Genuine, Bold event prospect / All rounder


Ref #: 415071
  • Hunting schoolmistress
  • Brilliant hack alone and in company
  • Bold genuine jump and 3 flashy paces
£7,500 ONO
  • ISH / WB
  • Chestnut
  • Mare
  • 12 years
  • 16.2hh / 168cm
  • Hunting schoolmistress
  • Brilliant hack alone and in company
  • Bold genuine jump and 3 flashy paces

Tango is a beautiful 16.2hh, 12-year-old Irish Sport Horse x Warmblood mare, by Darco out of a Baloubet du Rouet mare. She is a kind, genuine mare with a lovely temperament and the sort that's increasingly hard to find.

She is an absolute pleasure to hack, Tango happily hacks alone or in company, will go first or last, is never strong or silly in open spaces, and has safely looked after complete novices out hacking. She's the type you can always rely on to be sensible.

In her previous home, Tango hunted regularly and was described as an absolute machine. She jumped everything put in front of her without getting strong, stood politely at meets, and was happy to sit anywhere in the field. She has plenty of blood and ability for those wanting fun days out hunting, while remaining sensible enough for someone simply wanting a safe, enjoyable ride.

Cross-country schooling has shown just how genuine she is. She is incredibly bold, happily jumping everything asked of her. She took a little encouragement the first time into the water, but this is improving with experience and is simply down to lack of mileage.

Showjumping, she is confidently popping round courses and has been to unaffiliated shows. She remains green for her age in this discipline, with her canter adjustability and steering still developing, but she is naturally careful, scopey and always wants to jump. Her attitude is second to none—even a friend who had never jumped before had a go, and Tango looked after them without taking offence, she goes on any stride and isnt spooky at any fence/filler.

On the flat, Tango has three balanced paces and works in a soft outline. Again, she is still green and would benefit from continued schooling, particularly in the canter, but she has an excellent attitude and is eager to learn. She has also been ridden by novices in the school at walk and trot, where she behaved impeccably.

With a little more education, Tango has all the attributes to make a fantastic grassroots eventer, Riding Club horse, hunter or quality all-rounder. Given another few months, she's the sort that will be flying around BE80/90 tracks with ease.

She is good to catch, shoe, clip, load and travel, and is easy to handle in every way. She's the type you can leave for a week, get straight back on and not worry.

This is a very sad sale through absolutely no fault of her own. Unfortunately, owning a mare has highlighted that our gelding is rather riggy, so we have made the difficult decision to find Tango the loving home she deserves.

Serious enquiries only for this kind genuine mare.


Neville: elite allrounder, dressage star, quiet and willing

  • Smashing blue roan colour and stunning, floaty paces
  • Experienced at local competitions, dressage, cross country
  • Mellow and unflappable character

Kippagh Choice, affectionately called ‘Neville’ by our girls, is a one-in-a-million find for a family with many riders, a riding club member looking for a capable, unflappable partner, or an amateur looking for a confidence-boosting, gentle allrounder.

He is a big-bodied, weight carrier standing at 16.1h with a little more growing to do. He is a stunning blue roan 4yo Irish Draught x Cob.

We have yet to find something he is afraid of! He enjoys hacking alone or with others, has no problem around lorries, machinery, cows, traffic, or busy arenas. He’s extremely brave and settled in new places and open fields.

He has been competing locally with us and loves it. His steady, comfy canter and adjustable stride is ideal for a nervous rider on course.

He has been dressage schooling and travels easily in the contact in a loose ring snaffle. He is not lazy or overly forward, he stays right under the leg, even with a petite 5’ girl.

With his floaty, suspended movement and blue roan colour, we think he’d make a fabulous horse for showing hunter classes or dressage competitions

He has been cross country schooling and enjoys it very much. We believe he’d make a great hunt horse with his mellow personality and great attitude for water, ditches, coffins, etc.

He is very easy to catch, load, tie, plait, bathe, shoe, etc. He is notoriously friendly and gentle, our girls adore his willing and sweet personality. He gets along well with all other horses and has no vices.

