Wanted: Horses

Wanted - super safe event horse / all rounder


Ref #: 357391
  • 15-16hh, confidence giver
  • Experienced event horse, no youngsters
  • Laid back, kind natured horse
  • 15-16hh, confidence giver
  • Experienced event horse, no youngsters
  • Laid back, kind natured horse

After suddenly sadly losing my incredible event horse, I am now tentatively on the search for a new partner in crime.

I am looking for an allrounder/event horse for myself, a 19 yr old girl, with experience competing at 90/100. I am looking for a horse who knows their job and is able to take me back up the levels after not riding competitively for the past couple of years due to A Levels. My main focus is to get back to eventing, as it is what I love, so I am looking for the confidence giver type.

As well as eventing, dressage is also something that I love, so would like a well-schooled horse able to compete at elementary/medium level. Cannot be anything quirky, as I much prefer a safe, calm and laid-back horse. I am a competent rider, however, just don’t enjoy a frisky ride! This is more important to me than something that always brings home rosettes.

Aside from competing, I like to partake in many other things such as hacking, fun rides, beach rides, etc. Therefore, must be good to hack alone and in company in open spaces, including being good with traffic, dogs, bikes etc. We are lucky to have amazing hacking on our doorstep so I do like to go out a few times a week, hence the horse must be happy to do that and must be well behaved and sane. Must be good to load, clip, shoe, turn out etc. Must also be calm at events and be the type to happily stand on the lorry when needed.

We keep our horses at home and only have a small number of horses, so it is a quiet yard. Ideally would like a horse that is used to this environment, especially one that doesn’t deal with separation anxiety. The horse must polite and super easy to deal with on the ground.

We have incredible facilities, great turnout and a real 10* home available with references if requested. I really am looking for a new best friend who can become a member of our family permanently.

The right horse will be so well loved and will be with me forever. Unable to come for a viewing until beginning of December. Generous budget for the right horse.

Please message on 07561414052, but please contact on WhatsApp :)

Wanted - Established Intermediate / 3* Eventer - Schoolmaster


Ref #: 358210
  • Amateur eventer aiming to step up to Intermediate in 2025
  • I'm an equine vet & keep my horses on a professional event yard
  • Buy / Lease / Loan
  • Amateur eventer aiming to step up to Intermediate in 2025
  • I'm an equine vet & keep my horses on a professional event yard
  • Buy / Lease / Loan
I'm looking for a genuinely established Intermediate / 3* eventer to help me make the step up nx season.

Ideally a quality, kind, small horse that's taken another amateur rider Intermediate / 3*. Something a bit blood, with confidence and scope to jump me out of trouble, good form and able to reward good riding.

I'm a relatively light-frame, 5'7 female and ride pretty soft / quiet so don't need a giant or anything too strong. I'm established at Novice / 2* level and brave and quick XC but if a horse is drying up on me I can't be trusted not to sit a bit passive so I do need a confident horse to bring out the positive rider in me.

There's a realistic budget to buy or I'd consider lease / loan maybe if the jockey's gone to Uni / travelling or for whatever reason doesn't want to sell. I'm an equine vet and am based with my two eventers, Bruno and Luna on a professional event yard with Gubby Leech, who gives me loads of support and also train with Dickie Waygood. I keep my horses super fit, ride them 5-6 days a week, mainly school out hacking in the wonderful parkland at Clarendon nr Salisbury and just go in the arena for lessons. The horses are on individual turnout and get loads of variety, training, schooling, competing, beach rides etc.

I'm plenty used to 'competition horses' and don't mind a little 'sass' but does need to be relatively straightforward on the ground as I often take several horses out on my own, without help.

https://www.facebook.com/hanimilsteineventingequinevet/
If you'd like to get an idea of my riding pls feel free to take a look at the millions of photos / videos / debriefs on my Facebook / Insta. Just as it was all going amazingly and I thought we were about to step up, I did have a confidence knock middle of last season where I temporarily lost the ability to ride, but the wheels have been firmly re-attached and confidence levels are running high again.. that's eventing for you tho isn't it?!

Anyone who’s sold me a horse will tell you that if it’s a good match and I’m getting the feels, it’ll be the quickest, easiest sale you’ll ever have. I know what I like and I can vet my own horse.

Please don't be offended that I'm not currently looking for:
a quality youngster with potential but that hasn't had a few good runs at Intermediate - I don't have the experience to introduce a horse to Intermediate
a large / powerful / strong horse - I'll just be over-horsed
a horse that's been produced by a big, strong guy - I'm small and don’t ride super forceful
a very careful horse that'll lose confidence or punish me if I get it wrong - I'm an amateur and don't always get the best shot
a horse that hasn't been jumping bigger tracks in the last couple of years or who's had some problems with their record - I'm not going to be a better jockey than their previous partner
a horse that is a bit of a terrorist on the ground - I do this for fun and often I'm on my own without help
an agent to find me a horse - I'd initially like to explore options through my vet and rider networks and the HQ massif, to find me my next unicorn
