Cheshire Racehorse Retraining

11/06/2026

How has this boy not had any interest?

Moose has come on so much since starting his retraining journey in January. He hasn't been a quick fix or an overnight success story - he's been a slow burn, taking time to adjust to life after racing and learn what his new job is all about.

The difference in him now is incredible. He's relaxed, settled, and genuinely enjoys his work. He's developed into a lovely horse with a great attitude, and every week he continues to improve.

Moose is looking for a knowledgeable, experienced home that will continue to bring out the best in him. He's not a novice ride, but for the right person he's going to make a cracking partner and has all the ingredients to excel in whichever sphere his new owner chooses.

We genuinely can't believe he's still waiting for his person.

Moose

Moose is a handsome 9-year-old, 16hh chestnut Thoroughbred gelding by Coach House who retired sound from racing in July 2025

Moose has been with us in retraining since January and has taken time to adjust to life after racing. He has not been the quickest horse to switch off from the track, however with patience, consistency and correct training he has come on hugely and is now ready to find a knowledgeable home to continue his education.

He is a forward thinking horse who enjoys having a job to do, so he is absolutely not suitable for novices or nervous riders. That said, he is not nasty or malicious — he does not buck, rear or bolt — he simply needs an experienced rider who understands sharper, more sensitive horses and can continue producing him correctly.

On the ground, Moose is an absolute gentleman to handle. He is good for the vet, farrier and physio, comes to call in the field, and is easy to catch amd handle. He hacks out confidently, although he can be keen and sometimes likes to jog on the way home. He also has a bit of character and is known for pulling faces around feed times but its just face pulling and nothing else

He is happily living out and thrives with plenty of turnout. A home that can offer year-round turnout is a must, as he can become fresh if stabled for long periods.

Moose has plenty of potential and we feel he could excel in any sphere with the right person willing to invest time and patience into bringing out the best in him. He would particularly suit someone experienced with ex-racehorses who enjoys putting their own stamp on a horse.

He is a rewarding horse for the right person who can offer him the time, patience and consistency he deserves. Serious enquiries only, as finding the right home is the priority.

Based in Sandbach Cheshire.

Pub proofing hack for Jimmy and Nando.

I swear nothing fazes these two boys. They took the whole experience completely in their stride and behaved impeccably from start to finish.

They are genuinely two of the most laid-back, chilled horses you could wish for. Whether it's traffic, people, dogs, strange sights or the hustle and bustle around a busy pub, they take it all in their stride with their usual relaxed attitude.

Safe to say they passed their pub-proofing hack with flying colours!

Come along for Nando's first ever solo hack!

What a superstar this little horse is proving to be. At just 3 years old, Nando took everything in his stride, including a large lorry passing him on the road. Unfazed, unflappable, and taking it all in as though he's been doing it for years.

Now, ask him to tackle a grid... that's apparently a much bigger challenge than traffic!

To finish off his adventure, Nando enjoyed a splash and a play in the stream, making the most of a lovely ride out.

With his confidence continuing to grow, we are now beginning the search for Nando's new home. Whoever is lucky enough to become Nando's person is going to get a truly cracking little horse. He is kind, honest, willing, and an absolute pleasure to have around. The sort that puts a smile on your face every day.

We can't wait to see what the future holds for this special little dude.
