Picasso is a striking 15.2hh 6yr reg Leopard Spot Appaloosa gelding.

What an eye catching chap he is. Really kind person to handle and do.

He has 3 lovely paces and would be outstanding in the show ring.

We have schooled him XC and SJ. He has an impressive jump.

Just started competing SJ and giving everything a go.

He hacks alone and in company and is good in open spaces.

He is green schooling/ not yet consistent in the contact but obviously he is only young so will need bringing along. Starting hold himself in a frame.

He has been foot perfect here a real pleasure to train and work with. He hadn’t actually been ridden a lot in that period even though backed at 4years old. Has glowing references from when he was broken in.

He is up to date with teeth (recently had wolf teeth removed), physio, vaccinated.

He has come to us and then we found out he had a colourful past. Therefore, he won’t be sold to a novice rider or child. Happy to discuss with serious people.

Expert is a true gentleman under saddle and on the ground.

He has a very wise head for 5, and certainly a horse that will go far.

He gives you an incredible feel on the flat, and over jumps.

Expert has been out XC schooling, training shows and forest rides. He is now ready to find his new home where he can go and fulfill his potential.

He has all the attributes and paces to go far in the dressage world, but is equally a horse who looks for the flags and the jumps! The jumps being too big will never be a problem for him! Not phased by ditches, hedges, rails, steps, water, anything!

He hacks alone or in company, used to all heavy traffic. Hacks on the buckle, in walk, trot and canter! Not the spooky type.

Great to load, shoe, turn in and out ect.

Seriously inquiries only! He is still 5 so still very green, but is a horse that will certainly go far.

Easy enough for an amateur, good enough for a professional.

No splits, lumps, bumps, scars. Very cleaned boned.

He has competed at unaffiliated SJ,Dressage events and clinics in the last year with his owner.

He was hunted in Ireland and proved mannerly.

He moves very well and has an honest jump.

Hacks alone and in company.

Unfortunately his owner fell off a mounting block and gave him a fright.Therefore, we have been working to get him relaxed.

We mount him from a leg up no problem. He is mounting from a moveable block. Not yet a solid one.This will still need working on.

He will shortly commence British showjumping with us.

He has been as good as gold under saddle but will not be sold to novices or children.He is a big substantial horse.

Otto is an incredibly kind young man who is always willing to please. I’ve owned him since a yearling and has been started slowly due to his size.

He has been brought up on a farm around machinery, dogs and children.. very little bothers him. He is lovely with other horses in a mixed herd.

He has done lots of hacking, trail hunting, arena hires and clinics. He enjoys jumping, but is still a bit weak due to his age and size.

He would suit someone looking for a forever friend to have fun on! Or someone looking for a big horse to take out trail hunting.

  • 16.2hh 10yo Mare by Wish Upon A Star
  • Lovely Allrounder with Dressage Talent
This elegant mare has previously competed in dressage and showjumped up to 1.10m, including a successful trip to the Sunshine Tour.

While she’s shown plenty of scope and ability over fences in the past, she has recently lost a bit of confidence in her jumping. Because of this, I feel she would be happiest for now in a home focused more on flatwork, dressage, hacking, fun rides, and light allrounder activities.

That said, with time, patience, and the right rider, there’s no doubt she could regain her confidence – she has all the potential to be a fantastic jumper again. She’s an intelligent and genuine mare who wants to please and thrives with a quiet, confident rider.

She is well-schooled on the flat with three expressive paces, making her a joy to ride in the arena. She hacks out happily alone or in company, is good to load, catch, shoe.

Up to date with vaccinations, teeth, physio, etc.

She wouldn’t suit a complete novice, but would be ideal for a confident teen or adult amateur looking for a quality, fun, and rewarding partner to enjoy a variety of low-pressure activities with.

Bambi

Due to her current owner going travelling, Bambi is looking for a five star home where she can continue to have fun.

She would make an ideal mother/daughter share whilst still having the talent and scope to be competitive if required.

She is 6 years old, 16hh and is the most honest and easy person to have around. She has 3 correct paces, is snaffle mouthed and is uncomplicated to ride. She is willing to go forward whilst never being silly or spooky and really tries in all she is asked to do.

She has been out competing at unaffiliated Showjumping, bringing home a win and a third up to 80cm.

She has been XC schooling over 90cm fences, proving to be honest and bold.

Bambi will hack either alone or in company and is good in traffic. She loads and travels well and is good to be clipped, bathed and shod. She has no health issues and will live in or out.

A video can be provided on request via WhatsApp.

This lovely boy is looking for a companion-only role in a gelding-only home where he can continue to enjoy a calm, consistent routine. Cracker is polite and well-mannered to handle. He's good to groom, has his feet picked out without fuss, and takes daily care in his stride.

