8-Year-Old | Dark Bay Gelding | Ex-Racehorse | RoR Prospect

If you’re looking for a beautiful, quality ex-racehorse who is fit, sound and ready to get out and enjoy, Rival is a seriously smart prospect. 🤎

Rival is a gorgeous 8-year-old dark bay gelding with plenty of presence and a lovely way of going. He works beautifully in a natural outline, with an uncomplicated, genuine attitude towards his work and all the ingredients to make a very exciting RoR prospect.

HUNTING EXPERIENCE

Rival attended the Opening Meet last weekend, giving him fantastic experience in a busy hunting environment. He is currently fit, sound and ready to go, making him ideal for someone wanting a horse they can get straight out and enjoy rather than having to spend months getting fit.

He hacks happily alone and in company and is straightforward to load, making him a lovely horse for someone wanting to get out and about.

With his looks, movement and experience, Rival could be a really exciting horse to continue producing for RoR classes, hunting, dressage, eventing or as a quality all-rounder.

✨On Behalf of Client✨

16.2hh, 12 year old, TB Gelding

Based in Angus, Scotland.

Mid 4 figures, can come with rug and bridle.

Due to time commitments and a young family, this boys owner has decided it’s best to find him a new home.

A big loveable bug, always the first over for a cuddle. Would suit a busy yard where all horses are put out and brought in together.

Has the looks and presence of a top ROR horse. Having previously qualified for ROR champs at Aintree at his first time out in-hand showing.

Schools with a soft mouth and off the leg. Very pleasant uphill ride with serious dressage potential.

Loves to jump and very bold. Been out to some BS schooling shows, XC schooling and other arena hires with owner.

He is not a happy hacker, gets over stressy and will jog a lot, we are currently working on it. Not spooky at all, all sorts of traffic goes past our school and he doesn’t bat an eye.

Racing History -

First ran at 6 years old in a NH Flat then again as a 7 year old in Hurdles. Didn’t have the speed or stamina and was retired sound straight to current owner.

Home is most important to the owner, ideally a competition home on a busy yard. Holds weight extremely well and has good feet.

Been back in work for 8 weeks with us after 2 years off due to owner’s circumstances.

Don’t miss the opportunity to have this amazing horse just because he’s an ex racehorse. I’d pick him over a warmblood any day.

Absolutely cracking TB gelding available, 9 years old, 16 hh.

I don't know where to start with this super fun little horse he is one of the easiest horses to do, travels well, stands on his own in the trailer at a show, good to shoe and clip, hacks alone or in company. Just a pleasure to have around, stick food in front of him and you're onto a winner!

He came out of racing after a win over hurdles and also placed chasing, end of October 2024 due to me convincing the trainer he’s too good a jumper to be a race horse and needs to be a snow jumper.

Jumping 90cm easily, I don’t do BSJA hence why he hasn’t been registered but he is more than capable of jumping the BS tracks and has a very carful, scopey jump for the bigger tracks.

Everyone loves him at shows and training saying what a nice horse he is and then I can hear when he jumps is WOW!

Has also been to BSJA and Thoughbred aftercare programme training where he behaves really well. Eligible for ROR and moves well on the flat, meaning he could also excel in the show ring and dressage. He has been shown in-hand in hack and ROR classes.

He has been Cross country schooling and Arena XC schooling. Really good in the big open field, jumped everything that was asked and loved going through the water.

We did meet up with the Hunt whilst out hacking and joined them so a bit which he loved. Didn’t mind leaving the field to hack back home on his own.

Just a great all round horse that i know would excel in the right home. He’s very chilled out and relaxed with turn out, I almost feel I need to oat him up he’s so relaxed. Does perk up more at a show than at home. He is sharper without turn out but what horse isn’t? So Wouldn't be a complete novices ride. He’s good to turn out on his own or with others.

He goes in a rubber bit and loves a very light contact with confidence coming from the leg. Once he gets that bond and trust with his rider he’d do anything for them.

He came straight out of racing and to a show and didn't put a foot wrong, behaving like pro. Just showing what a fabulous attitude he has, just can't sing his praises enough.

Up to date with physio, teeth, shoeing etc. No stable vices

Never lame, sick or sorry just a fun horse looking for a fun owner to carry on with!

ROR ELIGIBLE

  • 13 years
  • 16.1hh / 166cm
  • RoR eligible
  • Mother Daughter Share
  • Professionally retrained

Koshi is the sweetest, most affectionate horse. He just loves a fuss. He’s 16.1hh, bright bay, TB gelding, 13 years.

Has been professional schooled by myself and a professional show jumper over a 2 year period before going out on loan for 14 months where he mainly hacked &; did hound exercises

He is now come back to me for schooling and to find his forever home !

No sensible offer refused to find in the best Home before winter

He’s going well on the flat and can now do a proper balanced, collected 10m circle in canter but, he is green and still needs consistent schooling work. He has been XC schooling a fair few times Before going out on loan and loves it and he’s also started being properly introduced to SJ. He can do 80cm comfortably from a trot already, teaching him to use himself and not race at a fence. He is quick upfront and is careful.

He is good to catch, box, shoe, in traffic, pick his feet out, clip etc. He is also good with dogs, and is unphased by sheep, cows and pigs! He is lovely with other horses. Nothing fazes him. He is also great to hack either alone or in company.

He is up to date with jabs, farrier, teeth, saddler, worming and ready to go on and do a job now. He should be out and about competing this year with someone who has more time.

He has a fully adjustable, close contact Fairfax black leather jump saddle that was bought new for him that can be sold by desperate negotiation

He is snaffled mouthed, and is ridden in a loose ring with a running martingale for jumping.

He is French and impeccably bred, out of Juddemont. RoR eligible. Won a lot in his day. He came to the UK as a 6yo, but never really made waves here, like in France. 2 years after leaving France

An absolute sweetheart both on the ground and under saddle, she is a genuine, kind and willing filly with a lovely attitude to her work.

Since leaving racing she has been lightly schooled and hacked, hacking alone and in company and having seen traffic, farm machinery and trotting poles.

Currently living out in a mixed herd, although has been stabled previously. No known vices or health issues.

An experienced home is sought due to her age and stage of education; not suitable for a novice.

A lovely, exciting young project with all the qualities to develop into a very special horse.
