If you’re looking for the ultimate horsey partner in crime, perhaps a riding club all-rounder is what you’re after. If so, take a look at just a few of these riding club horses for sale on the Horse & Hound website this week.
1. ‘Super grassroots’
Height: 16hh
Age: six
Gender: gelding
Selling points: “This smart, compact gelding is like a big pony. He has three correct paces with a lovely balanced canter. He has hunted and drag hunted and has competed successfully at BE90, unaffiliated dressage and showjumping. He has proved to be genuine and easy and is good with ditches and water. He hacks alone or in company and is regularly ridden by a 15-year-old girl at home. He has been carefully produced and is easy to do in all ways.”
2. ‘The ultimate all-rounder’
Height: 16.3hh
Age: eight
Gender: gelding
Selling points: “This horse successfully competed in four-year-old event horse classes in Ireland and has been professionally schooled in the UK. He has been placed in unaffiliated dressage and has showjumped double clear in British Showjumping competitions. He has lovely paces and is a bold and brave jumper. He has the skills and attitude to go on in any sphere. He would also excel in the show ring. He is good to box, shoe, clip and hack.”
3. ‘A super horse’
Height: 15.2hh
Age: seven
Gender: gelding
Selling points: “‘Marcus’ is a small hunter type show horse with straight and extravagant paces and a nice jump. He has competed at local indoor unaffiliated showjumping and dressage competitions, fun rides and cross-country. He hacks out alone and in company and is vice and blemish free.”
4. ‘This horse has it all’
Height: 16.2hh
Age: six
Gender: mare
Selling points: “‘Brenda’ is stunning to look at, has lots of talent and ability and best of all an absolutely fantastic temperament. She has a fantastic, forgiving, honest nature and a willing genuine attitude. She has three lovely paces and a big, bold careful jump. She is happily jumping 90cm-1m at shows and is jumping around 1.10-1.15m at home. She absolutely loved cross-country schooling around BE90/100 fences. With continued outings and experience this season she is sure to be one to watch on the eventing scene especially for an amateur rider to excel at grassroots level. She is extremely easy to do with brilliant stable manners, has no vices, never stresses and doesn’t need daily riding to keep her sane. She is an absolute superstar to hack and has absolutely no issues. “
5. ‘Ideal riding club dressage horse’
Height: 15.2hh
Age: seven
Gender: mare
Selling points: “‘Lady’ is a forward going, responsive ride with big, expressive paces. She would suit a small adult looking to focus on dressage. She is working at novice level and has competed at unaffiliated prelim level. Lady has been owned for 18 months by an elderly lady and used for a small amount of flatwork and plenty of hacking. As her current owner doesn’t jump she is green in this regard but has been tried cross-country and is bold and straight to a fence. Lady is a straightforward and safe hack alone or in company, is snaffle mouthed, excellent to box/shoe/clip and lives in or out.”
