Age: 10
Gender: mare
Selling points: “‘Star’ is an honest showjumper, being both bold and un-spooky, she never says no, and will jump off any stride. She is comfortably competing at BS novice and discovery with scope to go further. She is schooling round 1.10m at home and effortlessly free schooling 1.30m/1.40m .”
Selling points: “This horse has approximately £1,400 in BS winnings. She is winning at every show, including first place in the Foxhunter/Grade C at Solihull in February. She is jumping 1.30m+ courses at home with ease. ‘Africa’ is a bold forward mare with scopey jump who will suit an ambitious amateur.”
Selling points: “A true gentle giant that has been slowly produced due to his fabulous size allowing him to mature correctly. Works beautifully on flat and is comfortably jumping 1.20m but has popped easily over 1.30m+ at home with big potential for 1.60m+ when he is older. He is now competively on the BS circuit competing at discovery and newcomer level and will be ready for Foxhunter in a couple of months. He has been competed by both a lady and gent rider. He has massive potential, talent and heart to be a top grand prix prospect. Will take a competitive rider to the stars.”
Selling points: “‘Mark The Man’ is a quality young horse who jumped age classes as a five- and six-year-old. He has consistently notched doble clears in international shows and Foxhunter classes.”
Selling points: “This horse has won five- and six-year-old classes, grade C classes, B and C classes and has earned £1,359 in BS winnings (538 BS points). He is an athletic and careful jumper with plenty of scope and potential. He has successfully competed up to 1.30m and has no vices.”
