Quiet, kind and level-headed
Genuine and straightforward
Confidence-giving ride
Safe and sensible without being lazy
She would be ideal for a novice rider, mother-daughter share, riding school, or someone looking for a reliable and enjoyable all-rounder. At the same time, she is nice enough for a more experienced rider to have plenty of fun with.

She is the type you can trust and enjoy every single day.

Riding & Performance

Holly is a pleasure under saddle.

• Many RDA groups throughout the UK are currently searching for suitable horses and ponies of various sizes, ages and abilities.

RDA Groups Across the UK Are Seeking Exceptional Equines!

Each offers a 5* welfare-focused home, professional care, and a role helping disabled children and adults experience the joy and benefits of equines.

Our equines are fit, responsive, healthy and athletic — taking part in a wide range of exciting activities:

• Riding
• Carriage Driving
• Vaulting
• Show Jumping
• Endurance
• … and more!

From smaller, forward-going ponies to strong, weight-carrying cobs — RDA groups need equines of all types, sizes and abilities.

WHAT WE LOOK FOR:

• Calm, sensible and people-friendly horses
• Sound and healthy equines able to adapt to a varied lifestyle
• Horses happy in the school, hacking, or working in open spaces
• Animals comfortable with different handlers and occasional mobility aids
• Steady temperaments but with enough athletic ability to stay fit and engaged

Each RDA group has their own needs, but temperament and trainability always come first. All the equines undergo a Pre-Purchase Examination.
