Ned is a compact little horse with a good amount of bone and lovely temperament. Ned is by Peters Brook a registered Irish Cob part bred out of a dam by Willie Joe, a unique mix of Irish blood that would make a nice show hunter/ working hunter pony type.

Ned has been an amateur’s horse for most of his life enjoying pleasure rides, hacks, beach rides and all the fun activities in between. He has also done a good few low level competions both showjumping and dressage.

In the school on the flat ned has started to progress nicely, due to the nature of his previous homes schooling has not been the top priority, now in a professional environment being schooled he has proven to pick things up quickly, works in an outline, has three nice paces. And would certainly excel as an event/working hunter horse.

Ned is happy to pop round a course of fences, he has a nice tidy jump and is not fazed by fillers etc. He is currently jumping 80/90cm with ability. He has also done a some cross country fences and loves the variety.

Ned hacks alone and in company, he has seen farm and village traffic and does not get hot up in open spaces. He would hunt as he is mannerly and very well behaved.

Ned is a lovely horse to be around, he is happy to live in or out, goes on the walker and is simply a very easy horse to deal with. He is good to load, clip, shoe, catch etc.

This is a sad sale with a genuine reason. We would love to see Ned in a home where he can continue having lots of fun and compete. For sale on behalf of a client.

  • A genuine, straightforward horse with a lovely attitude

15.1 Appaloosa mare 8yo. A kind, easy mare with genuine talent. She has three flashy, quality paces and a balanced, easy, natural jump, never phased by fillers. She is well educated and straightforward to ride.

Her owner has done a fantastic job giving her excellent manners, making her a pleasure to have around the yard and to handle. She is good to shoe, load and clip, and is easy in all aspects of daily management.

On the flat she works in a natural outline, moving in a rhythmical, correct way.

She is bold over cross-country fences, despite not having done a huge amount of XC to date.

She has been hunting, where she was excellent – not strong or silly in any way.

Great to hack alone or in company. She is sensible in open spaces, does not get silly when cantering, and will happily pop ditches. Goes first, last, or sits quietly in the middle of the ride.

A genuine, straightforward horse with a lovely attitude and plenty of ability for someone to enjoy and progress.

Seeking my next perfect pony! Must haves between - 14.2h and 15.2h, between - 6 and 15 , although would change for the perfect one.

Needs to be within 2 and a half hours of Derbyshire. would go further for the perfect one

MUST be safe around traffic , farm machinery , farm animals ( as I live on a farm ), happy hacking , schooling , fun rides , smaller jumps , local shows - showing , dressage etc

All year round turn out on private land , living with a connie gelding and mini shetland gelding ( can be in separate field)

Massive stables roughly 4 times bigger than an average one ! videos an pictures can be provided

Lots of land to hack around.

My preferred breed is a chunky traditional Connemara just cause I love the breed so much my previous Connemara gave me so much but he is retired now , but would consider something else that fits the bill.

I previously had a bad accident with my last pony on the road with a tractor and my confidence is very low , it's very important that my next pony is very safe confidence giver. I am aware no horse is perfect but I don't want anything sharp or spooky and nothing that bolts , rears or bucks , strong etc
more woah than go

I would prefer no health issues but if it's something slight I will consider.
more must haves are good loading , good for farrier , dentist , for leading and for the vet.

I have had weekly dressage lessons for over a year and then monthly lessons with jumping the year before , spent a lot of time hacking ,before my accident. I have had horses for many years and was a competent rider until my accident where I lost confidence.

I am aware this is a lot to ask for but I know somewhere they must be one for me :) genuine 10 star home awaits thanks !

Arlo is a great part of the yard – super friendly, kind-natured and very easy to have around.

He is happy living in or out and on his own or with other horses.

To ride, Arlo is an absolute pleasure. He is very much more woah than go, making him a comfortable and steady ride.

Arlo recently attended an unaffiliated showjumping show, and behaved perfectly! The busy atmosphere didn’t phase him at all, happy in the busy warm up and easy to handle in between.

He loves hacking and is rock solid in open spaces and in traffic. He hacks happily alone or in company and stands patiently while opening and closing gates.

Arlo has been ridden by many riders of different abilities, a super confidence giver - ready to get out and have some fun!

Harri is a high-quality horse with correct bone and limb, offering an excellent model for a successful career across a variety of disciplines. He is a horse of substance with outstanding breeding that needs no introduction.

Sire: Bannvalley Pride of Midnight
Dam: Dame de Flandres
Both sire and dam are both Class 1 Irish draughts. Both with extensive and proven competition records within their respective disciplines for themselves and their progeny.

Harri is a pleasure to manage and handle. He is easy in and out of the stable, straightforward to load and travel, uncomplicated to clip, and good for the farrier.

He has completed a small number of in-hand shows, where he has consistently demonstrated an excellent attitude and correct behaviour in the ring.

Under saddle, Harri has enjoyed a varied and correct education. He has spent time hacking and attending arena hires and is now schooling well on the flat and has started jumping. As a larger horse, he can be green at times, but he remains honest, willing, and eager to learn.

With his temperament, conformation, and trainability, Harri is a horse with the potential to excel in whichever discipline he is produced for.

