Quality gypsy cob mare

  • Equal Woah and Go

We have bred and owned Mulligan all her life. She has always been super easy to do, so much so, she’s always the one who gets left, and not ridden. Whilst I find her super easy, and if anything, like it when she’s not been ridden for a month and is a little fresh, we have had a few try her and found her too forward for them.
There is no need to kick on this mare, leg on means go. She march’s in walk and trots out, keeping up with any horse. She loves a canter across the fields and tracks, but pulls up easy in a snaffle.
Personally I find circles in an arena boring, so we do not do it. If you want a dressage horse, you will need to put the work in, as our idea of fun is hacking. However she has been to dressage and show jump shows with a friend many years ago, so the buttons will still be there, it’s up to you if you want them, and if so you might need to re program.
Her forte is hacking, heavy traffic is no issue, she’s safe in open spaces, she goes first or last.
You can ride and lead her, or from her, so super easy.
She is a unit, i’m 5ft6 and she takes up my leg, and some
She is only for sale as I’ve bred myself a taller version and if she gets ridden once a fortnight she’s done well
She needs her own person, but of you are coming from a riding school, are used to kicking every stride, or are hoping for a mother daughter share for your ten year old, she is unlikely to be for you.
She is kind, super fun and gives you a great fun ride.

Very Special 155cm 7-Year-Old Lightweight Cob

A truly exceptional mare who ticks all the boxes and then some. At just 7 years old, she is beautifully schooled, balanced, and a pleasure to ride in every way.

She loves her work, whether it’s hacking out, tackling cross country, or shining in the ring. Always one to catch the judge’s eye, she consistently finds herself at the top of the line 

A kind, genuine soul, she absolutely thrives on attention and is easy in every aspect of handling. No vices, no fuss, just a straightforward, willing partner who gives her all.

This is a very sad sale of a much-loved mare. She is the kind that doesn’t come along often… we truly believe she has the quality and presence for HOYS, yet the temperament to be someone’s forever horse and best friend

A rare blend of talent, heart, and kindness — she will make someone incredibly happy.

  • Great Weight Carrier
  • Calm & Sensible to Hack

Steady well mannered ride that is a good weight carrier. She has nice comfortable paces and is not too forward but neither is she too lazy.

Will hack on her own or with a group and is very reliable in even the heaviest of road or farm traffic.

On the grass she is sensible even with a novice rider on, Bluey won’t race and try to sail off and overtake! Ridden in a snaffle at all times.

Happy to live in or in the field and she is great with others - will turn out with mares or geldings, she is simple to catch, lead in, tie up and will stand happily for ages to be bathed and groomed.

A kind natured soul that will suit a lady or gent to ride and enjoy.

  • A remarkably gentle and cuddly character with ability to go far in any direction

Puzzle is a 4yo 16h Irish draught cross gelding with stunning, memorable piebald colour that turns heads wherever he goes

He has lots of cross country experience and we have often used him to lead other horses because of his relaxed, brave attitude. He is equally happy to follow others.

He is confident over coffins, drains, and water jumps

He has a very soft snaffle mouth and is easy for anyone to ride in the contact. He would make an excellent dressage partner for a nervous rider, or a person looking to compete in showing classes

Puzzle enjoys hacking alone or with others and behaves quietly in open fields. He is a yard favourite among our riders for his comfy, steady canter

Puzzle has a snuggly, mellow personality and loves attention. He has been handled and ridden easily by all our riders and we believe for this reason, he would make a fantastic family horse or mother daughter share.

He is straightforward and quiet to ride, and would suit a riding school program

Puzzle can be ridden western or English style, and has plenty of experience moving cows

He is quiet around traffic, and well mannered to load, tie, clip, shoe, groom etc. He has no lumps, bumps or vices of any kind.

Puzzle is open to any vetting
