Apple has competed to Elementary BD (with previous home) always infront of the leg.

I have mainly hunted her (5 full days last season), helped at numerous newcomers, great with children’s ponies.

A delight to hack, first or last, alone and in company. Perfect to ride and lead. She will pop a log but not really her thing. Excellent in ALL traffic.

Had some time off 2023 but sound and in work since, reflected in price.

  • 15 years

  • Double clear at Advanced
  • Clear xc at 4* and completed Blenheim 4*L 2023
  • Lovely character and person
Compact and smart horse

Fit and ready to go. Entered for Aston Open Novice 15th May

Successfully evented up to 4* level, jumping clear xc at Burnham Market, Aston and Blair 4* shorts and completing Blenheim 4* Long in 2023.

He does have an old tendon injury, which has been stem celled, rehabbed and correctly brought back into work. The vets were very happy with his recent scan and given the go ahead to continue working.

Whilst we feel it’s not fair to try and get him back to 4* level he still has a lot to give someone, whether it’s pure dressage or show jumping; he could low level event but can be strong xc and would need a competent rider.

Super paces and scored 31 at 4* level and 27 at 3*, double clear at Advanced and lots of placings at intermediate level.

Super easy to do at home and at events, hacked out by his owner who’s mid 70s.

Lovely character and person.

Very good to shoe, clip, load etc

DO YOU HAVE A HORSE OR PONY SUITABLE FOR THE RDA?

WANTED ON LONG TERM LOAN / PURCHASE

Ref #: 249896
  • If you think your equine has what it takes, please contact one of the groups below
  • If you think your equine has what it takes, please contact one of the groups below

One of the main issues that RDA groups face is finding an Equine to suit the needs of the participants in their group.

We are regularly contacted with offers of Equines that are ‘the ideal RDA horse or pony’ when actually what is ideal for one group may not be for the next. We are trying to move away from the stereotypical view that RDA Equines are elderly and somewhat static, our horses and ponies need to be fit, healthy and athletic to cope with the lifestyle in an RDA group.

They can range from smaller, forward going ponies to weight carrying cobs and can take part in a range of disciplines from Riding to Carriage Driving, Vaulting to Show Jumping and Endurance.

If you contact an RDA Group about your Equine please be prepared to fill in an Equine Initial Interest Form which will ask you many questions about your horses’ temperament, health history, experience and lifestyle. Many groups will prefer to have an equine on trial to make sure they are suitable for the job.

For long term loans and purchases they will also be required to have a Pre-Purchase Examination.

If you think your equine has what it takes, please contact one of the groups below.

  • 15.3 11year old by My Eclipse
Madge has competed at BD for 3 years and qualified for Area Festivals and a Regional, both summer and winter. She has just qualified for the Regionals again since Christmas.

In Winter 2023/24 we competed at BD Veteran Rider Champs (at Vale View, Leicestershire) at Prelim and Novice - placed 3rd in the silver section Prelim test and 6th overall.

She competed at Regionals at Chard in Prelim and came 8th.

She has also qualified for Hartpury South West Unaffiliated Champs coming 3rd in the Novice warm up class and getting a reasonable score in the champs.

She jumps very nicely and while she hasn’t done loads under saddle she certainly could go on and do loads more!

She’s been on the beach and is very mannerly. Woodland rides etc. She travels like a dream and stays over at shows very happily. She’ll go first or last out hacking. Her only flaw is she isn’t the most comfortable in big traffic , absolutely fine with cars, vans ,trucks and trailers etc if she has company and a bit of cover she is fine but does need reassurance.

She is the kindest mare to look after , up to date with jabs , teeth etc .

Madge will wind suck very occasionally after being fed

Her slight flaws are reflected in her reasonable price .

She is much loved so Good home

SUPER KIND SCHOOLMASTER LOOKING FOR HIS NEXT CAREER

Cornflake is a quality 16.2h 18yo Warmblood Gelding.

In a past life, Cornflake (The Corn Crake) has evented to 3* with good results, however he has lost the love for jumping in the ring.

