Rising 7 year old mare. 5.10.2016
I have Had Maxi for 6 years In which she has taught three of my kids to ride.
Is a little dream to have around. Has a bit of sass about her so needs to go to an experienced home.
Never had any issues with her weight.
Been to Multiple shows. Leadrein and in hand.
Perfect for the kids to do everything with.
Hasn’t had any riding off the lead as I don’t have a child to do this. Can’t see it being a problem though.
She can be a bit difficult to get on the float sometimes. She’s either perfect or stubborn. When she’s going out consistently she gets heaps better.
Unfortunately I only have one kid riding so she’s just wasting in the paddock. Perfect to drag out of the paddock, saddle up and ride. Perfect to road ride and farm hack.
Best home is most important.

✨ Luna ✨
6yo 16hh mare by Pins

Luna is a very special mare looking for her new person after retiring sound from racing.

If you are looking for a mare that’s acts like a gelding (so much so she’s never been seen to be in season) is perfect to float, clip, generally do everything under the sun with, she is your girl.

Would turn her hoof at anything she’s presented with and give it her all as well, has jumped the odd thing she’s pointed at, done some mustering and spent her life around dogs and kids.

Must be a lovely home for this girl as the owner would like to stay in contact. Currently fluffy, turned out and in good condition. No ridden videos currently due to turnout.

❤️ Civil ❤️
Rising 7 yr old, chestnut gelding, approximately 16’1hh by Civics.
First ride and wow, what a dude. He’s race fit and has recently steeplechased yet was curious and willing to understand the task at hand. He’s forward yet very sensible. No vices. No injuries. Has been hacked out (even does gates) could be a very cool hunter or eventer. Loves his jumping, very point and shoot.
Floats and trucks. Lovely to handle, a true gentleman.
Please don’t ask for ‘more information’ he’s been here three days. This is all we know. We are however VERY impressed!

💕 Ruiz 💕
9 yr old, 15’2hh bay gelding from Australia.
This one is the sweetest dude you could hope to find. He will be the bestest friend and bestest fun! Great attitude, not spooky, looky or matey. Known for jumping anything he’s pointed at. Fun sized with new shoes. Doesn’t know much but very willing to learn. FREE - only because we are time poor and clearing paddocks 😊

The lovely Kenny still needs his own human. 4 yr old 16’1hh Tavistock gelding. This is his first ride back since October when he had a wee fence mishap. He’s all healed. Photos of his injury and videos of him working all in his album. He’s lovely and quiet, we simply don’t have time to bring him into work properly. He’s not wearing shoes so this was simply to show you how quiet he is!

Karapiro (Kenny) 4 yr old, 16’1hh, Tavistock gelding. Lovely, lovely boy that is possibly the most unphotogenic horse ever!
Had a little altercation with a fence last year, healed perfectly and no damage done to tendons/ligaments. Will just need bringing in slowly to allow the scar tissue to stretch and settle. See his album for old ridden videos.
If you freak out that it’s free, pay us $5 and it’ll be more expensive than the $2 horse that just completed the Kentucky 5*

Speaking of stunners, here’s one for the ‘not a tb please’ club.
Frankie, 16’1hh, 6 yr old gelding by Kinnordy Gymbello out of a Falkirk mare.
Has been very easy to produce so far, nice nature, lovely paces and jump.
Has not been out competing yet and his tag reflects that.

💥 Lofty 💥

We can’t really figure out what is wrong with everybody, as there is absolutely nothing wrong with Lofty.

- Yes, he hasn’t got a couple hundred price tag as he’s extremely talented in his unschooled, learning state.

- Yes, he needs a very competent capable rider to produce him (competing/confidently competed 95 upward would be his person)

- Yes, he did a tendon, and lucky you, we are bringing him into work the correct way so he can go ALL the way, hence why you don’t get to see hundreds of jumping videos. He jumps like a purebred warmblood. He needs a proper strengthening prep, which is what he’s getting.

- Yes, you are about to miss out as at the end of this week he’s officially off the market to be produced personally.

Frankie in January. More coming soon.

What are you all waiting for? This guy is the perfect age, size, temperament and beautifully bred! The amount of times I’ve been asked for a Battlepaint, yet here he sits….
Could be sold sight unseen to the right person as there are zero quirks to disclose. Perfect first tb project for someone wanting to give it a go….

✿✿ Kamakaze ✿✿

Approx 16'2hh, dark bay, 8yo gelding by Battle Paint out of a Carnegie mare. Incredible eventing lines and everything we've experienced with him so far suggests eventing could be the go. Schooling nicely on the flat, balanced and picking up the correct lead. Fancy over a fence, a quick learner and very clever. Still green so not for a noob.

🔴🔴🔴 Picking up your new horse 🔴🔴🔴

Buying a horse is always very exciting, we do understand you want to get your shiny new friend home as soon as possible, but there are a couple of criteria we are implementing so your new friend arrives home in one piece.

We do ask the trainers the horses come from if they have floated and 90% of the time its an unknown but they have trucked. Also 90% of the time they arrive on a truck, or an angle load float.

We do not spend any time float training horses that come through. We spend enough time and money retraining them, feeding them, shoeing them, covering them and generally looking after them.

Going forward, collection of your new horse will need to be made via a truck. We can recommend transporters for you and that come here regularly and go NZ wide.

If you wish to collect your horse via float (especially straight loading), please try and bring a spare person to help you load your horse and be prepared to do it by yourself. We have spent countless hours trying to get willing tb's into unsuitable floats, and if it goes wrong purchasers then trying to back out of taking the horse as it won't load.

If you wish to float train your new horse, please do that in your own time at your own property. We aren't keen for you to float train your new tb at the end of our driveway.

With it being so hard to find these lovely horses suitable homes at the moment, and to help with transport costs (if a transporter is booked), we will offer a discount (within reason) to help you get your new horse to your property.

Lofty

7yo Battle Paint gelding. Unfortunately with us being struck down with covid Lofty has had minimal work, but is progressing beautifully none the less.

Small jumping video will come this week also, Lofty's jump is only comparable to a purebred warmblood, we are currently sticking to installing basic buttons on the flat, he loves to jump and finds it very easy.

Get in soon before his price goes up, or we will just keep him for the TiES series and he will be off the market.
