Rising 5yo irish gelding (2021) by Cardento royale x ID mare .. sire side recorded. Full up 15.2 .. lots of substance and bone but full of quality and very light on his feet. Super step and jump. Could be produced to do any job. Potential int worker/show cob.

He has come direct from the breeder and been in a herd until a month ago so was totally unhandled. Now ties up,leads ,picks up feet , has the tack on , has done plenty of long reining in the arena and up the road and has been sat on twice and ridden around the yard.

Project for someone capable and experienced to bring on over the winter.
Could make a very good horse and will have plenty of ability.

£5500 priced to sell we have far to many in and are desperately lacking space and time.This price is for this week only or he will come back in to work and be ridden away.

Striking Welsh D Mare

  • Ready for someone to put their own stamp on
  • Striking colour

Belle is a rising 5 Welsh Section D
Sired by Menai Cardi Llywnd

Belle is standing 14.3 but still bum high she should easily make 15hh once finished. Belle was very lightly broken as a 3 year old and turned away until this spring when she was coming 4.

During which she has done a few local farm rides, including Somerford where we ended up going alone so I had no school master for her, to which she behaved brilliantly and popped everything asked.

In September this year she headed down south to do the badminton fun ride where we stabled away from home for the weekend and met up with friends as well and she was absolutely foot perfect.

Belle has 3 lovely paces but school’s much better away from home than at home - I’ve no idea why!

She did a local show at our riding club this year where she picked up 2nd in the M and M and if I’m really biased she should have won as the winner picked the wrong leg!!

She’s a sensitive soul and would benefit from someone who can give her lots of 1-1. She hacks out alone or in company. She is always fine in traffic however hasn’t seen awfully busy roads as we are in a quiet area but have plenty of farm machinery knocking about.

Belle is turned out in a group, until she gets to know you she can be a sensitive soul where catching is considered however this has gotten better and better, her only other fault is that she can now and again have ‘d**khead’ day as I call it where about once a month everything is spook worthy - but this just adds to the Welsh dragon

Belle is still very very green as we really have done the bare minimum while she’s spent her time growing up. Day to day all she does is hack so when I do decide to do farm rides and fun rides she really has been thrown in the deep end. She has absolutely not been rushed in anyway so still so much for her to learn

She is really ready for someone to put their own stamp on.

She travels in a trailer but arrived to me on a box - good to clip (twitched for ears only). Good to shoe. Vaccinated up to date.

I did buy he as a rising 3 year old to sell on eventually but I’ve consistently put it off. But we have a wedding coming up this year with funds needed and a child that takes all my time showing now so less time to produce her.

He is very straightforward to jump, taking you to a fence in a calm, genuine manner, and really tries for his rider. Ralph will make a beautiful allrounder for someone wanting a quality horse to enjoy and progress with.

Ready to go out and about

He also enjoys hacking, happy to go alone or in company, and is equally content in front or behind with no preference.

He does have some previous medical history, which has been fully resolved and he has been given the all-clear with no further treatment required. This is heavily reflected in his price.

Up to date with everything- Dentist Farrier,Physio.

Not suitable for a complete novice he would like a quiet, sympathetic rider but he will repay you tenfold with his genuine, honest nature. Ralph is now looking for his best friend to continue his journey.

CODEY 16.2hh Full Irish Draught By Luke SkyWalker Grey Gelding – 6 Years Old

An absolute gentleman and true all-rounder, this stunning 6-year-old full Irish Draught gelding is beautifully put together, boasting lovely conformation and a huge, expressive step for a Draught. He’s a real head-turner with presence and quality.

Schooling very well on the flat, he shows the talent and movement to go far in dressage or showing. Over fences, he’s brave, honest, and straightforward — has schooled show jumps and arena eventing fences with ease. Point and go type: you kick, he goes. Always careful, never silly. He has competed at local hunter trials where he just skipped round happily behind.

Out hunting, he’s an absolute dream. Hunted in Ireland and the UK with both foxhounds and bloodhounds — impeccably mannered, sensible, and reliable. Equally happy leading, following, or holding the gate. A novice could safely ride him in the field, yet he’s bold enough to take on the bigger country. Would make a brilliant hunt service horse. Doesn’t get bothered by other horses — can lead or be led over fences.

He’s just one in a million — genuine, versatile, and easy in every way. Everything we’ve asked of him, he’s taken in his stride. Good enough to produce further in any sphere, but kind and uncomplicated enough to be enjoyed by anyone.

If you’re looking for a quality Irish Draught with manners, movement, and a heart of gold — this boy is the real deal.

16hh | 2020 Irish Cob Gelding

Tom is looking for a new home through absolutely no fault of his own. He was bought in June (with a clean 5 stage vetting). Unfortunately nerves have got the best of current owner.

He’s a sweet, genuine boy who naturally takes his confidence from his rider. He needs someone who is carefree and happy to kick on, give him guidance.

Tom originally came over from Ireland and has been well handled. On the ground he is a joy — friendly, polite, loves attention, and will stand all day to be groomed or fussed. Good to load, catch and bath.

Under saddle, Tom shows all the promises to be a fantastic all rounder, whether you want a dressage or show partner or a horse to go have fun on and go hunting! He has correct flashy paces. He has lovely movement and is keen to learn.

He’s ridden in a snaffle and has a naturally willing attitude, he has it all there just now needs to go out and show off!

He hacks alone and in company, has seen all sorts of traffic, and is sensible in open spaces.

He hasn’t jumped since being purchased, but previously enjoyed it and was bold and honest when he went XC schooling before his sale.

Tom will make someone a really rewarding partner — he’s safe, sweet, and tries his best, but he’s young and needs a confident rider who can support him and help him continue developing.

Not suitable for complete novices owing to age.
Lots of videos available on request.

  • Good temperment
  • Happy to hack
  • Good in traffic

We are a small RDA centre with a big heart looking for multiple types and sizes of horses from 13.2 – 16.3hh ride and/or drive. We are based South West London and hack out in one of London's royal parks.

Temperament is very important and must be good to handle by multiple people. We offer our horses a variety in their life, mostly involving hacking and fun days out. We don’t have an arena onsite so ability to hack is a must. We offer herd turnout, with work rotation so horses get a large amount of rest days.

Welfare and care are our upmost priority, 5* home waiting with lots of love and care.
