Viking has done a bit of everything, hunted with a previous owner, fun rides, pub rides, dressage, show jumping, hunter trials, masterclasses, hacks alone or in company and lives on a working farm so has seen plenty of farm machinery.

He is more whoah than go but loves to jump and will take you into a fence. He knows his lateral work well, works in a consistent outline and will do a nice test and has been out competing with me. He has a cracking, jump and is nimble over a fence, currently jumping 1m with scope. He will give anything a go, however he is not for a novice due to his size and can have the odd spook.

Viking is excellent for the farrier, dentist, physio, saddler, clipping, any vet visits and to load. He is up to date on shoeing, dentist, vaccinations and worming. He can live in or out, will stand in on his own all night. Can be left for days or weeks and still get on and behave.

He does have some vet history that I am happy to disclose and discuss with any possible buyers. This doesn’t affect him in any of his current job.

Someone who is looking for a weight carrier or a horse that can do lower level competing would suit him perfectly.

Honest advert as this is really difficult sale but I am no longer in a position for a horse due to time and struggling with my health. Full wardrobe can be provided upon negotiation.

"Pink Carana" is a low mileage 16hh KWPN Striking Bay Roan, Dutch Warmblood mare with a lovely temperament and super markings. She's a really nice horse to have around and nothing phases her and she is super chilled to tack up.

She has 59 BD points at Prelim, Novice and Elementary and has scored over 72% in her Elementary tests in her younger years.

She has been professionally schooled and is very quiet to hack and does not fizz up at all in open fields and she looks after her rider. She has also bred a nice foal in her younger years.

She loads and travels well in a trailer or a wagon and is up to date with her jabs, teeth, physio and feet.

Pink has never jumped as both her owners have only been interested in dressage but she has done some pole work.

She is the type of horse you can leave for a few weeks and then get back on and she's still the same.

She does have some additional health needs which will be fully disclosed and this is reflected in the price. She comes with a Fairfax Bridle and Black Country Dressage Saddle.

Sad sale due to my own health issues and a recent disability diagnosis for my son.

Genuine advert for this beautiful sweet mare.

Bought over from Ireland as a second horse. Wanted an Allrounder to hack, pop jumps, go to local clinics and just have some casual fun on.

Sadly we aren’t a partnership match, she needs a more calm and quiet rider (I’m mid 40’s and a bit sensitive and emotional). If I could keep her for groundwork and cuddles I would. She would thrive in a 1-2-1 home, currently she is on a busy yard.

She follows me in the arena on the ground, lunges well, comes to call, stands to be tacked up.

Ride wise she tries and is very genuine. Will be a super horse with the right person. Needs to see the world with someone who has more experience in that than me.

Previous owners have had her out doing XC and she had hunted with an older gentleman. Also used for hacking out taking dogs for walks.

Currently lives out 24/7 and was stabled at night previously.

I can’t stress enough she hasn’t done anything wrong, I personally know I need something different and want to do the right thing by her, it’s a bit square peg round hole.

Up to date with vaccinations, dentist and farrier.

Videos are available for her and has a 5 stage vetting certificate from June. Genuine enquiries only for her.

Freddie is a stunning 9yo, 16.3hh bay gelding, bred by Juddmonte and by top USA stallion Quality Road; registered as Donate with full history known from a foal.

The quality of his breeding is clear to see, as he is a great example of a classic TB with lots of bone, good conformation and visually very impressive. Freddie ran a handful of times on the flat and in 2 P2Ps in Ireland and was just too slow and not made for racing.

We have been retraining Freddie since we purchased him from Ireland in 2021. He is good to hack alone or in company, good to catch, shoe, box etc. Well schooled on the flat, competed in UA Dressage, Arena Eventing, UA ODEs, Show Jumping and enjoyed XC schooling up to 90cm.

Freddie has plenty of scope with potential to go up the levels in time; he is still green so currently most comfortable popping 80-90cm fences and courses, where he is developing confidence and really starting to take you into a fence. Freddie won his two arena eventing outings this spring and is qualified for the 80cm National Arena Eventing Championships at Elland Lodge next year. He has done some low level UA eventing. He has also undertaken some RoR showing, winning championships at local shows and we feel he could really excel in the show ring.

