1. ‘Head-turner’
Height: 16.1hh
Gender: filly
Age: one
Selling points: “This graceful and big-moving filly has been bred very much with eventing in mind, but has both the quality of movement and conformation to have the potential to wow in the show ring or dressage arena. GFS Rapunzel is as impressive in action as she is beautiful in repose, demonstrating a big, expressive trot and paces that seamlessly extend and elevate in perfect balance as she moves. This filly has a winning personality — she is highly sociable, confident and has the type of calm intelligence that makes her a joy to work with every step of the way. She has been correctly and professionally handled from day one and has manners in abundance whether in the paddock or stable. She is vice-free and easy to handle in all situations.We would ultimately love to see this filly in a knowledgable home where her potential can be fulfilled, which could be in any of the Olympic disciplines in our opinion. She is also well prepared and a really exciting candidate for showing prior to commencing work under saddle.”

3. ‘Beautiful and fun’
Height: 13.1hh
Gender: mare
Age: 13
Selling points: “Honey is a beautiful, fun all-round Pony Club pony. Over the past two years she has brought on my son’s riding no end, and built his confidence, cementing his love of riding and desire to go further. Now he has sadly outgrown her and needs to move onto a larger pony. I can honestly say that she has been the first true love of his life! She’s taken him from competing at 60cm to 80cm and has plenty of scope, happily schooling over 90cm. She has hunted, taken part in three camps with my son and they’ve had great fun competing and winning at many local shows and events and on NSEA school teams. Honey is well-mannered and easy to do in every way. She’s a beautifully behaved pony who really looks after her rider. She is forward going and needs a fairly competent or confident rider, but she is great fun to ride and despite being quite fast is very safe and careful. We have done some flatwork with her and she will work in a lovely outline and do a lovely dressage test.”

5. ‘Very willing’
Height: 15hh
Gender: mare
Age: nine
Selling points: “Loxy is a beautiful Welsh palomino. She is not a novice ride — she needs a strong confident teenager or a small confident adult. We bought Loxy for my daughter who unfortunately did not stop growing and is now too tall. Loxy was bought with very little education — we have spent the first year hacking and past year working on her flat work however, she can still be green. Loxy can jump but again needs a confident rider to ride her into the jump. Loxy has had some time off, but we are now bringing her back into work properly. Loxy is head strong, but once you have her she is a super willing horse.”
