Rosie is a fun, forward-going mare who enjoys her work and is always keen to get on with a job.

She has previously done plenty of show jumping, dressage and hunting in her last home. Since being with us she has been out hunting a few times towards the end of the season, as well as fun rides, beach rides, cross country schooling and pub rides.

Hunting, she has been out with the Coakham Bloodhounds and Staff College. She stands quietly at the meet, will stand on or tied to the lorry, is keen when going and will jump everything with or without a lead. She then stands nicely at the end of the lines and will practically load herself to come home.

Cross country schooling, she is thoroughly enjoyable and will go over everything – water, ditches, hedges, timber and skinnies.

She has plenty of experience show jumping up to 80/90cm unaffiliated.

She loves hacking, is good in traffic and in open spaces. She is again keen and enjoys her work, but is still a safe ride.

Rosie would suit an experienced, confident teenager or small adult who enjoys a forward ride, jumping and faster work. She would not suit a nervous novice rider.

She would make a fabulous ladies hunter and would also do a field mastering job.

No stable vices.
Full history known, previous owner would love to stay in contact if allowed.

Striking 4yo ISH Gelding, by Carrabawn Cross X Star Kingdom, with an attitude to die for way beyond his years. We really do think this lovely young horse has it all to be a fabulous hunter or Allrounder for anyone. He’s extremely easy to ride, ridden regular by my little 13yo sister, always in a snaffle and a complete pleasure to ride and have around.

Peanut has hunted in Ireland, and while here with us he’s been XC and SJing arena hires, UA SJing competition, lots of hacking and we have continued his education in the arena. He has beautiful paces, scopey Jump and completely unfazed by fillers. He’s now more than ready to go to his new home where he’ll make a top class hunter or Allrounder.

At home Peanut is a pleasure. He hacks alone and in company, he’s vice free and is the sort that doesn’t need riding every day. He’s out in a small herd but equally happy on his own or in.

Meet MISSY

15.3hh | 17yo | Bay Irish Mare

The ultimate pocket rocket who will happily step up for the bigger jumping days but is equally capable of stepping down for a competent child.

Missy has done every fun ride going and has enjoyed many trips to the beach with both children and adults. She is a well-known face on the hunting field and absolutely thrives in that environment.

Previously whipped-in in Ireland before coming to us, Missy absolutely loves her hunting and jumping. In the 7 years I’ve owned her she has never stopped at a fence. She will happily sit anywhere in the field and is not strong, just keen and enthusiastic about her job.

That said, I wouldn’t put a complete novice on her out hunting, simply because she enjoys it so much and may be a little much for someone brand new to hunting.

At home she is quiet enough for a novice.

Missy is clueless in the school, but will happily pop round a course of show jumps or cross-country fences. She hacks alone, is absolutely bombproof, and takes everything in her stride.

She is easy to do in all ways with absolutely no vices.

A genuine, much-loved mare looking for a fun home where she can continue to do what she loves.

Never sick or sorry and doesn’t need riding every day.

Cutting down on horses hirelings been very slow this season.

Meet Robby – The Ultimate Schoolmaster & Confidence Giver

Robby is a lovely 17-year-young, 16.2hh Maxi Cob gelding looking for a kind and knowledgeable home where he can enjoy happy hacking, hunting and fun days out.

A genuine schoolmaster and nanny horse, Robby has taught countless riders over the years. He is a real confidence giver and an easy, enjoyable ride. Anyone can hack him out and he has safely introduced many people to riding and hunting. He loves beach rides, pub rides, and a day out with the hounds, and has given many riders their first enjoyable days hunting.

He does require a little management once a year to keep him comfortable. X-rays have shown slight navicular changes in his near fore. His coffin joint has been injected and he wears pads in front. He is currently sound, happy and still enjoying his job, with no reason he couldn’t do a few more seasons.

Please note: Robby will not pass a full vetting, so please don’t enquire if this is essential. However, he passes the veterinary inspection every year for my riding school licence and continues to work happily.

Important:
• No time wasters
• No loans or payment plans
• Not for someone wanting to jump grassroots
• No one wanting to bring trainers – he is not going to a schooling home

Normal, genuine homes only please.

Transport can be arranged and part exchange may be considered. Priced realistically for a quick, straightforward sale, but he will not be given away.

Reason for sale: The hirelings weren’t busy enough this season so I’m rethinking my career and moving some of my older horses on to loving, knowledgeable homes.

To ride he is very straightforward, he enjoys his work and is pleasantly forward going whilst being sensible and level headed. He is very willing to please, and is showing promise for Dressage in the arena with his natural head carriage and good balanced movement. He has enjoyed his introduction to jumping and has plenty of pop in him! He is brave and honest, he walked straight on to our metal cattle trailer and straight in to the lake for a paddle. He is standing almost 14.3hh at the so should make at least full up 15hh. On the ground Jinu is a pleasure, he is always happy to see you and loves attention.
