• Passport name: Wharane
• 16.3hh Black Chunky thoroughbred.
• 2013 - 7yrs old
• Based in Worcester

Texas is a loveable character, he has a great attitude and is always snaffle mouthed, due to his age he can sometimes be green but he is never nasty and is often hacked out and schooled by my older mum, he is very affectionate and sweet so will follow you round the paddock wanting love and attention.

He has three established paces and would excel in any sphere, so I would love him to go to a knowledgable home to continue his education.
He hunted last season including Cubbing, Opening meet and Boxing Day hunt safely Jumping both hedges and rails with ease.
He has competed in both non-affiliated Dressage and Combined training events with lots of scope and a very promising dressage, he is very much a judge pleaser.
Eligible for ROR classes as he was too slow for racing so ‘retired’ at 3 years old.

He hacks alone or in company and loves his hacking so is great in traffic and with tractors, he is perfect to clip, shoe and load - very much a gentle giant! His only fault is he does windsuck when bored, but if there’s food to eat he will eat instead ! I have known and ridden him since he was 3yrs old and have owned him since a 5 year old. Happy to be stabled or live out all year.

I have lots of videos and photos i can send on WhatsApp of schooling, hacking, dressage competitions, showjumping round and videos of him out hunting.

I also have videos of him in the school with novices having a trot around and he is good as gold however being a throroughbred I wouldn’t say he is a novice ride type - He has a very sane head and a lovely temperament but he is not a ‘kick along’ or ‘big cob’.

Please no time wasters, ridiculous offers or trial requests, it’s hard enough to part with him in the first place.
He comes with rugs and his bridle but saddle is not included in the price.

Please WhatsApp me on 07454 176168 for more information and photos/ videos.

• Classy little horse to go forward in Eventing or a nice prospect for a teenager in PC / RC

Classy little horse to go forward in Eventing or a nice prospect for a teenager in PC / RC.

His flatwork is progressing very well and he's displaying 3 balanced paces, improving all the time. He has a lovely attitude to work and learns quickly so he is very trainable.

He loves his jumping, has done plenty of grid work, has jumped round a full course of show jumps and has been XC schooling.He has a lot of scope and is bold over all types of fence including steps, ditches, hedges, tables and water. He is eligible for all ROR classes as he has raced, but on the Flat only so he has started his jumping education with us from scratch.

He has been out with the Bloodhounds and was very well behaved.

A talented little horse who is ready to go out and compete with a competent rider asa the shows / events get going again.

100% box, shoe, clip, traffic. Hacks out alone and in co, also ride and leads well both ways. Easy and straightforward in and out of the stable but cribs when bored, hence the price. He is a young TB so no Novice riders please, or time wasters.

• He will have a go at jumping anything, he enjoys it a lot and has done xc / showjumping

16.1hh dark bay, 15yo French Thoroughbred Gelding.

I bought Wally out of training 6years ago (having been a successful chaser) as a safe and savvy horse for me to point to point. He did this splendidly for a couple of seasons, and in those years we have done most other things too! 

He hunts, he has taken me to Arena UK Dressage Champs (Intro & Prelim), won RoR showing classes, and nanny’s out our ponies and youngsters to boot. He will have a go at jumping anything, he enjoys it a lot and has done xc/showjumping and pole work aplenty, but can be uncareful.

He is ‘reasonably’ straightforward, but not for a novice or heavy hands. He has no real antics unless he is super fit and fresh (then the racehorse tries to come out!). 

On the ground, he is like a pet and I would trust him with anybody. Loves to be clipped- even face and ears he falls asleep! A* pupil in every respect with ground manners.

Loving and knowledgeable home essential. Price not open to offers. No trials or loans.

• Rodney really is one of kind.
• Kind sweet lovely nature.
• He really is ready to turn his hoof to anything.
• 3 nice paces.

Currently being ridden by a 14 year old, he was retrained out of racing two years ago. He is a chunky TB with a nice short coupled body and well put together.