Mae is a very sweet natured mare who has recently tested negative for pregnancy and is now ready to find her forever home as a non-ridden companion.

This lovely girl has had a tough start in life but remains kind, gentle, and eager for one-to-one affection and care. She thrives in a calm, loving environment and would be a wonderful addition to someone looking for a true companion.

As a standardbred breed, Mae is an excellent at taking additional grass! Meaning she doesn't need restrictive management in any form. A great addition to other large horses of similar management.

She is happy living out 24/7 or being part-stabled, and she settles well in the company of both mares and geldings. Mae enjoys the simple things; companionship, routine, and kindness.

If you can offer Mae a peaceful, caring home where she’ll be cherished for who she is, please get in touch. She deserves a second chance and a loving place to call home.

  • Parents can be seen as sold direct from the stud

Quality mare registered with the Irish Piebald and Skewbald Studbook. By Clononeen in a Pickle (licensed Traditional Cob, with IPSA and TGCA, PSSM negative), out of Midnight Magic II (successful BS mare, jumping up to Newcomers). Knappside Stormy Morning, aka Storm, is a great mare. Super easy in all ways, you can hose, clip, trim, brush, farrier, dentist, physio, vet etc all with no issue. She’s the cleanest mare I’ve ever known in a stable, so she stays white, and she’s super quick to muck out.

She was broken in in November 24, and has been ridden away since. She spent all winter stabled, 24/7, and was hacked out 3-4 times a week. She never got fresh or silly. You can lead her off of another horse, hack alone or in company, and shes a willing and sensible having a canter down tracks and across the field. We ride out onto a 50mph road and she has seen lots of traffic. On her own she can still be a bit looky on a big lorry, but inside another horse, she doesn’t even look.

In the school she’s obedient, walk, trot and canter, starting to go into an outline nicely, but this needs more work to get the consistency in the outline. She’s jumped a bit, just out of trot, but is willing and with more work should be a nice riding club / pony club type. Shes a confident type and if you ask her to do something, she will give it a go.

She would be an ideal mother / daughter share, or for anyone wanting to do a bit of everything.
Whilst she is very well behaved, and forward thinking and going, she is only five, so no novice or nervous please as we are looking for a home to continue her education and enjoy lots of adventures with her.

We’ve clipped out her legs, but she would have no more feather than a section D.

Fully up to date with vaccines, dentist, physio. Open to any vet, and happy for you to speak to ours.

Currently stabled at night, and in the field with two other mares during the days.

Lovely Thoroughbred mare with ROR potential

  • Has done showjumping clinics and arena hires, Schooling nicely on flat and hacking out.

Beautiful 5 year old bay mare, retired from racing in Autumn 2024 as not fast enough. She is a stunning looking horse who is eligible for ROR and has a promising future as a show horse. She has a great temperament and is clean limbed and sound. She moves well and is snaffled mouthed.

She has done loads of hacking on roads and open fields, unbothered by traffic, heavy machinery, proving very sensible. She’s easy and quiet to ride on the flat, has started jumping proving brave and not bothered by fillers.

She is still green in her work due to her young age and learning a new job so not suitable for a novice or nervous rider. She is quite a light framed thoroughbred so will need a lighter rider, possibly suiting a competent teenager.

She loads onto a lorry or trailer, and has been out to a few clinics and lots of arena hires and schooling improving every time. She’s good to do in every way, and currently turned out in a mixed herd.

She would make a fantastic all rounder for someone looking for a classy horse on a budget.

Wally has the best temperament on the ground perfect to be bathed, loaded, clipped, stands still for the farrier and is happy to be groomed for hours etc

Loves hacking but nappy alone and very happy with other horses not spooky past farm machinery etc. Has done on beach rides, xc trials and eventing at a low level. I have mostly been showjumping with him and he has taken me from doing 80cms to 1.10cms after jumping 1.35s with professional riders.

Wally had a field injury last year and cut his back right leg while it has not caused any long-term issues it is still healing (message for photos). This doesn’t stop me jumping him at home now back to doing 90cm courses with scope for miles. Lots of recent videos upon request.

Wally is happy to live alone or with others in a small herd but he does thrive on being outdoors and not stabled during the day. We bring him in at night at the moment but he has lived outdoors 24/7 during summer and spring.

Wally can get hot-headed and puts in excited bucks so does need a confident rider – he is a very special horse and special to me so finding him the right home is essential. He is a real confidence-giver (has saved me many times around a showjumping course).

Wally is currently stabled near Dollar, Scotland and you are welcome to come and meet him. Please call or message with any queries.
