Very quiet to ride and handle, Hacks out on his own and in company, very good in the heaviest of traffic. He has been ridden in woodland, open tracks and is the same where ever you take him.

He loves his hacks and will go in the school but still a bit green, He is good to lunge and long rein so i am sure it would not take much to teach him to drive as does not mind what you do with him, not spooky in any way.

Good to handle, He will stand all day to be groomed and cuddled, he falls asleep and loves the attention .

He is bare foot. picks his feet up easily for you. Good to clip.

For more details please feel free to give me a call

Would measure in at very top of 149cm. Very bold, scopey jump! Been xc schooling and pc hunter trial, been to a couple of sj shows, just schooling and went round nicely last year.

Loads and travels well.

She has super paces and moves beautifully, with a very balanced canter, not strong, sharp or silly.

Snaffle mouth, not strong. Same family home since a 2yr old and teenage daughter has been producing her this far, so she is very easy and straight forward.

Very sad sale, as rider now gone off to university.

Seen and tried in livery with us at Sheridan Sport Horses on behalf of her owner.

Open to vets and trainers, best home is of high importance.

Videos and more details on request to serious enquires.

Please phone or WhatsApp thank you

Middle aged woman’s dream! Flash without the fizz, really lovely horse and a real good egg.

The kindest and most genuine horse you could wish to find! Super RC/ PC, lovely hack, low level eventer. Chocco has recently been imported from Ireland from a friend, he was bred to event to a good level but he’s a bit too laid back for what she wanted so he’s come to find a new human with less competitive aspirations ( not eventing at top level! He’s more suited to riding club and local level fun)

Chocco has been well produced and works very sweetly on the flat, he is in a happy mouth snaffle for everything and never strong or silly. He has three good paces and a lovely comfy canter. Would do a lovely dressage test and is a very easy ride, one I actually enjoy riding! He is a very steady sort and always wants to please. Would suit most riders and is the one currently on the yard that gets used for baby sitting duties out hacking. Ready to go and do a prelim dressage test now. Chocco is a very cute jumper, he has been jumping round 70/80 cm with us both SJ and XC at home and away. He’s not got masses of scope but should jump round 90 cm in time but would be equally happy with a rider without aspirations who just wants to do things for fun. What has got is the kindest brain and is very willing, he has never said no to anything and canters sweetly round a course of fences without looking at anything staying in a rhythm. Cross country he’s a real gem, again incredibly straight forward and just gets on with the job. He is a real confidence giving type. He would be ideal for someone to enjoy doing everything with at low level on a nice, polite horse who wants to be your best friend.

Chocco is a super hack both alone and in company and has been excellent in all traffic met to date. He loves exploring the countryside and isn’t spooky or silly. He would love sponsored rides and possibly a days hunting.

Chocco’s lovely temperament continues on the ground, he is the easiest horse to have on the yard, good to box, catch ( turns out with anything), shoe, clip. He’s happy stabled or living out. He really is a lovely uncomplicated chap who is always friendly and will be someone’s best mate. He is the type that would suit most riders and would be kind enough for someone with less experience, child coming off ponies etc.

Best home wanted!

Lady has just retired from racing and is ready for someone to put their own stamp on.

Lady does basic flatwork and has three balanced free moving paces. She is still weak but once she has finished filling out along with retraining she will be a lovely type.

She has only ran on the flat so has only just learnt to jump but happily pops a course of cross poles and a small straight without hesitation. She doesn’t rush, she has a scopey and careful jump.

She is a quiet straightforward ride, a total kick along and not strong whatsoever. She is well mannered with a very sweet nature and loves fuss.

She has hacked out alone or in company around open fields & lanes, she isn’t fazed by anything. She is a very easy going person, never buzzy or silly. Happily goes on her own. Lives in & out alone or in company. Good to shoe, box & travel.

No vices, no blemishes, no previous injuries. Not marish.

No loans. No payment plans. No timewasters or day trippers we are a busy yard. Serious enquiries only.

BSS Love On the Rocks, aka Skye is a stunning black & white spotted Knabstrapper X mare. She is by dressage stallion Angelo AF Asgard out of a Fleetwater Opposition dam. Her sire and his bloodlines are successful dressage horses.

Fleetwater opposition was a very talented event & dressage horse himself before retiring to stud and has bred horses that have excelled in all 3 disciplines. She also has TB Java Tiger on the dam side who was one of britains most prolific sport horse sires also with offspring winning in all 3 disciplines.

Skye is 15hh 4yo and has the sweetest temperament and very laid back for a youngster. She isn’t spooky or sharp and is good to handle in all ways on the ground - groom, shoe, turnout/catch, load/travel.

She has only been under saddle a few months so is understandably green but is very willing. She knows the basics in the school - walk trot canter and has started pole work and her first small jumps. Skye hacks out alone and in company and is good in traffic and open spaces. She is not spooky or sharp.

Skye is the perfect winter project for someone to produce or just be someone’s best friend and explore the countryside together, pole clinics, RC/PC, dressage, low level eventing/sj - a true all rounder! She is seen on sales livery in lingfield Surrey

Top Quality Allrounder


Ref #: 386753
  • Superb breeding, talent, and temperament
  • Joey has three correct, balanced paces
SOLD!
  • Connemara
  • Grey
  • Gelding
  • 5 years
  • 15.2 hands
  • Superb breeding, talent, and temperament
  • Joey has three correct, balanced paces
Meet Joey, a striking young Connemara with superb breeding, talent, and temperament. At just five years old, he’s already proving himself as a true allrounder – hunting, dressage, showjumping, cross-country, and hacking.

