Would love to find my boy Walton Blue Eyed Boy his forever home

Blue is a very handsome bright bay registered Shire gelding. He will be 6 this year and is a big boy currently measuring at 18.3hh. He is very striking with lots of feather and unique blue eyes.

Blue is good to catch, shoe, clip, travels in a lorry and trailer. Will hack alone and in company. Is not bothered by traffic and being bought up on a farm is used to farm animals, large machinery and dogs.

He has been shown very successfully in hand and last year started under saddle. We've even done some BD.

Due to his size we've taken things slowly. He's done a little bit of everything but wouldn't be suitable for a novice. He is still green and needs more milage. He may be massive but he's a sensitive chap and takes his confidence from his handler/rider.

This is an incredibly hard decision. We have owned Blue from 6 months old but due to my daughter now competing more I just do not have the time he deserves. Would love for him to find a person to give him the one to one and love he deserves.
Home is the most important thing.

Please bear in mind, he really is 18.3hh, he will need a big stable. He is nearly a tonne of horse and he isn't going to go like a thoroughbred or Arab. He is bred to pull.
Any questions please just ask. Have numerous photos and videos.

Oreo, a striking 5-year-old cob gelding standing at 16hh. Oreo is a truly eye-catching horse with beautiful, balanced conformation and an exceptionally pretty presence. His gorgeous white tail gives him a unique look that turns heads everywhere he goes — he’s one of those horses that always gets noticed for his good looks and charm. With his smart markings and lovely build, Oreo is the perfect example of a well-put-together cob, combining strength, balance, and quality in one impressive package.

Oreo has a wonderful temperament and is a genuine pleasure to have around. He is kind, good-natured, and always willing to please, making him an ideal partner for riders of different levels. Here, he is regularly ridden by novice students and takes everything in his stride, showing patience and a sensible outlook that makes him very easy to trust. He works in a snaffle, is light in the hand, and goes sweetly off the leg, giving his rider a comfortable and confidence-building ride every time.

He’s lovely to hack, whether alone or in company, and is excellent in traffic. He’s well used to all kinds of farm machinery and country life, making him a brilliant choice for someone who enjoys relaxed rides through lanes, fields, or open countryside. Oreo is also a lovely, straightforward horse to take hunting — he’s sensible in open spaces, polite in a group, and enjoys getting on with the job.

Oreo has been schooled on the flat, over show jumps, and across cross-country fences. He’s honest and brave to a fence, has a good natural rhythm, and is already confidently jumps up to 90cm here. With his three balanced, comfortable paces and his enthusiastic, can-do attitude, he shows great potential for any all-round job. He’s the type of cob who will happily turn his hoof to a bit of everything — from hacking and hunting to riding club and fun days out.

He is easy to handle in every way — good to shoe, box, catch, ride, and in traffic. Oreo has no stable vices and is open to any vetting. His calm and adaptable temperament means he would suit a wide variety of homes: he would make a fantastic mother–daughter share, a brilliant addition to a riding school, or a trustworthy and fun happy hacker for someone wanting an easy, enjoyable companion.

The price includes delivery to your yard anywhere in the UK, and we offer an exchange if you’re not completely happy with him.
Scroll down to view his video and see what a lovely, genuine horse he is. For more information, please don’t hesitate to call me anytime on 00353 868077626 or email gertytynan@gmail.com.
