'The Dutchman '

16hh Weatherbys Reg
ROR eligible / Classy contender
16yr gelding

A perfect example of an allround little super star - working correctly stunning eye catching sort with the temperament to match.

Well put together Dutch presents himself with charisma and charm. A massive uphill movement that's guaranteed to catch everyone eye. A loving gelding who always aims to please.

Been in a professional environment since a youngster he has wanted for nothing and the world is now truly at his hooves to continue to enjoy the big world as his new owners best friend.

Previously Dutch has been a successful racehorse with a smashing bloodline going back to some real racing stars.

Retiring from racing sound and injury free Dutch has competed at local level showjumping and was said to be a star in the competition environment. He has recently been around a little course with masses of potential to work his way up. Hes proven willing, forward and keen to learn.

Dutch is a real trier who puts a lot of effort into what's being asked of him and enjoys everything and anything that involves engaging his brain and hocks.

Very nicely schooled on the flat he will walk, trot & canter in the arena. He will drop into a natural soft outline. And makes for a pretty impressive outfit between the white boards. Picture prize winning Warmblood ... on a budget!

Whilst he's not ready to compete at badminton this season he's certainly willing to give the jumping his best shot as well as the XC fast forward brave and fun fun fun . lots of TBs go on to make top class eventers and there is no reason he can't start some low level events right now

A sweet boy in the stable. Kisses and presents himself for a good bum scratch. Will let you muck out around him although can and will act as a rather large speed bump while she tries to 'help' sometimes Dutches brain can make him a little
'Full on' but it's his get up and get on with it attitude. Always waiting for what's next

Good to catch and happy to turn out in a mixed herd. Happy to go out but equally loves to come back in. A routine lover as most with great history's of doing a job

Hacks alone and in company hes proving to have a big heart as we tackle recent road works adjoining our stables. Dutch is patient with waiting to traffic light changes and of course she inconsiderate drivers lacking patience (we all get them) As previous is is forward and happy to walk out getting the job done without being silly or strong

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

Snaffle mouthed all times with us

No known issues, ailments or vices.
No complete novices as he is a blood horse and I think he would be better suited to a more experienced home. Looking to get out about and have a summer of fun

Stunning, sweet 16.1hh Black Thoroughbred Gelding, 12 Years Old

  • Gelding
  • 12 years
  • 16.1 hands
  • Exceptionally genuine
  • Proven competition record
  • Temperament that is second to none

A rare opportunity to purchase a talented, versatile and exceptionally genuine horse with a proven competition record and a temperament that is second to none.

This handsome 16.1hh black Thoroughbred gelding has been owned by an 83-year-old lady for the past five years. During that time, he has taken her successfully through the dressage ranks, proving himself to be kind, reliable and wonderfully straightforward both at home and out competing.

He was the winner of the Retrained Racehorse Dressage Championship Final in 2023, achieving an impressive score of 72.3%. This success, together with his consistent dressage results, demonstrates both his quality and trainability.

Very sadly offered for sale only because his owner wishes to continue progressing competitively and feels that a purpose-bred warmblood may be better suited to her ambitions of competing at Silver League level.

Max is around 16hh, 4 yr old ex racehorse. He ran mostly on the flat with 1 run over hurdles. He retired sound and happy as he was just too slow on the track.

He is a kind and easy going horse. He doesn't buck, rear, spin, bolt, jigjog, or do anything nasty.

He has started his retraining and will make a great all rounder.

He has done some basic schooling on the flat and has been on a couple of fun rides proving to be well mannered and easy to handle.

He is good to hack alone and in groups, he isn't strong or silly and is good in open spaces and on grass. Always snaffle mouthed.

He is unfortunately for sale early because I don't have the time to put into him to finish producing him.

By First impression

A real smart type with good movement and plenty of limb. A type to suit many jobs!

She has such a lovely sweet temperament, very laid back to handle and deal with.

Shes just started being broken, lunging nicely with a roller on and just started long reining. Shes been a superstar with everything we have done so far and sure will be really straight forward to get on.

She shows amazing talent over a jump!

We will continue to break her, her price will increase the more she does.

  • Irish
  • Mare

  • 16hh Approx. 2013 Chestnut Irish Mare
  • Talented Allrounder | Showjumper | Eventer | Dressage Prospect

Ginger is a lovely quality Irish mare with a fantastic attitude and a wealth of experience. She is a forward-thinking, enjoyable ride who would suit a confident rider looking for a talented horse to enjoy across a variety of disciplines.