With this in mind, we feel Cornflake would be best suited to a home as a dressage schoolmaster, or to go hunting/teamchasing.

On the flat Cornflake has all the moves, he’s rideable, sane and forgiving. He has all his lateral work, a change both ways and an easy snaffle mouth.

Equally, cornflake is a proven hunter. He’s easy, mannerly and jumps anything with plenty of scope and enthusiasm.

Cornflake hacks alone and in company in heavy traffic, and is easy to shoe, box, clip etc. He’s never hot or silly, and has been ridden and looked after entirely by a small teenage girl for the last couple of years.

Open to any vet or viewing.

  • Anglo European
  • Bay
  • Mare
  • 18 years
  • 15.2 hands
  • Successfully competed
  • Beautifully schooled, well mannered
  • Hack alone or in company, great with gates!
Bea is a beautiful 17year old 15.2 Anglo European mare.

If you are looking for a ‘been there done that’, impeccably mannered schoolmistress she could be the horse for you. For the last four years Bea has been the dream horse for my daughter who got her when she was 13, but has now outgrown her at 17.

During this time they have regularly competed at 90-100cm, done a variety of ODEs, dressage tests, pony camps, riding club events including arena eventing at nationals and many more adventures.

Bea has recently developed arthritis in her front hooves and hocks, and therefore needs a quieter life. The arthritis has been treated, and in consultation with our vet we have agreed that Bea would be better suited to a home where she can do a variety of activities such as flat work, occasional jumping up to 70cm, dressage, hacking and occasionally go on outings such as fun rides. Bea is a sports horse and therefore needs a knowledgeable owner.

Bea has impeccable stable manners, good to load (into our lorry), and shoe, but needs sedation to clip. Bea hacks alone or in company but prefers to hack out in company as gets confidence from another horse. She is good at standing and amazing at doing gates and polite in open areas & traffic. She can be spooky at tractors, but in our previous yard where tractors were coming and going all the time, she became used to them. Bea currently has all year turn-out, but in a previous yard it was herd turn out. Bea loves a good scratch, has a wonderful bond with my daughter but does not get overly attached to other horse.

This is a super sad sale for this lovely mare therefore home is more important than price. No dealers, or riding schools. Based nr Bradford on Avon. Plenty of videos available on request. Please text via WhatsApp as often unavailable for calls.

Companion/Family Friend long term Loan home required for 15hh 19 years young Welsh X Mare.

We have owned this mare since a 4 year old. She has had a successful ridden career without injury.

Due to owners pregnancy, a suitable long term home is required to care for and enjoy this much loved member of our family. She is only out of work due to this factor and will remain this way for the foreseeable future. She would still benefit from the walker/lunge/led out in hand though.

A kind, happy, loving mare who adores attention and fuss. She is kept like a queen here and deserves it. Never a bother or a bad day. She has been the easiest pony to have around over all these years.

Has lived with mares and geldings. Not mareish and not one to kick, bite, chase others. Happy with a youngster or older friend. She would need to have company in her new home.

Lives in at night during the winter months, weather permitting during the summer she is happy to live outside full time with some shelter from the heat. She has been used to coming into stables for a sleep each day in the afternoons and then back out through the night.

Vaccinated, teeth, farrier etc always kept up to date. Microchipped etc.

Not fussed when other horses go out to exercise, but we have always brought ours into stables when their field partner has been required elsewhere.

She is currently out solo at home and not fazed by this, but this is only due to short term circumstances.

She has also been in livery on and off since September at a professional yard and has always just gone with the flow without fuss or anxiety and happily stepped into the yard favourite role within minutes!

My main priority is that this little mare is loved and enjoyed by a new person/family. She brings a smile to my face everyday and has been an unwavering best friend to me and her numerous four legged friends over the years since she first arrived with us.

Enquiries welcome, homes will be vetted. She is a straightforward lady to have around but an experienced home is sort to ensure continuity of care.

Any questions please do get in touch.

More photos and videos available to suitable enquiries.

No calls after 8pm.

Currently based in Lincoln.