He is open to any vetting

Price includes delivery to UK, exchange if you are not happy


Huge, HW gelding with 10'' bone, floating movement and huge jump!

  • Heavyweight Hunter

Smokey Black, serious heavyweight gelding. 17/17.1hh now, but has not got a high wither and feels about 18hh when you're close to him.

This is one serious powerhouse of a Viking warrior's war horse! Looks like Thor should be riding him into Valhalla.

Floats like a butterfly with movement that makes you think he couldn’t possibly have the 10’’ of clean bone that he has. We jumped him for the first time today, and he pops 1.30 without having to make the slightest effort.

He is bold, brave, athletic, smooth-moving, handsome, and totally clean-limbed.

Raven’s father is the famous C1 Irish Draught stallion Corrindon Dancer, who won the Royal Dublin Show. I bred his mother, and she is ISH (Ballinvella) x Czech WB (Falko). Dam is the maternal half-sister to the dam of the multiple winning HW buckskin stallion Hallslake Nimrod (look him up), whom I also bred. The Ballinvella TB in the back breeding has given Raven athleticism and refinement, which, in such a huge and heavy horse, is just mind-blowing when you see him move. Genetically, I believe Raven is technically a Smoky Black as his mother is buckskin, so he has some 'dun' markings on his flank, but otherwise, when not sun bleached, he's very black.

Currently 4 years old and a raw blank canvas, having been with us from a foal. We haven’t ever even put a bridle on this boy yet. We have given him plenty of time to fill up his big frame, and mature. He has had his hooves looked after, been regularly wormed, and come in the barn for winters and lived out all summer in a herd. He is not clingy, is happy to be caught and moved away from friends, and stabled or transported without insecurity. He loads well in a trailer or lorry as he has been moved to different grazing between seasons. He can be rugged or left naked. He has no ailments or allergies and is vice-free, totally clean-limbed and straight-moving. He is kind, clever, and easy-going, naturally bold, and will be easy to break in.

What is his job going to be, and where would you find another one??

War Horse? Hunter? Show Horse? Dressage? Large person eventer? Battle reenactment horse? Jousting? Police horse? He genuinely could be absolutely anything.

We usually start our own horses undersaddle, but sometimes we find that buyers are looking to start from the begining themselves, so we are offering Raven raw initially, but we are also happy to get him backed for his purchasers if it is desired. If he is not sold during July, we will get him going, with a view to doing an hour or two of trail hunting over our fabulous, rugged terrain of Exmoor by Autumn. I honestly think he will be an absolute pleasure to get going and will be one hugely impressive horse under saddle.

Anyone looking for a horse that looks like a battering ram but moves like a show pony…. Give me a shout!

We are based near Lynton/Lynmouth on Exmoor, Devon/Somerset borders, and can help with delivery.

Romeo – The Ultimate Confidence Giver

15hh 10-Year-Old Cob Gelding

Romeo is an exceptional 15hh, 10-year-old Cob gelding who offers the rare combination of safety, strength, experience and a heart of gold. He is kind, bold, dependable and a genuine weight carrier, making him suitable for a wide range of riders—from complete beginners, nervous adults and children, RDA riders, those with additional learning needs, right through to more experienced riders looking for a calm, reliable partner.

Romeo is beautifully put together and truly is a horse who has been there, done that. Calm, considerate and always willing to please, he is the definition of safe and steady. He has far more “whoa” than “go” for less experienced riders, yet for a capable rider he has another gear when asked. His adaptability allows him to happily carry a complete novice one day and then enjoy a more forward ride with an experienced rider the next.

The Ultimate All-Rounder

Romeo has spent the last 12 months working in a professional riding school, where he has excelled with every type of rider, from complete beginners to advanced riders, both under saddle and during stable management sessions.

He has extensive experience in private and group flatwork lessons and regularly takes part in our in-house showjumping and cross-country competitions. Romeo absolutely loves to jump and is confident over coloured and rustic fences, showing a careful, honest and bold technique. Prior to joining us, he competed successfully at low level in showjumping, cross-country, working hunter, one-day events and has also enjoyed hunting.

