TOYs 2024!!

What a week of achievements, non stop laughs and fun. 🤩

Orsetto Made to Shine (Cooper) 🐴 our first home bred went out and and exceeded all of our expectations.

He started the week quite over whelmed but Jason EJL Stud & Livery handled him with so much care allowing him to pull off a 🥇 win in the 2 year old part bred class, along with coping amazingly with the main arena and taking overall Reserve Champion Youngstock.

Then Game Changer (Haribo) 🐴

You really made my show. Haribo arrived with us unbacked 6 weeks ago with the goal of being ready for TOY’s and ready you were! (I thought you were mad Eleanor Lancaster but we pulled it off and more).

🥇 Winner in the restricted final in a strong class up against seasoned HOYs ponies and Reserve Champion large Gelding.

🥈 In the Ridden Best of Breed for Crystal what a mare she is 🤩 then in to the Best of breed supreme.

You have excelled your self Haribo we would have been happy to come back with no rosettes and you just enjoy your first show as a newly backed horse.

Most of all a HUGE thank you to Ejl Stud (Eleanor, Jason and all the family) for the opportunity. Trusting us to ride some Top Class horses.

Big Bruce: Looking for a Loan Home! 🏠

Are you in search of an excellent riding partner? Bruce is available for loan, either to stay at Belle Vue or another vetted home.

Bruce, a 9-year-old gelding, is not suitable for novice riders due to a few quirks when mounting. However, he is fantastic to ride, a dream on hacks, loves cross country, would be great for hunting, and schools nicely.

Bruce was backed and ridden away by Traditional Show Cobs - Susie Shuttleworth a few years ago and has lived with us here since.

Details:

• 15.2/3hh Traditional Cob
• Weight-carrying type
• Lovely to handle, good with the farrier, and adaptable to living in or out

Bruce is currently hacking and being brought back to work after a winter off due to the owner’s circumstances. He is a real gem of a horse but will require a quiet, patient rider to build a bond with him.

He has never been sick or sorry and is a pleasure to have around.

For more details and to arrange a meeting with Big Bruce, please contact us.

Thank you for all the enquiries Hope is now sold to a fabulous and suitable home 🏡

🐴 Meet Hope – looking for a hacking or breeding home also would likely make a great Hunting Horse.

Are you searching for a Super Smart Happy Hacker. Welsh Section D mare? Hope is a stunning 14.1/2hh, 7-year-old mare with exceptional breeding lines, ready to thrive in a new home focused on hacking, hunting, or breeding.

Hope came to me as a brood mare after becoming sour in the school, she had the winter off then then brought back to work. (Hopped on and straight for a hack).

She is still reluctant to move forward in the arena, but she happily hacks, canter through fields schools in open spaces.

Circumstances have changed, and I’m no longer looking to breed another this year. So Hope is searching for her next loving home.

✨ Why Choose Hope? ✨

• Hacking/Hunting/Breeding: Perfect for these activities.
• Great Breeding Lines: Excellent pedigree.
• Flexible Living: Can live in or out.
• Experienced: Hacks like a dream alone or in company.

🌟 Key Features 🌟

• Sensible and responsive ride in open spaces
• Not suitable for a schooling environment will just refuse to go forward in arena.

💰 Price: Low 4 figures

All homes will be vetted she’s a lovely horse.

Open to vetting have full history and has been investigated thoroughly by the vets full details can be given.
