The kindest mare you will ever meet who is really coming into her own.
15.2hh 5yr old reg ID x cob by King of Mourne.

Jessie is a very kind, sweet horse who people cannot help but fall in love with. Not only is she beautiful to look at, very nice short coupled conformation, big uphill paces she also has the best personality a horse can have.

Not at all marish, she turns out with mares, geldings or alone, excellent to catch, load, shoe, bath, in and out of the stable and is just an absolute pleasure to have around.

Jessie improves every time under saddle, schooling nicely in all 3 paces and learning some basic lateral work. She’s intelligent and a quick learner, however she wouldn’t suit a novice rider as still has so much to learn herself although hasn’t bucked, reared, napped or done anything out of line.

We have popped a few fences which she seems to enjoy, she always has a go and never says no.

Jessie hacks alone or in company, she’s excellent in traffic, hacks over the M62 and over railway crossings, stands at traffic lights and will hack past a busy school whilst children are playing.

Absolutely no vices, the loveliest horse to have on the yard. Totally clean legged and excellent feet (only shod in front) no blemishes. Would either be hogged out as a cob or would plait as a show hunter.

Up to date with worming, farrier and dentist.

Only a very special home need apply as she really wants a best friend.

Caoimhe is the easiest horse on the yard, loads herself onto our trailer, brilliant in traffic, easy to catch/shoe/clip etc.

Owned since a 3 year old, Caoimhe has done a bit of everything; unaffiliated dressage, showjumping, hunting, funrides, clinics, hunter trials, riding camps, beach rides, local working hunter classes; she is a true all rounder with a sensible brain and would make the ultimate mother/daughter share.

I take her out competing by myself and she’ll stand at or in the trailer with no fuss. Complimented every outing! Recorded breeding - green book.

Genuine reason for sale. I’d love her to go to a home where she’ll be fully enjoyed and benefit from a varied lifestyle!

Will be sold with her fitted Albion K2 saddle and made-to-measure bridle.

Will only go to the very best home - no rush to sell.

He really is a lovely chap who is ready to be loved and go and see the world!

Frizzy Punchbowl

16.1hh | 6-year-old (2019) | Pure Bred Irish Draught

Sire: Devils Punchbowl

Dam: Frizzy View

Frizzy is an honest, willing young horse with a genuinely lovely temperament. He is eye-catching and has plenty of raw potential, showing promise across a variety of disciplines. He works in three rhythmical, balanced paces, with an especially impressive canter.

He has popped a range of small fences and shows enthusiasm for his jumping. Out hacking, Frizzy is excellent both alone and in company, and is confident taking the lead—often guiding younger horses past unfamiliar sights. He is accustomed to different types of traffic and takes everything in his stride.

He has attended schooling outings and is now ready to continue his education with some low-level competitions or local shows.

On the ground, Frizzy is kind and easy to handle - good to catch, shoe, clip and a pleasure around the yard. However, he is a young, green horse and therefore requires a capable, experienced rider to bring out his potential and continue his education correctly. He is versatile enough to appeal both to an ambitious rider and to someone seeking a special horse to develop a long-term partnership with.

Frizzy is a pure bred, DNA tested, Irish Draught and has excellent breeding which is reflected in his quality.

This is a very sad sale as his owner has switched to western riding. Only the best of homes will be considered.

Full Irish Draught Standing at approx 16.2 hh, 5 years. Breeding - by Devils Punchbowl (Crannagh Hero) out of a Westmeathe Lad Dam.

Red has been professionally backed and bought on slowly, trained using natural horsemanship methods. Time and care has been taken to give him the best possible start in his ridden life.

Red now needs a kind experienced person to take him out and see the world - not a nervous nelly like me! He is being sold from the field so please don’t expect to come and try riding him. His new person Must have experience with large, green horses.

- Groundwork: Red has done lots of natural horsemanship groundwork, flag training and been walked out in hand both alone and in company. He has started some in hand lateral work. He has been introduced to traffic.

- Ridden: Red can walk, trot and canter in the arena and is calm doing this also in an open grass field. He has done plenty of pole work including some raised poles. He has started some lateral work under saddle.

- Isn’t the type that needs riding every day. You can very much pick up and put him down. He is snaffle mouthed at all times. He is so easy to tack up it is like tacking up grandmas horse!

- Lives in or out. Hardy Irish type and goes out happily in all weathers.

- Barefoot, good Irish feet. Up to date with vaccinations and dentist. No health issues. Had two minor sarcoids removed 18 months ago and no return.

- Contact me for extensive video and a chat. May consider LWVTB for the right person.
