Lovely Allrounder Gelding looking for his Forever Home


Ref #: 391560
  • Mother/daughter share
  • Low level competition
  • Hacking/sponsored ride/PC/RC
£7,500
  • Irish
  • Grey
  • Gelding
  • 14 years
  • 16.1 hands
  • Mother/daughter share
  • Low level competition
  • Hacking/sponsored ride/PC/RC

We have owned Nev since he was 6.  He has been out to many different clinics and unaffiliated competitions XC, SJ, Sponsored Rides, Combined Training, Polework, Bridleless, Liberty. Lots of placings at unaffiliated prelim/novice dressage. 

He loves his jumping and will happily pop round a course of 80/90cm showjumps or xc. He’s not bothered by fillers or water etc. He has done some unaffiliated eventing with double clears and won at 80cm SJ clear round. 

He hacks alone and in company and is good with traffic and farm machinery. Enjoys sponsored rides. He is good to lead off. He has done lots of work on the ground including liberty work/natural horsemanship and bridleless - he is amazing with this and appears to really enjoy it.

He likes having a good routine and a confident lightweight jockey, he can put in a very occasional buck so probably not suitable as a first horse. 

He is good on the ground with farrier/dentist/clipping etc and loads and travels really well. Good with children, chickens, dogs, peacocks, deer, pheasants and Shetlands! We think he would settle well at a family farm or small livery yard, with a relaxed jockey who wants to enjoy a bit of everything. 

Very sad sale so a good home is very important. References available and lots of photos and videos available on request. Open to vetting.

By (Tullabeg Fusion) x Connie/ID/TB - old irish bloodlines

Marley is the safest sweetest beautiful compact horse to ride. Very easy to own and handle. Very straightforward to ride.

Hacks alone or in company (never bolts, spins, nap etc).

Loads and travels in trailer or lorry. Can take to show on his own and not spooky or difficult in new environments. No vices and good to do in all ways.

Very easy to jump, has jumped up to 1m at home (which we would assess is his comfort zone), rarely touches a pole, not spooky and is brave, not phased by anything.

Been XC schooling and clinics and evented at BE80 UA jumping optional 90 fences.

Came 5th 80 eventing.

Won his first dressage show and placed SJ and Arena Eventing

Currently on hunting livery, where he is learning the ropes hunting in Surrey. He has jumped ditches, rails, hedges, stood nicely in between lines without fizzing up or getting silly and stood calmly on the trailer.

Turns out in a herd and individually.

Seen all sorts of traffic and jump fillers/XC fences inc ditches/water etc and jumps everything - very kick and press

Been professionally produced and competed.

Full history known - Purchased as a just-backed 3yo and since then has been with me to continue his education with his long term future in mind. Only for sale as he’s very sadly a tad too small for me and I have a second which is more suited height-wise and career and family commitments sadly don’t allow time for two. He deserves to be some one’s no 1 as he has so much to give and always puts a smile on your face.

Professionally fitted gorgeous stuebben jump saddle, bridles and full wardrobe of rugs available for £2,000

Looking for the perfect home for this genuine boy where he can fulfil his potential.

Would suit a teenager or petite adult looking for an overgrown pony type

More woah than go - but has plenty of stamina and is a joy to ride for all the family.

Viewings welcome, he will not be sold unseen as I care that he goes to a nice home and myself and his previous owners would like to keep in to

A real cool cob

  • Easy, unflappable and trainable
  • A placid, sweet but brave nature and is fabulous to be around

Geoff is a 14.2hh chunky Bay Blagdon gelding, 3 yrs (rising 4)

We have had Geoff since the start of summer and he was purchased as a project. Sadly a change in my work circumstances force a sale earlier than I would have liked. That being said, he has been broken to ride lightly and is proving to be everything we hoped.

He has a placid, sweet but brave nature and is fabulous to be around. Catch, lead, tie up, muck out round, groom, farrier. He has a lovely nature with other horses too.

Over summer he has worn tack, long reined in the school and on the lane and has been ridden round the school and on the lane. Nothing has been rushed, he has then been turned away for a number of weeks and brought back in. The fact that we brought him in, tacked him straight up and got on for a stroll round the arena and the yard is indicative to the nature of this lovely cob. Easy, unflappable and trainable.

He is young and green so will be sold to a knowledgeable home only, however, he is going to make someone a fabulous cob with size and substance. They don’t make them like this anymore. We can also continue with his education for the short term (should his new owner wish).

Serious enquiries only. He is based near Whalley, Lancashire. He can come with tack by separate negotiation and we can arrange transport nationally.

Geoff is aound, never sick or sorry, no sweetitch, great feet and no sarcoids.

