  Bella is a brilliant happy hacker, having been used for “tourist hacks” around the Cotswolds for the last 2 years. She can jump but this is not her forte! She has pony raced, done lots of fun rides and some low key dressage. Good in traffic, to catch, box, clip and shoe. She is a snaffle mouth and 9 years oldapprox 14.1hh

£1500 ono

Ella is a gorgeous talented cob who is 100% in every way. 14.1 approx 6 yrs. Fantastic jump and flat work coming on nicely. She has done funrides, XC, SJ, CT, PC, RC, even been in shafts—she is a true allrounder. She is quiet enough to do our “tourist hacks”,but quality enough to be competitive. Perfect pony aside from sarcoids on her udder which appear to be clearing up.  Available after weaning  STUNNING dun and white filly foal born beg July 2011, who is also for sale. To make approx. 15.2hh baby is the most friendliest you will meet, taking after Mum and Dad in temperament. For sale together or at weaning

forsale/minky2.jpg

  13.1hh approx black 6 yr old. Minky has been at the riding school all her working life, and now deserves a private loving home. She is 100% traffic, box, shoe, load (lorry or trailer) and everything else we can think of! She is a snaffle mouth, lovely friendly temperament  and has done some PC, funrides, intro dressage and has a lovely jump potentially, but having been ridden by beginners most of the time she will require a confident rider to move her up a gearand she can be cheeky! She has manageable (full mane and tail can be kept good enough for showing) sweetitch,  hence £1000 to a loving PRIVATE home - she's done her bit and now wants a one to one and have some FUN!

 12hh approx 9 year old Dun mare. Extremely well bred registered Welsh Sec B broodmare "Greenbarrow Serenade" by "Gigman Sandpiper" out of "Gigman Seraphina" (Downland Kruggerand). A sure winner in the show ring, but we just havent got the time -beautifully put together and straight mover. Bred first foal this time(10/6/11) - stunning colt by an equally wellbred TB. Would consider loan to a showing home and split the profits later on down the line.  £1800 for the pair, or will split at weaning

 

Bertie
 12hh approx 7 year dapple grey gelding. Has been a super LR pony for a 4 year old child who has now sadly given up riding. Loads of PC lead rein rallies incl camp last year, Bertie was turned away over winter and recently came here to start working off the lead rein and to be sold. BARGAIN at £500 ono *****SOLD******

MAX

Max is a 14.3 hh weight carrying haflinger. 11 yrs old. We sold him to the first person that viewed him a couple of years ago as we sadly needed to settle a vets bill and he was the most saleable pony we had. When his new owner had to give him up due to a back injury (hers! and not horse related) we were very glad to be in the position to buy him back! Sadly for Max, he is once again the easiest horse we have to sell in order to fund some new stables our yard desperately needs....... he is utterly bombproof, please look at our link for further pictures and his video. He was used before, and is used now for people who have NEVER ridden before to hack around our countryside.....he is THAT safe!  But ideally we would like him to go to someone that isnt a COMPLETE novice, as he is perfectly capable of training humans if they allow him! He has done a seasons gate shutting with the Heythrop, reguarly placed RC level dressage, and has done lots of fun rides - That said, he will plod around the countryside for ever more if that is what you want to do. He hacks alone and in company. He has been seen to windsuck at feed times - very rarely but it has been seen - only ever when stabled......Max has as many references as you would like from beginners to accomplished riders. He can live in or out, 100% traffic, box, shoe, clip, catch etc. Take a gander through the "tourist hack" album on our photobucket links above and below, and you will see Max with a whole range of riders on him. £4250 ono

ODIE

Odie is approx 13.2hh 6 year old coloured welsh part bred gelding. Bombproof in traffic, never bucks or rears, good to load trailer and lorry and good with farrier. He has been well hunted with the Heythrop, done funrides and Pony Club activities. He jumps SJ and XC and his flat work is coming on. Hacks alone and in company
He is NOT GOOD to catch until he gets to know you, and as yet is a pain to mount from a mounting block. He is a very forward and busy pony so needs a relaxed sensitive rider hence bargain price £1500

DOTTY

Stunning 5 year old gelding, approx 13hh. Working very nicely and showing a super jump. Hacking out with children safely and proving to be a right little corker! Dotty is 100% catch, traffic, box, shoe etc. Dotty is not only lovely to look at, he is a truly lovely all round pony. Despite his age he is already proven as a first pony..and is more than capable of being a superstar 2nd pony! I cannot fault him. He is one in a million £2500 SOLD TO THE FIRST PEOPLE TO VIEW HIM

KATIE
Lovely 14.2hh 12 year old mare. Snaffle mouth in all situations, hacks alone and in company. Excellent traffic, shoe, load etc - easy to do in every way. Has done some PC and has promising jump. Super temperament and currently used in RS but really is too nice. Was bought for my son to move onto but sadly isnt whizzy enough for him! Dead honest and genuine mare who deserves a lovely home. Katie isnt the best schooled pony, but is very willing to learn......She goes much better for those that  just sit quietly rather than try to  "fiddle" her onto the bit - sadly, while she has gone well for those that have tried her so far, she hasnt gone so well for the experts that come with them! This is a real shame as with consistent and sympathetic riding she WILL improve no end.....we are currently working on her schooling so that Jo Public will see what we see, but in the meantime she is the most safest pony one could wish for......That said, she is balanced enough she always canters on the correct lead, is supple enough for most school movements, but if you want to go out and compete in dressage right NOW  she isnt for you. For those that want a safe but responsive ride, Family pony, or similar, then you will not go far wrong with her  £3500 ono BACK ON THE MARKET DUE TO UNFORESEEN CIRCUMSTANCES IN HER NEW HOME! Reduced to £2500 including tack for quick sale

Jaz (Seabrook Blue Only Joking) 2yr old dun filly born 21/5/09. Out of Jokers Girl - 16.2hh ISH retired (due to injury) eventing mare. By Bluey of Lemar who is starting out on a promising event career with Jenny Levett. He is by Toby of Whitehawk(Rodega Tobias) and has produced ONLY very nice quality youngsters. Jaz's half sister is currently just starting out on her career, proving very easy to do and as naturally talented as their mother. Jaz is just like her, in that she was born ugly and will probably stay ugly until she is 4 years old! Her owners just turned down an offer of £8k on her...... I cant wait until she is 4 - I have too many to over winter so she is on the market for a meagre £1,500 if she goes before then.

SODA A 3 year old well made bay cob cross. Sire Bluey of Lemar (as per Jaz and picture below). Backed, Hacked and turned away Soda is exceptionally quiet and easy going. Ready to come back in and start work proper - he is going to be one of those superstar quality coblets that can turn his hoof to anything - and do it well, but most of all safely! £2500

forsale/spatsatdeerpark.jpg

Spats 13.2hh approx 11yr old gelding. Spats has been on loan to a family for the last few years and the last child has now outgrown him so is looking for his next home. He has hunted, funrides, all PC activities, pony raced and games. He is very good in traffic and to load. He IS a sensitive little chap having been very abused in his young life so needs an understanding kind home
