It is with great sadness I have decied to put Tassy my super cob up for sale.

She has taken me from a confident novice to going out hunting and doing xc. She comes from a hunting back ground and with that you get all the pros of a horse with that level of experience. unflappable out and about, great manners, super sure footed and 3 fantastic paces. She has however let me know she is now looking for a quieter life so I am not selling her as a hunter. Not because she can not do it physically. I just know mentally she will benefit from a loving home that will be out hacking and pleasure riding rather than pushing on so to speak. Unfortunately hunting her again has left her quite tense. Not dangerous in any way, but she will need an experienced home and rider to help her settle back to the amazing horse she has been. I have been working on this but with others to bring on I lack the time she needs and deserves.

Tassy is not much of a school master but tries very hard when she is in the arena.

Everyone who meets Tassy loves her. She has even converted people not keen on cobs to cob lovers! As said, it will be a sad day here when she leaves so her going to the right home is the of the up most importance. She is a wonderful horse, I am unfortunately the wrong jockey now.

Vetting and viewings welcome. Up to date with jabs, teeth etc. Currently batefoot but happy to be shod. Feel free to give me a call to discuss anything further. Located near Andover SP11

Once in a lifetime horse and companion. KNOCKNACREE ESPRESSO is loved by all. His breeding is unrecorded but his sire is an unregistered Clydesdale and his dam was an irish sport horse mare.

Espresso is kind and genuine, and he loves attention from anyone who passes. He has been ridden by multiple riders and judges, each always getting off with a smile on their face.

This will be a very sad sale for our whole family, 5* home only considered. Espresso is for sale only because he deserves a good showing or hunting home where he will be brought to his full potential. We have other youngsters to produce including some of his siblings, so he will not get the attention he deserves.

He is only rising 5yo in the new year and already has gained experience with half a season showing and has even done guard of honour at 2 busy events.

Each outing he showed immense improvement, as both horse and rider learned the ropes of the Irish showing scene.

He loves to hack, happily rides alone or in company. Never silly or spooky. Doesn't pull, happily stands and waits and is an armchair to sit on.

Quiet to shoe, box and clip. Lives in or out. Clean limbs. No vices and open to vetting.

Serious enquiries only.

See video for loads of photos and videos of him over the years.

A magnificent chunky 15.1hh 4yr black cob gelding by Cairnview Forest . He was bred at Cairnview stud and has been in the same home since a foal. This stud is known for producing top class high quality cobs. Coal is WIDE, leg at each corner type.

I think you’d have to throw yourself off to fall off of him 😂

He is beautifully put together, compact, good clean bone and tonnes of mane and feather. A show cob of the future.

He has been well produced. Is calm and sensible for his age. He acts like a 10yr. The type the whole family can enjoy from the kids to the grandmother.

Done beach rides, countryside hacks and works in the school. Has started jumping proving bold and brave and popped some logs out hacking.

So if you’re looking for a solid sort that is dependable and kind. He will be the one for you.

Penny is a beautiful jet black mare with two back white socks, 16h Irish draught X

She’s one that stands out anywhere you go

She has impeccable manners on the ground. She really is a lovely horse to have on the yard.

Penny has three lovely paces in the arena her schooling is coming along lovely she’s a very willing mare and just wants to please you. She also happily pops round a little course of fences which she throughly enjoys.

Penny has been out to the forest where she has been swimming in the river, jumping over logs and tyres. Which she had a lot of fun and would suit someone looking to do stuff like that in the future

I’ve taken her to mine and her first time to an unaffiliated showjumping competition where she was amazing she stood to be tacked up, with me fussing all over her and being nervous as it being my first time too. She made me feel confident on how well behaved she was being. We went into the warm up arena where there was all types of horses cantering around jumping and she took it all in her stride.

Penny is great to hack alone and in company she has seen all types of traffic and wasn’t fazed she’s more interested in being nosy at peoples houses 😂.

You can take her in an open field without any worry that she’s gonna be silly or make you feel unsafe.

In a group hack she’s happy to lead or be at the back same with cantering.

Penny is more woah than go but she’s not to the point where she wouldn’t listen to your leg she’s the perfect horse if your looking for something laid back but will have a bit of go about her when you ask.