Freddie is not your typical TB, in that he is definitely more of a kick than pull type and is ridden in a snaffle and cavesson at all times.

He would be perfect for a competent rider to do a bit of everything with and have some fun on, or to be more focused down the eventing, dressage or showing route. Whilst Freddie is very laid back most of the time, is still green and takes confidence from the rider, so only a knowledgeable and competent home with experience of TBs for this lovely chap.

Happy to live in or out. Up to date with teeth, feet and vacs, fit and ready to go.

We have put a lot of time and effort into this kind and genuine chap but personal circumstances force this very difficult sale, please call Nick on 07951231613 to further discuss.

Dixie - 16.1/2h ISH

Dixie is such a beautiful and striking lady visually paired with the most adorable nature. She adores cuddles and a fuss and is so kind and polite on the ground. The easiest horse to deal with. Dixie has a very wise head on young shoulders. Not a sharp/fizzy/silly type. Very low maintenance to keep - isn’t the type that needs riding everyday.

Dixie has super potential in any sphere.

She schools sweetly with a beautifully balance and rhythmical canter with great transitions, established walk to canter. To jump she is unbelievably honest and goes on any stride and will take a miss. Unfazed by fillers etc

Stands beautifully to be mounted, hacks alone or in company. A very classy lady with a huge future ahead. She’s quiet enough for a novice but smart enough to be produced into whatever you fancy, may that be eventing, riding club, dressage, happy hack.

I cannot emphasise enough how easy and kind she is on the ground and to deal with in general.

Recently passed a 5 stage vetting.

She has come from a loving home where she was shared/competed by two teenage sisters.

Gentle 'Jolly'

15'3 Sports Horse x Standardbred
4yr Old Mare

A professionally broken correctly started stunning example.

Well put together Jolly presents herself with charisma and charm. A loving mare who loves to please.

Been in the same home since a youngster she has wanted for nothing and the world is now truly at her hooves.

Jols has competed at local level dressage and was said to be a star in the competition environment. She's a real trier who puts a lot of effort into what's being asked of her.

Although naturally gaited she will walk, trot & canter in the arena.
comfortable straight forward ride. With further production could really be quite special on the flat.

Has popped some basic poles with us. I mean she's not ready to compete at badminton this season but she's willing to give the jumping her best shot

A sweet heart in the stable. Kisses and presents herself for a good bum scratch. Will let you muck out around her although can and will act as a rather large speed bump while she tries to 'help'

Good to catch and happy to turn out in a mixed herd.

Hacks alone and in company she's proving to have a big heart as we tackle recent road works adjoining our stables. She's patient with waiting to traffic light changes and of course she inconsiderate drivers lacking patience (we all get them)

Loads and travels well in a side loading lorry and a trailer.

No known issues, ailments or vices.

What a pleasure to introduce this boy to the market! Well put together, model material , 8yo, 17.2hh, Irish gelding
Breeding recorded
Passed a five stage vetting at time of purchase
Clean limbs , fit, shod, vaccinated and ready to go and have a summer of fun!

Oscar is with me on sales livery due to owner’s personal circumstances changing. This is a very reluctant sale and she would very much like to stay in touch

Kind and easy for anyone to handle on the ground. He’s a real people horse who loves fuss and attention. Oscar will stand there all day long for you to groom, bath , tack up etc! He’s the most delightful horse to have around. So easy and low maintenance , will love in or out, come in or out first or last …. Just the genuinely easy type that everyone wants to have around. He has just been shod and was outstanding for the farrier. Up to date with everything and never wanted for anything. Shining from the inside out. Perfect to load, you wouldn’t know you have him in when travelling. A pleasure to take places, great with kids and dogs. Just a superb boy

Oscar floats on the flat! A real school master type in the arena. Had the most attractive paces with the softest mouth. A real true to type , leg on each corner. Works beautifully and consistently on the bridle at a squeeze of your fingers. He really likes to work and has been very successful inside those white boards. He would take a novice in the school. Ridden by teens and a nervous child with us. I’ve been using him to give lessons to my yard girls and he also great at lunge lessons. Easy up and down the transitions and always in a snaffle mouth.