He is open to vet.

Cookie - 16.1hh 2011 gelding who is a the perfect teenagers horse or riding club allrounder. I have owned Cookie for almost two years and in that time I have done pretty much everything with him.

We have jumped up to discovery British Showjumping and schooling around 120 at home. He makes a lovely shape and gives you a great feel over a fence. He’s confidence giving and has taken me from jumping wobbly 80cm courses to 125cm.

Cookie is exactly the same cross country, completely unfazed by anything you put infront of him, he is as honest as they come.

We have also done lots of pleasure rides, beach/ forest trips etc. I take him out on my own regularly and he is very easy and mannerly.

He will hack alone and with others, he’s perfect in any big, scary traffic and is never spooky. Easy in big open spaces and always snaffle mouthed.

Cookie really is anyone’s ride, he is more than happy to school round a BS track with your more experienced jockey or take your gran out for a hack. He is one in a million.

Schools on his own or in company with both flatwork and jumping and not too forward going or ploddy. Not spooky or sharp.

Has attended flatwork, pole and jump lessons with riding club and has also attended two residential camps.

Lovely to deal with on the ground and as amateurs we have managed to clip and trim him ourselves.

Good to shoe, clip, catch, load and travel and in traffic. No vices.

Schooled over show jumps and cross country fences and fine with water, steps and small ditch. Super jump and doesn't seem bothered by fillers.

In recent months he has been flatwork schooled by a professional dressage rider and his flatwork is coming along nicely.

Although he is a chunky horse he is responsive to the aids without being over sensitive.

Sad sale as owners giving up.

Andy is wise beyond his years, I haven’t sat on a more straightforward horse. He adores his jumping and will do anything to help his rider out. He is a phenomenal event prospect and will make someone’s dreams come true, either for badminton grassroots/ U18/ or 2*!

Andy is established on the flat, works in a lovely contact in walk/trot/canter. He is starting to learn his leg yields as well, he has a green change each way.

He has just jumped his first discovery showjumping and made it feel super easy. He is bold at fillers, never looks at a thing. He gives a powerful feel over a fence and will always help his rider out. Andy has competed arena eventing at 90/100 and never looked at a thing, you always come back grinning after riding him. He has done a hunter trial and is ready to go out with a bang next season.

Andy hacks alone or in company. He is brilliant in heavy traffic. Stands on the lorry alone or in company, you can take his friend away and he will just wait on the lorry. He is brilliant to shoe and clip. No vices, he is up to date with everything.

This horse has given me my confidence back after a horrendous fall off another horse. He deserves the best home. Horses like he do not come around often!

  • Fit and ready to crack on with

This lovely 7 year old ex National Hunt racehorse is looking for his new home and a new career after racing! He didn't have enough ability to shine on the track and it is time for someone else to enjoy this lovely boy. He could do any job from hunting, team chasing, showjumping/cross country to just a happy hacking life. He has lots of jumping experience and has been hunting twice, giving his rider lots of fun both times and wasn't strong or silly.

He is very sound and fantastically straightforward. He will hack out alone or in company, and is easy to canter in front or in behind other horses. He is currently living out 24/7 but equally was happy stabled 24/7 when he was in training.

He had a minor tendon injury at the start of this year which he has now fully recovered from and all rehab completed. This should not affect him in the future and was not the reason for his retirement from racing. He is now fit and ready to go for his new owner.


He is a thoroughbred so not suitable for a novice rider. The best home only for this lovely chap and please no time wasters. £1.5k ono - a nice home is most important for the owner.

This is a truly heartbreaking sale of our beautiful Mojo.

We purchased Mojo 2yrs ago for my teenage daughter to move onto horses . We knew he had gone ring sour when showjumping competitively but we thought with time and patience we could get him back out as he does love to jump unfortunately this hasn’t been the case he simply doesn’t enjoy it.

He will happily jump at home, arena hire etc just not at a competition.

We have exposed him to the world of dressage which he loves and has no problems competing, he had never done it before and is scoring late 60s at prelim level and would easily climb the levels as he moves beautifully. We have only done unaffiliated competitions.

He is a saint to hack out on his own in company and fantastic in open spaces . We have done fun rides etc.

No vices whatsoever my daughter handles him on her own . Never been sick or sorry since we’ve owned him , great to clip shoe , teeth , vets etc . Loads easily.

We would love to keep him forever but feel he is wasted as my daughter loves showjumping and is concentrating on her jumping pony.

He will only go to the best of homes where he will be loved and listened to, he is a gentle giant with a big sensitive heart . No novices as he is a powerful big moving horse.

Serious enquiries only as this is hard enough. Price includes quality tack and rugs.
