Rising 3yo buckskin gelding currently standing around 15.1hh to mature approx 15.3/16hh. Shabby really is the 3yo everyone is looking for, and cannot find as a 5yo. The ultimate user-friendly competition allrounder with all of the quality you could want from a competition horse without the quirks and built to last.

Shabby is a very correct model with excellent conformation, limbs and feet with a good mix of substance and blood and a very attractive head. He is a real head-turner with great presence and perfectly brings together the strengths of both native and warm blood. Shabby has a fantastic, user-friendly temperament with a kind, gentle presence and loves human company. He has lived in a herd his whole life, apart from when stabled or barned over winter, and is very well socialised, playing well with others. He has the movement, athleticism and breeding to excel in any and all 3 of the main disciplines and the temperament and trainability to do it on weekends from his owner's back garden.

Shabby is a super mover with plenty of action. He covers the ground well and catches the eye. Has loose jumped only 3 times but has shown himself to be very bold, scopey and trainable with plenty of potential to work with and climb the levels either showjumping or eventing. Shabby has seen traffic and farm equipment and is generally bold in nature when dealing with new things.

Shabby has the most fantastic temperament. He is friendly, curious, kind and loves being played with. Shabby would quite happily stand there all day and just lick you from head to toe if you'd let him! He is super trainable and very willing to learn. He has lived out unrugged in a mixed herd but will also happily be stabled, he has settled everywhere we've put him. He ties up on the yard and leaves his friends to work without issue. He has had his feet and worming done regularly but has not been over-handled, he has been left to mature and be a horse.

By the super popular and versatile Ynyslyns Orlando, a prolific producer of quality youngstock with exceptional temperaments and versatility. Out of Irina, a Dutch Warmblood from a proven performance damline including maternal siblings competing in dressage, showjumping and eventing up to 3*. Irina's 2 oldest offspring are competing in showjumping in Holland and Poland. Her 2025 foal was sold at a day old.

Shabby really will be someone's horse of a lifetime and is exactly the kind of horse we set out to breed. For the right person he will be your best friend and take you anywhere you want to go, whether it's competing in a national final in the sport of your choice, attending training camps or hacking out with the kids on the weekends. Shabby does not melt in the rain, has good solid Welsh feet that you can shoe or not, can live most of the year on nothing but good grass and isn't likely to lose his head if you can't ride for a couple of weeks because life has taken over. Direct from the breeder where sire and dam can be seen.
