals,

Gary went to the beach to get some ad videos after 6 months in the field with no fuss or bother, he hacks on a long rein and he goes alone or in company, good in traffic even standing to wait for the train to pass (see video), vice free and easy to handle.

Gary would make a great project for someone or he'd be happy plodding around the roads he really is versatile and would try his best no matter what the job is

I bought him as a project but I've just not had the time, he has a naturally flowing stride but is a fairly blank canvas in the school.

As far as I am aware he's never jumped under saddle but I've loose schooled him and he was jumping for fun, showed bags of scope and made a great shape over a decent size fence (see video)

Based near Tenby, South West Wales

Experienced 5* home only as I only want the best for him

Searching For A Family Friend / Allrounder


Ref #: 404421

  • Lightweight Cob / Connemara Or Similar
  • 14.2 - 15.2hh max. Age - 6 - 13 years
  • A Gentle Natured, Polite Character
  • Lightweight Cob / Connemara Or Similar

I am just beginning my search for a trustworthy, best friend type to welcome to our kind, knowledgeable, family home. Our horses are treated as part of our family & they receive the absolute best of care. I would be happy to provide references & to keep in touch.

I have ridden for several years & consider myself a knowledgeable & capable rider. However, due to ongoing health issues with my horse, who is now retired, I haven’t ridden as consistently in more recent years & so I am no longer as confident as I once was. Therefore, I am seeking a laid back, best friend type, who does not need riding most days to remain safe & sane.

We will be enjoying fun hacks from home, attending organised pleasure rides, forest trips, XC schooling & some clinics…. maybe the odd local show in future - but just for fun! I will often be hacking alongside my young daughter on her (sometimes quirky!) horse, so it is especially important that I find a level-headed, trustworthy type who I can depend on. Due to us going out in our horsebox regularly, I would like to find a horse who is good to load / travel &, most importantly, who remains calm & polite to handle & ride in different environments.

Our horses are kept at home with us on a quiet yard. I would love to find a gentle natured, polite character & a true best friend type.

We live in a rural area & although we generally meet very little traffic, when we do, it is often likely to be a tractor/farm vehicle. Therefore, it is hugely important that my new horse is confident around this type of traffic.

* I do appreciate that no horse is ‘perfect’ & that ‘bombproof’ does not exist & I am open to compromise but please do just be honest about any possible known ‘issues’ as I will not buy unseen & would want to have any potential horse vetted *

We are based in Norfolk so ideally looking for something in or around East Anglia but would travel further if plenty of info, videos/photos could be provided beforehand. I have a sensible budget & very relaxed & loving forever home for the right horse.

  • 15.3 8 years
  • Lovely relaxed temperament

My Lovley Roxy, Ive owed her since a unbroken 3 year old, I left her to mature a little longer before I broke her in at 4 by myself. She's been out and done dressage and was super relaxed and enjoyed her outings and was placed every time.
She is stunning with a relaxed nature.

Ive kept her on DIY livery so every day I've seen her and looked after her.

The past couple of years she has not been out competing, just hacking and schooling becouse of my circumstances, waste of a talented mare, id love her to go out competing again and do some showing, Ive not done any jumping with her just out once x/c and poles in school as I don't have help.

My daughters have hacked and enjoyed her but now don't have the time and Ive not got the time as of work commitments.

She has no vices, and home is more important than price and she can come with a full wardrobe, shes not really for the larger person and although she is lazy and relaxed she still is a Horse so no novice please
I love her so much and this a really hard decision for me.

This gorgeous mare was shown lightly at county level last year with great placings. She is super correct with 3 very good paces and outsantanding canter !! She was ridden for a few months last year then turned away to mature.

She is lovely and light with snaffle mouth, has hacked on her own and in company, behaved impeccably at shows, good to box, catch, feet trim etc. She is ready now for someone to make their own to show or general all round riding. She is 4yrs old so please no time wasters or joyriders as this is a very special.

She has high value to the breed herd after her ridden career is done, she was inspected and accepted into Class 1 of the IDHS stud book as a 2yr old. Her pedigree contains some of the most prolific show winning mares and stallions of genetic value.

5yo 16hh Irish Sports Horse Gelding, stunning steel grey

He is a striking 5-year-old Irish Sports Horse gelding standing approximately 16hh, with full recorded traditional breeding. He is a quality young horse with the talent, scope, and attitude to progress up the levels, making him an exciting prospect for a competent rider looking for a future eventer, showjumper, or quality allrounder.

He is a forward-going, athletic horse who shows excellent natural ability over a fence. He has already been introduced to both show jumps and cross-country fences, where he has proven to be careful, bold, and scopey, naturally taking you to a fence with confidence. He has also attended a number of unafliated shows, gaining valuable experience away from home.

On the flat, he is established in walk, trot, and canter on both reins and continues to improve with his schooling. He has a trainable attitude and a willing outlook, giving him the potential to develop into a very smart competition horse or even a future schoolmaster with further mileage.

