  • An Old Head On Young Shoulders
  • Nicely schooled and would do a dressage test

If Only Carlsberg Made Cobs - There aren’t may cobs about like Flo. She is 16.2 and only 5 years old but an old head on young shoulders.

She would be an asset to a riding school or RDA centre.

She still has some maturing to do and will be a very impressive horse.

Although she is 5 she is more sensible than many older horses and would carry pretty much any rider.

As you can see from videos she isn’t at all spooky and is exceptionally easy

Doesn’t care what she meets out hacking, she just takes it all in her stride

She is very friendly and has a lovely kind laid back temperament.

She isn’t bothered by a wobbly unbalanced rider

Shes very adjustable will go at the ability of her rider, she will go on the buckle end and be more whoa than go with a less capable rider but if you take a contact and can ride then she will go up several gears. She understands how to work in an outline and her schooling is improving daily, with a little more polishing would do a lovely dressage test.

For such a big cob she’s very light in your hands and has good straight movement.

Her transitions both uphill and downhill are good and she is ridden in a snaffle and never strong.

On the ground she’s very gentle and could be handled by a child.

Excellent to tack up and happy to pick up all 4 hooves

Video was the first time she had seen the tarpaulin, no practice runs.

Stands to mount and dismount

No vices

Vaccinations up to date

Currently barefoot and has good hooves

Good to load, travel, catch

Open to vet

I can’t imagine the first person to meet her not falling in love, she’s one of the nicest horses that we have had

Can help with transport if required

Fred
15hh 18-year-old Irish Cob
Fred is a lovely, laid-back chap, looking for his new home.
He is a lovely stamp of a horse, a leg in each corner. The type you sit on and never want to get off.
He’s had the past year building up his current owners confidence after a riding accident from a different horse. He has done his job really well and she is now ready for the next one.
Fred would suit a confident novice. He is a cob, so he needs someone with legs that kick.

Fred is good in the heaviest traffic out hacking, never bothered by any other horse’s behaviour, great in open spaces,

Fred will happily live in or out, with mares or geldings,
He is a big, soppy boy on the ground. Easy to handle, is sedated to clip as he has ticklish legs but is very good and stands like a rock.

Fred is up to date with vaccinations. farrier, dentist, and physio.

He does prefer to see company when stabled and in the field, so he wouldn’t suit a solo yard.
The current owner hasn’t tried him solo out hacking. That is on my to-do list.

Fred is an ex riding school horse, so very chilled with different riders. He is more whoa than go, but will happily go with the right persuasion.

To note your interest please message me. He isn’t with me yet but will be in a couple of weeks.

King – Big Heart, Huge Potential, Looking for His Forever Person

Nottingham, NG12

King is a much-loved horse who is only available due to no fault of his own. This has been a very difficult decision, but my daughter’s health issues have meant she has been unable to ride, and she no longer has the confidence he truly deserves. Our absolute priority is finding him the right, knowledgeable home.

We purchased King in July 2025 from Smart Performance Horses (Sam Walton) for my daughter. Since then, he has been ridden regularly (around 4 times a week) by a loaner — usually schooling or hacking, weather dependent, especially over winter.
 

About King

King has the biggest heart and forms a strong bond with his rider. He is kind and not malicious in any way, but he does need a confident, reassuring person to bring out his best. He thrives on routine and enjoys having a job — keeping him mentally stimulated really suits him.

He works beautifully in the school, is responsive to leg and voice, and is willing and trainable.

He loves hacking and will go alone or in company. He can be a little more aware when alone, but he continues to improve with consistency. He has previously hunted and enjoys being out and about.

King can be spooky at times, but this is improving steadily with regular work and confident handling.
 

Environment & Handling

He is currently kept on a working farm and is completely used to sheep, farm machinery and general activity.

Good with farrier

Recently seen the dentist and behaved impeccably

Good to clip

Good ground manners, though benefits from confident handling

Loads and has previously transported well (has not travelled since we purchased him)

Happy to live in or out (currently mostly living out)

Bridle and rugs included, but no saddle, he is still growing so currently have one on loan.

