• Perfect teenagers ride with scope to do well
• Bold Cross Country

A genuine 16.1hh, 9-year-old gelding bred by Ballywood Stud, with a lovely temperament and plenty still to give.

Max has been placed at the RAF Championships in dressage, show jumping and cross-country. He’s a genuine all-rounder who is ready for someone to get out and affiliate him.

Bred to jump, Max is incredibly bold cross-country and loves his job. He’s been to the beach, is good in traffic, hacks well, loads and travels well, and enjoys having a job to do. He’s not spooky or dangerous but is a busy ride, so would suit a confident rider rather than a novice.

He’s never been lame and is up to date with vaccinations, back checks,teeth.

Offered for sale solely due to a change in his owner’s military commitments. 5🌟 home is an absolute must.

Ballylee Sprinter - Teddy

Teddy is a true gentleman. He has so much to give for such a young horse with three uphill lovely balanced gaits. He has scope to burn, jumping with my 9-year-old daughter everything she points him at. His still young so no novice or beginners. This boy will go very far. His so genuine and kind. Would excel in any discipline. He has great confirmation for the showing ring. He is a true well-bred Connemara.
His recently come 2nd in BSJA schools with scope to burn.

Hacking, well what can I say he goes over and under motorway bridges. He has had artic lorries drive so close I felt claustrophobic, but teddy did not bat an eye lid. His is so brave and chilled. My children handle teddy in all aspects of life. He falls asleep being clipped.

He is 6 so please only people that really want to bring out his true purpose in life. We will continue his education until the right home comes along. My son adores Teddie and if my circumstances were different, he would not be for sale. He loads, clips, farrier, hacks, jumps. His up to date with everything. Currently living out unshod, in work and competeing.

Benny has been slowly produced out of Ireland. He is a big chap with big movement so has been given time to mature.

He goes beautifully on the flat, has placed and won Hunter classes both local and county shows.

A huge powerful jump.

• Very safe pc/rc pony
• 75% at last dressage competition
• Great allrounder

Cloudy is a gorgeous grey Connemara gelding who wants to please and is a genuine, safe horse.

We have owned him for 4 years and have a great bond so this is a very sad sale.

Cloudy is talented at dressage and from the age of 6 has never had a score lower than 66%, with his scores in the last year being in the 70's.

He came 8th at pony club area dressage and qualified for Bicton last year, always producing a calm, rhythmical test. He has been working at prelim but is more than ready to step up to novice.

He has regularly competed at 70 & 80cm showjumping and arena eventing, coming home with lots of rosettes. He has been placed in the top ten at ODE's.

Cloudy loves hacking and would hack all day on the buckle.

Brilliant with all traffic and farm machinery as he lives on a busy lane.

He is great to school and is a very easy enjoyable ride. He has a lovely floaty trot and knows rein-back, turn on the forehand etc. He is a quick thinker and learner and enjoys polework. He is very good to ride in open spaces, never feeling out of control. The kind of horse you can trust to stop easily when going for a gallop. His first fun ride was Badminton and he was a dream.

Good to clip, shoe and will stand all day at a show. The kind of horse that pony club DC's pick for bandaging practice at rallies! Happily turns out with mares or geldings. He is great travelling in a trailer without a partition as he prefers more space. We haven't travelled him in a box before but we're sure he would be fine. Good to load. Up to date with worming, back, teeth and vaccinations.

We have had a brilliant 4 years with him doing loads of competitions including showjumping, eventing, pony club, area and pony camps with him being super throughout.

He was treated for arthritis in his hocks in 2025 and the vet confirmed he is sound and can continue all riding and competing. He is enjoying being back in work and able to do all previous activities happily.

Selling due to daughters other commitments, hence the reluctant sale.

Would suit a confident and experienced adult or teen wanting to have fun doing everything from dressage to showjumping and xc. Alternatively he would also suit a hacking home enjoying fun rides.

