This is a one time advert for a one time price which is not negotiable. If I don't find her the right forever home she stays with me. So please, no offers.

I'm putting my beautiful mare Sapphira ( Sapphy) up for sale but again, only if I find the right person/home for her. She's a very very low mileage beautiful 16.2hh bay mare, lovely looking, very well put together and green passported.

She would give the right person hours of hacking pleasure. She's very forward, and alert and would hack for miles ( fitness permitting)

When I bought her she had come from a home where she had been ridden in draw reins a lot, so in terms of schooling she needs continuous gentle schooling with a patient and compassionate rider to resume consistent contact without the use of gadgets ( which I loathe)

So if that is what you know you would resort to in the event that you can't get instant contact, please look elsewhere as she is not for you.

We've done a lot with her this summer and she has come on beautifully in an outline, but she really doesn't enjoy schooling all that much hence advertising her as a hack. As that is what she truly enjoys.

I bought her with an aim to get back in saddle after a very serious ankle break two years ago, but realistically it's not going to happen, so this is the only reason I'm selling. As my ankle still too weak.

I've had a rider for her all summer and a fabulous instructor and between us all we've done so much with her.

She is currently living out with her HAPPA buddy who is a youngster, and she is brilliant with him.

She's also out with my Pygmy Goats and I can also put her in with my Miniature Shetlands. She can literally be turned out with anything.

She's kind, low maintenance, prefers to live out all year ( with shelter and rugs in winter) and she's also barefoot. Never ever sick or sorry.

I long rein her all up over the moss/ country lanes, as well as lunge her in fields or sand paddock and when hacking she will pass anything. Which includes Alpacas, horses and donkeys galloping, train crossings, heavy traffic.

She might stop once and a while to have a good look at something but once she's weighed it up she is fine, and takes confidence from her confident rider. But would never buck, spin, rear, bolt.

I do not want this gorgeous girl to be passed from pillar to post. I will only sell if I really and truly believe you and her are a match! I would prefer her to go to a private home. But if it's a livery yard then she really needs winter turn out.

She's not a jumper either she just doesn't enjoy it. So I'm selling her as the categories she's advertised in, a Happy Hacker and family friend as that is exactly what she is.

Very good doer also, she lives off nothing.

The price includes bridle, rugs, TWO saddles, one Wintec, and one top quality Ryder Luxe GP which is hardly used and still has the second hand price tag on of £699. This is a VSD ( very slightly dressage) so gives a lovely deep seat. It fits her lovely even when her weight fluctuates so she is sold with everything.

Absolutely NO trials, loans, LWVTB, joy riders, day trippers and absolutely no dealers.

Can be seen lunged, and tried on a hack with me at foot ( weather permitting!)