I think penny would suit a competent teenager Or adult looking for something ready to go out and have fun at the woods, shows, hunting etc

She also has recently passed a 5 stage vetting

I have loads of Vidoes and any other questions please feel free to ask

15.2hh 5yo Irish Draught mare by Cappa Casanova out of a young Carabawn mare

A lovely, genuine mare who has been in the same home since a 2yo and carefully produced by an amateur with her future as a family horse very much in mind.

She has never been rushed and spent her first year under saddle hacking, allowing her time to mature and gain confidence. She hacks happily alone or in company and is good in traffic. Cookie is super sensible and not spooky. She has also been on a couple of fun rides, where she behaved impeccably.

Cookie has only recently started working in the school but is already proving to have an incredibly trainable brain. She is green in the school but very responsive, with a beautiful soft mouth and a lovely attitude to her work- ready to go to her first shows, which will be reflected in her price if she stays with us to do these.

She has also only recently been introduced to coloured fences and is proving super bold. She is unfazed by fillers and water trays, very straight to a fence and naturally maintains a lovely, steady rhythm both to and away from a fence.

She is a genuinely easy mare to have around and in every aspect of her day-to-day care.

Cookie could really go down any path and I'm sure she will excel at whatever she does.

Sadly, due to a change in circumstances, she is looking for a new home. She was always intended to be a forever family horse, and her education has reflected this throughout. She has been given time to grow, learn and develop with her long-term future in mind.

A lovely young mare with a sensible attitude, a trainable brain and plenty of potential to go on in a variety of directions with her next person.

Open to vet.

  • A pleasure to be around as she’s such a sweet horse

Santana has been with me for the last eight months more or less but unfortunately due to a personal circumstance I will sell her.

I had plans to breed from her in the spring and do some in hand showing but unfortunately those plans have now changed through no fault of her own. It is a personal circumstance with myself and she is such a sweetheart to be around and to deal with.

During the time that she was owned by me, she has been at two live yards where she was much loved and taken care of exceptionally well.

Her daily routine was heading out to the paddock and coming in at night during the summer months she sometimes stayed out at night. She is absolutely a pleasure to be around. She loves having a good groom and she is easy to catch.

Food is the way to her heart she loves treats and licks, she has been turned out with geldings and with other mares and young stock.

She’s just a generally easy-going mare and has been with her previous owners since she was just one years old.

So she hasn’t been tossed around from hand-to-hand or from person to person, but unfortunately due to a circumstance, I have to sell her otherwise I would’ve loved to breed my next show horse / dressage horse from her.

It is totally gut wrenching as she has been a childhood dream of mine finding a big coloured mare.

Only serious enquiries she is on livery in the Devon Cornwall border.

A copy of her passport is attached on the images. She is an Anglo European stud book registered mare.

I am selling her as a broodmare

Sunny -15hh rising 4yo absolute sweet heart of a cob absolutely nothing bothers him in life. He has been the best therapy while I have been ill.

He was broken and ridden out on hacks in company up until mid September and he came home for his holidays, he is going through a growth spurt so unfortunetly doesn’t look the straightest but he was poker straight when I bought him at the start of summer so i do believe he just needs to level out again.

He will make a beautiful sweet heavyweight for any level of rider once he is back in work. He loads , catches , stands to be trimmed and groomed and is getting to grips with the farrier for trims.

PLEASE NOTE HE IS OUT OF WORK AND i do not have endless videos as they just at the start of their ridden journey.

A cob who loves a job!

Gary is a smart cob who thrives on work and is a lovely RC all rounder or hunter type. He is very much the type of cob who likes to have a job to do and is with us looking for his new home as his owner is working a busy London job and hasn’t got time to do as much with him as Gary would like. Current owner was only wanting a couple of days a week happy hacking and Gary previously has been in an active RC home where he did all RC activities and went hunting.

Gary is a quiet ride and the more work he’s in the steadier he is! He’s quite happy to do a bit of everything and enjoys his jumping. He’s more of a whoah than go ride so would be ideal for someone who wants to go off and do everything at local level but who probably isn’t up for a sharper sports horse.

He’s really good fun and has been well schooled on the flat ( wouldn’t be his favourite discipline but he gives it a go) and loves his jumping! Gary is a real trier and happy to go both SJ and XC, he’s very genuine to jump and pops round 80cm no bother.