On the flat, Ginger works beautifully with three fluent paces and seamless transitions. She is a naturally forward ride and would certainly produce some lovely dressage tests in the right hands. She is not suitable for a novice rider, but for someone who enjoys a horse that goes willingly off the leg, she is great fun to ride.

Ginger is a brave, straightforward and careful showjumper. She has previously jumped up to 1.10m with her former owner and has all the attributes to continue progressing. She is honest to a fence and gives her rider plenty of confidence.

Her previous owner described her as the ultimate all-rounder, having turned her hoof to just about everything, including hunting, showjumping and general riding club activities. Unfortunately, she has proved a little too forward-going for a nervous rider, so we are now looking for a knowledgeable home where she can thrive with someone who enjoys a horse with a bit of engine. She is not sharp, silly or whizzy, she simply likes to get on with the job and can cover the ground well.

Ginger does make a respiratory noise when working. She has been fully scoped by our vet, with no clinical abnormalities found, and it is believed the noise is due to a slightly asymmetrical nostril. This does not affect her performance in any way and is reflected in her price. Veterinary report available to view.

A genuine, talented mare with plenty still to offer and the potential to excel in a variety of homes.

Searching For A Family Friend / Allrounder To Enjoy Hacking, Pleasure Rides, & Low Level Adventures

  • Full Up 14.2 - 15hh. Age 6 -14 yrs
  • Must Be Confident Hacking Out & Passing Farm Vehicles
  • Lightweight Cob / Connemara Or Similar Type
I am searching for a trustworthy, best friend type to welcome to our kind, knowledgeable, family home. Our horses are treated as part of our family & they receive the absolute best of care. I would be happy to provide references & to keep in touch.

I have ridden for several years & consider myself a knowledgeable & capable rider. However, due to ongoing health issues with my horse, who is now retired, I haven’t ridden as consistently in more recent years & so I am no longer as confident as I once was. Therefore, I am seeking a laid back, best friend type, who does not need riding most days to remain safe & sane (realistically, I will generally ride 3-4 times a week).

We will be enjoying fun hacks from home, attending organised pleasure rides, forest trips, XC schooling & some clinics. I will at times want to hack alone but will also hack alongside my young daughter on her (sometimes quirky!) horse, so it is especially important that I find a level-headed, trustworthy type who I can depend on. Due to us going out in our horsebox regularly, I would like to find a horse who is good to load / travel &, most importantly, who remains calm & polite to handle & ride in different environments.

Our horses are kept at home with us & have all year turnout (stabled overnight during winter). I would love to find a gentle natured, polite character & a true best friend type.

We live in a rural area & although we generally meet very little traffic, when we do, it is often likely to be a tractor/farm vehicle. Therefore, it is hugely important that my new horse is confident around this type of traffic.

* I do appreciate that no horse is ‘perfect’ & that ‘bombproof’ does not exist & I am open to compromise, but please do just be honest about any possible known ‘issues’ as I will not buy unseen & would want to have any potential horse vetted *

We are based in Norfolk so ideally looking for something in or around East Anglia but would travel further if plenty of info, videos/photos could be provided beforehand. I have a sensible budget & very relaxed & loving forever home for the right horse.

15.1 Appaloosa mare 8yo. A kind, easy mare with genuine talent. She has three flashy, quality paces and a balanced, easy, natural jump, never phased by fillers. She is well educated and straightforward to ride.

Her owner has done a fantastic job giving her excellent manners, making her a pleasure to have around the yard and to handle. She is good to shoe, load and clip, and is easy in all aspects of daily management.

On the flat she works in a natural outline, moving in a rhythmical, correct way.

She is bold over cross-country fences, despite not having done a huge amount of XC to date.

She has been hunting, where she was excellent – not strong or silly in any way.

Great to hack alone or in company. She is sensible in open spaces, does not get silly when cantering, and will happily pop ditches. Goes first, last, or sits quietly in the middle of the ride.

A genuine, straightforward horse with a lovely attitude and plenty of ability for someone to enjoy and progress.

Smart looking 16.3 bay warmblood gelding by Cornet Oblensky, 8 year old.

Has nice active, correct paces and a scopey jump. After a late start through no fault of his own he is beginning to turn into a smart competition prospect.