Hacking is one of Romeo’s greatest strengths. He will happily hack alone or in company and has been exposed to some of the heaviest traffic imaginable, including double-decker buses, articulated lorries, tractors and all types of farm machinery. Nothing fazes him. He remains calm and relaxed in every environment and never becomes strong or silly. He can gallop across open fields with loose horses running alongside him before immediately coming back to walk on a long rein or standing quietly while other horses continue galloping around him. He is genuinely one of the most sensible horses you could wish to ride and is never sharp, spooky or silly.

During his time at the riding school, Romeo has been nothing short of outstanding. He is incredibly forgiving when riders lose their balance, lose a stirrup or make a mistake into a fence. He always looks after his rider and never takes advantage. His substantial build, combined with his calm temperament, sure-footedness and kind nature, gives nervous riders enormous confidence. He will stand patiently at the mounting block for as long as required without moving a foot.

I can honestly say Romeo has no quirks, vices or unpleasant traits.

Although perfectly happy to amble along at a quiet pace, Romeo is responsive to the leg and offers three lovely, balanced paces. For a more experienced rider he will happily work into a soft outline while remaining relaxed and obedient. He has never bucked, reared, bolted, kicked or bitten. He is ridden in a simple snaffle at all times with no gadgets whatsoever.

Outstanding Manners

Romeo has impeccable manners both in and out of the stable. He will happily stand for hours to be groomed and fussed over, with or without a headcollar. He is polite, affectionate and incredibly easy to handle.

He is equally happy living in or out and settles well whether stabled individually or turned out in a mixed herd, he is currently in a mixed herd and solo field in between lessons.

Romeo has an excellent health history and has never suffered from laminitis, sweet itch, sarcoids or any significant lumps, bumps or soundness issues.

He is currently barefoot with strong, healthy feet but is equally happy to be shod if preferred. He is excellent to catch, clip, bath, load, travel, shoe, and is a pleasure for the farrier, vet and dentist.

He is incredibly low maintenance and requires no daily work. He can enjoy weeks or even months off before returning to work exactly the same horse. He maintains his condition well on a simple diet and is exceptionally easy to manage in every respect.

Romeo has also recently passed our annual Riding School Licence Inspection, the equivalent of a Stage 2 veterinary inspection.

A Horse You’ll Struggle to Replace

Romeo is a genuinely rare horse. Whether you’re looking for a confidence giver, a safe hacking companion, a family horse, an RDA-type horse, a riding club horse or simply an honest all-rounder to enjoy, he ticks every box.

He is a genuine schoolmaster who gives his rider confidence every time they sit in the saddle and will undoubtedly provide his next owner with many years of enjoyment.

This is a heartbreaking sale. As part of our regular riding school stock rotation, we give our horses the opportunity to move on to loving private homes every few years so they can enjoy one-to-one attention and a more varied lifestyle. Romeo has been an exceptional member of our team and now deserves a wonderful forever home. Sold on behalf of a working livery.

We have several horses and ponies available.

If you are genuinely interested, please call or message via WhatsApp. Text messages and emails may not receive an immediate response.

  • Well hunted with the Kimblewick
  • Sale due to owners retirement
  • Loves to jump

(The cob formerly known as Clarence) super fun all rounder / hunting cob who is sadly offered for sale due to owner’s retirement. Jimmy was brought over from Ireland by us as a 4 year old, he was then sold to his current owners who have had him ever since. They are both now in their 80’s and hanging up their riding boots so he has returned to find his new hopefully forever home.

Jimmy has been a fun all rounder in his current home, his owners were regular subscribers with the Fitzwilliam hunt and he’s been well hunted by the whole family. He’s a cracking cob to hunt, stands quietly when asked, excellent at meets and happy to pop all hunt jumps. He absolutely loves the job and is safe but keen, he is always a little strong on his first canter out in the open but then becomes very easy. Adult daughter has intermittently taken him out both SJ and XC schooling, he enjoys his jumping and could go on to do all RC activities. Jimmy has mainly hacked and hunted with his owners so his flat work needs a little polishing off to do a dressage test, however, he is obedient and off the aids in the school when asked.

