• True Allrounder in the making
• Proven Hunter / X country machine!
• Beautiful Soul who wants to please and is willing t to learn

This beautiful young gelding was bred and started in Ireland where he was mainly hacked out alone and hunted throughout the previous season. He proved to be polite with the dogs and other horses, standing at the meet. Bold and brave jumping all that he was faced with.

He was imported at the start of March '25 and given time to settle in whilst continuing with basic lunging and groundwork before spending 3 months with a professional trainer being restarted in the saddle, ensuring the basics were established in the arena, hacking out at the weekends He went on to start some lateral work and saw his first coloured fences. He began to accept both leg and the hand coming into a nice outline. He now needs to learn to stretch down working over his back more consistently seeking the contact and trusting the riders hand.

He received a glowing report and hadn't put a hoof wrong.

He is keen to please and proves very trainable can become a little anxious when unsure what is being asked of him looking to the rider for support For this reason he is not currently a Novice ride.

At this point it was believed he was unsuitable for his older disabled owner (me!) to ride. I decided to keep him and found a young rider to help bring him on with the hope he would mature and become more suitable. Sadly my health has deteriorated further and so I've concluded it's time to sell.

In the stable he is sweet and easy. He is still a young horse and is a little anxious if a stranger rushes him trying to throw a rug on without introducing themselves and saying "hello" first. Introductions over and he's an angel to handle, groom, tack up, muck out etc with or without being tied up in the stable. He will tie up outside and wait patiently with a hay net!

He is super to clip, including his head, jaw ears and under belly he will fall asleep with his headcollar over one ear, untied in the middle of a busy yard!

He is good to shoe, load and travel in a box or trailer. Good to lead, easy to catch. Enjoys attention and has always been gentle with small children and animals. He stands quietly to be hosed off all over, again untied if needed.

He is happy to have a rider legged up. At the mounting block he was initially anxious but this was worked on with gentle desensitization. Now he is more confident. With the rider in the saddle he will sometimes walk forwards. He never rushes off but this is a work in progress he will be gently reminded of his manners to wait until asked to move off. He doesn't bolt rear or buck.

Although he is not currently for a Novice rider as he is a very forward, reactive to the leg and sensitive in the hand. A confident novice rider who enjoys a forward sensitive soul would likely be ok fine. He requires further training and maturity to become the true alrounder he is already showing the potential to be. I do allow my very novice 9 year old granddaughter to ride him supervised in a small arena in walk and trot and he looks after her beautifully.

Over the past eleven months he has attended and enjoyed many pole work clinics, flat work lessons, general schooling sessions and some hacking on and off site. He is great with large vehicles and farm tractors, trailers, working machinery, lorries horse boxes etc. Also all road traffic he has met.

More recently he has started to attended jumping clinics showing a beautiful natural bascule over a fence (generally 70-80 courses showing scope for much more) Recently clearing 1.05/1.10 during a fun event. He has also participated in X country training really finding his feet, covering the ground well and thoroughly enjoying the experience.

He has started some unaffiliated competition and has been successful at dressage, show jumping and showing.

He truly has the makings of a great alrounder turning his hoof to anything with a smile on his face!

He does sound rather perfect doesn't he?

Which reading this ad makes me wonder why I'm selling him?

As I've said my health is deteriorating and is not likely to improve. He came into my life following the devastating loss of my previous horse and helped me through and I've thoroughly enjoyed his company. But he deserves to find a longer term home where he can be given further training and opportunity to thrive and reach his true potential.

Please get in touch if you have any questions or would like to come and meet this wonderful boy. He is kept in livery on a large equestrian centre with excellent facilities.

Price negotiable to the right home. With tack, rugs etc again negotiable within price.

Romeo – The Ultimate Confidence Giver

15hh 10-Year-Old Cob Gelding

Romeo is an exceptional 15hh, 10-year-old Cob gelding who offers the rare combination of safety, strength, experience and a heart of gold. He is kind, bold, dependable and a genuine weight carrier, making him suitable for a wide range of riders—from complete beginners, nervous adults and children, RDA riders, those with additional learning needs, right through to more experienced riders looking for a calm, reliable partner.

Romeo is beautifully put together and truly is a horse who has been there, done that. Calm, considerate and always willing to please, he is the definition of safe and steady. He has far more “whoa” than “go” for less experienced riders, yet for a capable rider he has another gear when asked. His adaptability allows him to happily carry a complete novice one day and then enjoy a more forward ride with an experienced rider the next.

The Ultimate All-Rounder

Romeo has spent the last 12 months working in a professional riding school, where he has excelled with every type of rider, from complete beginners to advanced riders, both under saddle and during stable management sessions.