ROSIE- Fun all rounder

15hh 7 yrs piebald cob x Welsh mare

Fun all rounder and super hack. Would enjoy doing some PC or RC and has done unaff dressage previously.

Rosie is a sweet mare who is quiet to ride, and more woah than go, she’s not sharp or silly but can have an opinion on things and as such needs a rider / handler who’s not totally novice as we feel she would quickly learn to take advantage if she thought she could. She enjoys her work in and out the school and is keen to please.

With us she hasn’t put a foot out of line but does need reminding of her manners occasionally as can be a bit rude! Nothing someone half competent can’t handle though. She has been with older novice ladies doing some dressage but quickly realised they were a bit wet and she could walk all over them.

She’s a mare who likes a firm leader and then is an absolute doddle.

Please don’t expect a cuddly mare! She has a great resting bitch face, I feel this will improve but she very much needs one to one and to find “her person “, she’s not a biter or a kicker but just not in your face and pockets and rather be left to be a horse when she can. Rosie is very much a girl who likes clear direction, she appreciates an assertive human who just tells her to get on with things.

She hacks out very well alone and in company, will go first or last. Happy to go for a gallop then go back to a steady plod. Very good in traffic. Been hacking here with everyone from novice teens upwards. She’s still a little green in the school and her canter needs a bit of work, she’s been ridden badly and very backwards previously but improves every day, She wants to work in a shape and tries hard to please just hasn’t really been taught where the go button is so can be a bit slow with her transitions currently and falls out of canter.

She’s a nice mover with flashy paces and definitely has a lot of potential to be out and about willing rosettes but needs a bit of flat boot camp first. She loves her jumping and although green as grass never says no and jumps anything you ask of her. She has taken part in jumping clinics since being with us again ridden by keen teenager. With further work she will do all PC and RC activities, unaff SJ, XC etc. she would be a nice type to take hunting as she’s steady but capable.

Perfect to catch, box, clip, shoe etc. she’s very sweet with other horses, happy to live in or out. She’s a lovely mare that just needs polishing off in to being the perfect rounder.
Seen at livery.

Happy Hacker, Weight Carrier, Ride and Drive, Low Maintenance

If your looking for a horse that has impeccable manners on the ground and when riding, something that is super safe, calm and not phased by anything, that is extremely low maintenance and can be looked after by a child.
This stunning 5 year old is sensible, calm and straightforward, she is the most loveable girl you could ever wish to meet.

Dolly is an ultimate confidence giver, exceptional 16.2hh chunky cob with a leg in each corner, this rare combination of safety, strength, experience, and a heart of gold. She is kind, bold, dependable weight carrier, ideal for a wide range of riders from beginners just starting out on the lead rein to more experienced jockeys who prefer a calm and steady ride.

Dolly is beautifully put together and has been there and done it in every sense. A calm, considerate and willing mare, she is a perfect mount for riders who want to enjoy their riding at a relaxed pace without compromising on ability and responsiveness. she has been driven prior to us getting her both Single, Pair: harnessed side-by-side to a carriage and Team in agricultural, draught, two heavy horses working together.

Dolly is currently working 4 days a week in a professional riding school environment, she has excelled with every level of rider from novices to advanced, both under saddle and during stable management sessions,
she has experience in flatwork lessons, both private and group, low level jumping and dressage. She would excel in the show ring both under saddle and in-hand.

She would be ideal for hunting. She will stand and wait calmly within large crowds and open spaces and remains completely unfazed by loud noises or horses running around her. She does not fizz up, spook or spin, and has never bucked, reared, or kicked out at another horse.

Snaffle mouth with no gadgets

Dolly loves to hack out and does so safely and calmly. She will happily hack alone or in company and has been exposed to the heaviest, fastest-moving traffic imaginable. She is completely unphased by buses, lorries, farm machinery and all types of vehicles. She remains safe and steady in all environments and does not rush or pull, even in open spaces or on the way home. She will stand patiently at the mountain block for as long as required.

