Harold is an outstanding 8-year-old full Irish Draught standing at 17.2hh. I have owned him since he was a 3-year-old and have produced him myself, making this an incredibly difficult decision.

Don’t be put off by Harold’s size, I am a slight 5’7. I have produced Harold since I was 17 years old. He is perfect in every way and a firm favourite on the yard.

He truly is the definition of a gentle giant. Harold has the kindest temperament and is trusted to be handled, led, turned out and brought in by complete novices. He has impeccable manners both at home and away and is a pleasure in every aspect. He is good to load, travel, clip, shoe, bath, have his teeth done. He travels perfectly in a trailer, and I regularly compete on my own with him as he stands quietly and behaves impeccably.

Harold is an incredibly versatile horse who has enjoyed success across multiple disciplines. We have been active members of the British Riding Club, competing and training in groups. He has competed British Showjumping at British Novice and Discovery level, although this has never been our main focus and my own lack of confidence over bigger fences is reflected in his record rather than his ability.

He has lightly evented both affiliated and unaffiliated at BE90 level and is confidently training at BE100. Dressage has been our main focus this last year and Harold has really excelled. Last season we qualified for the Petplan Area Festivals, achieving three top-three placings and a top-ten finish across Prelim and Novice classes. We have recently stepped up to Elementary and are now training Medium movements.

Harold hacks alone or in company, happily goes in front or behind, and is never spooky, strong or silly. He absolutely loves adventures, whether that's mountain rides, farm rides or, best of all, beach rides. He is always ridden in a snaffle in every discipline.

In 2025, Harold was selected to appear on Horse & Country's *All Star Academy*, where he spent a week training with some of the sport's leading professionals, all of whom commented on his trainability, attitude and exceptional temperament.

Harold has been a huge part of my life and owes me absolutely nothing. He is a genuine all-rounder with a heart of gold who would suit someone looking for a safe, versatile partner to enjoy a variety of disciplines. Equally, he has the ability to continue progressing with the right rider.

Hundreds of photos, videos and his full competition record are available,along with extensive footage on Instagram and Facebook under **@eventing.haroldx**.

Harold has a custom-made Erreplus jump saddle and Equipe dressage saddle, both available by separate negotiation.

**A five-star home is absolutely essential for this very special boy, Reluctantly reduced to find the right home as the youngsters need to come in for the winter**

Mabel - approx 15.2, 5 year old Irish cob mare.

A quality cob with fantastic conformation, good mover with a rocking horse canter.

Mabel is a lovely type of cob, substantial but not heavy in her way of going or hard work to get going. She’s a lovely active cob that wants to do the job and enjoys her work.

Working sweetly in all 3 paces in the arena, pops a fence, good in open spaces, hacks alone or in company and has been good in the traffic we’ve met. Has spent all summer having fun hacking. Excellent to box up and take out and about either on her own or with friends.

Not at a stage in her education where she’d want a wobbly novice but absolutely not a difficult cob, just wants a home that can continue bringing her on. Doesn’t need riding every day to stay sane.

Super sweet mare that is a real pet on the ground, cuddly sort that wants to please.

Good to catch/load/clip/bath/trim - barefoot with feet like concrete!

Sold by us last winter to current owner who is sadly having to hang up her boots. Very sad sale on behalf of her owner.

Passed 5 stage when I imported from Ireland, passed a strict 5 stage when owner bought. No lumps/bumps/vices.

Up to date on teeth/worming/jabs.

• Carefully Produced – Exciting Riding Club / Hunter Prospect
• Sensible, Genuine & Straightforward Beyond His Years
• Traditional Irish Type – Plenty of Substance & Quality

Rocko is a super, heavier-set Irish gelding with a lovely temperament and a really willing attitude towards his work. He is the sort that is increasingly hard to find – a proper traditional type with plenty of substance, a sensible head and a very exciting future ahead of him.

Rocko was imported from Ireland as a 3-year-old at the beginning of last year, having been lightly backed in October. Rather than rushing him, he was then turned away and given the winter to mature before being brought back into work in April. He has been steadily produced since and has taken everything asked of him in his stride.