He has extensive experience in private and group flatwork lessons and regularly takes part in our in-house showjumping and cross-country competitions. Romeo absolutely loves to jump and is confident over coloured and rustic fences, showing a careful, honest and bold technique. Prior to joining us, he competed successfully at low level in showjumping, cross-country, working hunter, one-day events and has also enjoyed hunting.

Hacking is one of Romeo’s greatest strengths. He will happily hack alone or in company and has been exposed to some of the heaviest traffic imaginable, including double-decker buses, articulated lorries, tractors and all types of farm machinery. Nothing fazes him. He remains calm and relaxed in every environment and never becomes strong or silly. He can gallop across open fields with loose horses running alongside him before immediately coming back to walk on a long rein or standing quietly while other horses continue galloping around him. He is genuinely one of the most sensible horses you could wish to ride and is never sharp, spooky or silly.

During his time at the riding school, Romeo has been nothing short of outstanding. He is incredibly forgiving when riders lose their balance, lose a stirrup or make a mistake into a fence. He always looks after his rider and never takes advantage. His substantial build, combined with his calm temperament, sure-footedness and kind nature, gives nervous riders enormous confidence. He will stand patiently at the mounting block for as long as required without moving a foot.

I can honestly say Romeo has no quirks, vices or unpleasant traits.

Although perfectly happy to amble along at a quiet pace, Romeo is responsive to the leg and offers three lovely, balanced paces. For a more experienced rider he will happily work into a soft outline while remaining relaxed and obedient. He has never bucked, reared, bolted, kicked or bitten. He is ridden in a simple snaffle at all times with no gadgets whatsoever.

Outstanding Manners

Romeo has impeccable manners both in and out of the stable. He will happily stand for hours to be groomed and fussed over, with or without a headcollar. He is polite, affectionate and incredibly easy to handle.

He is equally happy living in or out and settles well whether stabled individually or turned out in a mixed herd, he is currently in a mixed herd and solo field in between lessons.

Romeo has an excellent health history and has never suffered from laminitis, sweet itch, sarcoids or any significant lumps, bumps or soundness issues.

He is currently barefoot with strong, healthy feet but is equally happy to be shod if preferred. He is excellent to catch, clip, bath, load, travel, shoe, and is a pleasure for the farrier, vet and dentist.

He is incredibly low maintenance and requires no daily work. He can enjoy weeks or even months off before returning to work exactly the same horse. He maintains his condition well on a simple diet and is exceptionally easy to manage in every respect.

Romeo has also recently passed our annual Riding School Licence Inspection, the equivalent of a Stage 2 veterinary inspection.

A Horse You’ll Struggle to Replace

Romeo is a genuinely rare horse. Whether you’re looking for a confidence giver, a safe hacking companion, a family horse, an RDA-type horse, a riding club horse or simply an honest all-rounder to enjoy, he ticks every box.

He is a genuine schoolmaster who gives his rider confidence every time they sit in the saddle and will undoubtedly provide his next owner with many years of enjoyment.

This is a heartbreaking sale. As part of our regular riding school stock rotation, we give our horses the opportunity to move on to loving private homes every few years so they can enjoy one-to-one attention and a more varied lifestyle. Romeo has been an exceptional member of our team and now deserves a wonderful forever home. Sold on behalf of a working livery.

We have several horses and ponies available.

• Welsh Section D
• Bay
• Mare
• 5 years
• 15hh / 153cm

• Absolutely full of presence
• Backed and began riding away
• Active, quality paces

Bags of 'look at me' presence and personality.

Welsh parents and a Clydesdale Grandparent. Breeding sadly not recorded but traceable.

Kerys came to A.E Equestrian last year to be lightly backed and then turned away to mature. She didn't take many weeks to get hacking out well.

About weeks ago when Keyrs came back we had a very honest discussion with her owner that whilst Keyrs was progressing well with being restarted she is a very young, green active horse who will take a good year to really settle to ridden life as she would like her, therefore she part exchanged her for another horse, more suitable to her lifestyle and riding confidence.

We think she is fab, she has all the bravado of a Welsh, is a powerful, active and attractive model and is proving trainable.

We believe she will be a fabulous all-rounder in time and excel in all RC areas, maybe working hunter will be her bag!

She needs a competent, knowledgeable home who understand the breed, and can competently educate just backed horses.

She is hacking well and has had a walk, trot and canter in the arena. Last week she did a couple of rears but rode on through this, she is a young horse with a big heart and even bigger personality so needs arson to match this.

Genuine enquiries please. She will carry to her education and hopefully join a fun ride or two in Autumn.

