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

MR HIGGINS - Approx 15.3/16hh, 6yrs old full breeding recorded. Irish Draught. Sire Clooneen Sea King.

Lovejoy HOYS champion cob is by the same sire.

Mr Higgins is the sweetest boy, very quiet to ride and super genuine mannerly type!

He has been out to numerous shows in the show ring and has already started a successful showing career, he has also competed in training shows.

He has hunted numerous times and proved to be mannerly, standing when asked and doesn't mind where he is in the field….he hunts in the middle, up front or at the back. Snaffle mouth for everything.

He has three balanced uphill paces and works in a lovely frame in a consistent outline .

He is proving brave and honest over a fence with plenty of ability.

He hacks alone and in company and is use to lots of dogs running around him in and out the bushes and he’s totally unphased. He is good with farm machinery and traffic.

A beautiful stamp of a horse with no lumps, bumps or blemishes and straight moving.

Mr Higgins is with us on sales livery through no fault of his own. His owners are showing producers and they have done such a fantastic job producing this very special horse, who is going to make someone very happy.

Broodmare

100% in all traffic, safe and sensible to ride, has not done dressage or jumping with me purely down to lack of transport but would happily do these. Will ride first or last. She will look for confidence from her rider if she is unsure.

Has shown in hand locally and her behaviour is impeccable, she would easily be able to contest the affiliated in hand and ridden classes but sadly as mentioned above we have not been able to peruse these due to lack of transport.

She has clean limbs and correct true to type conformation and would also be an asset to any stud as a broodmare - has had a couple of foals previously and has been a fantastic mum.

100% on the ground to handle, she is more like a oversize dog! Good to bath (not too keen on her legs) shoe, vet, teeth, load etc!

Lucy is only available to the very best of homes as this is not a decision that has been taken lightly and is a heartbreaking sale due to my circumstances, she has been in the same home for 5 years and it took me years to find her.

Please note she is currently in her winter woolies and lives out 24/7.
Videos available.

10 year old 16.1 gelding for sale. Max is an Irish sports cob who was imported from Ireland 5 years ago to be a mother daughter share, however my daughter is now giving up and he his too good to just be a happy hacker with me.

In the 5 years that we have owned Max he has been to regular clinics, fun rides, camps, hunting, dressage and county shows regularly coming home with rosettes. He hacks out alone and in company, where he is happy to be first or last.

Jumping is one of his favourite things, he will jump anything and gives his rider lots of confidence. He is currently jumping at 80cm but has scope to go bigger.

We regularly refer to Max as a bit of a turbo cob as he enjoys his work and is very much more go than woah therefore not for a novice/nervous rider. He does best when he has a job and would turn his hoof to anything. A pony club/hunting/competition home would be his idea of heaven.

Easy to clip, shoe, load, travel etc.

Will live out 24/7 but will also stable. Has lived with mares and geldings always getting on with everyone.

Max is up to date with his vaccinations, teeth and physio.

£15,000 with full tack and wardrobe. Which would include a Kent &Masters dressage and GP saddle, his bridles and rugs.

Open to vetting and instructors. Plenty of pictures and videos on request.

Nautrup’s Amaze Malou - Striking 8yrs old 15hh traditional blagdon cob

If you are looking for something special “Maisie” is the one for you. Maisie has a big easy stride and is very light on her feet. Plenty of bone and a ‘real look at me presence’ when she enters the ring.

From what we can tell Maisie was broken at 3 in Denmark and then had a foal. Imported after her foal and went to an older lady who we believe hacked her a bit before becoming ill.

Since being with me she has been to 2 shows, which we believe are her first shows ever, and she has come on each time out. Getting good comments from the judges at her showing show and coming 2nd in her second ever dressage test.

Maisie is not suitable for a novice rider as she is forward going and still needs educating due to being still green but a really exciting prospect for the showing season next year.

Good correct conformation and a lovely attitude. For sale due to not being right for current very novice riders.

Maisie is good to hack, shoe, catch etc… currently barefoot and coping well.

Comes with tack and rugs!

  • Multi-Championship Winner - Exceptional Inhand CV
  • Beautiful Type - Correct Conformation - Kind & Mannerly
Rodney is a top-class, minimally marked native coloured stallion, rising five years old and standing at approximately 14.1hh. A stallion with tremendous bone, depth and true substance, combined with straight, correct movement and undeniable presence.

Despite being every inch the manly stallion, he is exceptionally mannerly and level-headed — you genuinely wouldn’t know he is entire. He has a laid-back outlook without ever being a plod; genuine, trainable and straightforward to work with.

Outstanding In-Hand Show Record - Lightly but very successfully shown as a yearling and three-year-old in youngstock classes, carefully campaigned and never over-produced. He has never been placed outside the top two, consistently Highest Placed Native / Hairy, including at:

Derbyshire Festival
Royal Windsor
CHAPS Championships
BSPA Championships
Equifest
Royal Three Counties
Great Yorkshire
Newark & Notts County
Staffordshire County
Royal Norfolk
Midlands Youngstock Show

Multiple Championships and Supremes to his name, building an exceptional CV from limited outings.


Rodney was backed at the beginning of 2025 and produced slowly and correctly with longevity firmly in mind. Last season’s aim was purely to secure grading credentials, which he achieved with ease:

-CHAPS UK Graded (In-Hand & Ridden)

-BSPA Graded (In-Hand & Ridden)

-Passed two 5-stage vettings

-PSSM1 Negative

-Full recorded breeding in his CHAPS passport

He is now established under saddle and ready to progress into novice ridden classes as a rising five-year-old, having been thoughtfully produced and never rushed. He absolutely loves to hack out, works nicely in the ménage and has attended several arena hires under-saddle.

Rodney has been in the same home since a foal. H is up to date with vaccinations, physio, dentist and farrier. He is Clean-limbed, no vices and is easy to handle and manage.

Ponies of this calibre very rarely come onto the open market.

Offered only due to complete lack of time. He is far too good to stand idle and will only be sold to a knowledgeable 10* home where his potential can be fully realised. Videos available upon request.

Can be viewed with Lucy Glover. Based in Nottinghamshire. Absolutely NO timewasters, picture or video collectors.

Serious enquiries only.

Duchess is a serious stamp, that would excel as a show hunter, hunter or dressage horse.

Duchess is nicely bred, she is an Irish sports horse by ID stallion Western Blues out of an irish sports horse mare by Dock Leaf, she only has a small amount of TB blood, and to look at she looks like a full ID with good conformation and bone.

Duchess has previously been hunting in Ireland, once imported to the UK she has been in an amateur home enjoying hacking schoolwork, and riding club activities.

On the flat Duchess works in a beautiful outline showing off her stamp and presence. She is currently working at prelim/novice level with all the ability and attitude to go up the levels. She has competed at a training show with us, she was well behaved and judges commented on her correct way of going and ability.

Duchess hasn’t done an excessive amount of jumping due to her previous home not being jumpers. She has been around courses here of 70/80cm always progressing well and eager to please. She would be a super allrounder for someone wanting to have fun.

Duchess is good to hack alone and in company, and would certainly enjoy being back out on the hunt field, and recently did some fun rides. She is mannerly and does not get hot up in open spaces. Good in traffic, and is a reliable sort out hacking.

Duchess is not marish, she is good in the stable. She is good to catch, load, shoe, clip etc. She is a very easy horse to deal with and a pleasure to have on the yard.

For sale on behalf of a client, a sad sale with a genuine reason. Good home is priority.