He hacks happily alone or in company and is sensible out and about. He has seen farm machinery and is good in traffic, proving to be level-headed for his age.

He is well mannered on the yard and easy to have around. He is good to tack up, stands quietly to be mounted, and has a kind, genuine temperament. On the ground he is easy to handle, good for shoeing, clipping, grooming, and leading to and from the field.

This is a genuine young horse with a bright future, but due to his forward nature and age he is not suitable for novices. He would thrive with a confident rider looking to produce a talented young horse.

Top quality Traditional gelding

  • Cob
  • Piebald
  • Gelding
  • 8 years
  • 14.3 hands (LHC)
  • Good mover and well marked
  • Unshown to date- Fresh face for the ring!
  • Kind and willing

A real solid 146cm, flashy traditional who will hold his own in the county show ring or be a fun all rounder for a competent rider.

Thomas is a lovely cob and is a forward thinking ride, he is not a stuffy kick along cob and as such needs a rider who is used to a turbo cob type.

He was bought by current owner for HOYS / RI classes but owner is not well enough to take him in the ring herself and sadly daughter has lost interest, so he’s been a bit wasted and has just hacked round over the winter.

He’s got great paces and will really flick his toes on the flat, he’s got a lot of power and needs to be given an appropriate job, either showing , possibly dressage with a bit more flat work, doing RC etc.

He also enjoys his jumping and pops small fences happily for a change of activity. He’s the type who thrives on work so someone active who wants to really get stuck in would suit him best.

He was started under saddle late and as such is still a bit green for his age but very willing to learn and is a kind soul.

Thomas enjoys his hacking both alone and in company and is excellent on the road. He will go first or last.

He’s a lovely cob to have on the yard, happy to live in or out, good to catch, bath, clip/trim, shoe and polite in the stable.

Seen at livery.

Available to 10 star home. DREAM young horse for someone looking for an easy life! Jack has been in same home since two old he’s got the sweetest temperament we have ever come across.

He has been professionally backed and educated but is ridden by all sorts of riders including children. He has never been rushed and has done abit of literally everything and anything .

He has such a steady head on him he is never sharp and is really anyone’s ride but with potential to go up the levels if needed. He has done abit of hunting with me and working hunter/ cross country training and is currently out competing with my dressage mad friend winning BD at his first outing.

She takes him to weekly lessons and clinics by herself she is more on the nervous side and loves to borrow jack! He is unfortunately not the right horse for me as I like to go alot faster round a course. He is very easy to ride not lazy, in a snaffle very comfortable canter ! He’s brilliant in traffic and hacks out on a busy road by himself or in the company of other horses he is great to school on open fields and doesn’t get fizzy.

He would make a nice county show hunter when he fills out and is eligible for Irish draught classes as he’s full draught. He has lovely manners in and out the stable good to load and travel he’s got good bare feet. He doesn’t have vices he’s the most easy going boy (gets bullied by a Shetland in the field) open to vet!

Always very sound no health issues ever. does have very very small sarcoid / 3 juvinile warts underneath by his sheath. area that we treat with a natural cream. Not a mark on him clean limb straight. He has a good honest jump and pops over everything crosss county and fine with all fillers. Is hacked out by an 11 year old girl .

Only for sale as bought to sell once all training had been put into him he’s been an absolute pleasure somebody will have a fantastic horse of a life time with him.

Please change advert details from colt to gelding! Thank you

Wanted genuine, safe horse for 10*, knowledgeable, forever home


Ref #: 403610

  • 10* forever home on a beautiful private gated estate in Central Scotland
  • Mare or gelding aged between 5 and 12 years, 15.2hh plus

I am looking for a genuine horse to offer a 10* forever home on a beautiful private gated estate in Central Scotland, with excellent stabling, grazing, and endless hacking. This horse will join my much-loved horse of 20 years, along with my hunter who has sadly been prematurely medically retired, so a knowledgeable, caring, and experienced home is guaranteed.

References can happily be provided.

I am ideally looking for a mare or gelding aged between 5 and 12 years, 15.2hh plus, and no greys, cobs, or arabs please. I have extensive hacking, so must be good in traffic, non-spooky and no nappers, buckers, rearers please. I like really forward going horses, so something that is forward thinking and well-schooled would be ideal

Temperament is very important, so the horse must be kind and easy to handle on the ground and good to clip, shoe, catch, and load. I am looking for a horse with a nice attitude and willing nature, that is straightforward to work with and enjoys its job. I do not jump, so it does not matter whether the horse jumps or not.

I have previously competed in RIHS and HOYS qualifiers and so would like something smart and mannerly that will go in a nice outline. I do not mind a horse that has been retired from the show ring and looking for a quieter life or a change of direction. Happy for superficial blemishes but no health conditions/previous injuries please.

Any potential horse will need to pass a vetting and must have no stable vices - no cribbers/windsuckers please!

Based in central Scotland so sensible distances please but willing to travel for the right horse.

Please email in the first instance with full details and photos would be a plus.

As I do not sell on, no silly prices please.