5* home only for this superstar.

Wow where to start with lovely Bobby. He’s just a gorgeous boy inside & out. There is nothing more you could want from an amateurs / teenagers allrounder, he has it all! We sold this amazing boy and he was 5 stage vetted and passed with flying colours, however the purchaser couldn’t come up with the balance therefor he’s back available and comes with a vet cert!

This gorgeous little horse is an absolute diamond. Fabulous breeding by the infamous Bog Mac Bobby. He has the most incredible laid back can-do attitude, while also being super good looking, a lovely mover & having a cracking jump. He is young but he absolutely is an old soul - we specialise in easy young horses and he is absolutely one of the best we’ve ever had.

He has 3 lovely paces and a super balanced canter. Learns very quickly and going sweetly on the flat. He is super super trainable and just wants to please. Soft mouthed and snaffle for everything. Never strong at all. Would be slightly more push than go but not a lazy horse.

Bold and brave to all SJ & XC fences. Totally unphased about new fillers, spooky fences or arenas, xc fences, ditches, steps water. Always easily controllable and never silly. Will step up a gear to show athleticism over a bigger fence and happy to pop round on a long buckle end from trot if you prefer. He’s so so easy. Would be great fun to get out to camps this summer and I know he won’t put a hoof wrong. Has been out a handful of times with us and behaved like a 10yo in every way.

Hacks like a dream alone or in company and off / on road. So unphased by traffic and tractors / trailers that if you don’t move him around them he might well just get run over. Happy to canter in front or behind without ever thinking of being silly. So enjoyable to hack / fun ride and has also hunted a handful of times proving a pleasure. I would happily put a complete novice on him.

Super easy to handle and not at all “Irish”. Very friendly, loves being brushed more than anything in the world. Good to pick his legs up, not head shy, great to catch (frequently used as bate to catch another). Great to lead. Totally chilled enough to be fully handled by a child or older person or non horsey husband if needed. The kindest and sweetest boy on the ground with a cute funny personality.

Absolutely zero quirks at all. A rare find who deserves a fantastic home.

Not a mark on him, not even a splint! No vices or sarcoids. Absolutely no quirks or issues in any way.

Fergal is a Very handsome Connemara who is an absolute picture to look at and is a lovely boy to work with.

3 lovely paces with a very balanced canter and a soft mouth. Always snaffle mouthed. Has plenty of potential as an amateur dressage horse.

Has been schooling around approx 80cm with scope to go a bit more. Has a good technique and not strong. Would make a lovely amateur all rounder. Straight forward to train and not spooky.

Has attended various lessons & clinics and been well behaved.

Good to hack on / off road.

We have been working with him for the last few weeks, he’s come from an amateur lady rider who has brought him on slowly with his future in mind. Since he’s been with us he’s come on so so quickly and we are so pleased with his progress. A few weeks ago I’d have said he was a bit behind for his age now I would say he’s catching up rapidly.

A very easy horse to handle in every way.

Honest, sad sale due to owner busy with new grandma duties. Excellent home required for this lovely, kind boy.

• Three lovely paces

17.2hh 18yo warmblood x gelding. Has previously hunted including whipping in and in his youth been a masters horse. Also competed in dressage, showjumping, eventing, and pony club activities.
 

He is a big impressive looking horse who gets compliments everywhere he goes! He loves attention and will stand for hours for a pamper and a cuddle!

He is ridden by the whole family and is a horse that does not need riding everyday and will be the same after a week off.

He has three lovely paces on the flat.

He is now looking for a quieter life to enjoy hacking, training shows, hunter trials, a pamper, just a non competitive life!

He is fit and able to compete but i would rather him now go to someone that is going to enjoy his golden years.

He is good to shoe, load (will stand on the lorry for hours), is good on the ground, but needs some time and patience to clip without sedation.

He is brilliant in traffic and hacks alone or in company.

