***still searching October 28th beginning to lose all hope, I have been to see 2 horses in 4 months and everything else has sold without me getting chance to view. I’m a great believer in “everything happens for a reason” and I do believe my next partner is out there somewhere**********

Im a confident rider with many many years of experience with different breed of horses. However, as I am nearing 40, i am now looking for my last horse of a life time, so looking for a nice allrounder to have fun and bring me back home safe and in one piece.

I own a small holding which consists of stables, arena and 10 acres of land.

Currently have 6 horses at home which consist of a pony for my daughter, 2 retired that have been with me for years and 3 youngsters I bred myself.

Things I am looking for in my next horse - they must be easy to do in all ways, I often will go to shows by myself or with my young daughter.

Confidence giver and forgiving in the jumping department, someone to help me out when I get it wrong - nice steady approach when jumping, don’t want something that locks on a shoots forward.

Hack out alone and in company.

Would like to start doing more dressage, so something that knows the basics.

I do enjoy the odd fun ride with a friend so would be nice if I can do this without the horse jogging the entire way or running off when another horse comes past. (Had many of these type of horses when I was younger, my body was more able back then)

No bucking, rearing - I understand it is impossible to ask for a bomb proof horse but something not too spooky.

I am actively looking and have a healthy budget for the right horse.

Height - 15.2hh to 16.3hh

Age - 6 turning 7 2026 years to 11years may go slightly older depending on how old. But don’t want to go any younger as I do what the horse to have experience.

Ideally looking to buy from a private home, someone who has had their horse for a while and knows a lot of history.

Horse must be open to vet and vet history.

If you think you may have something to suit please get in touch.

I am also happy to keep in touch with previous owner etc.

Sorry no full TB/ex racer or cobs
Happy to receive what’s app videos etc I am based in North wales, happy to travel up to 2/5 hours from Wrexham

Thanks for reading.

******** Please please only message if your horse fits my criteria above. I have had a lot of people messaging me with 4 year olds/ rising 5 year old or 13/14 years old. This is not what I am after - I already have youngsters at home and 2 retired horses. ***********

REDUCED FOR QUICK SALE as jockey soon leaving

Exceptionally well bred & low mileage.

It’s taken me all summer to finally write this as I simply love this horse but with ‘Taylor’s’ jockey heading off on travels before uni, it’s time to find him his next loving home.

Well mannered & confidence giving, he’s perfect for someone looking to step up to horses or alternatively wanting to step down to something safer but still fun. He is light in the mouth & responsive to the aids.

Taylor has done a bit of everything between my son & daughter (18 & 14) over the last two years inc eventing clinics at Somerford & Greenlands EC, PC & NSEA - qualifying for national champs & placing 2nd in Novice plate final with new 12yr old rider.

He loves XC (Badminton grassroots prospect).
Bred to jump (I’m told his half sister won European gold league) yet we’ve only asked up to 90cm of him out & up to 1m15 at home.
He’s even done some archery - my son’s favoured discipline.

100% barefoot, good with farrier, vet, clip etc.
Does not weave or wind suck & is a dream to load (box or trailer).
Is not spooky & has never been known to spin or bolt.

He prefers company in the field and is equally content with mares or geldings.

He really is the best of horses to handle & hack out. Not a nasty bone in his body & never had a day off sick/ unsound. Full history known. No medical issues but will only go somewhere with access to adequate year round turnout.

Pls call Natalya on 07880804719 if interested.

Dolly , 14.2hh 5 year old (2020) bay Irish cob mare. A super stamp , with a real workmanlike attitude. Mother daughter share / alrounder / happy hacker / potential hunter / pony club.

We brought Dolly over from Ireland around 3 months ago , where she’d been lightly broken and had a foal last year. Since being with us , Dolly has done loads of hacking , been xc schooling , arena hires and farm rides.

Dolly loves hacking , she will go all day , pass any traffic and good in open spaces. She has been a real solid lead horse for our breakers , she happily goes alone or in company.

Dolly has good basic flatwork , works well in all 3 paces and pops round a course. She is still green in places. Enjoys her jumping , makes a good shape and is bold to showjumps and xc fences.

Dolly could make a super hunter , she has a great engine for a cob. She is nicely forward going off the leg , and has a forward way about her. Shes not a plod along ! For this reason she wouldn’t suit a novice or nervous rider. More suited to a competent teen / small adult who wants to go out and have some fun. Although Dolly has plenty of potential , she really wouldn’t mind just being a happy hacker for the rest of her days , she’s not a world beater! She really does love the hacking.

Dolly is super sweet natured , and a lovely cob to have around. She’s easy to do everything with. Up to date with dentist , farrier , worming etc. She has a very small lump under her belly , she’s had it since birth , not a hernia , doesn’t affect her at all and shouldn’t affect her passing a vetting. It’s not a hard lump , like a bit of extra skin. No other lumps , bumps , stable vices etc.

  • The sweetest horse you can meet

The kindest mare you will ever meet who is really coming into her own.

15.2hh 5yr old reg ID x cob by King of Mourne. Jessie is a very kind, sweet horse who people cannot help but fall in love with. Not only is she beautiful to look at, very nice short coupled conformation, big uphill paces she also has the best personality a horse can have.

Not at all marish, she turns out with mares, geldings or alone, excellent to catch, load, shoe, bath, in and out of the stable and is just an absolute pleasure to have around.

To ride she improves every time under saddle, schooling nicely in all 3 paces and learning some basic lateral. She’s intelligent and a quick learner, however she wouldn’t suit a novice rider as still has so much to learn herself.

We have popped a few fences which she seems to enjoy, she always has a go and never says no.

