1. ‘True all-rounder’
Height: 15.2hh
Gender: mare
Age: seven
Selling points: “This is a true all-rounder. She absolutely loves jumping but is suitable for varied activities including showjumping, cross-country, hunter trials, working hunter and beach/charity rides. She is great to hack on her own or in company and has also done two 10-mile charity rides with jumps. She qualified for the Hickstead Sunshine showjumping tour at 70/80cm and recently jumped double clear at her first unaffiliated 80cm one-day event. She takes confidence from her rider and needs competent riding to get the best out of her. She can be mareish at times on the ground, but is so easy and respectful for an experienced handler. She is a generally loveable, sensible, go-anywhere type of horse.”

2. ‘Worth his weight in gold’
Height: 17.1hh
Gender: gelding
Age: eight
Selling points: “I bought ‘Motley’ for my daughter when she was 14 and he’s taken her from only being able to jump small fences to schooling round novice fences at home and competing at BE90 level. They don’t come more honest and genuine than him – I’ll happily let anyone get on him knowing he’ll look after them. He adjusts well to his riders, whether you want something to grab onto and take you into fences or trot, canter round on the buckle and pop some fences without changing at all. He is fab traveling and riding with new horses – I’ll happily let my daughter go off with her friends horses and know he will look after her and listen to her no matter what the other horses are doing. He’s been schooled every day at home in a big open field and he’s fab out in big open spaces and the brakes are always there. He loves his cross-country, is fab for the farrier, dentist and loves the physio. He’s clipped out every couple of months and he stands like a gentleman while being done and loves to have a hot bath. He’s a gentle giant on the ground, has never bitten or kicked and will stand all day to get groomed. His temperament stays the same while out at shows, he stands on the trailer and you won’t hear anything of him. This horse is worth his weight in gold.”

3. ‘Talented little horse’
Height: 15.2hh
Gender: mare
Age: six
Selling points: “This part-bred cob has the scope for dressage, showjumping and eventing. She has done a bit of everything and is a talented little horse, but not a novice ride. She is easy to clip, tie, load, catch etc.”
4. ‘Seasoned hunter’
Height: 15.2hh
Gender: mare
Age: 13
Selling points: “This is a seasoned hunt horse. She is currently hunting with the Staffs College drag hunt and can be tried out hunting at a cost. She has cross-country schooled and hacks alone.”
5. ‘Gold dust dream horse’
Height: 16.3hh
Gender: gelding
Age: 12
Selling points: “This horse is well put together with a good amount of limb and an exceptional mover. He is schooled up to elementary level dressage and has 144 British Dressage points (74 of which are elementary). As well as being a delight on the flat, this boy can jump, proving better at showjumping than cross-country, however dressage is his best discipline. Although he is beautifully schooled in all three paces and has a very kind and willing attitude, he is not a novice ride. He would suit a late teen/adult wanting to learn and go up the ranks. This horse is very easy to do in every way and a complete dream to handle – he has been handled and led by a 10-year-old child – and is excellent to box, travel, shoe etc. A total gold dust dream horse in every way.”
