But pippa is amazing to hack and to flat, she has a lot of potential in dressage and showing

Hasn’t got a lot of experience, out competing but she has a lot of talent and confidence and is looking for a new home.

Patrick is a genuinely unspoilt, rising 4 year old gelding with a wonderful temperament. He is a true “dope on a rope” to lead and handle, and a pleasure to have on the yard. He is currently measuring at 15.3hh and has 10.5” of bone.

He happily lives in or out, and turns out sensibly with both mares and geldings. Patrick has loaded and travelled on a wagon several times without issue, and has been walked out in traffic and seen farm machinery.

Patrick is unbroken, ready for someone to produce their own way. He has a willing nature and steady outlook on life. With his temperament, he could excel as a future allrounder, safe hack, hunter, or even a therapy/RDA type with the right training. He’s a total blank canvas ready for someone to bring out his full potential.

A super friendly, easy going cob who will be a lovely project for someone wanting a genuine youngster with a bright future ahead. Cobs of this size, stamp and nature are increasingly hard to find. Patrick combines height, bone and presence with an exceptionally kind, easy going outlook.

Photos don’t quite capture him, and you’ll need to look past the winter woollies, but he’s going to mature into a seriously smart cob.

Stunning 2017 15.2hh grey Irish sports horse (green book recorded breeding) mare. This lovely girl has beautiful paces and a light, soft snaffle mouth. She feels bigger than she is, with a deep body and long neck. She has done plenty of hunting, riding club activities and showjumping.

Lola has done lots of dressage, she has lovely paces and a great movement.

Lola is a bold XC as she is SJ.

She’s brilliant to hack whe on her own or with others, doesn’t care about surroundings / heavy traffic and doesn’t change in an open space, her little rocking horse canter remains the same everywhere! She’s a kind girl to handle / have around and keep.

Open to any vet or trainer, she’s a super easy mare who will do any job, and cater for all riders. Such a safe, sane and fun allrounder £10750 Trial period available WhatsApp message for videos

Seasoned hunter, allrounder, riding club / fun horse. This very handsome 2016 16hh Irish (green book full recorded breeding) bay gelding is the real deal, there’s nothing he cannot do!

Apollo produces a beautiful test, he’s been in the dressage boards and schools beautifully, he has a lovely self carriage, comfortable and flashy paces and a soft snaffle mouth, he’s an excellent ride and isn’t remotely complicated in any way shape or form.

Apollo has done plenty of hunting, cross country, and showjumping. Hacking wise, Apollo is great in open spaces, good with heavy traffic, machinery etc, and he doesn’t change if he’s on his own or out with others. He’s a nice type, and will jump off any stride and will absolutely help you out if you get it wrong, he’s most certainly a confidence giver over fences and oozes scope, doesn’t look at coloured fillers / rustic fences etc, just the type to take you and look after you.

He’s a friendly lad in the yard and stable, confident and cuddly, easy to have around and a laid back personality.

Apollo is a true allrounder, he’s done a little bit of everything throughout life and is a nice quiet, yet talented ride. He has lots of hunting experience with three seasons under his belt but is equally happy doing riding club stuff.

DO YOU HAVE A HORSE OR PONY SUITABLE FOR THE RDA?

WANTED ON LONG TERM LOAN / PURCHASE

Ref #: 249896
  • If you think your equine has what it takes, please contact one of the groups below
  • If you think your equine has what it takes, please contact one of the groups below

One of the main issues that RDA groups face is finding an Equine to suit the needs of the participants in their group.

We are regularly contacted with offers of Equines that are ‘the ideal RDA horse or pony’ when actually what is ideal for one group may not be for the next. We are trying to move away from the stereotypical view that RDA Equines are elderly and somewhat static, our horses and ponies need to be fit, healthy and athletic to cope with the lifestyle in an RDA group.

They can range from smaller, forward going ponies to weight carrying cobs and can take part in a range of disciplines from Riding to Carriage Driving, Vaulting to Show Jumping and Endurance.

If you contact an RDA Group about your Equine please be prepared to fill in an Equine Initial Interest Form which will ask you many questions about your horses’ temperament, health history, experience and lifestyle. Many groups will prefer to have an equine on trial to make sure they are suitable for the job.

For long term loans and purchases they will also be required to have a Pre-Purchase Examination.

If you think your equine has what it takes, please contact one of the groups below.

Midnight is the sweetest and easiest horse to have on the yard.

She has competed dressage up to elementary and has 235 BD points but spent the last few years having an easier life as a broodmare.

She’s looking for a more varied life now but still capable of competing low level.

She’s pops round courses of 80/90cm and thoroughly enjoys it, jumping fillers and water trays.

