16hh, 10 year old Thoroughbred mare. She is broken to ride but has been out of work for a year to have foal.
This mare is as quiet as a mouse. She will stand all day to be brushed and made a fuss of. Kids have sat on her.
She's passported and registered. Up to date with wormer and farrier. She's now ready to go back to work.

Stunning 15.1hh black PRE Andalusian stallion, 14 years old. Proven stallion, great temperament and exceptional manners on the ground and under saddle. Breeds beautiful foals. Huge thick mane and tail. He can cover a mare one day and go out hacking the next. Completely bombproof in every way, I've had an entire roof blow off a building in front of him and he didn't miss a beat.
Well schooled with great lead changes and 3 uphill paces with easy transitions. He passes his brain, looks and movement on to his foals. He would now benefit from quieter ridden work hacking or as a stallion serving mares. He's papered with the Ancce studbook & has full recorded breeding. He has never been graded so could not breed registered PRE foals.
Turns out alone and in company and is respectful of fencing. He is not an aggressive type and will turnout alongside other stallions and is not pushy with either people or other horses but good at his job with the mares. Sad reason for sale. Good home required.

Sophie, 16hh stunning 4 year old (April) Friesian x cob mare. Sire is Hessel, Friesian and mother is a cob. Full history known and sire is owned by me, can be seen. Exceptional markings. Sophie was broken lightly as a 3 year old and then turned away to mature.
She has just been brought back in to start her again after being wintered out, she is excellent in traffic and will go on a busy main road, she is ready to start proper education, has not been rushed or spoilt, almost a blank canvas and will go far in the right hands. She will excel in any discipline.
Lovely up standing mare. She was also lightly broken last year to drive but we have only ridden her. For more information or videos please don't hesitate to ask. Sire can be seen in the pictures.

Smart, 3 year old Thoroughbred colt by Soldier's Call, out of Ballybacka Lady, a group 3 winner in Ireland. Standing approximately 15.1/15.2hh, he has been backed and ridden away before enjoying around 8 months off to mature and grow on. He is now ready to continue his education and would make a lovely riding club, pony club or all-round prospect.
Although eligible to return to training, we feel he is equally suited to someone wanting a quality young horse to produce for dressage, showing, eventing, hacking or general riding club activities. He has never raced due to his previous trainer emigrating and stepping away from racing.
Still entire, although gelding can be arranged here at the buyer's expense if desired. Currently missing a little hair from field scrapes, but these are purely cosmetic and already growing back. A well-bred youngster with a bright future ahead of him. Sensibly priced. Messages welcome.

17hh, 13 year old gelding, RoR eligible. Dan is a big, chunky gelding looking for his next home. In his previous home he enjoyed a range of riding club activities including dressage, showjumping, fun rides and plenty of hacking, which was his main job. He is greener on the flat than out hacking but has previously been well schooled.
Since arriving with us, Dan has been hacked down the main road and has proven sensible in traffic. He has recently returned to work after some time off due to his owner's circumstances and has come back with no issues. Dan is good to handle, lives in or out, is barefoot and up to date with everything.
Dan is loud in the wind when cantering, although this does not affect him. He also has an unusual walk where he places one foot in front of the other, something he has always done and which does not affect his ridden work. Priced to sell before we further his assessment and get more videos. Previous home videos available.

Milo is looking for an experienced home to continue his retraining after racing. Retiring from racing sound with no injuries. Standing at 16.2hh, Milo is an athletic, uphill-moving horse who naturally goes forward. He is still learning about life after racing and benefits from a confident rider, but he remains genuine in his work.
He may step away from the mounting block or when being legged up, but we are actively working on this and his confidence is improving. Once mounted he gets on with the job. He simply needs a rider building his confidence. He has started being introduced to coloured poles and is taking everything in his stride. We have not yet begun hacking him as we want him settled into a routine before introducing another new challenge, particularly as our yards on a main road.
Milo loads and travels well, is shod in front and barefoot behind. This lovely gelding has plenty to offer and, with a bit of time and consistency, will make somebody a fantastic horse.

15.3/16hh, 5 year old Thoroughbred mare. Unnamed on her passport, we've been calling her Daisy. She comes from one of our trusted trainers and has been backed in pre-training, walking, trotting and cantering, but has never been up the gallops. She genuinely doesn't know how to be a racehorse, making her an ideal blank canvas for someone wanting to produce a young horse their own way.
Daisy has had six months off to mature and is now ready for her next chapter to be rebacked and ridden away. She is athletic, kind natured and a little shy initially, but never nasty. She turns out with mares and geldings and is happy living in or out. We have recently free jumped her and she showed a lovely technique, willingness and natural athleticism. She looks to have plenty of potential for a variety of disciplines.
Available now before we bring her back into work ourselves. Barefoot. East Yorkshire based, near Goole. Delivery can be arranged. No sensible offer refused.

7 year old Thoroughbred Gelding. Cheap due to being overstocked – not a reflection of quality. Living out ATM. 16.2hh Retired from racing and now retrained. Ted has mainly been used for hacking since leaving racing and is a sensible, enjoyable ride out. He hacks well.
He is still green in the school due to lack of consistent schooling, making him an ideal project for someone wanting to put their own stamp on a horse. Plenty of potential for riding club, hacking or further retraining. Shod in front, barefoot behind, with front shoes freshly done and ready to go.
On the ground he can occasionally be a little grumpy, but nothing nasty or malicious and he responds well to a confident handler with clear boundaries. Ted previously had a very mild bout of laminitis. It was never claimed for on insurance and has caused no issues since. Never saw vet. Affordable project or potential flip for someone with the time to further his schooling. Offers if goes asap.

15.2hh, 5 year old registered Connemara gelding. Really lovely, sensible boy who has had a good start in life. He's genuine, kind and has plenty of ability. We really do think he'll make someone a cracking horse with a bit more time and experience.
We recently bought him unseen and, although he is exactly what we were told he was, we've realised he's just a little too inexperienced for the intended young riders current ability/experience at the moment. This is no fault of his at all and it's a really difficult decision to sell him.
He's still young and learning, so we'd really like him to go to someone who can continue his education and bring out the best in him. A lovely home is really important to us and we'd like to get it right for him this time. Priced accordingly as we would like to find him the right home fairly quickly. Open to sensible offers, but please no silly ones. Viewings and vettings very welcome.
