  • Excellently behaved away from home
  • Done beach rides and hunting
  • Good to hack alone and in company

Romeo has a heart as huge as him. He is so loving and gentle on the ground.

Last year I sent him to will moreton for 6 months of show production. Over the winter I took him hunting and too the beach and more recently I have been competing unaffiliated dressage on him.

Very easy straightforward ride. Hacks alone and in company. Good to shoe, box clip.

Sad sale but he is being completed wasted due to lack of time.

Price reflects flat sarcoids as you can see does not affect him in any way and is significantly reflected in his price for a horse of this calibre and nature.

Based Elsenham, Essex.

Very sad sale of this absolute gentleman. He has the most amazing placid temperament and a massive heart.

Easy to do in all ways - easy to handle, shoe, clip, load, travel, compete, with vet and dentist. Never sick or sorry. Vacc and teeth up to date.

Figgy is 100% honest and has for 3 years been a dream horse for his middle aged, novice rider. I bought him from a friend who had bought him as an unbroken 3 year old.

Always in the ribbons at dressage shows - qualified for Quest Regionals 2021, 22 and 23, Quest Nationals 2023.

Figgy loves to hack and do fun rides and enjoys a bit of jumping. He has been XC schooling.

Figgy has nowhere near reached his potential as a dressage horse. He has the most amazing paces, balance and trainability.

Training at home at Novice / Elementary level but has only competed up to Prelim due to his novice rider.

He has established lateral work; leg yield, shoulder in, counter canter and has an extremely expressive medium trot.

Ideally I would love him to go to a competition home so he could fulfill his potential.

Stunning Irish Cob Gelding, rising 5. 155cms.

This chap has the potential to make a fab show cob or hunter. Amazing temperament.

Arthur has been xc and sj schooling and has proven himself to be brave and honest over both coloured and natural obstacle, with lots of scope over a fence.

A really lovely person to do in and out of the stable. He hacks quietly both alone and in company. Snaffle mouth, loads and travels quietly in a trailer.

Arthur at this time in my opinion would not be suitable for a complete novice due to his young age.

Open to vetting,trainers etc…

Very reluctant sale of this stunning young man, putting the feelers out....

5yrs in May, 13.1 eyecatching blagdon traditional chunky boy with a lot of potential, being wasted at the mo.

I've had Bodhi since a yearling and have made sure he has wonderful manners and a treasure to handle, started slow, not rushed, and taken everything in his stride.

Good for barefoot trimmer, loves a massage and physio and always good for vet/dentist. 100% to clip and loves a fuss and cuddle.

Ridden work is very basic. Basics in the school, hacks out alone and in company, confident leading and cantering in company and alone with no fuss, long lines and lunges well. Does take a bit, but mostly ridden bitless due to typical cobby mouth.

Would suit a showing/pony club family as in right hands will go far. Hes a flashy boy, stunning markings, and lovely paces. Has a hell of a jump on him too!

He's an absolute cracker and will only go to the best possible home, I'm in no rush to sell and won't be happy unless he's with the perfect home to give him the most amazing life.

Only issue, he's a raptor with fencing! So need mains electric or very well maintained battery one to keep him the right side of it.