While I don’t think he’s going to go and jump 1.20’s, Oscar is certainly capable over smaller fences. Regularly competing and collecting ribbons up to 85cm at unaffiliated shows with scope for a bit more. He never says no , extremely forgiving , always helpful and never offended. Never string or silly to a fence. I find him very push button and easy. Jumps XC as well as show jumps and is a genuinely keen to please , safe and sane allrounder.

Hacking is one of his favourites. Currently giving all my breakers a lead out hacking. The same and reliable type who’s not particularly spooky , will go first or last , alone or in company , easiest horse to ride on the yard by a long stretch! Outstanding mannerisms in opens spaces. Happily popping logs with the kids and loves a stop at the pub. Then again, don’t we all? Great at ride and lead and stands perfectly to mount and would give someone a lot of confidence

During his time with current owner Oscar has attended several riding club camp weekends , all riding club activities , unaffiliated shows , hacking, funrides, beach rides and hunting. You name it, he’s given it a go already!

A super confidence giving horse who won’t ever let you down

Has a slight pigeon toe that doesn’t affect him and some routine medical history all to be disclosed to serious interest. I will be vetting homes closely as promised his very upset owner nothing but the best for him

Comes with tack
Delivery available

Come along and let him do the talking, he sells himself!

Wish  - 16hh Approx, 15yr old Unregistered Warmblood Type mare.Passported / Microchipped

A hard to come by sort who is easy on the pocket and beautiful to the eye.

Wish is currently being advertised as a summer project for someone to bring back into full work or also suitable as a field companion / broody

Said to have had a successful allrounder ridden career as a youngster - Wish has come to us following the recent passing of her elderly owner and family are sadly not 'horsey' to keep her on. The right home is important for us for this reason.

Until recently she had lived out 24/7 as a field ornament with two other mares. The most strenuous part of her day was finding her mum for her daily dose of carrots and scratches.

Since coming to us she's accepted separation from the field mates very well. She's now living in stabled with no vices. Munching her Haynets and watching the world go by.

She's seen our farrier for a trim and was willing and accepting.

We have started gently introducing her back to tack. She's been sat on and ridden around the yard and in the small indoor arena at walk at trot.

She's green but trainable. Please no completely novices if looking for a ridden project as she will require the investment of some time to get the best out of her.

Sadly we don't have enough stables, staff or hours in the day to continue her education with us but she will be worked with every day with us until her new family is sought.

Wish has previous bred a foal and we are told she was a great mum

Loaded and travelled well to us on a trailer.

Wormed to date and deloused

No illness, ailments or medial conditions
No loans or trials sorry

Party piece, aka Jelly - 17yr old cob x 15.1hh mare

Jelly is a well school horse with lovely paces, jelly is forward out on a hack with good breaks, she is foot perfect in the school but requires more leg like a typical cob!

Jelly has done most things, in previous homes she has show jumped, XC, hunted and done fun rides all with ease. Jelly has with us been out to clinics and been ridden by children, teens and adults.

Jelly is very bomb proof (literally as lives on military ground and has police firearms training nearby) she’s not fazed in traffic, with dogs or people.

Jelly has a few on the ground issues, we are able to handle these but want homes to be aware and we are happy to fully disclose these. she is a big girl and knows this! as with most cobs food is the way to her heart but with a confident handler she is great. Jelly will stand on the yard to be groomed and absolutely loves the hose!

Jelly lives out 24/7 in a mixed herd with us, this is her preferred living conditions, she has been stabled in previous homes. Jelly is much loved by our other horses.

Jelly passed a 5 stage vetting last August and we are open to vettings

Betty Boop is a 15.1h, 7yr old mare with the kindest nature for all of the family to enjoy

She is easy to do in every way, loves attention, is good to shoe, box, clip, vet etc. She will live alone or in a herd, she is not mareish.


