HARRI - ALL ROUNDER GENTLEMAN


Ref #: 401894
  • Potential to be a winning show horse or working hunter
  • Nice paces and an amazing scope
  • Keen to learn and polite in doing so
£6,750 ONO
  • Welsh Section D
  • Bay
  • Gelding
  • 8 years
  • 14.2 hands
  • Potential to be a winning show horse or working hunter
  • Nice paces and an amazing scope
  • Keen to learn and polite in doing so
I’ve had Harri 3½ years, since he was 4 years old and it has been the most rewarding few years ever, but now it’s time for him to make somebody else’s dreams come true. Due to my irregular shift work I don't have the time to devote to Harri. He has such potential and, but sadly I just don't have the time any more. It's not fair to him and it breaks my heart.

Harri is such a gentleman to hack alone and in company, and isn't not fussed by surrounding noise and traffic.

On the ground he is fantastic to handle, easy to catch, tack up and groom; stands brilliant for the farrier, and also the dentist (not sedated)

Harri has had experience at different places such as winning the Royal Highland as a foal with his Dam, local pony club shows where he’s thrived, and county shows where he hasn’t put a foot wrong. He’s been to the beach numerous times and also cross country where he’s had no fear to jump what’s in front of him. He's also amazing to load and travel

Although Harri has been ridden by novice riders and been as good as gold, he 100% needs somebody who is confident and knowledgeable as he is a lot of horse to handle and has lots to give

He is a dream to school and jump where he’s proven his scope not just over wings but cross country also, with working hunter potential!

Harri is open for viewings and vetting,

Rising 2 year old (April) gelding. Currently standing approx 15.3hh. Expected to make 16.2hh.

Warmblood x Percheron

Bred for the temperament of a Percheron with the athleticism of the Warmblood. This lovely boy is golden to handle and be around. Good to catch, lead, change rugs, feet trim etc.

His lines back date to the one and only Catherston Dazzler. Beautiful floaty movement and is starting to come into his own now.

Has been led out on the roads with no bother, life doesn’t seem to scare to lad at all. Has the makings to be a lovely event, riding club, hunt or even police horse. Very docile in temperament and will stand to be fussed all day.

He did have an argument with some fencing as a foal and has superficial scarring on his hind legs. Will not affect his future career at all, just wouldn’t be suitable for showing.

Extremely sad sale of a much loved youngster who I had high hopes of producing myself. Happy to discuss reason for sale on enquiry.

Maggie is a super hack where she is happy to walk by anything and is good in traffic. She is a real sit on and daydream hack. Maggie is really kind in the stable and loves her cuddles.

Jack is a super sports cob! 

He came from Ireland as a 4 yo, he has been beautifully produced and this shows in his flat work where he has 3 balanced paces, he is active and expressive. He knows some lateral work and his changes are there too.

Jack also jumps! He is straightforward to a fence and enjoys it.

He also enjoys hunting, he’s been out with the Essex and Suffolk.

He has done some showing and dressage. Beach rides and hacking in more recent years but Jack will turn his hoof to anything!

He is a doddle to have around, you can clip him without even tying him up.

He is a competition hose though and would not suit a complete novice, he would be wasted and he has so many rosettes to win!!!

Videos available, Jack is based in Suffolk with good trial facilities.

Super lovely all rounder

Really sweet and kind temperament.

She was broken earlier this year and has been super straightforward, she is riding nicely in the arena and has hacked both alone and in company. Been on the roads a few times and didnt mind about the traffic, seen farm machinery ect.

A really easy horse to handle and deal with both on and off the ground. When she matures and fills out would probably look very smart hogged out.

Hopefully going to get her out xc schooling next week.

She is a real sensible type with a laid back nature, ready to go and see the world and have lots of fun

  • Spirit - 14.3 Smart, Flashy Cob
  • Loves his trail hunting and has hunted here on the Mendips
  • Evented up to 70cm, riding club clinics and camps

Spirit - 14.3 Smart, Flashy Cob Spirit is a 12 year old 14.3 cob gelding looking for his new home I have owned Spirit for 6 years when I was just starting out and have produced him myself, we have done a bit of everything including low level eventing up to 70cm, riding club clinics and camps along with hacking and hunting where he makes you feel safe.

He loves his trail hunting and has hunted here on the Mendips and has also enjoyed days on Exmoor coping with all terrains and has jumped walls and rails. Can provide many references.

He loves having a job and can step it up for a more confident rider but he has also looked after more novice riders allowing them to learn the ropes. He is good in open spaces and hacks both alone and in company we have done numerous fun rides.

He is based on a busy livery yard and is used to heavy machinery and hacks straight onto a busy main road without issue. He is a balanced ride in all three paces and can produce a tidy dressage test and can literally turn his hoof to anything.

He is a clever, cheeky cob who is good to shoe, load (travels in lorry or trailer without issue), he is naturally a hairy cob and I keep him fully clipped out all year around. He is good to clip all over but does need some mild sedation for his legs but have always done this myself. He is clever and on the ground he will try it on if he thinks he can get away with it so does need a confident handler however I have always managed this and can discuss further.

He is a much loved member of the family and only reason for selling is I am looking to step up now and he is ready to show someone else the ropes. He is fit and ready to go and is up to date with vaccinations and teeth. Tack available by seperate negotiation. O

pen to any vetting or trainer. Excellent trial facilities. Sensible offers will be considered.

Oreo, a striking 5-year-old cob gelding standing at 16hh. Oreo is a truly eye-catching horse with beautiful, balanced conformation and an exceptionally pretty presence. His gorgeous white tail gives him a unique look that turns heads everywhere he goes — he’s one of those horses that always gets noticed for his good looks and charm. With his smart markings and lovely build, Oreo is the perfect example of a well-put-together cob, combining strength, balance, and quality in one impressive package.

Oreo has a wonderful temperament and is a genuine pleasure to have around. He is kind, good-natured, and always willing to please, making him an ideal partner for riders of different levels. Here, he is regularly ridden by novice students and takes everything in his stride, showing patience and a sensible outlook that makes him very easy to trust. He works in a snaffle, is light in the hand, and goes sweetly off the leg, giving his rider a comfortable and confidence-building ride every time.

He’s lovely to hack, whether alone or in company, and is excellent in traffic. He’s well used to all kinds of farm machinery and country life, making him a brilliant choice for someone who enjoys relaxed rides through lanes, fields, or open countryside. Oreo is also a lovely, straightforward horse to take hunting — he’s sensible in open spaces, polite in a group, and enjoys getting on with the job.

Oreo has been schooled on the flat, over show jumps, and across cross-country fences. He’s honest and brave to a fence, has a good natural rhythm, and is already confidently jumps up to 90cm here. With his three balanced, comfortable paces and his enthusiastic, can-do attitude, he shows great potential for any all-round job. He’s the type of cob who will happily turn his hoof to a bit of everything — from hacking and hunting to riding club and fun days out.

He is easy to handle in every way — good to shoe, box, catch, ride, and in traffic. Oreo has no stable vices and is open to any vetting. His calm and adaptable temperament means he would suit a wide variety of homes: he would make a fantastic mother–daughter share, a brilliant addition to a riding school, or a trustworthy and fun happy hacker for someone wanting an easy, enjoyable companion.

The price includes delivery to your yard anywhere in the UK, and we offer an exchange if you’re not completely happy with him.
Scroll down to view his video and see what a lovely, genuine horse he is. For more information, please don’t hesitate to call me anytime on 00353 868077626 or email gertytynan@gmail.com.
