• Full Up 14.2 - 15.2hh. Age 6 -14 yrs.
• Confident Hacking Out / Meeting Farm Vehicles. Sensible To Hack In A Group / At Pleasure Rides.
• Lightweight Cob / Connemara Or Similar Type.

I am searching for a trustworthy, best friend type to welcome to our kind, knowledgeable, family home. Our horses are treated as part of our family & they receive the absolute best of care. I would be happy to provide references & to keep in touch.

I have ridden for several years & consider myself a knowledgeable & capable rider. However, due to ongoing health issues with my horse, who is now retired, I haven’t ridden as consistently in more recent years & so I am no longer as confident as I once was. Therefore, I am seeking a laid back, best friend type, who does not need riding most days to remain safe & sane (realistically, I will generally ride 3-4 times a week).

We will be enjoying fun hacks from home, attending organised pleasure rides, forest trips, XC schooling & some clinics. I will at times want to hack alone but will also hack alongside my young daughter on her (sometimes quirky!) horse, so it is especially important that I find a level-headed, trustworthy type who I can depend on. Due to us going out in our horsebox regularly, I would like to find a horse who is good to load / travel &, most importantly, who remains calm & polite to handle & ride in different environments.

Our horses are kept at home with us & have all year turnout (stabled overnight during winter). I would love to find a gentle natured, polite character & a true best friend type.

We live in a rural area & although we generally meet very little traffic, when we do, it is often likely to be a tractor/farm vehicle. Therefore, it is hugely important that my new horse is confident around this type of traffic.

* I do appreciate that no horse is ‘perfect’ & that ‘bombproof’ does not exist & I am open to compromise, but please do just be honest about any possible known ‘issues’ as I will not buy unseen & would want to have any potential horse vetted *

We are based in Norfolk so ideally looking for something in or around East Anglia but would travel further if plenty of info, videos/photos could be provided beforehand. I have a sensible budget & very relaxed & loving forever home for the right horse.

• Exceptionally safe mannerly confidence giving ride.
• Quiet to hack alone or in company, never strong or silly.

Delilah would suite someone who needs to gain confidence and feel safe, for quiet hacks. She has been ridden by my novice 10 year old daughter. She is a pleasure to look after on the ground, absolutely no hangups or vices, gentle and super easy to do in all ways. Always snaffle mouthed. Good to catch, shoe, box, clip, with the vet, dentist, physio. Nothing phases her, great on roads with heavy traffic, motorbikes, animals, and machinery. Can be turned out individually or with a herd, mares or geldings.

Delilah has been my first horse and given me so much confidence. However l'd now like to do more than she's comfortable with and so looking to sell her to the right home. Delilah has arthritis, so unlikely to pass a vetting, therefore she is looking for a quiet hacking only home. She has annual injections and pads on her hinds which will need to be continued. I paid considerably more for her, so this is reflected in her price.

She has a lovely laid back attitude to life, you can take her anywhere and she'll take it in her stride. Travels alone or with a companion.

Delilah is up to date with farrier, dentist, worming, vaccines, physio and chiro. She comes with her Black Country GP saddle.

A beautiful horse inside and out, will only go to a 5 star genuine home who will do the best by her.

This is a very sad sale, no time wasters please.

• Old head in young shoulders

Smoothie is our wonderful 15.3hh tobiano mare with the kindest nature you could wish for.

I’ve had the pleasure of owning Smoothie since she was just five months old, and she has always been the sweetest and most straightforward of our young horses. She is always the first to greet you in the field, is excellent for the farrier, and is up to date with worming, vaccinations, and all routine care.

Her sire is Smooth Operator who has already produced off spring jumping up to 1.50 level and 3* eventers

Smoothie was professionally backed around three months ago and has taken everything in her stride. Since then, she has been to arena hires and multiple unaffiliated showjumping competitions, where she has taken the atmosphere in her stride and proved to be calm, sensible, and willing.

She truly is the definition of an old head on young shoulders and is now ready to give someone years of enjoyment.

At home, Smoothie hacks confidently going in front or behind. She is not spooky and takes everything in her stride, including cars, vans, farm machinery, and cyclists.

She is working well on the flat, is beginning to work into a consistent outline, and is established in her schooling, including correct canter leads.

Smoothie is happy to live in or out, settles well with other horses, and is good to catch, travel, tack up, groom, wash, and handle in every way.

She is a genuine, kind mare with a fantastic attitude and a bright future ahead of her. She would make a lovely all-rounder for someone looking for a sensible young horse to continue producing and enjoy for years to come.

15.2HH | 12-Year-Old | Buckskin Irish Cob Type Mare

Pebbles is the definition of a genuine, fun, and versatile all-rounder. She is the sort that’s becoming increasingly hard to find – kind, honest, experienced, and happy to turn her hoof to almost anything.

She works beautifully on the flat with a lovely step and a willing attitude, producing a consistent, rhythmical dressage test. She enjoys her jumping and has plenty of experience, having competed at unaffiliated showjumping, cross-country, fun rides, and local showing shows.

Pebbles has been in the same loving mother-and-daughter home since she was six years old. During that time, she gave the mum the confidence to start jumping again after a 10-year break, which speaks volumes about her genuine and forgiving nature. She has been a much-loved member of the family and is only available due to the daughter going away to university.

She hacks happily both alone and in company, is sensible in open spaces, and has always been excellent in the traffic she has encountered with both her current owners and ourselves.

Pebbles is a pleasure to have around the yard. She is good to clip, shoe, catch, and with all the usual handling.

Having only recently come back into work following a quieter period, she has picked everything back up with ease and is proving just what a special mare she is.