This sale is not a decision made lightly.
Serious enquiries only.
Open to vet.

Please note: Harri has a small sarcoid on his sheath, which is superficial in appearance and has caused no issues.

Currently on sales livery with excellent trial facilities.

He has the sweetest, most gentle temperament and is looking for his new human to give him lots of cuddles and fuss!

He is newly broken after being started late last year so is still green under saddle. He has been with us for a few weeks schooling now and has come on leaps and bounds in the school, is now walk, trot, cantering and popping a small fence. Smurf has also hacked out alone and in company where he has seen traffic.

The perfect home for Smurf is a happy hacking, low level all rounder home. He isn’t the finished article and still needs his education continued but is very willing and genuine.

Smurf is good to handle on the ground, groom and wash, happy living in or out. Up to date with his vaccinations. He does a thorough pin on his hock which is purely cosmetic & does not affect him in any way & is reflected in his price. You can’t notice it under the hair & has never caused a problem.

Seen on sales livery in lingfield Surrey, home is more important than price

Sad sale of much loved member of the family for the past 5 years (from rider age 15 to 20 yrs) as rider moving away for a job and will no longer have the time he deserves.

Hacks alone and in company, great with heavy machinery etc. Previously known to nap but hacks out 3x a week very happily with no issues now. Can be buzzy/bouncy in big groups but just showing he is keen!

Great manners on the ground: Good to load, shoe, clip etc. A really lovely character to be around.

Very well developed flat work, always scoring in the high 20s/low 30s in dressage and competed up to Novice.

Reliable and very easy show jumper who basically is just a point and go. Show jumped up to 1.10m but most comfortable up to 1m.

Previously evented up to BE100, the last two seasons competed successfully at GOBE90, due to the hard ground.

Underwent surgery on his left hind deep digital flexor tendon in 2022. Been back and busy in full work still loving the job. Due to this he will not pass a 5 stage vetting hence substantial price reduction for a truly lovely, quality horse with lots of fun to be had. Vet report available.

A loving, knowledgable home is crucial, and more important than price, for this much loved boy. Please no time wasters as already a difficult decision.

Please text first if interested and can then arrange to call if wanted.

NOTE: I’m now away for 2 weeks so won’t be able to take viewings until after that (first week of February)!

DYLASAU AMAZING ACE - Approx 16.3, 5yo (2020), full ID gelding (Great Grandsire Flagmount King).

This gorgeous big guy is an absolute labrador to be around and handle, he just loves fuss and his 'humans'.

He is a big, quality type. A very solid build with a leg in each corner. That said he is athletic and a forward thinking horse to ride.
Ace was bought as a foal and his owner has done a super job bringing him up. He is mannerly yet inquisitive. He is only recently under saddle with us and is hacking out very well and goes greenly around the arena. He is light on his feet for his size (regularly offering a snazzy medium trot!).

Although he is an absolute Teddy bear, and is really taking to ridden life with ears pricked and a game attitude, he is generally forward off the leg and can have very normal baby moments so IS NOT currently suitable for a novice.

Would love to pop a pair of shoes on, and clip him out, but he is potentially going for a little break if not sold - so come and meet Mr Fluffy!
He has loose jumped, showing nice athletic ability, and he took himself down the line both ways unaided - he is fairly bold 

We backed his mother some years ago and she was fairly spicy to begin with but turned into a fantastic hunter - he is fairly similar with 'nicer' spice!

He has the potential to be an absolute 'Jack of all trades', RC/ showing/ grassroots across all disciplines, hunting etc. A absolutely lovely family horse, but he is still learning and needs competent/ an experienced home to solidify good basics into this fantastic horse to ensure a great future and longevity.
In a years time he's the ultimate unicorn amateurs search for.

For sale on behalf of his owner who will be very sad to see him go. A good home a priority.

Open to viewings, trainers and vettings.

Talented, Genuine & Full of Character – 11yo 16hh Thoroughbred Gelding Jack — a smart, kind-hearted gelding who’s been a real joy to have around. He’s a talented all-rounder with plenty of ability and a big heart. We’ve had so much fun with him, and now we’d love to find him a confident, experienced rider who will enjoy him as much as we have.

Jack has a great record both at home and out competing. Most recently, he placed 2nd in a large combined training class, jumping a lovely clear and confidently tackling 12 cross-country fences. He’s been round BE90, takes everything in his stride, and is bold and genuine with ditches, steps, and water. Cross-country is definitely one of his happy places — he’s brave, straightforward, and always tries his best.

He’s also a pleasure to hack — happy to go first or last, alone or in company, and has a lovely balanced canter in open spaces. On the flat, he works nicely in a soft outline and listens well to his rider. He’s been to plenty of showjumping outings too, with placings at 90cm and 1m, showing both scope and carefulness over his fences.

Jack is a real gentleman to handle — easy to catch, shoe, load, and take out. That said, he’s a sensitive soul who thrives with a confident, kind rider who enjoys a horse with a bit of personality. He’s not a novice ride, but in capable hands he’s endlessly rewarding and great fun.

If you’re looking for a genuine, talented partner to enjoy both at home and out competing — someone you can really build a partnership with — Jack could be your perfect match.
