2. ‘Talented’
Height: 16.2hh
Gender: gelding
Age: 11
Selling points: “This Irish Sports Horse is by ARS Vivendi. He is super-good looking and a talented showjumper with a lovely character. He is a level headed, confidence-giving horse. He is easily jumping 1.20m and 1.30m classes and qualified in the winter for many classes such as Blue Chip Karma Performance, Foxhunter and the 1.25m Winter Championship. He moves beautifully and would suit a confident amateur and/or teenager who wants to learn and move up the classes, having fun. He is quick against the clock and good to shoe, hack, travel, etc. He is a lovely boy to have around in the stable and at shows. I have had him since he was a five-year-old and is for sale through no fault of his own. I expect he would be happy doing cross-country too – nothing fazes him!”

4. ‘Super all-rounder’
Height: 16.2hh
Gender: gelding
Age: 10
Selling points: “This is an eye-catching heavyweight hunter type with 11 inches of flat, clean bone. ‘Spencer’ is very well schooled in all three paces and for a big horse he has lovely, straight paces and a fantastic attitude towards his work. He would easily produce a nice dressage test. He is jump schooling around 1m with scope, and is not at all fazed by coloured or rustic fences or fillers – he is totally uncomplicated going into his fences and will go off any stride and is bold. He has previously hunted in Ireland, is fantastic to hack out alone or in company, will go first or last and is good with traffic. Spencer is not at all fazed with being either turned out alone or in a mixed heard. He really is such a lovely person and these types are so hard to find. He has fantastic manners in out of the stable – he is such a perfect gentleman. Spencer would excel in an all-round/eventing home – he can and will turn his hoof to anything.”