This is an incredibly sad sale of a much-loved family friend, and finding her the right home is of the utmost importance. She would make a fantastic partner for someone wanting a safe, capable horse to enjoy a variety of activities, whether that’s riding club, dressage, jumping, hacking, or simply having fun.

A truly special mare who will give her next owners as much enjoyment as she has given her current family.

• Genuine jumper with plenty of scope!
• 3 big, forwards, floaty paces!
• Lovely character to have around!

Choccy Woccy Doo Dah (aka Darcy) is a stunning 16.1hh, 10yo dark chestnut mare and is sadly looking for a new home due to her owner’s personal circumstances. Darcy’s owners bought her as a 2yo so her full history is known and she is very loved so a home that are happy to keep in contact is important.

Darcy is fairly low mileage for her age but has done plenty of arena hires, XC schoolings and a couple of unaff DR & SJ with good success. She’s been with us for just over a month to run through her paces ready for sale and has always been an absolute pleasure to have around!

Darcy has 3 very big, forward moving floaty paces therefore would not be suitable for a novice rider however she has proven safe with everything asked of her. Darcy has jumped round courses of showjumps 1m+ including fillers and water trays without questioning anything and I’m sure with more fitness she’d easily go plenty higher! She is equally very fun out XC and has flown over some very big beefy jumps - this combined with her impressive paces would make her a fantastic eventer or just a super cool all rounder for someone to have lots of fun on!

Darcy loves to hack out too! - she’s prefer to be up front if hacking in company as she can be a bit jig joggy at times but I’ve never had any worries at all sending my riders out on her! She’s brilliant with traffic, big lorry’s and farm machinery etc.

Darcy is such a pleasure to have around and absolutely loves a bath and pamper! We will really miss having her around but someone is going to be very lucky to snap her up!

Irish Cob × Friesian Gelding

A much-loved Irish Cob × Friesian gelding looking for his next forever home.

A genuine, kind horse with plenty of presence. He’s a flashy type who turns heads, but he’s never silly or sharp and has naturally lovely movement.

He has previously hunted with an Irish hunt, confidently jumped ditches and cross-country, and has been a fantastic happy hacker.

He’s seen all types of traffic, is good to load, barefoot, and comes to call in the field. He prefers hacking in company and, like many cobs, can be a little stubborn if asked to hack alone, but there’s nothing nasty about him.

He has been out of work for the last couple of months due to my daughter’s loss of interest, so will benefit from being brought back into a routine.

Suitable for a confident novice looking for a genuine horse to enjoy and have fun with.

This is a very sad sale, so the right home is far more important than the price.

FULL WELSH BREEDING

Kerys came to A.E Equestrian last year to be lightly backed and then turned away to mature. She didn't take many weeks to get hacking out well.

About weeks ago when Keyrs came back we had a very honest discussion with her owner that whilst Keyrs was progressing well with being restarted she is a very young, green active horse who will take a good year to really settle to ridden life as she would like her, therefore she part exchanged her for another horse, more suitable to her lifestyle and riding confidence.

We think she is fab, she has all the bravado of a Welsh, is a powerful, active and attractive model and is proving trainable.

We believe she will be a fabulous all-rounder in time and excel in all RC areas, maybe working hunter will be her bag!

She needs a competent, knowledgeable home who understand the breed, and can competently educate just backed horses.

She is hacking well and has had a walk, trot and canter in the arena. She has popped a couple of small fences willingly. At the beginning of backing she did a couple of rears but rode on through this, she is a young horse with a big heart and even bigger personality so needs arson to match this.

Genuine enquiries please. She will carry to her education and hopefully join a fun ride or two in Autumn.

Has had a good around education, and been xc schooling as well as competing in 5y.old classes in big atmospheres and is super sensible.

15.2 4 yo bay gelding by Sinatra. With very good pony and dressage in his breeding. 

This young lad is an absolute delight to deal with and produce. Such a straight forward brain. He has a range of very correct active paces. Which will only improve the stronger he gets. 

He has a very correct deliberate jump once he figures it all out. This horse is so willing of everything asked of him. Not spooky. Or complicated in any way at all. 

Would suit someone looking for a really easy straight forward little horse to produce up the grades in what ever discipline. 

Thank you’ll have a lot of fun and success.

• Dressage, fun rides, beach rides and have hired Arena XC

"Bestie" is a beautiful big horse with 3 lovely paces. He is a real gentle giant, soft soul. he is easy to take out and about, travels well and is a delight to deal with when away from home. I often have to take him on my own, so he is used to a one man band! he has basically been and done most things, lots of dressage, fun rides, beach rides and have hired Arena XC on him and had some fun playing around with him over some of those jumps! 

Lives in or out, with mares or geldings. he really isn't your typical stamp of an exracehorse - you can walk into an open field on him and he will just put his head down and eat the grass! but at the same time, loves going for a good canter! never strong or silly, will sit at the back or lead.

Good too do anything with, he is very hassle free.

This is an extremely hard decision for me to put this advert on, I have been with bestie since his racing days and I know him inside out and he will certainly only be going to the very best of homes, else he will be staying! homes will be vetted. price is also negotiable to the right home.

We have had Bluebell for 2 years; she has been a joy from day 1 and we are looking for her next happy home. 

She would be a great mother/daughter share or a second horse for a confident 'ish' rider (we wouldn't describe her as a first time horse). Her previous owner took her to lots of shows, but my daughter chose not to do this. 

She loves to hack out, does go alone but is better in company. She enjoys jumping and can confidently get to 85cm. 

Bluebell is a genuinely good mare with a wonderful nature. She is part Appaloosa, so she has a lovely spotty nose! 

Her Butet saddle is part of the sale, along with her bridle and rugs if the buyer is interested.

• 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.