She hacks alone or in company.

Happy to live in or out, turns out in the field with anything.

Has a few sarcoids (hence price). If she was smaller I’d defo be keeping her.

Offered as a semi project on behalf of owner.

Lotus Biscoff is a 16h 9 year old, dun fully regisistered ISH mare with super breeding by the famous Tullyabeg Fusion who is a top eventing staliion. Shes a gorgeous girl whgo catches the eye where ever she goes with her golden colour. She is a lovely quality stamp with a nice depth of girth a nd substance to her body. She has good conformation, clean limbs, is blemish free and straight moving. Shes a very friendly girl who likes people however she is a sensitive soul under saddle and likes to form a one to one bond with her rider.

Lotus has three super smart paces and works nicely on the flat. She has real potential to excel at dressage with the right rider as she has a brilliant hind leg action. She is a forward going sensitive ride who likes to get to know her rider. She is sensitive to the leg and likes a very small leg aid, she also likes a balanced rider who has some feel. She definitely needs a confident experienced rider who can ride quietly and who is used to riding more sensitive horses. A wobbly nervous rider would worry her and course her to shoot forwards. When she knows and trusts her rider she gives you an amazing feel. She is currently ridden in a snaffle with a nice soft mouth. She is very good to mount- stands nicely at the block. She is also not at all spooky. She doesn’t buck or rear, if worried she will scoot forwards and for this reason needs a rider who knows what they are doing. I have been riding her for a couple of months now on behalf of her owner and I really enjoy riding her. So for the right rider she will be very rewarding to work with and go far. She has done some unaffiliated dressage with a previous owner who found her to be a good forward going ride.

She has jumped in a past home and showed scope and talent over a fence. She wasn’t at all spooky at fillers ect, she was very bold and forward going. She hasn’t done any jumping for a couple of years due to her owners choices. I also haven’t jumped her as I have taken her back a step to work on the basics of flatwork. She definitely has the breeding and the potential to show jump and event but is not ready to go straight out and do this as she will need to form a bond with her rider on the flat first in my opinion. I have a video of her jumping a full course for anyone who is interested to see.

Lotus is good to hack both alone and in company. She is very good in traffic including lorries and motor bikes. She is more relaxed out hacking than what she is in the school. She is nicely forward going and will literally pass anything. She has been used to give less experienced horses a lead past scary objects. She went straight past a scary fire in a calm manner. She has been on pleasure rides which she loves and is so much fun. She would be very well suited to someone wanting to do lots if hacking and perhaps le trec and endurance too as she would go all day.

Lotus has a kind friendly temperament. She loves people and will make someone an amazing best friend. She is a good to handle in all ways. She is good to shoe, clip and load. She lives in and out and is happily turns out with mares and geldings. She is very quiet in the field and gets on well with all horses and ponies. She currently turns out over night (weather permitting) on her own next to other horses and comes in during the day. She is very sound and healthy.

She will make someone a dream horse and form such a strong bond with her person. Finding the right person is very important to us. Strictly no nervous or novices riders. She is only offered for sale as she is too much for her current owner who is more of a happy hacker leisure rider. It’s a sad sale as her owner loves her on the ground and also enjoys hacking her but Lotus can shoot off with her in the school which has knocked both of their confidence. Lotus is doing well again in the school with me and is now ready to find her forever person as she really deserves this. Would also suit a natural horsemanship approach with lots of ground work. Priced at £7,950 to reflect that she is a semi project. She would be double this price if she was anyone’s ride. She would be ideal for an experienced rider who has the time to put into her but not a 5 figure budget to buy a horse of her calibre in a special colour. Based near Huntingdon Cambridgeshire.

Lovely, kind mare. ID x Connie, rising 5.

I bought Donna Feb 2025 completely untouched and have brought her on slowly and professionally since then. She has been to arena hire outings, xc schooling and attended an endurance ride. She has absolutely not been rushed but has done a little of everything you would expect for her age.

Super to hack, goes alone or in company and leads off another horse. Happily goes first or last.

She is not the sort that needs riding everyday and has a sensible and sane attitude to her work. She is a true allrounder type and I believe she would also make a fantastic hunt horse.

She rides very nicely on the flat, has a soft mouth and is never strong, always in a snaffle. She really enjoys jumping and is proving to be careful. She has jumped round a course of coloured fences and seen small xc jumps.

She will live in or out and turns out with mares or geldings. She was very good to clip.

Donna is a really intelligent mare who is a very quick learner and always tries her best. I have a real soft spot for her, five star experienced home sought. Please call for more information.

Gio is a 9-year-old, 16hh Brandenburg Warmblood gelding who is super attractive, well put together, and a real pleasure to have around.

