16hh dapple grey mary, 9 years old, TB x Connemara. She is a stunning horse, has turned many heads since I have had her. Very low mileage having been a happy hacker most of her life. But for 1 year she went out and competed BSJA. She has stunning paces and with the right rider she will go far, she really has the look at me factor.  She is bombproof in traffic even met a tram for the first time and didn't even flinch!! I want a loving home for this girl, someone who has time to spend with her. ABSOLOUTLEY NO DEALERS. Since I have had her she has been back in full work-hacking, schooling and lunging, and has taken to it well...she hadn’t jumped in over a year, and has popped logs out hacking and jumps in the school and has hesitated at nothing. Experienced rider necessary just for the reason that she is a little impatient when it comes to standing still...however this is getting better the more work she does.

She has the softest mouth and is ridden in a happy mouth for all disciplines, the slightest touch on the rein and she comes back to you even in an open field.  She has been barefoot all her life and lives in or out. She just needs getting back to fitness, and above all I want her loved and spoilt!!

£1,900.  This mare would be up for a lot more money, but last week she got scared in the field and decided to climb a hedge to get away from a horse, she grazed her legs (all superficial and vet checked)...these are healing well, vet just advised to give her a couple of weeks off..however she needs to go to a new home ASAP as a new horse is arriving at the yard... this is a huge bargain for a fantastic horse, and I would love to stay in contact with wherever she goes. Please email me on xvicster13x@hotmail.com or call 07950 501610

Eye-catching beautiful horse, 17.1hh ISH, 7yo Bay Gelding.  This wonderful horse has been brought on slowly by a young adult and has the ability to be absolute top class in whatever he does.  He is a complete gent who excels at everything.  Currently doing county Working Hunters.  He easily pops over 1.20m fences of ANY type, colour or combination with a safe, sane and bold attitude.  He has been hunting a few times with current owner and was very well behaved.  He would make a perfect hunter/eventer horse who would not only jump ANYTHING in front of him but would turn heads as well!  Brook has a kind, caring nature, handled by children and a gent both on and off the ground as well as being good to box/shoe etc.  He's a horse not to be missed!  Based in East Sussex.  Horsemart Code HM026BAA9.  Offers in the region of £12,495 and open to negotiation.  Recently 4th at Hickstead Amateur Working Hunter and 6th Ridden Hunter at Hickstead.  For sale due to owner going to university.  For more details CLICK HERE or contact Celia on 07957 589490 or e-mail lilmissguided@hotmail.co.uk

Quiet stable yard In Warlingham, Surrey has two boxes for part livery or have grass livery limited.  Great hacking, jumping field grass school area.  Gated complex.  No children please.  For more information please contact Lucy on 07738 012432.

Safe, sensible and well trained 16.2hh elegant dark bay 9-y-o Westphalian mare (Davignon & Langraff lines).  Diva has three extravagant correct paces and is currently working advanced medium with an established change, she also has good lateral work, extension and collection. Currently still in elementary points (178). She has an excellent competition record (search Dolce Vita II on BD website) and regularly scores over 70% up to elementary.

Competition Highlights include: Pet plan Prelim Final at the Winter Championships 2008 (with very nervous rider), 12^th at the National 6-y-o Final at Addington in 2007, qualified for the Regionals (2007,2008, 2009) at novice and elementary (summer and winter), represented Argentina at Hartpury CPDI 2009 as grade 1a ride.

She is also very talented over a fence, bold and careful but as yet untapped potential as never competed BS. She would jump round a BN track tomorrow as all the groundwork has been done. Never hots up or silly, she is excellent clip, catch, box, shoe etc. Hacks alone and in company, not nappy but is not 100% in heavy traffic on her own but is fine in company.  Very kind sweet natured mare who is not in the least bit mareish, she regularly travels with our stallion and takes no notice of him at all (much to his disappointment!).  Easy on the flat; but to ride more advanced movements you need to be a competent, accurate rider. She would be ideally suited a talented rider or young rider on a budget wishing to purchase a quality mare with talent.  Alternatively she could be downgraded to suit a less experienced or nervous rider wishing to excel at lower level affiliated competition where she happily take someone back up the ranks.

This is a very sad sale due to our new baby; she has been in the same home here for the last four years.  £8,500 ono.  For more information telephone 07843 585504 or 01622 884817.

Has been XC schooling.  She has always been ridden in a snaffle and has never been strong.  Echo is also an excellent broodmare and has produced a stunning filly two years ago who is still with us (photos can be seen).  She has a wonderful nature and is brilliant with all the family including children and dogs.  Good to box, clip, catch, in traffic and with the farrier.  Happy to live in or out. Wears a fly rug in the summer as can get a bit itchy.

Sadly for sale due to change in circumstances and looking for an experienced rider to reach her full potential. Echo is fit and ready to go!  No time wasters as this will be a hard enough sale; she will be sadly missed by all.  £3,750 Herts/Beds/Bucks border.  Phone : 07799 016882 or 01442 827581, e-mail Debbie.djt@btinternet.com

I have owned horses most of my life, so experienced home and I am actively looking for a 15 to 16.2HH horse.  Just a long shot, but thought I would put the word out there!

I am looking for a forward going, but safe and sensible horse who is not a rearer, bucker or bolter and not spooky.  I like local show jumping, cross country, dressage and hacking, so must be positive and forward thinking and happy to hack alone and in company, not strong or fizzy.  Good to load, clip, shoe and catch and no vices and no serious injuries or illnesses or previous ones.

I am in West Sussex now but used to live in Horley, Surrey and have ridden in Walton on the Hill on the Downs previously and brought our horse to the Open Summer shows!

If you do hear of any who may be suitable, please give me a ring (Theresa) on 07922 106682 or email viberts@talktalk.net 

We are looking for a part-time groom to work at Australian Horse Training www.australianhorsetraining.co.uk.
 
We have a fantastic yard with lovely facilities and the owners live on site so there is always support and back-up if required, our liveries are very friendly and the yard has a nice atmosphere.  We are now looking for a part-time groom to assist with one weekend day - Sunday and to cover for bank holidays/staff holidays.  We are a great employer and we have lots of social events that the groom is always welcome to attend as well as our coffee mornings and events that we hold.  Our grooms regularly bring their own horses to our clinic afternoons as a treat for all their hard work.
 
All we ask is that you are an experienced horse person, very capable and confident handling youngsters, have extremely high standards of care, able to have sole charge when the yard is closed at weekends, able to offer support to our liveries and good customer service.  There is riding (exercising of our own and our livery horses - not our training horses do not worry!) if the groom would like it, however if a good non riding groom came along we would still be very interested as the high standards of care is the priority for us.  Start ASAP.

A fun forward going youngster, currently ridden and hunted by a 15yr old boy, with the potential to be a brilliant allround RC/PC horse.

Eager to learn and to please, he has a lovely soft mouth and rides forward and off the leg, and although he is forward thinking he is never strong and is snaffle mouthed at all times. He has been SJ, going clear over 1m tracks, and XC schooling, jumping everything up to open 3ft3 height inc. ditches, hedges and water.

He has hunted this season with the OSB&WK, is beautifully behaved at the meet and in the field, and is proving to be brave and bold across country jumping everything that has been asked of him without hesitation and without a lead.

He is hacked out regularly both alone and in company, and is used to traffic, tractors, children, dogs, footballs etc!! He is lovely and easy to handle and is straightforward to catch, clip, shoe, load etc, and travels fine with company in either a trailer or a lorry.

This super youngster is completely unspoilt and is ready to be brought on in any sphere by the right rider in an experienced knowledgeable home where he really can reach his full potential.
