If money isn’t an object, then perhaps one of these bank balance-busting horses will be for you? Whether you dream of competing at the Olympics or riding for your country in youth teams, take a look at our selection of horses over £25,000 for sale on the Horse & Hound website this week.
1. ‘Four-star potential’
Height: 16.1hh
Age: 11
Gender: gelding
Selling points: “‘Arco BB’ has 130 BE points and has successfully competed at three-star level. In 2015 he was part of the Irish nations cup team and was longlisted for their Rio 2016 squad. He has three correct paces and is very bold and striaght cross-country. Competed up to 1.30m BS and is always the yard favourite. He would suit either a professional looking to strengthen their team at this level or maybe a junior looking for a horse to take them up the ranks.”
2. ‘One in a million’
Height: 16hh
Age: 12
Gender: gelding
Selling points: “”Aphrodisiac’ has successfully competed at three-star level eventing including a third place at Chatsworth CIC3*. Although this is a sound horse who has been his whole career, we now feel he would be best suited in pure dressage. He is very well trained and easy to ride, which was shown at his first BD competition, with a second place in a medium scoring over 65% and first place in an advanced medium scoring over 70%. He is very eye catching and loves his work. Trained to PSG level.”
3. ‘Potential to go to the top’
Height: 17hh
Age: nine
Gender: gelding
Selling points: “‘Fastino’ is an exceptional boy with an outstanding competition record. He has 146BD points to his name and is currently competing at BD medium level. He is ready to start changes.”
4. ‘Would take anyone round a three-star’
Height: 17.1hh
Age: 13
Gender: gelding
Selling points: “‘Calador’ has a record that speaks for its self. He hasn’t had a cross-country fault in six years of eventing under BE and FEI rules. He always consistently performs well in all three phases and never lets you down. He has never been injured and isn’t tricky in any way. Results include: fourth Bramham CCI3* 2013, represented Team GB on nations cup team, sixth Blair Castle CIC3* 2014, double clear Blenheim 2015. He has jumped six double clears at three-star level in the past three seasons and is qualified for Badminton 2016.”
5. ‘The whole package’
Height: 16.1hh
Age: 10
Gender: gelding
Selling points: “This horse has an exceptional temperament and the ability to go to the top. He only started eventing in 2015 so he has low mileage but has racked up some excellent results including a win at BE novice and double clear in a CIC*. Three correct and flashy paces, which means he is regularly in the lead after dressage. No vices, easy to do in all ways.”
6. ‘Not to be missed’
Height: 16.3hh
Age: six
Gender: gelding
Selling points: “This horse is jumping 1.30m classes and has won a Foxhunter. He has three double clears at newcomer level and is a great prospect for the future. He is extremely easy, brave and scopey with lots more to give. A lovely horse to be around and easy to do in every respect.”