Jessie hacks alone or in company, she’s excellent in traffic, hacks over the M62 and over railway crossings, stands at traffic lights and will hack past a busy school whilst children are playing. She isn’t as confident going alone but will happily go with a confident rider and this is something that improves every time.

Absolutely no vices, the loveliest horse to have on the yard. Totally clean legged and excellent feet (only shod in front)

Up to date with worming, farrier and dentist.

Only a very special home as she really wants a best friend.

Good to deal with and a lovely person to work with.

Been with me for the past 3 years, professionally broken last year. Currently with lorna over in west Yorkshire restarting her eduction

Hacks out like a diamond on 40mph road daily.

Walks, trots and canters in the arena but is understandably green and wobbly.

straightforward just needs further educating in the arena and therefore wouldn't really suit a novice rider, can have the odd nap and a scuttle forward if she is unsure.

***Available to view later this week at Arena UK! ***

This lovely horse is very sadly for sale to a kind and knowledgable home. Good in all ways and the nicest person to have around - the yard favourite.

Well schooled with good paces he would absolutely succeed in dressage but is also very forgiving to a fence and stays on a good rhythm so would make a high quality all round horse for someone to enjoy.

Has been competed BS including Discovery double clears but is not forward enough for me so I’m very reluctantly trying to find him a new home.

Hacks on own and in company and is good in all ways.

A genuine sale of a genuinely nice horse.

No complete novices please - he is an easy ride but I would like him to be in a more experienced home.

Update - just won and was 2nd in his first BD Novice classes today having not competed in dressage for 2 years!

  • 16.1hh | 13 years | Irish Sport Horse Gelding
  • By Ballybough Cois Tine | Full Green Studbook

Sparky is the ultimate top level amateur’s competition horse. He is incredibly sweet natured, loves his work, and has been with his breeder all his life until now. He has competed successfully all over Ireland in multiple disciplines, including winning the National Riding Club Championships, Working Hunter, Dressage, Eventing and Show Jumping.

A genuine competitive allrounder. Sparky moves well and has been consistently placed in dressage competitions. He has showjumped up to 1.10m I feel he has plenty of scope, bravery, and a heart for much bigger tracks and will be a super Bronze/Silver league competitor. He is ultra reliable, never stops, and will jump from any stride.

Still eligible for British Novice classes, he is a fun and competitive horse who will quickly progress through the levels. Sparky takes you to the fence, giving his rider confidence that he will always get them from start to finish. He is clever, careful, and always looks after both himself and his rider.

He would suit a rider coming off 148s looking for a competitive, experienced horse without the expense of a big budget purchase, with potential to compete successfully up to 1.30m or in young rider classes.

Sparky is a cross country machine, brave as a lion and willing to jump anything asked of him. He has previously evented in Ireland and takes everything in his stride, jumping ditches, hedges, skinnies, water etc.

He has a classical, balanced way of going with a quality athletic jump, making him equally suited as a hunter/jumper type for export to the USA.

Sparky has hunted in Ireland and once here in the UK recently. He would suit being up front, ideally as a Master’s or Whip’s horse, as he happily rides away from the field. He hacks alone or in company, has seen all types of traffic, and is not spooky.

He has clean legs, good feet, and no stable vices. A fun, forward thinking, experienced horse with low mileage and can be left for days without riding and not get fresh.

Good to shoe, box, clip, and with the dentist. He can be cheeky to catch, but will happily put himself in his stable when the gate is left open.

Novices need not apply he is a competition horse with an engine.

  • Sadly looking for a new home due to owner giving up horses.
  • 15.2 HW Cob gelding, 9 years old.

Up to date with teeth & vaccinations. Has regular routine Osteo, physio, saddle fitting etc

Good to catch, bath, clip (twitch for legs and ears), load, travel etc

We've had Bugsy for 3 years where he has mostly hacked and hunted. He was bought for a petite lady Master to enjoy social days out hunting, and he does exactly that. He's a pleasure; goes in a snaffle, front middle or back. Keeps up but with a level head. Great with hounds. We've not jumped him (no need) and although not a thrusters horse, will get over a log etc in the way, if needed. Perfect through/over ditches.

Very sensible out hacking. We're based just off a busy High Street and he regularly rides through the town, completely unfazed by traffic. Rides under/over motorway bridges. Prefers to go in company, but will go alone with a confident rider. He is not silly in anyway, just not the bold, brave type that'll take you. We have no problems and he does regularly go on his own.

This summer, I decided to have a go at showing him, where he far exceeded expectations. Although unaffiliated, he went Super Supreme at the Sunshine Tour Championship (Hickstead) and had fantastic comments from all the judges and stewards, including one who judges cobs professionally. I expect he would do very well with someone keen on the showing circuits.

Has been to some unaffiliated dressage, coming home with scores of 70%+ at both Intro and Prelim level. Sure to climb the ladder with more work.

Loads and travels on trailer or lorry. Very easy to have out and about on your own. Will stand on the box waiting all day if needed.

He's generally a cheeky chappy, that's fun to have around. He is pretty easy to do in all ways, although I couldn't say what he would be like for a novice, as he's only ever been ridden and handled by experienced people. We will be sad to see him go.

Has been out to a few hound exercises and Autumn hunting through September, so fit and ready to go. No major rush to sell, so we will keep him going and find the absolute perfect home for him.

He does mildly suffer with Mallenders & Sallenders and CPL (like A LOT of cobs these days!). We easily manage it with a correct diet, plenty of movement, and regular clipping. If this is a major problem for you, please do not waste my time.

Based in Newport Pagnell, Bucks

Tack & rugs potentially available by negotiation

Please PM or call 07969 875803 for more details. I am generally very busy so please leave a message or WhatsApp and I will get back to you.