He would love to go back to a home where he can continue going out and doing fun things.

Gary is excellent out hunting and has been out with us and also previously in his old home, he’s sensible at the meet, good round hounds and other horses and jumps everything asked of him. Smart cob who would safely take most riders out hunting.

At home on the yard he’s easy to handle, box, catch, shoe, clip etc. he’s happy living in or out and is a friendly person.

Seen at livery. Nearly brand new quality tack available by sep negotiation.

A genuine allrounder, Rabbit is safe sensible and forward going.

Rabbit has been successfully shown as a HW and a Maxi Cob with multiple wins and qualifications including 7th Amateur HW at Royal International and 5th Hoys HW at The Great Yorkshire

He is now retired from top level showing due to splints and windgalls but these do not stop him enjoying other activities. He would excel in dressage, jumping, hunting and hacking.

He hacks alone or in company very safely

Rabbit is a very genuine allround gentleman who always aims to please, he loves attention & work. Fantastic in all ways except clipping which he really doesn't like. I have travelled the country on my own with Rabbit showing at top level and he has always been a pleasure to take out and do alone.

Rabbit loves his jumping and is very brave not fazed by fillers and he loves water.

He loves to go out in the field and is currently out 24/7 Mar to Nov and then stabled at night in the winter.

This genuine gentleman thrives on attention and will definitely be your next best friend.

  • A genuine youngster who hasn’t been overproduced.

Smokey Joe is a lovely natured 3 year old Irish Cob gelding with a bright future ahead of him. Currently standing at 15.1hh with plenty of maturing and filling out left to do, he should develop into a super substantial and versatile cob. I expect he will mature to 15.2-15.3hh.

He has been given a kind, quiet start to his education and has been backed and ridden away, lightly hacking around our country lanes both alone and in company. He has seen traffic and farm machinery and has proved sensible for his age.

Smokey is a responsive ride with a nice attitude to his work. He is snaffle mouthed and has the makings of a lovely all rounder for someone to continue producing. He has seen dogs, sheep, cows and donkeys.

He is a pleasure to have around the yard, good to catch and happy to stand patiently tied up. He gets on well with other horses and turns out happily in a mixed herd. He is good for the farrier (currently barefoot) and stands to be groomed and fussed over. He loads well onto both a trailer and a horsebox.

Smokey has had a positive introduction to ridden life and hasn’t been over produced, he is very much a youngster who still needs time to mature physically and mentally. Ideally he would benefit from some time to grow and develop over the winter before continuing his education as a four year old.

He would suit someone experienced looking for a quality young cob to bring on, build a partnership with and put their own stamp on. He has a kind nature and willing attitude, and will make someone a lovely allrounder in the future.

Smokey is offered as a promising youngster who has been lightly started, ready for someone experienced to continue his education. He would not suit a novice or nervous rider at this stage as he is still learning.

He is up to date with the farrier, dentist and worming.

  • An eye-catching cob for someone to develop, enjoy and have plenty of adventures with!

Baloo is a striking, smart young cob with character, willingness and an interesting education already behind him.

Really sweet to be around on the ground, Baloo is a lovely character and a pleasure to spend time with. He’s a seriously cool little chap with so much to offer the right person!

Professionally backed at the start of 2026, he began with plenty of hacking and some schooling before returning home to continue his education. He then spent time at Cox’s Equestrian with Jake, the stunt rider, for further schooling and desensitisation—and they thought he was a great little chap!

His adventures there included carrying flags and jousting poles, long mountain hacks, schooling and starting to jump. He even helped deliver haynets! 😅

With us, Baloo has been out schooling around show jumps and arena eventing fences, where he has been brave, scopey and shown lots of potential. He has willingly tried everything we’ve introduced him to, giving us plenty to be excited about for his future!

He also hacks well alone and in company, taking things in his stride.

Under saddle, Baloo can be tense and a little sensitive at times, so he needs a confident, capable rider to continue his education and bring out his best. He is not suitable for novices. For someone who enjoys building a partnership with a smart young horse, he has so much to offer—we feel he will give his all for the right person.

An eye-catching cob for someone to develop, enjoy and have plenty of adventures with! 💙