He is well schooled and responsive without being hot and silly and really just wants to please his rider.

He hacks out well in company and safe and sane in traffic including tractors.

He will make a fantastic grassroots eventer, all rounder, ROR show horse, riding horse or just be an amazing all rounder. He would be a perfect mother daughter share, or for someone that is more competitive to bring on.

He isnt going to be the next Milton or top eventer but what he will do is to the best of his ability for you and give you a lot of fun.

He is good in all aspects, box, shoe, load bath. Quiet enough for novices to ride but good enough for more experienced.

He is very sadly for sale due to relationship break up and owner would dearly like to keep in touch with him.

• Sound & sane
• Taking to retraining
• Three good balanced paces

Pink is a very sound horse with three good paces. He’s taking well to schooling, already working well on the flat and over jumps.

He was retired from racing sound and well, just didn't really take to racing. Raced lightly with no history of lameness.

Will hack quietly by himself, good in traffic.

In the school Pink is already going on the bridle, and genuinely enjoying schooling. He’s a smart mover who could be competing dressage comfortably by the end of the year.

When racing over hurdles he proved a neat jumper and has started (steadier) jumping with style. Quite a people horse who would like a one-to-one relationship.

Surprisingly good feet (so the farrier says), good to handle, load etc.

Does windsuck in the stable and have a sarcoid.

Being sold on behalf of trainer. Only a good knowledgeable home.

9yr old, grey, 17hh, gelding by Great Palm

Skittle is a top class RoR, with great results last season; 2nd Devon county open RoR, 1st novice RoR, 2nd open RoR and reserve champion Royal Bath and west and winner of the open RoR at Royal Cornwall! He is amazingly mannerly and always gives the judge a fantastic ride. He loves a big occasion and isn’t fazed by even the scariest and buzziest of rings. He is a real showman ! 

His striking looks and amazing movement are always sure to catch the judges eye ! He qualified for the RoR Aintree finals both novice and open and also for the Hickstead derby meeting for 2019 and 2020! 

Skittle was very lightly raced ptp; he didn’t show the same enthusiasm he shows in the show ring! Aswell as an RoR skittle would also do very well in large riding horse classes, winning several locally

The plan for this season was to do side saddle classes but for obvious reasons that hasn’t happened, but i am sure he would do brilliantly as a lady’s hunter

Skittle is fantastic to handle and easy to do everything to, he’s vice free, 100% to box, clip, catch, shoe etc. He’s a really loving character and a lovely chap to have around! He’s good to hack alone or in company, however is spooky on his own. He’s good in traffic and loves a pub ride over the moor. He enjoys fun rides and going to the beach with the dogs. Rides and leads. Never cold backed and not the sort the needs riding everyday

Skittle has all the right attributes to make a brilliant dressage horse. He does a beautiful dressage test, in fact he is unbeaten, dressage judges love his big flowing movement and wonderful obedience. He has had scores of 73%+. This winter he qualified for the good bye fly’s Rc dressage championship and was winner of the 2019 championship!  He also qualified for the second round of the dengie winter league championship with Pc

He is very willing to please and extremely trainable. He thrives on schooling sessions and loves learning new things! 

Skittle has xc schooled jumping all obstacles; steps, ditches, water etc. He has competed in hunter trials gaining clear rounds. Skittle would easily get the time up through the levels with his amazing big stride covering the ground beautifully. Skittle has had many sj jumping lessons showing lots of scope and agility. Skittle makes light work of a grid and is very careful. He easily pops 1.10 at home. He just now needs competition practice

He is a fantastic hunter, stands beautifully even at the biggest meets. He has hunted with various different packs covering all types of terrain. He is clever and careful at crossings, pops a ditch and any hunt jumps. Can become keen at times but manageable

He is fantastic with hounds and other horses!

We have owned skittle since a three year old, this therefore makes this a heartbreaking sale that’s only caused due to a change in circumstances

• Huge future for this kind natured, good looking young horse who is a real pleasure to ride

She is a lovely mare who measures at 15.2hh. She has the most fantastic temperament and anyone could ride her.