Out hacking he’s super, good both alone and in company and has been great in fairly busy traffic. He’s forward thinking but not really going anywhere with it and for this reason he’s not for a wobbly novice.

He’s very easy to have on the yard, happy to live in or out and good to box, shoe, clip etc. he’s up to date with everything and ready to go and have some fun. He has a couple of little handling quirks, can be a bit rude to lead in and out the field and needs someone horse savvy but this has been managed and not a problem with elderly owners. He’s a bit unsettled here atm with us and needs to find an understanding private home asap as hasn’t taken the change very well and likes to know his people! That being said he’s settling back in to his routine here quite quickly and we have him sussed handling wise.

Best home wanted who will drop old owners the odd message and let them know how he is.

Seen at livery.

Lovely cob who will make someone a really fun all rounder/ hack/ possible hunter.

Not a sluggy dead cob! Toto is a fun forwards thinking boy with a nice mouth and way of going, he would be a lot of fun to take to local unaff dressage, SJ, XC etc. he rides very sweetly on the flat and works in a natural shape, he’s nicely off the aids but not sharp or silly with it. He would definitely suit a keen middle aged RC lady who wants something that feels like it has a bit of engine without going anywhere. He’s very quiet out hacking both alone and in company and excellent in traffic, has been up to the pub with us, happy to stand patiently, steal a chip / half a pint etc. he’s good in open spaces and pulls up when asked.

We have taken him XC schooling and he was genuine and brave, jumped everything asked of him and was a lot of fun. He’s also jumping round a small course of coloured fences very happily but will trot down to a fence if you don’t want full speed ahead! We have taken him on a sponsored ride with rusty, inexperienced rider and he behaved brilliantly and gave her loads of confidence jumping and picked her back up when she nearly wobbled off! He’s got plenty of jump to go and do everything at local level well and will give someone an awful lot of fun. To jump in the arena Toto is a little greener but still very genuine, he’s happy to give everything a go. He just needs a few more miles on. The clock as last home only really hacked him.

Toto is a lovely chap to handle, box, catch, shoe, clip etc. he loves fuss and attention, he’s got very good manners and likes people.

Fun all rounder who will do all PC/ RC activities and enjoys her jumping, she will go on to make a super all rounder or fun hunter.

Gracie works sweetly in the school and although not built for dressage tries her best to please and is obedient to ride, she is nicely forward thinking and not strong. Grace really enjoys her jumping and will pop round a course of 70/80 SJ fences. She’s adores XC and is brave and bold, happy over all solid fences, ditches, water etc. very ,much point and shoot. Gracie would we think be a lot of fun to take out hunting as she has a sensible brain and happily grows another leg to get herself out of trouble!

Grace loves her hacking both alone and in company. She is happy to go first or last and is good in traffic.

Grace came to us with a mounting issue, we have done a lot of ground work with her and now have her sussed. She is now easy to get on and off in all situations at home and when away but any potential owners will need to be horse savvy, be prepared and happy to be shown how we have dealt with her. With continuation of our work she won’t be an issue but is a bit of a bossy mare in this respect and will try her luck from time to time so won’t suit a novice owner. She’s a real character to have on the yard, but never bites/kicks etc, I wouldn’t call her very mareish, easy in the field with others, good to catch, box, shoe etc just needs reminding of her manners from time to time!

Very handsome and kind 6yo gelding, approx 15.3hh.

Moves well, has a great attitude to work and has been learning to jump, showing himself to be very willing.

He was trained for polo for a while but wasn't going to be a champion, so he was bought as a hack by his current owner, who as time passed realised he just didn't have the time to come and ride him (owner lives in London) so he sent him to us in April for further schooling and sale.

This is a lovely uncomplicated horse who is learning quickly and carries himself nicely.

