Around 5 years ago I decided I wanted to make my dream a reality and buy my first horse. All I knew is he had to be big and he had to be black and then I found Romeo.

5 years later, Iv broken horses in, competed and won competitions, helped other horse lovers get into horse riding , attended weddings where brides and grooms have enjoyed Romeo being a part of their big day.

I'll try to keep this as brief as I possibly can, as my horse journey with the help of Romeo has been very very busy.

He stands at 16.2 maybe slightly taller but certainly not shorter, he taught me how to ride 5 years ago when I had no clue, hes amazing with the farrier, he loads with no fuss, there is nothing that really spooks him.

Hes been to weddings with cars revving, flairs going off , fireworks going off and drums blasting, all whilst the groom who's never sat on a horse before makes his entrance to the venue, ( have video and pictures for anyone that wants to see.)

In terms of riding he is happy to go anywhere and do anything, whether its a walk, slow pace or gallop all you need to do is ask Romeo and he will oblige.

He has been imported from America according to his passport, coming from a harness racing breeding line but I have never harness raced him in my ownership.

He is ride and drive, iv only driven him 2 or 3 times (also have videos)

In my ownership we have been on countless hacks, through woods, city streets, day or night. He is really good with other horses, rides in the front back or middle with no issues.

Ideally id like him to go to a happy hacker home, hes safe as houses, Iv taught many of my friends to ride on him, from walk to gallop, and my 8 year old son also rides him ( not very well but he walks him around the yard/ fields.)

There is no way I can fully explain how safe of a horse Romeo really is in this ad, so please get in touch so I can share more videos, and information.

The ONLY reason for sale is that I compete in a sport called tent pegging, and although he is fully trained and has won first second and third places before, he is a little on the bigger side so is not really ideal for the game.

Happy Hacker and low level Schoolmaster

  • Easy and uncomplicated horse
  • Ideal mother/daughter/son share

  • Easy and uncomplicated horse
  • Ideal mother/daughter/son share
Crafty Web (Winston) has been a successful novice event horse and showjumper. He is TB x WB with his grandfather being Louella Inschalla. He is now 18 and therefore I feel that he is looking for a lovely hacking home / lower level riding club type home, jumping up to around 80cm.

PLEASE READ THE ADVERT IN FULL before making contact. Located Trowbridge in Wiltshire, BA14. Sorry, no loans, LWVTB, offers on price or payment plans. This is a lovely horse for the money and the right home is more important than price which is why he is sensibly priced.

A proper school master who knows his job. He is an easy uncomplicated ride and is ready to come down the levels to teach someone the ropes at the lower heights and for someone who enjoys their hacking. He was evented by a professional event rider and therefore he is well schooled on the flat and can do shoulder in, leg yield, direct transitions etc and has balanced paces.

In his previous home he successfully did Tetrathlon with two teenage boys. He would make a great mother/daughter/son share and is ideal for someone looking for an older schoolmaster on a budget.

He is easy to take to shows and on the ground and does not need riding every day. You could leave him 6 months and jump straight back on and go for a hack.

I bought him nearly 2 years ago to get me back jumping after a few years off and he has done the job. I have done riding club, group clinics and lessons and some competitions at 80/90cm. He keeps a nice rhythm to a fence without being strong. I have also cross country schooled him.

I have recently had his hocks medicated for the first time to get him ready for sale after I turned him away from January to March due to lack of time. I just felt that his hocks were a little stiff on coming back into work but I have not had them X-rayed and therefore I feel he is more suited to jumping up to 80cm.

He hacks alone or in company and I lead other horses and ponies from him. He is great with buses and trucks coming past him but can spook at a crisp packet or a road sign, particulary on his own. This involves him going past with his eyes on stalks but I simply turn his head away from the object while he walks past.

He also crib bites and wears a collar although he keeps his weight on well. He is best suited to a home where he can live out most of the time. He can nip a little when doing rugs and tack but generally is a very sweet boy in the stable and loves fuss, attention and affection.

He turns out with mares and geldings in a herd or is happy out with one other. He is happy to be left on his own when my others go out hacking without him and does not stress in his stable being left alone but happily eats his hay.

He is only for sale as I have three others and I am struggling for time and therefore he does need a bit more fittening work as he is only in light work at the moment. That said, he would be ready to go out for some nice hacks and low level competing and he does not take long to get fit.

He is easy to clip, shoe and I travel and load him in an Equitrek trailer with no issues. He previously travelled and loaded well in a horsebox. He is not suitable for hunting.

Good trial facilities with school and showjumps and you are welcome to hack alone and in company.

No novices please. Although he is good he is still a competition type horse and I would prefer a balanced rider who is light in their hands.

Up to date with teeth, vaccinations, back and shoes. Tack available separately at an additional cost.

The vidoes are of me jumping small fences due to my nerves having not jumped for several years. They show that he is easy at the lower levels.

Skeldon Moor Jasper – The Ultimate Gentle Giant

  • Safe and sensible
  • Good ground manners
£11,500 OVNO

  • Ridden and handled by children
  • Safe and sensible
  • Good ground manners

It’s with a heavy heart that I offer Skeldon Moor Jasper for sale. I’ve had the absolute pleasure of owning this special boy his entire life, having brought him home as an 8-month-old foal. He’s grown into the kindest, most genuine horse you could wish to meet.

Jasper is a true gentle giant – kind, patient, and full of character. He lives out 24/7, is a good doer, and generally an easy keeper. Broken to ride later in life, he’s had a relaxed upbringing and now enjoys a steady pace. He’s still green in the school, but shines as a happy hacker – confident alone or in company.

  • Ridden and handled by children
  • Safe and sensible, though strong due to his size – not suitable for complete novices
  • Good ground manners, stands perfectly to be groomed and fussed over
  • Bombproof in traffic, though he may spook at rattling noises behind him (e.g. trailers)
  • Needs shoeing every 8 weeks for road work – managed barefoot on soft ground when not in regular work
  • Loading requires patience – he loads with training but we don’t currently have a lorry on the yard to maintain the practice

Jasper is a confidence giver, a steady companion, and a much-loved member of the family. Finding him the perfect 5* home is my top priority – he deserves nothing less.

Located in Swanmore, Hampshire

Serious enquiries only, please – this is a very special boy
