Gisele has been beautifully trained and is working adv-med / PSG. 

She is good in the contact, with super lateral work, changes and has played with tempi changes. She came over from abroad and has previously had a couple of foals due to her fabulous breeding.

She has been with a young rider who’s been at uni so very limited shows. A couple of Eles BD, and she has done unaff Medium and Adv-med. 

Good to hack both alone and in company, super girl to have around the yard and very easy to do. 

She can be a little bit sensitive so requires a confident sympathetic rider to bring out the best.

Very sensibly priced - home very important.

Patch is searching for his right person. Maybe you’re a more novice rider or an older rider looking for a quiet horse that will teach you and give you confidence, but in return needs a little TLC himself. Or maybe you have purchased a horse that isn’t quite right for you and are looking to part exchange or possibly swap.

We are offering our hireling for sale due to him needing a. slightly, quieter life. He sometimes needs a little bute, and or a steroid injection also helps him behind. Never really a lame step, just management to keep a nice horse comfortable. Like us, we also need a paracetamol from time to time, with many miles left on the clock and far from hanging up our riding boots!

He is a real schoolmaster. No vices. No blemishes. Loads of experience in showjumping, hunting, showing, dressage & a real cross country machine. 

Good to clip, catch, load, travel and shoe. Schooled beautifully on the flat and good enough for the show ring. Hacks alone and not silly in company. Will pop a course of 90cm easily and is not scared of fillers or solid fences. Has hunted many seasons and could still do.

Fab & fun horse to take out on your own or with friends. Has been to loads of fun rides & beach rides.

He would be perfect for Children on Horses / amateur looking to step up.

Easy to handle in all ways. He has a great personality and is a yard favourite. He is perfect to hack, alone and in company.

Royal Mint, Penny - KEC Maximum Joe x Cavalier Royale

Penny is a quality mare with a lot of presence, consistently scoring low 30s and in the 20s at Novice and Intermediate.

Careful jump and bold xc, only one xc fault on her record.

Bought at the end of her 4yo year Penny was a project to turn around and make some money whilst I was at university.. 5 years later the time has finally come. She has taught me so much and is now ready to teach her next rider. She would be suited to a competent junior or amateur wanting to be competitive at lower levels through to 2* and beyond.

She is a tough mare never a sick or sorry day however one optional operation that lead her to miss some of her 7yo year. Happy to share all vet history.

Recent full set of clean X-rays and scans.

Genuine and sad sale of a much beloved horse due to work commitments and another horse coming back into work.

Sensibly priced.

ARPÉGE DE BLAIGNAC – The Ultimate Dressage Schoolmaster & Gentleman

  • Selle Francais
  • Fleabitten grey

  • Established at Advanced Medium
  • Confident performer

Meet Arpége, a true professional with a golden temperament and a wealth of experience. With three expressive, uphill paces and a naturally balanced way of going, he is a joy to ride every day.

Having successfully evented up to 4* level in France, Arpége has seen and done it all. However, he’s now ready for a new chapter — one that allows him to channel his talent, elegance, and education into pure dressage, where he truly shines.

This is not a sale through injury. Arpége loves his work and enjoys his jumping, but it’s clear his heart now lies in the dressage arena. Confidently established at Advanced Medium level, he has competed in big atmospheres and always carries himself with grace and presence.

He would be the ideal partner for a rider who wants to learn the movements, build confidence, and gain competition experience on a horse who is both talented and kind. Whether you’re aiming to move up the levels or simply want to enjoy the feel of a well-schooled, generous horse, Arpége is the perfect teacher.

A very sad sale of a much-loved horse, so only the best 5* home will be considered.

Open to full vetting.

A true gentleman ready to share his wisdom and begin a new chapter in the dressage arena.

Stunning Dressage Horse for Lease


Ref #: 399461

  • A sub 30 eventing dressage machine up to 3* international

This lovely horse switched from BE to BD in the summer 2025, immediately gaining regional and national qualifications at elementary level.

He has only switched to dressage as this is what he loves and no longer enjoys the XC aspect of eventing.

He has been owned by the same family over the last 8 years & produced & competed by both daughters from their early teens who have trained all the way through with first Ian Woodhead and for the last 5 years Tracy Woodhead

He has correct elastic paces, straight uphill movement is currently training at AM and has started learning canter pirouettes.

Simba has a loving affectionate personality & adores attention. He is easy to handle & used to travelling long distances & staying away. He is happy on his own or with a full lorry.

Simba adores hacking both alone & in company.

The decision to lease Simba has not been easy. He is utterly loved adored & wanted but we need to do what is best for him. We are an eventing family & his 16 year old rider is in her first year of A levels & has 4 Eventers to compete in the upcoming season. She simply doesn’t have time to do him justice at the moment & he deserves to be somebody’s number 1.

We will only consider leasing him to an experienced 5* home & the right rider. He is a gentle soul & will be best suited to a quiet competitive rider who will love & enjoy him but doesn’t have the finances to purchase a horse like this.

  • 5* home on a quiet, rural yard
  • Open to projects
Experienced private owner offering a genuine 5?? long-term home.

I have over 20 years’ experience owning horses and am a lightweight, quiet, and sympathetic rider. My approach focuses on positive reinforcement, correct basics, and allowing horses to progress at their own pace.

My current horse is a 23-year-old mare, retired for the past three years due to age-related medical issues. She remains with me permanently, and I’m now looking for my next long-term equine partner.

The horse would be kept at a quiet rural livery yard with miles of off road hacking and on site owners (I would be the primary caregiver and live only a few miles away) providing daily oversight.

Horse Sought

- 15.1–16.2hh
- 6–9 years old
- Mare preferred, although geldings considered
- ISH / Warmblood type preferred (not looking for a cob, or anything chunky)
- Naturally forward-going with a good jump
- Well-schooled or sensibly produced
- Able to hack alone and in company (essential)
- Good to clip, catch, shoe, and load
- Kind, straightforward temperament on the ground and easy to work with
- Sensible project considered (green, recently out of work, or needing education) - providing any quirks or blemishes are disclosed.

I’m not looking for a finished article; temperament, trainability, and potential are more important than mileage. A horse with scope to compete at novice / newcomers, in time would be ideal.

I’m based in Central Scotland, so sensible distances preferred, though I’m willing to travel for the right horse.

Please WhatsApp or email in the first instance with full details and photos.

As this is a forever home and I do not sell horses on, realistic prices only, please.

References happily provided.

Gorgeous 2018 Irish gelding standing at 17.1hh.

This big upstanding horse oozes presence and quality and offers an equally lovely ride.

Cheeky has only had one home, he has done plenty of hunting, mannerly with hounds and lovely over a fence, he’s a nice quality type and a real classic stamp, plenty of him, he is a big substantial horse, with a light and athletic movement.

Despite being a lovely hunter, Cheeky will do a riding club job too, he has three flashy paces, works in a lovely frame and would certainly turn heads in a show ring or dressage boards. He’s been bold with our coloured fillers, showing a lovely technique and plenty of scope.

Cheeky is sensible and easy to hack out, good alone and with others, great in traffic has even had to cross a motorway flyover several times with no issues. He’s a lovely big horse, with a great attitude and will excel in whatever job he goes on to do, he’s a lovely easy ride, a real gentleman and such a kind, placid and loving horse on the ground.

Mannerly, easy and just the ultimate package, this chap couldn’t offer anymore than he already does, a hard found and much loved horse who’s never changed hands.