She moves well, with three correct paces and is very well balanced. Not spooky or sharp, unfazed by traffic and snaffle mouth.

Fantastic opportunity to buy a young horse with a wonderful temperament. Would suit a small adult, ladies or juniors horse to do any job - dressage, hacking, eventing/show jumping in the future.

Qualifies for ROR classes

• Has jumped, cross country schooled, etc

16.1 Thoroughbred Chestnut Gelding. Eligible ROR - raced twice as a 5 year old. He came to us quite weak but willing. We started his training but as he had a sudden growth spurt we chucked him out in the field to mature.

He was started again this year (later due to COVID) but has come in more mature and stronger and therefore able to cope with what he was being asked.

Established flat work, and seems to have found his niche with dressage. We have taken him to two unaffiliated competitions and he won both his prelims (68% & 71%) and was second in his novice tests (would have been first in one of them if the jockey had not forgotten where where was going)!

Travelled easily in our 3.5t horsebox. Tacked up in the lorry park, worked in with everyone else and was easy, chilled and relaxed.

Easy to hack out either alone or in company. Easy to do in the stable, clip, etc. Has jumped, cross country schooled, etc before he was turned out.

Sad sale through no fault of his own - home more important than price. No dealers or tyre kickers please!

Polly is very sweet natured to handle and loves attention.

She is solid mare with good conformation and three beautiful and well balanced paces.

Polly is light in your hand, but is also responsive to your leg.

Polly is willing to a fence, with a lovely forward thinking attitude.

She last raced in 2010 so will be eligible for ROR.

She is up to date with vaccinations.

Polly has been seen to wind suck which does reflect in the price, however this does not effect her performance in anyway.

Harvey came out of racing in 2019 after only racing twice, racing was just not for him, he retired sound, I have now owned him for a year & in this time he has done a bit of everything.

Dressage - This is his weakest phase, but is improving all the time. He moves nicely and is a forward thinking boy, he has just began some lateral work, proving to be a quick learner and always tries 110%, he just loves to try and please you. He has attended numerous dressage / pole work clinics, to which he always tries his hardest and behaves very well in group or individual lessons.

Showjumping - This is where harvey shines, he has a good technique over a fence and isn't phased by fillers. He won't hold it against you if you get him in deep or ask him to take a long one, he will always try to help out his rider. He has again attended lots of jumping clinics and some competitions, always doing well and behaving brilliantly.

Cross Country - Harvey went cross country for the first time a few weeks ago, jumping everything put in front of him, ditches, banks, skinnies and trotted through the water. Don't think cross country will be a problem for this boy!

Harvey has a loveable, cheeky personality, he is good to shoe, box, turnout with other horses. He could go extremely far in the right hands and would turn his hoof to any job. No novice riders as he can get a little strong jumping and still needs to further his education.

Unfortunately due to work commitments Frank is now looking to find his new home.

16h 10 year old German thoroughbred

I bought Frank straight out of racing this year and have started his retraining and he is now ready to further his career. He has the sweetest temperament and will ONLY go to a 5* home.

Good to do in all ways and is a pleasure to have around. Hacks alone and in company, good in open spaces. Works nicely on the flat and is popping round 1m courses. Has hunted with previous owners.

He would make a lovely all rounder or eventer and I really think he would excel in ROR classes.

Red was purchased by owners as a 2yo to race but due to injury (Sesamoiditis) is now retired from racing and looking for his new home.

He has been back in work 6 weeks after having time out in the field and is proving to be a super star in the making. His injury has not affected him as a low level dressage horse or a happy hacker, he just couldn’t stand the strain of racing.

He completed his first dressage tests last week gaining 68% and 72% to take the win. Red is just an overall loving boy and a very pleasing horse to work with. We have hacked him all around the country park on the buckle and cantered him across open fields with no problems. I am unsure on whether he would be able to jump in the future.

Please get in touch for more information on this very special boy.