Please do not let his age put you off, he’s a spring chicken at heart!!

Our ideal home for him would be someone that is confident and capable that wants a nice horse to enjoy, schooling, doing clinics, hacking, riding club etc.

He is a big quality horse so please NO NOVICES as we want a 5* home for him.

• Total blank canvas with no vices
• More slow than go quiet ride
• Would benefit from starting from scratch, perfect project!

Pebble is a project who in the right hands could be anything with some time & patience.

Pebble ran once in a National hunt bumper but didn’t show any desire to be a racehorse. She has just had some downtime in the field since then. She would really benefit from having her own person who is willing to start from scratch and work with her not against her.

She’s currently in light work. She does basic flatwork, she has three balanced paces. She hasn’t done much schooling so is very green but is a working progress.

She hasn’t previously done any jumping but I have started getting her over poles and small cross poles which she took in her stride.

She is more slow than go and takes plenty of leg. Never strong. She is still immature, she hasn’t seen much of the world. She has seen all types of traffic when walking to the gallop daily but in company.

Lives in & out in company. Good to box, travel & shoe (currently barefoot.) No previous injuries. No sarcoids. No blemishes. No lumps or bumps. No vices. Not marish but is an opinionated person to ride & slightly fussy in the mouth. Never bucked, reared or napped whilst with us. Always had competent riders onboard. Loves fuss and wonderful on the ground.

Not suitable for a novice, nervous riders or children. Only experienced people please.

No loans. No payment plans. No timewasters or day trippers we are a busy yard & it’s a busy time of year. Serious enquiries only.

• Genuine, kind horse with a fantastic attitude to work
• Has all the ingredients to make an exceptional all-rounder
• Hacks alone or in company

Due to genuine personal circumstances, Rocco is sadly looking for a new home. This is through absolutely no fault of his own, and he will only be sold to the very best home.

Rocco is a genuine, kind horse with a fantastic attitude to work. He is always willing to please and gives everything a go. He takes confidence from his rider, so he would be best suited to someone who can ride positively and consistently. However, he would also happily suit a confident novice rider with some horse knowledge who is looking for a genuine young horse to enjoy and continue producing. Kind, willing and eager to learn, Rocco has all the potential to make an outstanding all-round horse.

Rocco was professionally backed at the start of last winter before being turned away to mature. He returned to work in March and has been riding away consistently ever since. Despite his young age, he has taken everything in his stride and continues to impress with his willing attitude and sensible nature. He really is an old head on young shoulders, taking new experiences in his stride and always trying his best.

Since coming back into work, he has enjoyed beach rides, cross-country schooling, flatwork and plenty of hacking. He hacks happily alone or in company and is equally happy leading or following. He is very good in open spaces and, although he may be a little more forward in completely new environments, there is never anything silly or naughty about him. He has a lovely, level-headed temperament and always tries his best.

He is also incredibly genuine to ride after time off. He recently had several days off during the hot weather and came straight back into work without any fuss.

On the ground, Rocco is a pleasure to have around and is a real yard favourite thanks to his kind, friendly nature. He has lovely stable manners and is easy to handle in all respects.

Rocco is:

* Good to catch

* Good to load

* Can be unsure with the farrier but is improving with regular handling

* Well-mannered on the ground and in the stable

* Easy to do in all ways

* Up to date with vaccinations, dentist and farrier

* Free from lumps, bumps, blemishes, sarcoids or vices

* Recently passed a full 5-stage vetting with no issues

Unfortunately, his breeding is unknown.

Rocco has all the ingredients to make an exceptional all-round horse for someone wanting a genuine young horse to continue producing. He has a fantastic brain, a kind nature and a real willingness to learn, making him an exciting prospect for the future.

Rocco is equally happy living in or out and is content either with other horses or on his own.

Based in Dorset.

High four figures

The very best home is absolutely essential and will be carefully vetted.

• 12 years

• 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.

• 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.
