Ouzo – 16hh 9 year old TB gelding by Monsieur Bond. A stocky 16hh gelding with a lovely attitude who genuinely enjoys his work. Working nicely on the flat as shown in the raw, unedited schooling video, and is a straightforward, willing ride. Confident over coloured poles with plenty of scope to produce further.
Barefoot with good, strong feet and up to date with everything. Small splint on a front leg so not suitable for showing, however causes no issues – passed a full 5 stage vetting in 2022 (certificate available). Out hacking he can be joggy and tense but never nasty. With a confident rider we feel he will be fine.
Weaves at feed times and when being turned out but settles well with routine. Genuine, likeable type ready for his next home. Delivery available. Message to view.

Nessie – 16.2hh Scottish Dutch Warmblood Mare (2008). A fabulous, big, stocky mare with a flashy, eye-catching way of going. A genuine schoolmistress type who is well produced, snaffle mouthed and knows her lateral work, holding a correct and consistent outline. She works nicely on the flat with three smart paces and also pops a nice jump. Bred by a show-jumping stud so has plenty of ability to turn her hoof to a variety of jobs.
A straightforward, sensible mare who would suit a confident novice or someone wanting a quality all-rounder to enjoy. She has hacked down a busy main road and been passed by lorries without a care, showing a very level-headed attitude to traffic. Loads and travels well with no issues.
Recently clipped and has a brand new set of shoes. Sold from the field due to lack of time, so priced accordingly with her price to increase the more she does. Delivery available.

Frank, a 16.1hh, 10 year old ex-racehorse, (TB) gelding. He raced five times, with one win. RoR eligible. Frank is a smart, athletic ex-racer with loads of potential for someone wanting a quality project. He raced 5 times and won once, and is RoR eligible.
He has had the last 8 months out of work but should be easy to bring back into full work with a consistent routine. He has already started lunging and is settling back into a job nicely.
Frank has previously been in a retraining yard where he showed a nice jump, and he gives the impression he will make a lovely eventing type or a fun all-rounder for someone wanting to produce their own. He will need front shoes. Now back in work. Need gone by weekend due to change of circumstances.

Halo is beautifully mannered and incredibly gentle, a real sweetheart to handle both on the ground and under saddle. She has been hacked out by my three year old child and takes everything in her stride. She's soft, sensible, and always tries her best to please. She has enjoyed some cross-country schooling, where she absolutely loved the variety and showed plenty of scope and enthusiasm.
With her easy-going temperament and willing attitude, Halo would make a wonderful all-rounder, ROR, or riding club partner, ot team chaser. 16.1hh, 6 years old. Hunted. Imported from France. ROR eligible. Exceptionally gentle and soft to handle. Hacked out quietly with a child on board. Brave and honest over XC. Shown successfully in hand and ridden. Barefoot, lives out.
Halo is a rare find — a genuine, kind young mare with a lovely nature and a bright future ahead. West Yorkshire. Comments will not be followed if seriously interested and want to view message me. No more time wasters.
