With a calm, kind, and willing nature, she is a joy to have on the yard. She learns quickly, loves her job, and takes her education in her stride with a great attitude.

Didi is incredibly and naturally brave cross country with superb scope, technique, and flair. She is confidently jumping British Novice BS courses and shows all the makings to be incredibly competitive with her new family.

What an absolute pleasure in every way—fabulous to hack alone or in company, and easy to shoe, box, clip, and handle both at home and away.

This mare offers outstanding potential to be a Badminton Grassroots Champion, with the temperament to succeed. A genuine, exciting prospect ready to continue her journey with a rider who wants a talented, versatile partner. Very suitable match for a keen amateur for Dressage or Eventing alike, and is a very suitable project to aim towards U18 with her very own teenager to love.

• Hunting with Quorn like a dream, bold to hedges and timber alike

A truly exceptional young horse offering proven Irish Sport Horse performance breeding. This gelding combines the modern scope and rideability of Conticco with the power, bravery and consistency of legendary sire It’s the Business—a cross known for producing high-quality eventers and showjumpers with international appeal

Sire: Conticco, from the Contender line, consistently produces athletic, ultra–trainable sport horses with careful technique and excellent canters. His progeny are widely sought after for both showjumping and eventing, known for their brain, scope and elasticity. This gelding is a true reflection of that stamp.

Damline: It’s the Business, one of the most influential British-bred jumping sires of his era. His descendants are celebrated for their bravery, carefulness and strong work ethic—qualities which shine through here. This gelding shows the classic It’s the Business boldness across country, combined with modern blood and refinement.

Together, these lines create a horse with serious potential for the upper levels, with the temperament to progress smoothly through the grades.

Hapusa is jumping double clears at BN and is ready to step up, showing exceptional technique, a careful foreleg and let go behind. He is naturally rideable to the fence, easy to adjust, and shows all the qualities of a horse for bigger classes and is a serious age-class contender next year.

XC schooling boldly with excellent balance and bravery. Hunted with the Quorn, he has proven mannerly, confident and clever—jumping hedges, timber and natural country with ease. He shows the sort of mind that makes stepping into any competition setting straightforward.

A pleasure in every sense: Hacks alone or in company. Excellent to clip, shoe, load and travel. Gentle, settled and kind on the ground. He truly has the temperament of a much older horse. His temperament makes him easy to produce, while his quality ensures he will be competitive in the ring.

This gelding is a top-quality competition prospect with the movement, scope and mentality to progress in multiple sports:

Eventing – ideal for 5-year-old classes, with the scope and gallop for future FEI levels

This gelding offers exactly what International buyers consistently seek, particularly appealing for the American market:

A safe, kind, easy-minded young horse, correct conformation and clean X-rays, excellent natural balance and canter, rideability suitable for amateurs, teens or professionals

He has the movement for eventing, the jump for showjumping, and the brain and manners that make him an ideal candidate for export.

Well put together with a clean set of X-rays. He has never been rushed; his education has been steady, correct and enjoyable.

A genuinely rare opportunity to secure a beautifully bred, talented and ultra-kind young gelding with serious international potential.

Bruno – Exceptional 16.3hh 5yo Sports Horse with Serious Hunter Quality

Bruno is a truly eye-catching 16.3hh, 5-year-old gelding by Brunetti (Balou du Rouet) out of a Mermus R mare. He has the looks, the movement, and—most importantly—the exceptional natural ability to be a top-class Hunter and competition horse.

Bruno has been introduced to Quorn country and has proven himself an absolute machine across big country—bold, clever and incredibly scopey. He flies enormous hedges, timber, drains and trappy lines with total confidence and enthusiasm. This is a young horse with the raw bravery and natural instinct that you simply cannot teach.

Alongside his hunter talent, Bruno has made an impressive start eventing and showjumping. He’s confidently schooling and competing around 100/Novice-style questions, has jumped BS (BN & Discovery) on a ticket with great promise, and received excellent feedback in his BYEH class. He has a cracking technique and endless scope still to come as he strengthens and finishes maturing.

On the flat, Bruno produces a smart, consistent test with three expressive, correct paces, frequently scoring around 70%. Judges love him, and he always looks the part.

He hacks brilliantly alone or in company, is excellent in traffic, and has behaved impeccably on fun rides and hunt rides. Shoe, box, clip—he’s easy in all departments.

Bruno has all the ingredients to go to the very top as a Hunter, or equally develop into a serious Eventer or Dressage horse. A big-hearted, charismatic horse with huge ability and presence.

Full set of recent clean X-rays. Sadly for sale only because he has grown too big for his amateur lady owner, who still enjoys taking him on hunt rides and schooling him but prefers a smaller model.

If you’re looking for a stunning, young, incredibly brave horse ready to become a true field master’s horse or top-flight hunter, Bruno is the one!

Temperament & Rideability

Darcy is a lovely, kind mare with a willing attitude.

• Works very well on the flat with good paces and balance
• Hacks alone or in company, and is not fazed by farm machinery or activity (no roadwork due to London location)

She can be a bit of a face-puller in the stable, but is straightforward and easy to do in every other way.

The Ideal Home

Darcy is a high-quality young horse with a bright future ahead — she would suit a knowledgeable, experienced rider looking to produce a talented prospect for the age classes or bring along as a serious event horse.

She’s open to any vetting, and we offer excellent trial facilities with both indoor and outdoor arenas.
