Colour Impact aka Joey cob
Available to the very best of homes, reluctant sale through no fault of his own , it is time someone else has the pleasure he has given me.
158cm, 14 yr old, gelding. Based in Pembrokeshire, West Wales.

Joey needs no introduction, he's been there and done it ,successfully over the country as a maxi cob, and a native coloured. Qualified HOYS & Ri, London International. Competed at dressage ,novice scoring in the 70% .

Now looking for a home where he can have some fun as an all-rounder, hacking , pleasure rides , hunting , fun stuff! He doesn't want to be schooled day in ( he is sick of it) ,day out going around in circles. He loves hacking , and going out on a show day !

He is a gentleman to ride , polite and light. Not a novice ride as he is forward , but the brakes equally work. He is nicely schooled , will hack out alone and in company. Doesn't get strong in an open space.

He is good to catch , to shoe, bath , stands quietly while you get on, loads and travels on a trailer, 3.5 tonne lorry or a 7.5 tonne lorry no bother. Will stand eating his net happily at venues.

He doesn't love being clipped , but this can be done with no gadgets or sedation, as I have done on my own for the last 4 years.

He is up to date with farrier , worming and vaccinations

Real head turner. Stunning looking boy needs an experienced rider to further his education.

Showing an aptitude for Hunting and would make a striking show hunter.

I love this horse to bits but have found myself over horsed having previously ridden a finer/small type

He thrives on good ad lib hay with a little hard feed and grass. A real good doer :)

Excellent limbs and feet.

Regularly received maintenance dental & physio appointments to keep him in top condition.

Twix - approx 15.2, 6 year old Irish cob mare.

Super allrounder type that’ll go on to many jobs.

Good to hack, goes alone or in company, enjoys boxing up to go for a hack and pop a log in the woods. Good around the farm machinery here and not been bothered in any of the traffic we’ve met.

Works away happily in the field or the arena, she has the basics in the arena and is a smart little cob that would pop off and do a little dressage test with some more work on the schooling.

She has a super jump and is very brave, XC schooled with us and didn’t say no to anything.

Before coming over Twix has mainly hacked/done a little hunting/fun rides/xc. Schooling is what she’s done the least of so she’s green on the flat but a super fast learner and tries very hard to please.

Passed a 5 stage vetting before import and comes with the certificate. Open to further vetting if required.

A solid cob with nice conformation and good feet. Shod all round currently but could easily go barefoot. No lumps/bumps/scars.

Good to catch, load, travel, tack up, wash off.

Meet Robby – The Ultimate Schoolmaster & Confidence Giver

Robby is a lovely 17-year-young, 16.2hh Maxi Cob gelding looking for a kind and knowledgeable home where he can enjoy happy hacking, hunting and fun days out.

A genuine schoolmaster and nanny horse, Robby has taught countless riders over the years. He is a real confidence giver and an easy, enjoyable ride. Anyone can hack him out and he has safely introduced many people to riding and hunting. He loves beach rides, pub rides, and a day out with the hounds, and has given many riders their first enjoyable days hunting.

He does require a little management once a year to keep him comfortable. X-rays have shown slight navicular changes in his near fore. His coffin joint has been injected and he wears pads in front. He is currently sound, happy and still enjoying his job, with no reason he couldn’t do a few more seasons.

Please note: Robby will not pass a full vetting, so please don’t enquire if this is essential. However, he passes the veterinary inspection every year for my riding school licence and continues to work happily.

Important:
• No time wasters
• No loans or payment plans
• Not for someone wanting to jump grassroots
• No one wanting to bring trainers – he is not going to a schooling home

Normal, genuine homes only please.

Transport can be arranged and part exchange may be considered. Priced realistically for a quick, straightforward sale, but he will not be given away.

Reason for sale: The hirelings weren’t busy enough this season so I’m rethinking my career and moving some of my older horses on to loving, knowledgeable homes.

  • Irish
  • Liver chestnut
  • Mare
  • 7 years
  • 16.3 hands
  • Nicely Schooled and a very good mover
  • Forward going type and loves to jump
  • Very brave and scopey over a fence
16.3hh, 7yo, maxi cob mare (Non-Marish). A genuine, quality sort that is hard to find, She has the presence and jump to stand out anywhere.

Under saddle she’s snaffle mouthed and done a little of everything. She is a forward going type and loves to jump (never gets strong or silly). Very brave and scopey over a fence and never says no.

Nicely Schooled and a very good mover will do well in the ring or equally would suit competent amateur who wants a competitive allrounder. She has been to multiple shows including stay away shows at Arena UK where she was a firm crowd favourite producing clears in the BN classes.

She’s good to hack alone and in company in the heaviest of traffic and is brilliant in open spaces.

No vices but not suitable for nervous riders as still only young and sensitive although she is very well behaved and very pleasant to deal with in all ways. Is sedated to clip.

There is not enough words to do this horse justice she is adored by everyone that meets her and deserves to find her forever home.

Will only be sold to a suitable 5* home. Please message for further information, photos and videos.