He is a lovely dressage prospect and an extremely safe and sensible hack, both alone and in company. Gio enjoys his work and has a naturally forward, enthusiastic way of going, so he would be best suited to a confident rider or a mother–daughter share where riders appreciate a horse with presence and personality. Would also move well enough for the show ring.

He has done some jumping this season; with results up to 90cm, however, this hasn’t been his main job as he can become a little over-enthusiastic, so he would be happiest focusing on flatwork and hacking.

Gio is very kind and genuine, never nasty, and always tries to please. He is vice free and easy to have around — a real yard favourite.
• Kind and personable; easy to catch, lead, etc.
• Loves fuss and cuddles
• Clean limbed, no lumps or bumps
• Good to stable or live out; mixes well in a paddock
• Loads and travels well; happy to stand on the lorry at competitions
• Excellent to shoe and clip without fuss

A smart, quality horse who will make a fun and rewarding partner in the right home.

Fit and ready to start making memories. Open to any vet or trainer.

Finished racing sound and healthy. She’s had some downtime and is now ready to get cracking with a job. She's a straightforward ride, has good paces and will make a nice all-rounder. She’s just come in from the field and had a little walk and trot under saddle, and she was quite happy. Tally hasn’t done any schooling, show jumping or XC - she is very much a project.

Injury and vice-free. She does have a small sarcoid on the inside of her offside hind.

Good to load and travel, good with the farrier and vet.

Looking for an experienced home that will give her lots of time and love. She wouldn’t suit a novice due to being a young ex-racehorse. Has been led out from another horse recently to start coming back into work. Available from the field due to not being in full work. Please, no timewasters.

Deja Blue

16.1hh 2012 Bay Irish sports horse gelding by Bonmahon Master Blue .

Charlie as known by his friends on the yard - very sadly offered for sale.

He has been on the yard from a 4 Yr old . His owners have very limited time and so have come to the decision to find him a new home to have lots of fun.

He has done some dressage and local jumping, more recently lots of hacking and schooling/jumping at home.

He joined regularly in weekly private, group lessons and pole sessions.

Full history known he was brought originally off the breeder in Ireland and came to his home now.

He hacks well and good in traffic.

He is very careful jumper and not fazed by fillers etc. He is nicely schooled on the flat and established changes. Snaffle mouth all times. No stable vices. 

He is a well bred competition horse who still hasn't reached his full potential who perhaps wouldn't be for a novice or nervous rider... can occasionally have the odd cheeky moment but soon moves along with his job.

Very special home wanted for special boy!

Honest advert for a very loved horse

Earl is extremely loved and will only go to the right home. He is only for sale due to my lack of time and that I’m also going travelling this year.

Earl has the potential to make a really lovely fun all rounder for a confident experienced and patient rider, I believe he would also make a nice mother daughter share. He does however get irritated at kids being silly around him so he wouldn’t suit being a family horse with young children.

He is NOT a child’s pony or a novice ride.

Earl has been with me for the past 9 years. During this time he has had KS surgery and PSD surgery to his hind legs. I took a lot of time rehabbing him through this, his KS surgery changed his life for the better. Earl will not wear back boots, this developed post surgery. He doesn’t actually need to wear back boots so the stress that it causes him is very unnecessary.

Ridden - Earl would make a lovely little project for someone. He went for schooling post surgery to Sophie Seymor, he really enjoyed the variety of work with Sophie and came back absolutely amazing ready to progress with his schooling further.

Unfortunately due to my lack of time he has been out of work for around a year, he is now unbalanced in the school and needs a confident, quiet, experienced rider. He has no malice, but he does let you know when he’s finding it difficult.

Although Earl has spent the majority of the year turned out, he was absolutely foot perfect when I dragged him out for a horsey holiday around Delamere September 2025. He was perfect on the roads, past livestock, we even ended up on the Gruffalo trail and riding under zip lines - I couldn’t fault him one bit. We haven’t hacked solo for a while but he does hack alone or in company, he just needs reassurance from his rider.

I also recently broke my wrist ( not horse related ) and still hacked him with my arm in a cast, he was perfect.

During Earls time with me, we have been on plenty out outings. He travels like a dream and there is an easy knack to loading him. We’ve been to arena hires, somerford farm ride and of course our holiday. He also traveled amazing for the 5 hour journey to Sophie’s yard.

On the ground - Earl has amazing ground manners, he is very easy to handle and will stand for a chat on the yard all day. He loves to be scratched, he dishes out kisses all day! He is very clean in the stable and has no stable vices.

Earl is a very good boy to clip, for the dentist, for the farrier. He is up to date with everything.

Plenty of videos and photos available on request to genuine enquiries ??
