Our Beautiful Boy


Ref #: 399583
  • A lovely mover, he has three good paces
  • He is forward going and enjoys his work
£3,800 OVNO
  • Thoroughbred
  • Chestnut
  • Gelding
  • 10 years
  • 16.1 hands
  • A lovely mover, he has three good paces
  • He is forward going and enjoys his work

Tentatively putting feelers out to see if there is a suitable and loving home for our beautiful boy now that our daughter has gone to university; he has been the perfect mother/daughter share for us over the past 3 years.

He is a striking 16’1 chestnut TB gelding rising 10 years who came to us straight out of racing sound 3 years ago and therefore qualifies for RoR. A lovely mover, he has three good paces and has done a bit of everything, although the two of them have focussed on their dressage and have been successful. The video clip shows some recent flat work, XC schooling and loose jumping.

He is forward going and enjoys his work. Equally happy to hack out alone or in company he loves to go out for adventures. He is steady, sensible, good in traffic and the open spaces of Salisbury Plain. He has proven himself to be a good nanny horse and does not get silly, spooky or nappy.

We had a successful ‘kissing spines’ op done in April 2025 (vertebrae, not ligaments) which has transformed his way of going. The rehabilitation was done patiently and correctly (led at all stages by physio and vets) and so it has been a great investment in his his long-term health. Due to this, it would probably be sensible to suggest a 70kg weight limit.

Always snaffle-mouthed, good to shoe, clip, plait up and trailer load. He likes a neck and shoulder scratch, is consistently good to catch and handle and is a sweet boy. He can require a sensitive hand when grooming, rugging and tacking and would struggle with winter turnout in mud - he is currently turned out on well-drained soil.

Three years of vet, physio and dental history are available on request. Fully up to date with all vaccinations.

Prospective new homes would need to be checked for suitability.

Includes a fitted 17” Thorowgood T7 compact HW saddle.

SMART ALL ROUNDER / ROR ELIGIBLE

  • Lovely temperament
  • Moves beautifully
  • An excellent allrounder with a great attitude

  • 16.1 hands
  • Lovely temperament
  • Moves beautifully
  • An excellent allrounder with a great attitude

Dee is a well bred mare who was lightly raced but proved too slow. She was privately bred and trained on a small family yard before being sold to us when she was six.

She has been very easy for my teenage daughter to retrain and has proved to be an excellent dressage horse winning all of her competitions.

She is a brave jumper and loves show jumping and cross country - just takes everything in her stride, never stops or refuses and holds real potential for someone to carry on her education in this sphere.

Dee has attended pony club rallies, riding club training sessions, local events and competitions. She is well schooled with three nice paces. Dee is excellent on the ground and easy to handle, she loads and travels well (we have a trailer). She is lovely to hack out and is happy to go alone or in company - doesn't nap and is 100% in all traffic - used to farm machinery etc.

In the summer she is out 24/7 and during the winter stabled at night. She is happy with or without company. She is good for the farrier, vet, dentist, etc and up-to-date with vaccinations.

She has been seen to pace in the field but this is only at meal times. No other vices.

Sad sale of a beautiful horse, but daughter now away at university. Lots of photos and videos available.

5* home essential.

Mount Brandon
16.2h 6yr old Bay Irish Thoroughbred
Purchased in May 2025 started retraining and now showing 3 beautiful paces. He will make a lovely all rounder or RoR contender just in need of some more experience as is lacking due to work commitments. Great scope to make good jumper with more time, training and experience.
Declan is a lovely, genuine boy who tries so hard and always wants to please his rider, and will try anything you ask of him.
Loves having a job and thrives of being in work. Unfortunately he is currently out of work due to my work commitments but wouldn't take much to bring him back just needs to build his muscle back up.
Passed a five stage vetting when bought and never had any problems.
Priced to sell for a hassle free, quick sale as i have no time for him due to work. And he is too good to be wasted in field.
No time-wasters as i now desperately need stable.

Weatherby's well bred TB mare - Natural horsemanship, Proven Broodmare, Quiet Companion

FOR SALE OR LOAN

Ref #: 365555

  • Bach- Nijinsky - Northern Dancer
  • Potential Natural Horsemanship / Horse Agility
  • Excellent proven broodmare - Produced an incredible Connemara x TB by Josie Jump in 2024
For sale or loan from a private genuinely loving home, a pretty and sweet natured 15.2-15.3hh 16 y.o very well bred Weatherby's National Hunt ex racehorse Thoroughbred mare who has just been a mum for the last 6 years of her life. She has not been ridden / worked in any way for 6 years.

I may consider loaning her if she was kept in West Sussex

Now needs a new experienced home either as a proven broodmare or could potentially be brought back into lighter work with the right person. She did race, just didn't like it so she is ROR eligible.

She apparently did do a bit of show jumping and cross country in-between racing and being a mum before her current home where she has just been a broodmare for the last few years.

A video of her jumping hurdles can be seen in this advert below the description.

She would also make a nice natural horsemanship project or do some fun horse agility with.

She has been an incredible broodmare producing outstanding wonderful natured and strongly built offspring. Has taken first time both naturally and via AI. Foals easily and is a great mum, just knows her job well.

Produced a truly oustanding Connemara cross TB foal by the very sought after Josie Jump in 2024. Huge potential to produce the same again.

This mare is a very good do-er with NO HEALTH ISSUES and good barefoot kept hooves (professionally equine podiatrist trimmed). Upto date with vaccines, teeth rasping and is on a worming programme with consistantly clear worm tests.

She is used to being with mares and geldings but is scared of being bullied so needs quieter companions.

She is good to handle and transport.

Will only go to a 5 star loving and caring home with proper experience and knowledge of ex racehorse thoroughbreds!

Only still available due to a continuous stream of people lying to me about what they can actually offer for this mare. Please do not enquire about her unless you can genuinely provide the right experienced loving and caring home with proper facilities to keep such a horse. This will be checked.

Scammers will not be tolerated!

Please message me through Horsequest with any questions

£6,000
  • Thoroughbred

  • Gelding
  • 11 years
  • 16.2 hands
  • Nicely schooled, not sharp or spooky
I have owned him for 4 years, he is nicely schooled, not sharp, likes the slower lane in life.
Stands perfectly to get on, always comes out with a positive attitude, he enjoys to learn and try new things, never needed to lunge before getting on.
He will tootle along on the buckle end if you’ve had a busy day at work or collect himself when we are going out to a clinic or competition. He is very mannerly schooled and gives you a real confident and comfy ride, he knows his job and is forgiving if you get it wrong.
Always scores high 60’s in prelim never out of the placing.

We have had a go at side saddle last year which he took to amazingly. ROR eligible

Always snaffled mouthed, great to hack out, mostly done on his own. He happily canters steady in stubbles. Lives out at present. Upto date with everything, ready to go out and about.

He does wind suck (price reflects this) but ticks every other box so please do not be put off by this, does not affect his weight he is a chunky monkey!

Willonly be sold to a 5 star home, not an easy decision to sell but work and family commitments are a juggling act and he deserves more than I can give him.