Although she is happy to go at a quiet, steady pace, she is also responsive to the leg and has three balanced, steady paces. For more experienced riders, she will work with enthusiasm and energy, always staying calm and sensible.

Dolly has outstanding ground manners. She stands for hours to be groomed and fussed over, with or without a headcollar or lead rope. She is never marish or clingy, she happy living in or out. In the field, she keeps herself to herself and never causes trouble, whether stabled alone or turned out in a mixed herd.

Dolly has a history of excellent health and has never had laminitis, sweet itch, sarcoids, or any lumps, bumps, or unsoundness. She is currently barefoot with strong, healthy hooves and is equally happy to be shod. She is excellent to catch, great to load and travel, good with the farrier, vet, and dentist.

She is incredibly low maintenance, requiring no daily work. She can have weeks or even months off and return to ridden work without any fuss. She maintains her condition year-round on a simple diet and is easy to manage in every way.

She passes her annual Licence Inspection, which is the equivalent of a Stage 2 vetting.

Dolly is a rare gem. She is the perfect choice for someone looking for a calm, dependable, and capable all-rounder. Whether you are a novice rider, someone looking for a safe happy hacker, or a family looking for a versatile and loving horse, Dolly fits the bill perfectly. Dolly is ridden by children and adults, she is a genuine schoolmistress who provides confidence and enjoyment in every ride and will give her next owner years of pleasure.

This is a heartbreaking sale. As part of our regular stock rotation, we give our riding school horses the opportunity to move on to private homes every few years so they can enjoy one-on-one attention and new experiences. Dolly is ready to bring joy to her next rider and deserves the very best home.

Maverick - 15.1hh 5-year-old gelding (Turbo Cob)

Recorded breeding

Maverick is a quality young gelding with excellent presence and ability. He offers three balanced, correct paces and a bold, scopey jump.

This is not an average cob and would be best suited to a competent rider. He has no malice, but thrives on variety in his work and enjoys an active lifestyle. He happily keeps up when cantering with thoroughbreds and shows particular aptitude for jumping, including cross-country.

Maverick has a great attitude to work and is proving straightforward to manage. He hacks well both alone and in company, is sensible in traffic, and is good to load, clip, and handle in all routine aspects.

He will be hunting on a few more occasions, and further schooling videos will be taken this week.

A talented and versatile young horse with plenty of quality for someone looking for more than the usual cob

16.1hh to mature to 16.2hh blue and white part bred ID gelding rising 4 yrs

Super young horse who will go on to make a wonderful hunter, RC all rounder, hack, a real jack of all trades type. He would suit most riders but is obviously green and still learning.

Guss has got the loveliest attitude to his work, exceptionally kind and willing to please, he has recently been broken and is riding very well for his age with a lovely mouth and natural way of going and you couldn’t ask for any more from him at this point. He has three good very balanced paces. He has had very little formal education in the school and has done a couple of half days hunting ( hence the hog as no one likes plaiting! He’s not itchey!) and been out hacking both alone and in company and has proved himself as genuine and sensible. He is working naturally on the bridle and popping a few small fences in the school.

Guss is a steady and sensible sort, he is hacking out well alone and in company and has been good in all traffic met to date. He’s a really simple type of horse, adores people and fuss, excellent to clip, catch, shoe etc and wants to be your friend. He’s not sharp or silly and although young is very much one that can be picked up and put down again with no fear of the ejection button being hit!

He has a huge frame to fill and will turn in to a substantial hunter/ maxi cob type once mature. Although he is obviously green as grass he’s very willing and would suit someone as a first young horse to bring on, he’s the sort that once he finds his person he won’t ever be sold on as types like him are impossible to find as older horses. He really will go and become someone’s best mate.

Guss is an old fashioned Irish type hard to find.