Out hacking Boops is anyone’s ride, she is not spooky or silly, alone or in company. She is a forward ride and will go up front or behind. She is extremely safe and has taken novices out around Cirencester park and pub rides.

Boops still needs to further her education in the school ; however she is very willing to learn and shows fantastic potential in this area. She has lovely straight paces and a “can do” attitude with everything you ask of her,

While she is safe and sensible for the more novice rider to enjoy out hacking (and the basics in the school) she is no kick-along plod, she is a lovely responsive yet sensible ride for the more experienced jockey to enjoy and have fun with too,

Since owning Boops, she has come on so well in a short space of time. She works well over poles and is starting to make a lovely shape on the flat and jumps a fence with ease.

Classy 16hh, 10yo, AES mare - ‘Ravens Sagacious Glory’
Clean five stage vetting from this year
No lumps or bumps / injuries / ailments / nor vices

Kind and empathetic little mare on the ground. Outstanding mannerisms. Never any bother to clip, shoe, load , travel, catch, handle etc - she is absolutely golden. Handled and ridden daily by a 13 year old

Turns out alone or in a mixed herd and is never any bother. Comes to call and is easy to have on any yard. Always settled beautifully at stay away shows

Loves to go on beach and fun rides

Hunted on an extremely busy ladies day with The Shropshire - over 85 mounted , her first time on the field and she was outstanding. Jumped absolutely everything , stood patiently, unpaused by the hounds , never once strong , went on all day like an absolute diamond and gave me the best days hunting I’ve ever had in my life

Sage is absolutely stunning on the flat. A breath taking mover who moved for fun! Could do with some tweaking here and there but dressage isn’t my thing so consequently, I’ve never made it hers! Has a big trot paired with a a smaller , adjustable , uphill canter. Has done unaffiliated stressage on the odd occasion I’ve been blackmailed to take part and always come away with a thrilly. Auto changes installed. Forward mare who likes a still rider but equally likes to be ridden and feel your leg , she’s not for a percher, she likes a rider. Very obedient up and down the transitions

Jumping - well where do I start? My word this mare can jump!! She has a huge very scopey jump and is absolutely bold as brass. Picked up numerous placings at cricklands in big and quick classes , I’ve never not had a place on her at unaffiliated up to 90cm. Is now ready to go BS. Jumps open water trays , pops bigger fences at home. A touch low mileage for her age only due to previous owner circumstances. This mare would skip around a 70cm or go a jump a fox with the right jockey. Very easy to ride around a set of fences and although very careful, is very forgiving. Happy to jump around steady or you can put your foot in the gas if you’re as competitive as me who can’t possibly just go for the steady clear!

Jumps XC with scope to burn. She loves that job! Bold over hedges , drops , all rustics etc. never strong not silly and has plenty jump. She’d be competitive out eventing should new owner desire , big solid fences aren’t really for me!

To hack out - well I’ve never had a mare like this in my life to hack out!! So so reliable and bold in all types of traffic and open spaces. She goes alone or in company. The kids ride her to give me a lead on the breakers. She’s ridden daily along a 60mph road and she doesn’t flinch. Stands at the mountain block etc

Too many show venues , funrides, etc to name
All riding club activities at Torfaen Riding Club

Most recent venues are The David Broome Event Centre and Ponderosa Equestrian Centre

All history is known
Had a foal which a friend of mine still has. Was an excellent mum and textbook to get in foal producing a huge filly with the same desirable temperament

This mare is my own personal horse. I first had her on loan when I was 18 years old (6years ago). I now own her myself which was all I ever dreamed of. However she’s always been too small for me , I have my own yard with lots of paying clients and opportunities as well as another of my own out on the circuit taking so much time. Therefore after much thought I have decided I need to let her go. However I’m in no rush and all homes will be vetted. Open to re vet and x-rays

She’s a mare that needs to be in work , she can be sensitive and although is good as gold she would absolutely hate someone banging around up there! Shes a mare that deserves a nice rider on top.

Until she sells I will start to BS her and will look to show her in some county shows this summer as a worker / riding horse
