Meet Vinnie, a 4-year-old 16.2hh Irish Draught cross gelding with all the quality, temperament, and bone you’d expect from a traditional Irish type. Vinnie is a beautifully put-together bay gelding with a kind, gentle nature and a willing attitude that makes him a joy to handle and ride. He’s the sort of horse that wants to do the right thing and always gives his rider 100%.

Vinnie is well-schooled on the flat, riding in a soft, consistent contact with a light snaffle mouth. He works nicely in all three paces and has a naturally balanced way of going. He’s easy and uncomplicated to ride, with a calm, forgiving temperament that would suit a range of riders—including novices, mother-daughter shares, riding schools, or even trekking centres looking for a safe, steady horse to add to their string.

Vinnie is a true allrounder, he would make a lovely riding club horse. He’s also an extremely honest and genuine jumper. Vinnie has schooled confidently up to 90cm over both coloured poles and cross-country fences. Out on the course, he takes everything in stride—ditches, drains, banks, coffins, water—he jumps it all with a brave and willing heart. He’s the kind of horse that keeps trying, even if the question gets tough, and he never says no. His attitude makes him an ideal candidate for someone looking to hunt this coming season—he’s already hunted twice earlier this year and proved himself to be mannerly, straightforward, and happy to get on with the job.

Vinnie is easy to do in all ways. He’s good to catch, box, shoe, and is safe in traffic. He hacks out happily alone or in company and enjoys being out and about. He has no stable vices, is open to any vetting, and is the kind of horse that’s hard to find—kind, safe, genuine, and with his whole future ahead of him.

Whether you’re looking for a safe partner to enjoy in the school, on the hunting field, or out hacking, Vinnie is ready to go and will settle into any routine with ease. The price includes delivery to your yard in the UK, and we offer an exchange option if you’re not happy.

Jerry | 15hh Black Gelding | Smashing Cob with Style and Substance

Meet Jerry, a striking 15hh black cob gelding with serious presence and a brave, forward-going attitude paired with rideability. At just four years old, Jerry already shows the quality, confidence, and character of a much older horse, making him an exciting and versatile prospect for the future.

Jerry is a real head-turner with a strong, compact build, excellent conformation, and that classic cob charm. He is forward-going in the best way—keen, responsive, and full of energy—yet he remains sensible, safe, and good to ride, making him both enjoyable and reliable under saddle. He thrives on work and loves to be ridden, giving his best each time and always eager to please.

He is easy to catch, box, shoe, and he takes new experiences in stride. Out hacking, Jerry is confident and happy both alone and in company. He is good in traffic and unbothered by noise or movement, making him a dependable ride whether on the roads or exploring open countryside.

Jerry has a lovely step and natural movement that, combined with his brave attitude and eye-catching presence, give him real potential for the show ring. He would also be well-suited to riding club activities or simply as a fun and capable all-rounder for someone who enjoys an active, forward-going ride. While he has plenty of presence and energy, he is still genuine, kind, and easy enough for a competent amateur or confident novice to enjoy.

This smashing cob is full of promise and ready to continue his education with someone who will appreciate his enthusiasm and ability. He has no stable vices, is open to any vetting, and comes with the added peace of mind that delivery to your yard in the UK is included in the price.

If you’re looking for a smart, stylish cob with the movement, mindset, and manners to go far, Jerry is one not to miss.

• Cob
• Piebald
• Gelding
• 5 years
• 14.2 hands

• He’s a lovely type, with a lovely natural balance, calm brain, and a fantastic can-do attitude
• He’s proving to be a really smart, willing pony with a very sweet nature.
• He’s a real favourite on the yard – easy to have around, always polite to handle

Meet Cookie – a beautifully marked 14.2hh piebald gelding, 5 years old and packed with personality. This eye-catching cob has both the looks and the nature to make someone an absolutely brilliant best friend and partner. He’s a lovely type, with a lovely natural balance, calm brain, and a fantastic can-do attitude.

Cookie has been slowly and correctly produced, and he’s proving to be a really smart, willing pony with a very sweet nature. He’s ideal for someone looking for a pony that’s safe, sane and full of potential – whether you want to enjoy long hacks, have fun at Pony Club, or eventually do a bit of everything.

He’s a real favourite on the yard – easy to have around, always polite to handle, and very affectionate without being in your pocket. He loves human company, stands like a rock to be groomed, and is happy to load, travel, and settle in new places.

Under saddle, Cookie rides in a snaffle and goes in a lovely rhythm. He’s responsive without being sharp, happy in open spaces, and not the spooky or silly type. He has a lovely work ethic and is proving willing over poles and small fences – honest, genuine, and improving every week. Cookie has started basic schooling over cross-country fences and has shown he’s brave and steady, taking everything in stride.

He hacks out alone or in company, is good with farm machinery and traffic, and has seen a wide variety of sights and sounds. He’s got the kind of temperament that makes him enjoyable and safe to ride, suitable for a riding school.

Cookie would suit a capable teen, small adult, or even a novice – he’s that kind and sensible. With his solid foundation and steady progress, he’s ready to continue his journey with someone who wants to enjoy a well-mannered, friendly, and versatile cob.

Cookie is open to vetting, has no stable vices, and is up to date with everything. Delivery across the UK available, and we offer an exchange option if needed – but we think once you meet him, you won’t want to let him go.

• 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.
