  • Dreamy Hunter with 3 seasons experience
  • Class allrounder, unreal over a fence
  • Confidence giving, fun type

Seasoned hunter, allrounder, riding club / fun horse. This very handsome 2016 16hh Irish (green book full recorded breeding) bay gelding is the real deal, there’s nothing he cannot do!

Apollo produces a beautiful test, he’s been in the dressage boards and schools beautifully, he has a lovely self carriage, comfortable and flashy paces and a soft snaffle mouth, he’s an excellent ride and isn’t remotely complicated in any way shape or form.

Apollo has done plenty of hunting, cross country, and showjumping. Hacking wise, Apollo is great in open spaces, good with heavy traffic, machinery etc, and he doesn’t change if he’s on his own or out with others. He’s a nice type, and will jump off any stride and will absolutely help you out if you get it wrong, he’s most certainly a confidence giver over fences and oozes scope, doesn’t look at coloured fillers / rustic fences etc, just the type to take you and look after you.

He’s a friendly lad in the yard and stable, confident and cuddly, easy to have around and a laid back personality.

Apollo is a true allrounder, he’s done a little bit of everything throughout life and is a nice quiet, yet talented ride. He has lots of hunting experience with three seasons under his belt but is equally happy doing riding club stuff.

Open to any vet or trainer

Trial period available

Beautiful 16.2hh 2012 Irish (green book) bay gelding, out and out seasoned hunter; his main job throughout his years has been hunting.

Talented, Genuine & Full of Character – 11yo 16hh Thoroughbred Gelding Jack — a smart, kind-hearted gelding who’s been a real joy to have around. He’s a talented all-rounder with plenty of ability and a big heart. We’ve had so much fun with him, and now we’d love to find him a confident, experienced rider who will enjoy him as much as we have.

Jack has a great record both at home and out competing. Most recently, he placed 2nd in a large combined training class, jumping a lovely clear and confidently tackling 12 cross-country fences. He’s been round BE90, takes everything in his stride, and is bold and genuine with ditches, steps, and water. Cross-country is definitely one of his happy places — he’s brave, straightforward, and always tries his best.

He’s also a pleasure to hack — happy to go first or last, alone or in company, and has a lovely balanced canter in open spaces. On the flat, he works nicely in a soft outline and listens well to his rider. He’s been to plenty of showjumping outings too, with placings at 90cm and 1m, showing both scope and carefulness over his fences.

Jack is a real gentleman to handle — easy to catch, shoe, load, and take out. That said, he’s a sensitive soul who thrives with a confident, kind rider who enjoys a horse with a bit of personality. He’s not a novice ride, but in capable hands he’s endlessly rewarding and great fun.

If you’re looking for a genuine, talented partner to enjoy both at home and out competing — someone you can really build a partnership with — Jack could be your perfect match.

  • Thoroughbred
  • Bay
  • Gelding
  • 10 years

  • Dressage project
  • Teens horse
  • Potential eventer

Due to no fault of his own Thaayer is now on the look for his next home. Thaayer retired sound from racing in 2023 and since then has mostly been a happy hacker. He will hack happily alone and in company and will go first or last. Thaayer is perfect in open spaces and good with traffic. I’m yet to find something that bothers him.
He is not at all the spooky type.

Thaayer went showing at the start of May 2025, placing 2nd in an open ridden class. Showing isn’t something I have much interest in so he hasn’t done anything since.
Thaayer has a lovely flicky trot and is always keen to learn. He’s a horse that loves to work and will give anything a go. Thaayer would suit someone that wants a horse to go out and have fun with. He would do a lovely dressage test and probably suit a dressage home due to his lovely moments. He is still very green in the school but is a very quick learner.

Thaayer has done very little pole work and jumping. He can do it but he’s still finding his way about this and would need someone with the confidence and knowledge to take his jumping further.

Thaayer is only for sale due to my lack of time and lack of facilities. I don’t have an arena on my yard so I only have access to hacking. I believe Thaayer has the ability to do so well in either dressage or jumping if he was in the right home. He’s one of the best horses I could’ve owned but truly believe his talent is being wasted with me.

Thaayer does crib and can pull faces at dinner time. Has been groomer whilst eating and he doesn’t react.

Vaccinations do need restarting, this is something I could sort before he leaves me.

