Murffy , 14hh, cob cross

Murffy is a smart little cob with a big personality, a super low level all rounder and hack.

Confident in traffic farm machinery, stabled on a working farm. Hacks alone and in company, always snaffle mouthed. He has been on a few pleasure rides, will go at the front or back. Suits a competent rider as we have found he can sometimes spook with a novice.

On the whole he is very low mileage and has just been used as a hack. He does school really well with three good paces, though he is steady in the school he is quite forward going so wouldn’t suit a complete novice.

Loads and travels well, he’s great for the farrier and dentist, to be clipped and groomed, he loves attention is a real yard favourite.

Lives in or out, happily turns out alone. Most suits a quiet yard environment, and a calm competent rider.

Correct conformation and straight moving, open to any vetting.

Very sad sale

Based in Darrington, West Yorkshire. Viewings welcome with great trial facilities.

BOBBY

Easy, fun and cool 2020 cob cross bay gelding standing at 15.2hh. Bobby is very much an old head on young shoulders.

He has been beautifully started with so much ground work (same owner since 3YO) meaning he’s not been rushed and has had plenty of consistency with his training. He isn’t remotely sensitive or sharp and he’s very much a happy chap.

Bobby is snaffle mouthed, he has three lovely paces with a great step and an extremely comfortable canter, he is a nice leg on steady ride but is responsive and doesn’t make it hard work.

Bobby has seen coloured fences and XC fences, he has a brilliant technique and a very willing and ‘can do’ attitude. He will jump from trot or canter and doesn’t mind if you don’t get it right, a genuine sort.

Hacking wise, he’s super. He will go solo or with others, the same in open spaces as he is in the arena, and doesn’t look at traffic or the heavy stuff, just a nice little riding club type with a really sensible brain who will go on and do anyone’s job.

A real sweetheart on the ground, kind, affectionate and completely trustworthy. Just a genuinely really lovely little horse who wants to get it right.

Open to any vet or trainer £10750

12 year old stallion , approx 16,1hh. CHAPS graded.

Gov is looking for a home as an allrounder/happy hacker or at a stud.

Gov has a lovely temperament. He has done a bit of everything, ridden & inhand showing, dressage (elementary level), pleasure rides and a little bit jumping for fun.

He absolutely loves to hack and will go alone or in company. He is great to shoe, bath, clip, catch, load etc. he has no vices. He is very affectionate and loves a cuddle. Can have a loving nibble every now and then but that’s as far as it goes.

We have mainly done ridden showing with him, Qualifying for HOYS in 2021 & 2023. However, he is now retired from showing and finds it boring. Gov would prefer to have fun, go on pleasure rides, hacking and beach rides.

He loves in-hand showing and although he has never covered with his temperament I think he would be an asset to a stud. He is PSSM1 negative.

He is a gentleman to ride and has been ridden by most of the family.

Gov deserves the best home and this of upmost importance.

Only for sale due to personal circumstances. 12 year old stallion , approx 16,1hh. CHAPS graded.

Quality Irish Draught Gelding – 4 Years Old, 16hh

George is a beautifully put-together 4-year-old chestnut fully registered Irish Draught gelding, standing at 16hh. This young horse is a real head-turner with his classic good looks, solid bone, and straight, correct movement.

He has been professionally started and is riding sweetly on the flat with a willing attitude and soft mouth. Shows three balanced, rhythmical paces and is beginning to work into a consistent contact. Lightly introduced to poles and has popped fences with ease – showing promise for a future in any sphere.

Good to handle, load, catch, and for the farrier. He’s been hacked alone and in company, proving sensible and level-headed in new environments. Has been cross country and equally as sensible. He’s proving to be bold enough to make a fantastic future eventer or hunter.

This is a quality young horse with a great brain and temperament – ready to further his education with a competent rider. Would excel in the show ring, eventing, hunting, or as a smart all-rounder.

  • Totally correct conformation.
  • Going to be an absolute star in the showing world.

This beautiful cob gelding is a true 1 in a million of any cob you could possibly meet

He is going to be an absolute star in the showing world as he is as unique as he is  beautiful and he is a very good moving cob he moves 100% straight and is good and light on his feet and has very good hooves.

