Absolutely stunning 3yo RID gelding, by Inishfree the Iron Cross.

Potential HOYS centre line, and a top contender for Draught classes.

Clean, straight, with exceptional movement.

His temperament is A1- curious and affectionate.

He wears a bridle, roller, and lunges well. Lives in or out, and is well socialised with other horses, as well as dogs and humans! He is INCREDIBLY affectionate, curious, and placid.

Good to handle, have his feet trimmed, bring in and out, go on the walker, load and travel.

Stunning rising 4yrs old Clydesdale x Cob.

Recently professionally broken, riding well in all 3 paces.

Sweet temperament. Easy to do.

First time popping a fence today, very willing and not at all spooky with our filler.

Hacks out alone and in company, not fazed by the country traffic she has seen.

A gorgeous blank canvas that’s had a good start and now looking for someone with time and experience to mold her into whatever you like weather it be a family friend or a fantastic all rounder.

Lots of presence that gives off the wow factor, definitely a hard sort to find.

She’s sensible and riding well for her age but she’s still learning so no novices please.

Good to catch, box, shoe etc

100% sound, no lumps, bumps etc.

Open to vet.

16hh | 2020 Irish Cob Gelding

Tom is looking for a new home through absolutely no fault of his own. He was bought in June (with a clean 5 stage vetting). Unfortunately nerves have got the best of current owner.

He’s a sweet, genuine boy who naturally takes his confidence from his rider. He needs someone who is carefree and happy to kick on, give him guidance.

Tom originally came over from Ireland and has been well handled. On the ground he is a joy — friendly, polite, loves attention, and will stand all day to be groomed or fussed. Good to load, catch and bath.

Under saddle, Tom shows all the promises to be a fantastic all rounder, whether you want a dressage or show partner or a horse to go have fun on and go hunting! He has correct flashy paces. He has lovely movement and is keen to learn.

He’s ridden in a snaffle and has a naturally willing attitude, he has it all there just now needs to go out and show off!

He hacks alone and in company, has seen all sorts of traffic, and is sensible in open spaces.

He hasn’t jumped since being purchased, but previously enjoyed it and was bold and honest when he went XC schooling before his sale.

Tom will make someone a really rewarding partner — he’s safe, sweet, and tries his best, but he’s young and needs a confident rider who can support him and help him continue developing.

Not suitable for complete novices owing to age.
Lots of videos available on request.

DO YOU HAVE A HORSE OR PONY SUITABLE FOR THE RDA?

WANTED ON LONG TERM LOAN / PURCHASE

Ref #: 249896
  • If you think your equine has what it takes, please contact one of the groups below
  • 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.

  • Super hack both alone and in company. Good in traffic.

Jerry is a 16.1 hands coloured gelding, 4 years.

Jerry is going very nicely both on group lessons and by himself in the school. He has a calm and sensible attitude. He has good flatwork and has competed in a few shows doing prelim dressage. He has 3 lovely balanced paces with super canter work, finding it very easy to canter circles and shapes.

He is very calm and is happy to work around dogs and cats in the arena.!!

Jerry is very happy to jump a course of small fences and is not fazed by fillers. He is now ready for someone to really have lots of fun on and really enjoy.

Jerry is great to hack both alone and in company. He is good in traffic.

Jerry is a lovely person and enjoys being groomed and having lots of cuddles.

Very chunky and huge boned french bred pure breton draught chap.

The perfect novice husbands hack! He is like an armchair to ride. Will take any rider out hacking all day long.

He is a lovely boy who hacks both alone and in company and is super to hack out. He really enjoys going out on hacks , and is good in traffic.

He does need a firm handler on the ground as he is a big lad and knows his size BUT that said he isn't nasty or dangerous, just may take the micky if you aren't firm with him from the start.

He is great to load , travel and with the farrier. He is barefoot. Upto date with physio and dentist.

He has done some arena work too just not loads.

Loving home sought for such a unique hard to find chap. He has the loviest personality!

No loans or timewasters please.

Caederwen Orion
5year old ,
gelding,
15hh.

Orion is a great stamp of a Welsh cob that oozes quality and turns his hoof to anything that’s asked of him.

Cleaned limbed and no blemishes.

He’s attended beach rides, fun rides, pony club camp with a competent teenager.
He’s been hunted. Stands still, doesn’t bother where he is and not phased.
Jumps for fun. We haven’t jumped him big due to his age. He loves jumping and takes you to a fence.

He was competed at two novice ridden showing shows and had ridden champion and reserve Champion. Huge HOYS contender for the future. He turns heads wherever he goes.

He’s good to hack, good with traffic and sees tractors and Lorry’s daily.
Is green in the school but due to his age and still maturing we haven’t rushed him.

Has been clipped and trimmed.
All vaccinations up to date and dentist.
Good with farrier, to catch, load and travel and will stand all day to be bathed and pampered.
Orion is lovely to have around on the yard and will be sadly missed.

This is a hard sale so please no time wasters. No novices or joy riders.

Serious cob for a serious show home !!
Or a nice chap as a all rounder.

Came for education but now owners have decided to sell due to overstock.

BUZZ - Nice chap, enjoys been out and about. 3 sensible paces and tries to please.

Hes not done a huge amount but all the fundamentals have been put into place for him to finish growing and progressing will make a cracking horse.

Hacks out alone or in company - seen plenty of traffic , seen hounds, been out trail hunting, has jumped solid fences - great in open spaces and slowly learning his job.

Will go around the school and pop a small jump - more work to be done ( looking pretty etc )

Lovey type, plenty of bone and low maintenance, ideal for someone to now continue with him and mould into their own.

Phenomenal 16.2hh 2018 blue and white Irish (green book, beautifully bred), quality mare, this outstanding stamp will turn heads wherever you go, and this horse will go anywhere and do any job.

This lovely horse has been to training shows, hunter trials and has lightly hunted, she has been slowly and properly produced and has gorgeous paces with a big hind step, she’s correct and spot on in every single way.

Loads of jump, bold to a fence, will help out her jockey and goes off any stride, she won’t ever say no. This mare is enthusiastic to work, always easy and has the most scopey, careful jump. A lovely kind horse on the ground, laid back and chilled out in the yard, easy to handle and do. Mannerly sort.

Blueberry is a lovely stamp, a true leg in each corner, big substantial mare and not the type you see often. Blueberry will hack alone and in company, good in traffic and easy going to hack. She will go out and do any job tomorrow with anyone on board.

Open to any vet or trainer.