Perfect for farrier, shod on all 4
Good to load, bath, clip.

Has been handled and ridden by kids, he’s perfect around them!

Unspoilt 3yo (rising 4) 15.3hh Irish Cob Gelding

  • Currently 15.3hh with plenty of growing and maturing still to come.
  • A big, kind, easy going youngster.

Patrick is a genuinely unspoilt, 3 rising 4 year old gelding with a wonderful temperament. He is a true “dope on a rope” to lead and handle, and a pleasure to have on the yard. He is currently measuring at 15.3hh and has 10.5” of bone.

He happily lives in or out, and turns out sensibly with both mares and geldings. Patrick has loaded and travelled on a wagon several times without issue, and has been walked out in traffic and seen farm machinery.

Patrick is unbroken, ready for someone to produce their own way. He has a willing nature and steady outlook on life. With his temperament, he could excel as a future allrounder, safe hack, hunter, or even a therapy/RDA type with the right training. He’s a total blank canvas ready for someone to bring out his full potential.

A super friendly, easy going cob who will be a lovely project for someone wanting a genuine youngster with a bright future ahead. Cobs of this size, stamp and nature are increasingly hard to find. Patrick combines height, bone and presence with an exceptionally kind, easy going outlook.

Photos don’t quite capture him, and you’ll need to look past the winter woollies, but he’s going to mature into a seriously smart cob.

I have know him since birth and owned him until he was 7 I broke him in. He is a lovely chap lovely temperament and always willing to please.

We have hunted him he was good on the field stood at the meet good with the hounds and jumps everything. He has been around a course of fences nothing phases him like fillers or anything has 3 lovely paces . Currently being ridden by a 15yr old girl .

In his current home for the last 3 years he has been on a farm so used to all animals and machinery hacks out alone or in company first or last.

I think he would prefer a active home doing a bit of everything. He is low mileage for his age so would suit more a confident experience rider.

Pringle is an 8 year old chestnut mare by Nathaniel (IRE)- Solita (USA)

A Beautiful big strong stamp of a horse, plenty of substance and a beautiful head. She is a type that is difficult to find.

Pringle has recently retired from racing with no injuries or vices and is truly a sweet, straightforward mare. She is very intelligent and has taken to her re-schooling very well, proving to be a smart contender for ROR. Pringle is a responsive but sane ride. She has just been introduced to coloured poles and shows great ability over a small fence. She is good to hack and has seen traffic. No doubt this mare will excel in any discipline.

On the ground, Pringle has great stable manners. She is kind, polite and a pleasure to handle. She’s happy to be turned out alone or with other horses, respectful of electric fencing and is not mareish. She’s tidy in her stable, loves her food and always clears up her hay.

Pringle is looking for a kind family to call her own and continue producing her into the superstar she will be. Alternatively, she has attractive enough breeding to be a broodmare.

Cisco is a lovable, kind boy looking for his best friend to enjoy lots of cuddles and have fun. This lovely homebred chap has been professionally backed and schooled and is ready to get out there and strut his stuff! He is an absolute sweetheart to handle, great to load on the horsebox, currently unshod as fab feet and good for the farrier, and fine with the vet.

He has been schooling really well, quick to learn, can do a nice leg yield and a shoulder in. He is full brother to our lovely Frank who is currently competing and winning at Advanced Medium dressage. We’ve jumped him a couple of times and he absolutely loved it! He’s hacked in company around our gallops and was well behaved when cantering with others.

He’s been to arena hires and was a really good boy.

We think he would be perfect for a competent amateur who wants a little pocket rocket to do a bit of everything. Due to his age no novices and 5 star homes only please.

Sadly for sale due to lack of time our incredible boy who has been a huge blessing to our family.

Bought for a 14 year old girl he has been an absolute angel.

There is no job this boy won’t do, he has an incredible scopey jump and has jumped up to 1.10 with us but has talent and breeding to go much further if desired.

He is incredible XC and gives you a really lovely feel around a course, maintaining a lovely natural rhythm and never ever being rude or strong.

He has beautiful flat work and naturally floaty paces so would certainly suit a dressage or eventing home.

He is amazing to hack alone or in company in the busiest of traffic and never gets silly or naughty with large vehicles or in open spaces.

He is perfect to clip/load, shoe, travel, at shows etc

A really lovely all round superstar who deserves the very best of homes
