GARRY
4yo 15.2 cob
Novice proof
Smart, Striking, and Ready to Go!

A beautifully marked piebald cob gelding with looks, brains, and a brilliant attitude.

Forward-thinking and responsive, Garry is not your typical cob — he’s eager to please, enjoys his work, and has a lovely go about him without being sharp or silly.

He’s a genuine, uncomplicated ride who has been cross country, beach rides and takes absolutely everything in his stride.

A super safe cob, safe enough for a sensible novice ride or happy to step up jump a course of fences no problems.

Hacks alone or in company and is super sensible out in open spaces. He’s perfect in the heaviest of traffic including buses, tractors, lorry’s etc.

Great to shoe, clip, vets, load etc. no lumps bumps or vices.

A proper model stamp of a cob, Garry has all the presence to stand out in the show ring, plus the brain and versatility to excel in any job — from pleasure riding to riding club level. He also has a cracking bold jump on him and never says no!

He’s a rare find — young, trainable, and ready to go on in any direction.

For sale due to my daughter moving out and loosing interest. I haven’t got the time and experience and hence for the past 12+ months I have used him as a happy hacker, being a novice mum.

15hh 11 year, gelding with a superb kind temperament and so much scope. Unrecorded breeding on basic Irish passport.

He’s done hacking, fun rides, XC, show jumping in the past. My daughter used to do team chase, hunting and hound exercise which I believe he really enjoyed. However these days he’d equally is just as happy being a happy hacker and perhaps in time build up to doing some fun rides again. He’s not faced by having machinery, children, dogs or other horses around him. Hacks alone or in company.

He’s good to load on a trailer or lorry, good with vets, easy to catch, shoe, clip, stands quietly to groom and good for dentist. He’s a gem to have around and so easy to do.

He is however is currently not great in canter in the school. I feel cater work in the school is going to be a project. He has not done any jumping recently but I know he was quick to the fence in the past. I believe he needs an experienced adult rider to work with him if he is ridden in a school.

I however am a novice and he’s only done hacking with myself in the past year. He’s brilliant if hacking is all you want from him. If you want more then he will need someone with some patience and skill. Sadly I haven’t got the time to do enough with him. He could be a great mother and adult daughter share.

Beach picture is a recent one.
Jumping picture is 18 months ago.

He is based in St Agnes in Cornwall.

Ollie is a 15h section D cross. Beautiful looking palomino gelding.

Been in the same home since he was a foal. Started his riding education late and it has not been consistent. He started out well and came on nicely but as he's learned more he's gotten more opinionated.

He needs consistent work to bring him on to his full ability and I cannot do that for him. Not a novice ride, he's been with Sean Hardy doing some intensive training to get him working and ready to go to his next home.

He has done a novice show and did Windsor sponsored ride last year, where he behaved beautifully. Has popped a small jump but hasn't done much formal schooling, we mostly hack out.

Lives out all year. Good for the farrier and the dentist. No injuries or dental issues that are known. Will load and travel alone, although hasn't done it that often. Ollie needs someone who is willing to carry on his education and really make him shine.
