Fantastic lesson with Alan last week. BFG is getting better and better each time. But the better he gets the fitter I need to be. 😬

Reflecting on an exceptional week at the Dublin Horse Show (RDS).

It was a privilege to witness world-class standards across showjumping, breeding, and there native breeds including Irish Draughts, Connemaras, and Hunters. The dedication to presentation and quality throughout the show and the foal sale was truly remarkable.

Having reconnected with key industry figures and breeders at the RDS, I have access to a strong network of quality equines. If you have specific requirements for your next horse or pony please feel free to message me.

Smart 15.2hh Potential Eventer

Benji is a 6-year-old homebred gelding with a lovely attitude and plenty of potential. He has competed in both dressage and showjumping, showing three balanced, correct paces and a careful, genuine jump.

He has also been cross-country schooling and has taken to it like a duck to water, proving brave and willing. Benji has attended numerous riding club clinics, TREC events, and team competitions, gaining valuable experience along the way.

He is now ready for someone to take the reins, put their own stamp on him, and continue producing him for the upcoming eventing season.

Benji is good to shoe, box, hack, and clip.

Genuine reason for sale.

Super pleased with BFG on Saturday at the BRITISH RIDING CLUBS AREA 10 dressage qualifier. We ticked all the boxes. Travelled well ✅ behaved in the warm up ✅ was very relaxed in the arena ✅ scored just over 70% ✅ we also came home with a rosette. 🥉
A massive thank you to Lisa Pilbeam for all your help and encouragement.
So if at first you don’t succeed, try and try again.