Lovely to Ride

For a 4-year-old, Rocko is riding away really nicely. He schools well on the flat, works in a nice contact and has a very willing attitude towards learning.

He does everything in a snaffle and gives his rider a lovely straightforward feel. He is still a young horse with plenty more to learn, but has a really good foundation for somebody to continue producing.

We feel Rocko would be ideally suited to a BHS Stage 2 standard rider or above who can continue his education and enjoy producing a quality young horse.

Exciting Jumping Prospect

Rocko has only recently started his jumping education but has taken to it exceptionally well.

He is willing and genuine, really seems to enjoy his jumping and is showing plenty of natural ability. He is improving every time and has been very straightforward about everything we’ve introduced him to so far.

We haven’t rushed him or over-jumped him – he’s been allowed to learn at his own pace – but what he has shown us already makes us very excited about his future.

Been Out & Seen the World

Rocko has also been shown in hand, where he behaved beautifully and took the whole experience in his stride. The atmosphere, other horses and everything going on around him didn’t faze him, which is another great reflection of his sensible and willing temperament.

Super to Hack

Rocko hacks alone and in company and has been out and seen traffic.

He is sensible and level-headed and is gaining more experience every time he goes out. He is happy to leave the yard without another horse and equally enjoys hacking in company. He hacks over all types of terrain with no problems at all and takes everything in his stride.

A Lovely Young Horse for the Future

What we particularly like about Rocko is his attitude. He is a genuine young horse who wants to learn and tries to do what is asked of him.

At 15.1hh with plenty of substance, he is a lovely traditional type who could go on to make a cracking riding club horse, hunter, allrounder or grassroots prospect.

He hasn’t been rushed or overproduced and is now at the perfect stage for somebody to continue his education and put their own stamp on him.

A really likeable young horse with a great foundation and bags of potential for the future.

Snaffle mouthed. Open to any vetting.

William has three beautiful paces and works very sweetly on the flat. He is currently competing at 80/90cm and schooling up to 1.10m at home. He’s very scopey and has plenty of ability to continue up the levels, although his current owner has been very happy competing at this level. He really enjoys his jumping, is confident over fillers and cross-country fences and gives you a great feeling.

Hacking is a huge plus with William, he is absolutely perfect in traffic and completely unfazed by cars, vans, lorries and farm traffic. He hacks happily alone or in company and is a really enjoyable horse to get out and about on.

Ultimate Confidence Giver

Cole is an exceptional 15.3hh chunky Irish Cob, 6yrs, gelding who offers the rare combination of safety, strength, experience, and a heart of gold. He is kind, bold, dependable, a massive weight carrier, and ideal for a wide range of riders – from complete beginners, nervous adults and children to more experienced jockeys who prefer a calm and steady ride.

Cole is beautifully put together and has been there, done that, in every sense. A calm, considerate and willing gelding, he is the definition of safe and steady. He has more woah than go, making him a perfect mount for riders who want to enjoy their riding at a relaxed pace without compromising on ability or responsiveness.

Ideal for Beginners, RDA All-Round Riders

Cole has worked extensively in a professional riding school environment for the past 18 months, and he has excelled with every level of rider, from total novices to advanced. He is also a firm favourite for RDA (Riding for the Disabled Association) and special requirements sessions, both under saddle and during stable management and therapy activities.

He has experience in flatwork lessons, both private and group, as well as participating in our in-house showjumping and cross-country competitions. He is confident over coloured and rustic fences and has a big bold, careful jump, he will basically jump anything, he never refuses or stops. He is not scared of any kind of fence, from water jumps or scary fillers, he always takes care of his riders, trotting or cantering in steadily to each jump and helping the rider out If they come in on a bad stride.

He would easily compete in showjumping, cross-country, working hunter, one-day events and hunting. He came from a hunting family back in Ireland prior to me purchasing him.

