Stand out from the crowd


Spyvalley Momoa, 5yr old 14.2 wpb gelding.
Mo is a true star in the making!
After a hugely successful 3yr old season inhand Mo was broken by ourselves and has continued his winning ways ever since. (I think he’s won every ridden class he’s done?) with many wins and championships. Mo is straight, correct, impressive and eye catching.
He is anybody’s ride, and although a solid powerful cob he gives a beautiful light and responsive ride. 100% to do in all ways, absolute pleasure to take out, stands on the lorry all day. He’s competed sj and working hunter and is a real fun all rounder with the looks for the show ring!
He’s up and ready to start the qualifiers. open to vet.
He is easy to do in all ways, a pleasure to have and take out. Same home since a yearling so a special home is sought for this special boy.

Meet splash 4 year old 14hh Irish cob. Splash has the look at me factor with his striking four white socks. He has done a bit of everything, jumping, hacking, cross country this was when he was in Ireland. Splash is a machine out hacking goes first or last.

He is green in the school but this is due to his age and due to never doing it before he come to us. However he does have a willing attitude and willing to learn. Splash does need someone who is confident, kind but also sturn at the same time so that he is able to learn.

We believe when splash finds his person and then they get to know each other they will be unstoppable in any discipline that maybe.

Broken last year he was turned away over the winter to mature and brought back in to work end of January. Since then he has been showjumping, jumping fillers and full courses, a flat showing clinic with a ride judge and arena eventing, which he loved.

This little horse is still very green and a long way off being the full package but he has taken on every challenge with enthusiasm and a willing attitude.

He is now ready for an experienced and competent person to continue his education.

Please no novices, he is a forward thinking fun cob who still needs guidance and his hand holding.

He will make a fantastic working show cob along with lots of potential in so many areas.

Amazing Allrounder Family Pony

13.1hh 9 yrs extremely kind and honest, loving family pony who is looking for the very best of homes where she can continue to give confidence, love and win rossettes for her new family.

A fantastic first or second pony club pony, a real professional in all activities, a brilliant confidence giver to get a child jumping from cross poles to 90cm , she is great both showjumping and cross country and was previously a fantastic hunting pony who has hunted with young children. She is a cracking push button ride, combining “ not too fast “ with equally “ not too slow” and is ridden with a snaffle at all times. Well schooled , and loves doing pairs , Hunter trials, unaffiliated jumping etc, has the scope and honestly to low level BSJA too!

To hack out she is as bombproof as they come, you name it, lorry’s , buses , tractors, farm machines, dogs, bikes , motorcycles, this little lady will not blink an eye ! She is chunky enough to carry a small adult so is suitable for all members of the family.

To handle she is an angel, catch, farrier, travel, bath, grooming. Has recently been used with underprivileged children in very small riding school environment and never stepping a hoof out of line.

Piebald traditional mini cob two year old filly to make 12.1hh+

She is the most adorable little lady who loves a fuss and a cuddle. She would make a fabulous companion and ridden pony once old enough.

She has been halter trained since 1 month old, so she leads, catches, ties up politely. She stands quietly for the farrier, picks her feet up and would stand all day to be groomed and fussed. She is well mannered and has been handled daily since born.

She currently stands at around 11hh, I expect her to make 12.1hh potentially a little more. Her Mum can be seen and she stands at about 13.1hh.

She happily turns out with filly’s and geldings and gets along with everyone that I have put her with. She is happy to live in or out, she is also happy to be first or last to come in or out and waits quietly for her turn with no fuss. She comes to call and is a lovely little person to be around and will be sorely missed.

She is very correct for a traditional cob and has a great amount of mane, tail and feather. She is very striking with two blue eyes and so much presence, she is going to grow in to some horse!

She has a Passport and microchip and is vaccinated for flu and tetanus. She is up to date with the farrier and has been trimmed by the farrier every 6 weeks since she was 6 weeks old. She is up to date with worming and has been wormed in accordance with the current veterinary advice for worming foals and youngsters since she was born.

I am looking for a forever home only please, homes will be vetted.
No time wasters, no dealers, no novices, no loans and no payment plans. She will not be sold unseen.

I have tons of photos and videos so please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

Serious enquiries only.

Based East Riding of Yorkshire

Messages ONLY please, I have terrible phone signal so calls are difficult to hear.

Ruby will turn her hoof to anything and always gives you 100 % whatever you ask of her.

Ruby is well schooled on the flat, and would do very well in the show ring, she naturally carries herself well and certainly catches the eye , she has a Scopey jump for a little coblet, she is currently out competing at 60cm ( qualified for Cricklands first time) and is ready to step up , she has had double clears and been placed at every show we have taken her to.

Ruby loves hacking and is confident on her own and in company, she is good in open spaces and not at all bothered by any traffic,

Ruby has been out hunting and proved to be extremely mannerly , standing quietly at the meet and in between lines, and not getting silly or strong.

Ruby is good to catch, loads, and travels well in both trailers and lorrys , she is currently barefoot , she is a little unsure about being trimmed, so just needs a patient farrier who she can trust, she is a kind and loving little mare that just wants to please , she is up to date with everything and ready to go and have fun with a new family.

Bill has been with us since he was 6 months old and in that time he has done SJ , XC , dressage , showing and fun rides where he will go 1st or last.

Bill is rhythmically to a fence and is a super easy fun ride. Hell take the smallest of children and is never silly or strong happily jumps any filler, tackles ditches and goes in water. would go straight out to BS or BE.

Good in all traffic as we live by a busy main road. He's also good to bath, clip and with the farrier and will stand to be brushed and fussed for hours.

Not stable vices but he's better lead in a chiffany.

This is a very sad and difficult sale but unfortunately we no longer have a rider for him and he would be wasted in the field.

Annie - 15.2, 5 year old (2021) Irish cob mare.

Annie is the epitome of a supercob, she has so much to offer and is such a lovely kind soul that only aims to please.

Backed and ridden away last summer and mainly hacked. Annie was imported from Ireland in November from the breeder and is ready to go on to her next adventure.

3 good paces in the school and surprisingly naturally balanced for a horse of her age and type. A very comfortable canter and not big and bouncy. Hacks alone and in company, loves to box up and go for a hack to explore the countryside and pop a log in the woods. She’s a lovely forward thinking brave sort that wants to do the right thing.

Just started popping a few fences she has a lovely jump and is really honest.

She really would go on and do a variety of jobs whether that be exploring the countryside, fun rides, riding club, hunting. World is your oyster.

She has been a real pleasure to have and I ride her last every day so that I always end the day on a good note with a smile on my face! She is still learning so wouldn’t suit any very novice riders.

Good to catch, bath, load, groom, tack up. Clipped for the first time recently and was a bit worried at first but then started to enjoy the scratchy bits so settled down and stood quietly. Did have a set of shoes on but is now barefoot as she really didn’t need them her feet are solid. She thought the farrier was a bit scary but again, just young and needs reassurance.