He has totally correct conformation

Admittedly he is a bit to fat at the moment due to me leaving him out too long in extremely good grass to babysit others  

He was measured today 30th june 25 and stands at 151 to 152 on his withers and he is 155 on his hind quarters and he is only a 4yr old so should easily grow more 

He is 4yr old and has been fully dna tested as i was going to keep him entire but i had him cut 12 months ago 

Murphy as he is very affectionly known has ben with me for 2.5years and was bought directly of the breeder he is the sweetest cob i have ever owned and ive had a few he loves people more than horses and you can do absolutely anything with him he has not ben backed as i dont ride but it will be a very very easy job to do with him 

He is completely clean limbed with no vices 

I would seriously love to see this boy in the show ring next year and not just being my farm pet please no timewasters as a very very good home is foremost

If he doesnt sell i will have him produced next year as he is undoubtedly a real top contender in the ring

Tom is an 8 year old bay roan gelding, owned since a 2 year old. Clydesdale x Irish cob. (Bred in Ireland)

He has done a bit of everything and is happy to give anything a go. He is a lovely hack, snaffle mouthed and barefoot currently.

Tom is a versatile chap and is a yard favourite.

Tom has been used as a lead horse so would be great if accompanying children out hacking.

Tom has done some hunting and hound excercise and is a true gent on the field.

Tom has been to local shows, fun rides and swam in the sea. Tom has done a little jumping but it's not really his thing.

Tom has done a couple of dressage tests and does school nicely.

Tom is not fussed if he is not ridden daily and can be left with no issues.

I am reluctantly putting Tom for sale as I have started my own business and I cannot give him the time he deserves.

Tom can be strong on the ground (bolshy cob) so will require a knowledgeable handler.

Tom is not keen on being clipped but on occasions has let me clip him without sedation.

Full wardrobe available by negotiation.

absolutely beautiful 17hh pure Irish Draught (green book) 2017 bay mare. This girl has been nicely done, she’s hunted, done most riding club activities and jumps for fun.

She has three correct, balanced and beautiful paces on the flat, snaffle ride and will listen to your voice or aids.

Holly is the perfect allrounder for someone to start putting their stamp on and a real yard favourite. We have had Holly for a few months and brought her on slowly and correctly. I feel she is now ready to go out and see the world and start her competitive career.

We have done a bit of everything with her and she is a very willing mare showing a lot of potential. She is working beautifully in the school through all gaits, is naturally balanced and keeps a nice rhythm. She is jumping around a course of fences and has seen many combinations and fillers. She has masses of scope, loves jumping and is extremely brave. Holly is an absolute XC machine and will make someone a cracking hunter for the upcoming season. Jumps hedges ditches, gates, banks, rails etc.

She has been to a couple of training shows and has done farm rides, one of them being with my 12 year old son. Holly is an absolute star to hack out alone and in company. She has seen all types of traffic with us.

Holly is excellent to catch, turnout, groom, bath, stable and a lovely affectionate girl to have on the yard. She happily turns out alone or in company.

I feel there are so many disciplines this mare could do. British Eventing, BSJA, BD etc. She would also make an amazing Pony Club horse for a teenager.

Holly is obviously a young green horse who is now ready to further her education. She is a responsive forward thinking competitive type Mare who needs a competent and confident rider to carry on her education she would not be suitable for a novice or nervous rider.

She is a real star of the future and we would love to keep in touch

Please note Holly has recently flown through a vetting, she passed everything however she has a tiny sarcoid (like 1/3 the size of a 1 pence piece) so the people decided they didn’t want her. The sarcoid has been there since she was a yearling and has never changed! I have the full vetting which I’m happy to share. Also a photo of the sarcoid.

Great to hack, (will ride and lead), been out hunting alongside my children and loves farm rides.

Ideally looking for someone who wants a horse to enjoy hacking out with their children and to do the odd bit of showing. He is pleasure to take anywhere.
Homes will be vetted as this is such a hard decision, but I am struggling to find the time to give him the love and attention that this super kind horse deserves whilst concentrating on children and our business.
He needs to be someone’s No.1