Imported from Ireland as a 3 year old, Joey has been carefully produced and is a pleasure in every way: genuine, uncomplicated, and versatile. He has been ridden and hunted by his owner, he is great with hounds and will stand quietly at the meet.
He is equally happy out in company or alone riding across open moorland or in busy lanes with farm traffic. Always snaffle mouthed.

On the flat, Joey has three correct, balanced paces, naturally works in an outline, and has already achieved 67–68% in his dressage outings, placing 2nd and 3rd. He shows clear potential for higher marks as he develops further.

Over fences, Joey is bold, careful, and scopey, with correct technique and natural ability, helped by his excellent grade A jumping lines. He isn’t spooky with fillers and takes everything in his stride.

With impeccable manners, Joey is straightforward to handle: good to clip, shoe (N//N HWSD), load, travel, and with other horses and hounds. He is clean limbed and eye catching - would be very successful in the show ring.

This is a quality horse for someone wanting a talented, well-mannered partner to enjoy now while continuing his education. Will only be sold to a 5 star home. Not for a novice purely down to his age.

Mac Dara Duke (Benji) is an exceptional 4yrs Connemara gelding by the incredibly successful sire Manor Duke. He will mature at 15.2hh approx. He hasn’t been rushed and has been given time to mature being produced by a small (very amateur rider) slowly and correctly. He is riding exceptionally well.

Benji has fantastic floating paces and is a natural balanced and comfortable ride. Snaffle mouth.

He is working well in the arena at home, away, dressage, cross country hire and show jumping and isn’t phased by anything. He hacks alone and in company.

He is now competing at 70cm show jumping, videos on request.

Benji is a kind and happy gelding used to children, dogs on a busy yard and handled by non experienced / non equestrians easily enough! He has proven to be sensible with everything we have done with him and combined with his talent, fabulous paces and super conformation he would excel in any sphere from a serious competition home to a Pony Club/Riding Club home or someone who just wants to look good and feel safe hacking around the block!

He is good to catch, load, with the farrier etc. He is only for sale due to an unexpected new job offer and lack of time forces sale - he will only go to an excellent home to continue being produced correctly.

Mav is a cracking young horse. He is green on the flat but is working with leg yields, rein back, shoulder in. He has lovely paces and the nicest temperament to go with them.

He is lovely to ride, can have a week off and get straight back on. Never gets hot or sharp. He is nicely off the leg. He is easy to do in all ways, has popped a couple of little fences. Has cantered in open fields and jumped little logs, has also seen traffic. Could be an event prospect for the right rider.

Mav can have the odd little spook, there is nothing sharp about this he will glare at something and carry on. Has been to shows and seen dressage boards and flowers and not cared, received brilliant comments from the judge.

He will make a cracking amateurs horse for someone to contest all the Petplan’s with as he has no points so can start from scratch with someone, also quality enough to produce up the levels.

He had a full set of very good x rays taken on 16/9. Good to hack/load/shoe/travel.

  • 5 * forever home
  • lovely big stables, all year daily turnout, private home

Wanted Irish draught mare or gelding for light hacking and to be a companion to 18 year old ID mare.

This is an excellent forever home for the right horse who is easy to handle, good in traffic and is ready for a slower pace of life, daily turn out and light hacking a couple of times a week. Must be a nice character with good manners and turn out with a mare.

My mare is a bit lame and arthritic so the friend needs to be happy not to have a job and be low lami risk as they will go out every day. No ongoing foot issues which will prevent being turned out every day in winter.

Will consider a loan or purchase.

I am a lady in my fifties and have owned my mare since she was 6, now 18. References available.

Private home in the Forest of Bowland in Lancashire.

Such a sweet mare with a heart of gold !

A very brave horse cross country and she is really enjoying her jumping! Ditches, water, steps are no problem to her. The type that will happily canter around jumping and then will walk calmly on a loose rein.

Very easy to ride round a course of fences , doesn’t rush or pull but stays in a positive rhythm. Not phased by spooky fillers and comfortably jumping around 90/1m courses.

Ridden in a snaffle at all times , she is incredibly mannerly for a big horse. Has competed at local shows, always in the placings, she has huge presence and a real head turner! Her behaviour is impeccable off the yard, she stands quietly and doesn’t hot up or get silly.

Her flatwork is coming along very well, she is light and responsive without being sharp. She has very good natural balance and would be an exciting dressage prospect!

She has been carefully and slowly produced being mindful of her size. She has the makings of a top class hunter with her easy brain and love for cross country. Good to hack, clip, box, shoe, catch.

This mare will be a real pleasure to own!

Based in Roscommon, Ireland and transport can be arranged.

I have know him since birth and owned him until he was 7 I broke him in. He is a lovely chap lovely temperament and always willing to please.

We did hunt him a bit he was good on the field stood at the meet good with the hounds and jumps everything. He has been around a course of fences nothing phases him like fillers or anything has 3 lovely paces.

In his current home for the last 3 years he has been on a farm so used to all animals and machinery hacks out alone or in company first or last.

I think he would prefer a active home doing a bit of everything. He is low mileage for his age so would suit more a confident experience rider.
