We have too many horses here at the moment, and I need to make space for the rehab horses, as they have to be my main focus at the moment, so I have reluctantly decided to put 2 of the totally bombproof ones up for sale, as long as we can find the right homes  Cool

Please email or call me if you are interested - home is more important than price, so I am open to offers.  Photos of both of them are on the website and blog.

Bill: 17.1 IDxTB, 11 or 12 years old, absolute gentleman, came here lame with horrible feet in the spring (photos on the website) and now has lovely feet and is in full work - the only legacy of his lameness is that he does have a bigger stride on good ground than on hard, but he trots up perfectly level on the road.  He has hunted a few times (loves it!), hacks out on his own and has excellent manners - he taught a novice to show jump in his last home, and adores jumping.

Conto: 15.3 German warmblood, 12 years old, was up for sale last year but I kept him and hunted him all last season.  He hunts in a snaffle, hunter trialled (only 2ft6!) last season, and again there is lots more about him on the website and blog.  He is a totally genuine horse, completely bombproof on his own or in company (as is Bill), great to hack, great to hunt but does have old injuries to his left front and hind which mean he is not going to win any showing classes.

Thanks Jo Smile Glad you agree  Cool If there were 30 hours in the day and we hunted 6 days a week they would both stay!  Its great to have more nice horses than you need, but what to do with them?!  Shocked  Laughing

I can also vouch for both, especially Conto who took me on an exmoor-bog ride.  Laughing  He's a real gent, very comfy to ride and good fun too!

Well Nic, I was tempted the first time you advertised him on the forum, then you decided to keep him.  Then I came down to see you and met him and he's gorgeous, and now here he is for sale again........ and my husband is threatening to pack right now if I even HINT at being interested!!!  Laughing

He's a special boy that's for sure........ right, where's the nearest lottery ticket outlet...............  Cool

Bill and Conto are just lovely - and so well mannered on the ground. Lucky rider who gets either.

FAO Laura Quick in Devon

Laura, I received both your emails and replied to the first one, but obviously something isn't working, so probably no point me also replying to the second one!  

Can you give me a call: 0772 5555 245 and we can have a chat  Smile  

All the best,

Nic