He schools very nicely on the flat, is snaffled mouthed, easy off the leg and is capable of producing a smart dressage test. Naturally as his breeding suggests he has a scopey jump. However he’s not overly confident in this discipline so feel a more varied home would suit him better.

Has been XC schooling which he loved and would potentially hunt. Hacks alone and in company.

He is definitely one that takes confidence from his rider, so he’s not a horse for a nervous or novice rider. He would suit a varied life with someone wanting to go out and have lots of fun.

He is smart looking, has a loveable character, is easy to do on the yard and doesn’t need working every day.

Good to shoe, clip, load. Fully vaccinated and up to date with worming, teeth, physio etc.

Now ready to go and find his person

Excellent trial facilities. Based East Sussex

Price negotiable to find him the right home

Monty is looking for a new best friend/forever home .

Someone who enjoys hacking , a bit of schooling and the odd riding club level dressage .

Monty is a well bred ex event horse , he is a very well schooled /educated relaxed chappie but due to some medical issues that will be FULLY disclosed he would suit someone experienced and balanced wanting to have a quieter life, due to those medical issues Monty would not suit a home wanting him to jump or wanting him to be out every weekend competing.

Monty will produce a super test and thoroughly enjoys going out training and competing, Monty also enjoys hacking and is forward thinking and confident out on his own and in company.

Monty would benefit from a smaller lighter rider and to be preferably kept on flatter fields as ours are very hilly along with our hacking so there is no let up, we feel this will benefit his long term well being .

Monty loves being out in the field , he wouldn’t be a horse to keep in all through the winter but it also happy to come in ie during the night or in during the day what ever your routine maybe .

Monty has no vices at all and is exceptionally easy to have around . Homes absolutely will be vetted as we really don’t want this lovely boy passed around.

This is a heartbreaking decision for Monty’s owner so your suitability for him is priority.

Beautiful 15.1/2hh Irish Mare, 6y/o Dora for sale.

Dora is the most sweet natured and kind horse. She is a real good-doer.

Dora is broken and riding away, but still green as she is a late starter, for this reason she is not suitable for a novice. Dora is more woah than go, and requires her rider to push her forward. She is coming along nicely, but like with any green horse can be a bit unbalanced.

She has started jumping, and is showing real potential and scope. She is very confident and not a stopper!

She would make a lovely low level all rounder. Very safe and sensible to hack alone or in company.

She has been out hunting and to dressage/sj shows where she behaved impeccably.

Dora does not like clippers and has to be sedated.

This sale is truly heartbreaking so please no time wasters, or joyriders. Home is more important than price so offers are considered.

Please note Dora has no recorded breeding but was sold to me as a Connemara X. My guess is she is an ID X Connemara.

Honey - 4yo Chestnut Thoroughbred Mare A Real Head Turner!

Based Hereford

This stunning 4-year-old chestnut ex-racehorse mare has continued to progress beautifully since retiring from racing and is now ready for the next step in her education.

Since arriving, she has thrived with a steady, sympathetic introduction to her new career. She has gained condition, strengthened significantly, and is developing into a lovely young riding horse with a fantastic attitude.

She is now hacking confidently through the forest both alone and in company, proving sensible, relaxed, and unfazed by her surroundings. She remains excellent in traffic and is happy in open spaces, making her a genuine pleasure to ride out.

Her schooling has progressed steadily, and she is now working regularly in the arena. As expected of a big young horse, she is still developing strength and balance, but she is willing, trainable, and improving with every session. She has also started pole work, which she thoroughly enjoys and is taking in her stride.

Alongside her ridden work, she has been doing plenty of long-reining, including over varied terrain and up hills, helping to build her strength, balance, and understanding. She has embraced every aspect of her education with a willing and genuine attitude.

She is green, as any 4-year-old should be, but she is straightforward, kind, and exceptionally easy to work with. She has never shown any malice and is one of the sweetest mares to have around the yard. She is easy to handle, loves attention, and genuinely wants to please.

She has all the presence, quality, and “bling” to stand out wherever she goes, combined with the temperament that makes producing a young horse enjoyable.

A lovely blank canvas with an excellent foundation already in place, she is now ready for someone to continue her education and put their own stamp on her.

A fantastic opportunity to acquire an unspoilt young mare with all the right attributes to make a quality riding horse.
