  • 7-13 years old

  • Mannerly and keen to do the job

Genuine, mannerly and experienced horse is sought for a 40 year old mum with aspirations of being competitive at grassroots.

I have previously evented to Novice, but not for some years now, and I am keen to be competitive once again.

As horses are at home, I’m not looking for a youngster - I don’t have the nerves or experience to sit on something very green / sharp. In addition, my 12 y/o Daugther is regularly competing my old horse, so life is busy.

Apart from competing, I will also want to do the “mum bit” eg riding out with my Daugther etc so horse must be polite and / or forgiving if I get it wrong! In return, I am a caring owner who would offer a lovely family home.

I’m 5’5 so I don’t need anything big.

I want to be able to go out on my own for regular training / clinics etc - manners on the ground, travelling etc, as well under saddle are key.

Must be good to hack in company / on its own and in big open spaces.

Horse will need to pass a vetting / X-rays.

Excellent and realistic budget for high quality horse.

We have a lovely set up with great facilities and can offer a very caring and dedicated home.

  • 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.