Cole also absolutely loves to hack out and does so safely and calmly. He will happily hack alone or in company and has been exposed to the heaviest, fastest-moving traffic imaginable. He is completely unfazed by buses, lorries, farm machinery and all types of vehicles. He remains safe and steady in all environments and does not rush or pull, even in open spaces or on the way home. You can gallop him across open fields with loose horses running alongside him, then immediately pull him up and allow him to walk on a long rein or ask him to stand while horses run around him. He is most definitely not sharp, spooky or spinny.

He has been truly exceptional during his time at the riding school. He is unbelievably forgiving when riders lose their balance, lose their stirrups or have a bad stride into a fence. He always takes care of his riders. He will walk, trot, canter from voice commands without using the reins in both upward and downward transitions.

His substantial build, with a leg in each corner, combined with his calm disposition, sure-footedness and gentle nature, gives even the most nervous riders the confidence to progress and excel. He will stand patiently at the mounting block for as long as needed without moving an inch. I can honestly say he has absolutely no quirks or negative traits.

Although he is happy to go at a quiet, steady pace, he is also responsive to the leg and has three beautiful, balanced, steady paces. For more experienced riders, he will work into a nice outline with enthusiasm and energy while always staying calm and sensible. He has NEVER bolted, bucked, reared, kicked or bitten. He is the most loving, kind gelding you could ever wish to meet. Snaffle mouthed with absolutely no gadgets.

Manners, Temperament and Handling

Cole has outstanding ground manners. He stands for hours to be groomed and fussed over, with or without a head collar or lead rope. He is not clingy and is happy living in or out. In the field, he keeps himself to himself and never causes trouble, whether stabled alone or turned out in a mixed herd.

Cole has a history of excellent health and has never had laminitis, sweet itch, sarcoids, or any lumps, bumps or unsoundness. He has a full veterinary history from birth and has only had two owners.

He is currently barefoot with strong, healthy hooves and is equally happy to be shod. He is excellent to bath and catch, great to load and travel, and fantastic with the farrier, vet and dentist.

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

He passes our riding school annual Licence Inspection, which is the equivalent of a Stage 2 vetting.

A Truly Special Gelding

Cole is a rare gem. He is the perfect choice for someone looking for a calm, dependable and capable all-rounder. Whether you’re a nervous adult, a beginner rider, someone looking for a safe happy hacker, or a family looking for a versatile and loving horse, Cole fits the bill perfectly. He is a genuine schoolmaster who provides confidence and enjoyment in every ride and will give his next owner years of pleasure.

Why Is He for Sale?

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 two years, so they can enjoy one-to-one attention and new experiences. Cole is ready to bring joy to his next rider and deserves the very best home. He has been truly exceptional, sold on behalf of a working livery.

A heartbreaking sale of a truly special boy.

6-year-old, 14.1hh traditional cob who really is a true gentleman in every way. We originally bought him for driving, but sadly my grandma is no longer able to drive, so we have made the incredibly difficult decision to find him a new home.

He is an absolutely stunning traditional type, with masses of mane and feather. He really does turn heads wherever he goes and has the temperament to match his looks. ❤️

He is the sort that is very hard to find. Completely bombproof, kind, genuine and incredibly loving. He absolutely adores children and has happily had children on his back being led around the village. He takes everything in his stride and has a wonderful, sensible temperament.

He is brilliant to box, shoe and clip, loves being bathed and absolutely loves fuss and affection. He is easy, genuine and a pleasure to have around.

A proper family cob who would be an absolute asset to any home. He has the looks, temperament and personality and really is a true gentleman in every way.

This is a genuinely heartbreaking sale, so finding the right home is far more important to us than simply selling him. He deserves a loving home where he will be adored and enjoyed.

You cant get much sweeter than this lovely boy. He has the most wonderful temlerament, incredibly easy going and just kobes to be fussed.

Having recently come over from Ireland, where he has taken part in plently of hacking and sponsored rides. He is great to hack in both wide open spaces and on the road in the heaviest of traffic including big farm machiney and lorries.

He has also taken part in some local showing shows to gain experience and see the world where he remained his same calm and easy going self behaving perfectly.

With his age in mind, he is obviously not the finished article, however his wonderful trainable temperament and easy going attitude make up for that. You cant help but fall in live with him.
