1. ‘Ultimate’ event horse for sale with the talent to go on
Height: 16.2hh
Gender: gelding
Age: 11
Selling points: “This Irish draft x thoroughbred gelding is a complete gentleman who ooses quality, potential and scope. He has competed up to BE 100 where he finished sixth on his first outing at that level with an under-18 rider. He is level-headed, focused and very willing to please. He has a huge stride and covers the ground well — a real cross-country machine. He has more than enough scope and ability to go novice+ and only hasn’t due to Covid-19. Tyson has competed British Showjumping (BS) on a ticket, where on his first outing he produced a lovely double clear in the discovery. He is well-balanced, uphill and free moving on the flat. He has been working on his lateral movements and they are coming on nicely. He is a dream to own, shoe, hack, catch and load, although does need sedation to be clipped.”
2. ‘Smart’ horse that’s evented to BE100 level
Height: 16.2hh
Gender: gelding
Age: 13
Selling points: “A sad sale of this much-loved horse. He has Cor de la Bruyére breeding and has competed at BE100 and BS discovery. He is good to shoe, box, clip.”

3. ‘Competitive’ all-rounder that’s evented at BE90
Height: 15.1hh
Gender: gelding
Age: 10
Selling points: “This horse is a real all-rounder with three good paces and a great jump, with plenty of scope. My lack of confidence has kept us at 90cm but he would easily compete at BE100 or BS discovery level. He is also smart enough for pure dressage. He is good to hack both in company and alone and an absolute sweetheart on the ground/in stable. He is good to load, shoe and clip. He is a forward going ride so no novices.”

4. ‘Stunning’ potential five-star event horse for sale
Height: 16.3hh
Gender: mare
Age: seven
Selling points: “‘Blaze’ was bred with top level showjumping/eventing in mind. She has been slowly and carefully produced to allow her to mature into her frame and with longevity as the focus. As a five-year-old she competed in young event horse classes and also did a couple of unaffiliated events. She has since then concentrated on her riders’ main discipline of showjumping and has been cross-country schooled. She qualified for newcomers and Foxhunter second rounds for 2019/2020, qualified for the winter six-year-old final and also stepped up to 1.30m with ease. She has plenty of scope, covers the ground well, has lovely paces and is brave to a fence. She has the potential to make a five-star event horse. She is easy to do in all ways — clip/hack/travel/load etc.”

5. ‘Talented’ young horse that could excel
Height: 16.1hh
Gender: gelding
Age: five
Selling points: “This is a very attractive looking horse with good conformation. He schools nicely on the flat with three smart and correct paces — moves completely straight. He has a neat, scopey jump and has competed successfully up to 1.10m showjumping in Ireland and has 12SJI points to-date. He has also competed in unaffiliated eventing and hunted with the Galway Blazers on a couple of occasions. He hacks out alone or in company and is good in traffic. He is easy to do in every way (shoe, box, catch, clip, load etc) and travels in a lorry or trailer. He has a recent five-stage vet certificate. This is a lovely talented young horse who could excel in any sphere in the right hands.”