• Welsh Part Bred
• Piebald
• Gelding
• 8 years
• 15hh / 153cm

• Fun forward going cob
• Enjoys jumping
• Seen a variety of venues

Louis is a super fun quality cob.

He has a very can do attitude to life and being ridden.

He has hunted once which he thoroughly enjoyed and looked the part at! He has been XC schooling, done a little unaff shows and a farm ride.

Louis came to us at A.E Equestrian early this year after his owner didn't feel quite suited to him, he had grown up in a big riding club environment and was considered a novice confidence giver but really he is more active than this. We then sold him to a family with a keen grand-daughter and family but he forgot his ground manners in this small environment and has come back!

All the above really detracts from the fantastic Welsh X cob he is. He hacks well, is great with traffic, pops small fences and might go and pop around local un-aff SJ next week time allowing. He just hasn't found the right people/ set up unfortunately. He really is a true RC/ PC all-rounder go getter! Would be fab for clinics, camps.

On the ground he is super with us. He banged the door on day one and is a bit of an attention seeker, especially if you over treat him, but otherwise he is hard to fault; clipping, shoeing, bathing etc all great. Lives in or out. Doesn't need riding daily etc. Hacks well alone, will ride and lead and regularly nannies young horses.

His flatwork could do with some supplying up but he is very willing and has not really had consistency of late.

Not wasted a present but too good to not be used! We will carry on over the supper and hopefully do a bit of eventing by the end of summer if not sold.

These types are so hard to find.

Too forward for a novice and has quite a Welsh way of going. Would really suit someone wanting to get out and ride and have fun.

• For hacking and low level dressage
• Confidence Giving Type
• Home on Quiet Private Yard

I'm searching for a kind, genuine horse to become part of the family. Home awaits on a peaceful private yard where horses are treated like royalty!

Here's the Spec!

- 16–17hh depending on build

- Age 6 years + - the right temperament is most important

- Confident out hacking alone and in company, sensible in groups and solid with traffic

- Kind, genuine and level-headed rather - nothing sharp or spooky

- A horse who'd appreciate a quieter lifestyle rather than the hustle and bustle of a busy competition yard.

- Nothing that gets silly after a few days off

I am looking to do lots of hacking, some low level dressage (Novice level), pole work and the odd riding club clinic. Hopefully my new partner would enjoy yearly trips to the beach and a couple of fun rides with friends.

Please get in touch if you think you may have what I am looking for. I would be more than happy to keep in contact.

• Mother daughter share

One hundred percent bomb proof. Horse. Absolutely has never bucked or reared. Not nappy.

Hacks great alone or company. A beautiful canter x. Ive owned Rocky. Just under a year and total has given me confidence to go up the ladder. So honest with her jumping.

She really loves it. Locks onto a fence. And equally great on the cross country course.

Last time out we were second. Bs.

A saint to hack. U can leave her and shes still as good.

The only thing I would say. She travels better in company.

Can send lots of video ect

• Stunning 7yr old dapple grey Irish draught gelding
• Beautifully put together traditional Irish Draught
• Proven himself to be a super quick learner, and careful over a fence

Stunning 7yr old dapple grey Irish draught gelding. Standing 17.2hh.

He has been owned since coming over from Ireland as a three yr old so full history known.

This beautifully put together traditional Irish draught has been carefully broken having come over from Ireland and produced, he schools well on the flat and has jumped a course of jumps, despite his size he is polite in his mouth and very responsive to the leg. Making him a lovely ride.

He has proven himself to be a super quick learner, and careful over a fence.

Thor would excel in the show ring, he is short coupled and has great conformation, however he would also make a super low level competition horse. He thoroughly enjoys work, and learning new skills.

His hacking is good, he is unphased by traffic and hacks happily alone or in company.

He can be a little green occasionally and would suit a rider who can ensure he continues to gain confidence and progress to become the armchair ride he is destined to be.

• A chunky build, a cheeky personality, and lots of love to give

Hi, I’m Koby, a handsome 14hh gelding with a chunky build, a cheeky personality, and lots of love to give.

I’ve been with my current owner for the past 6 years, so this is a very sad sale and will only be to the very best home. My owner has made the difficult decision to move on and is looking for someone special to become my new best friend.

I’ve had lots of fun over the years, including cross-country, show jumping, beach rides, and plenty of adventures. I love getting out and about and enjoy having a job to do.

I’m a kind, affectionate boy, but I can be a little nappy at times, so I’m looking for a confident, kind and patient rider who will understand me and help me continue to thrive. In return, I’ll be a loyal partner and a wonderful friend.

Finding the right home is far more important than a quick sale. If you think you could offer me the loving forever home I deserve, we’d love to hear from you. Message for more information