He is a TB by Bated Breath and out of Commence - eligible all ROR. Registered name "Justwatchmestrugle"

  • Loving 5 Star Home Awaits

  • Quiet Private Yard with dedicated owner

I'm searching for a kind, genuine horse to become part of the family. This is a long-term, forever home on a peaceful private yard where every horse is treated as an individual, pampered endlessly, and loved like a best friend.

With my new equine partner I'd love to spend time out hacking, doing the occasional fun ride, an annual beach trip, schooling at home up to Novice level, and some low level dressage shows. I'm looking for a family horse rather than a competition type that needs daily riding.

Said horse needs to be 16-17hh and can be of any age as attitude and temperament are of most importance. I would consider slightly smaller if a smart cob type. The main priority is that my new horse is super safe and non spooky to hack alone and in company, not silly in groups and rock solid in traffic. As long as nice basic paces are there I am happy to put in the work on the flat. Horse must be a quiet personality that enjoys a peaceful home not the hustle and bustle of a busy livery yard. I have a mini bestie here waiting to meet him new mate!

I have a mid teen budget for the perfect horse and a stable ready and waiting. I have a great team of professionals around me and I would be delighted to keep in contact. I am not a overly confident rider (or person!) but I can ensure you I will provide a knowledgeable and experienced home for a genuine horse and I can of course supply references.

‘Ammanvalley Aranck’ (Ava)

16hh 7yo stunning Appaloosa mare very sadly for sale due to owners circumstances. She has been in the same home since a foal so this is a heartbreaking decision, please no time wasters or joy riders.

Ava is a beautiful American bred Appaloosa, out of Rowberton Solitaire (Appy x TB) and by the beautiful stallion Ammanvalley Dark Star.

She was backed at 5 to let her mature properly and in the last 2 years she has been showing, showjumping, cross country schooling, hacking and did a days hunting at the end of last season, stood at the meet and jumped ditches and rails despite never seeing hounds beforehand.

Currently kept in a same sex herd and very easy to do and keep, such a people person. Lives out in the summer, in at night in the winter, she really hates being out in the rain and stands at the gate waiting to be rescued!

She is not a novice ride, she is sensitive and wants a quiet rider but once you get the hang of her she goes beautifully and really tries for you. Always snaffle mouthed.

Her jump is phenomenal, we have competed her up 80cm but there is so much more jump in there. She would be extremely exciting and unique to see on the showjumping circuit.

She would be very successful to show as she is so well marked and so eye catching across a ring. She has been to 2 showing shows so far and the judges loved her.

She is registered with the APHC UK.

In my dream world, someone would buy her and keep her with me but I know that isn’t realistic 😢 she has been a pleasure to back, ride and compete for her owner for the last 2 years and I really think a lot of her.

She is up to date with vaccs and teeth, worm counted and wormed accordingly regularly.

Good to shoe, catch, load, we have clipped her and as long as you reassure her she is fine.

KMS Rooney ( Eldorado) X Quite Easy

Cali has had a correct start to his education.

He has not been rushed and has been given time to mature.

Has recently been to his first few arena hires. He is happily popping a small course of fences and fillers.

His flatwork has all the correct foundations. He moves beautifully, incredibly light on his feet. He is naturally very balanced. I can see him doing a beautiful test.

Cali hacks well both alone and in company. He has hacked through fields, streams, bridleways. He has been introduced to small logs/ tyres.

Good for the farrier (currently barefoot), catch etc. Lovely temperament.

Ridden and handled by petite 5ft1 lady.

He is a super young horse who can go in any direction.

Hey Jack

16hh 10 year old gelding.

Very well used and suited to inexperienced riders!

Jack has hunted, hunter trialled, taken part in riding club activities and gone on beach rides.

He is an easy going, relaxed and friendly character.

He is very brave and nothing phases him. Quiet to hack out and he is quiet in traffic.

A perfect allrounder gelding who will take care of his rider.

He has excellent stable manners and is a wonderful boy to have in any yard.
