Arriving in Ocala this week with some lovely sales horses! Reach out for more information!

🦄 2018 bay Selle Francais gelding by Diamant de Semilly out of a Cassini I mare. 16.2h with a thick build. He has show miles through 1.15m with a pro and 1.0m with amateurs and juniors. Schooled to 1.25m with additional scope and is kind and forgiving. Super sweet boy who loves to cuddle. Kick ride on the flat but has a motor in the ring. Radiographs & PPE on file for serious parties. P or L options. High mid fives P; low mid fives L. L to P also available!

🦄 2016 16.3h bay Dutch Warmblood gelding by Apiro. A lovely and sweet boy who aims to please. He is extremely uphill and very comfortable to ride - like cantering around in a couch! Trainer owned with low show mileage due to no fault of his own. Scope for 3’6”, just needs someone to put the time in. Will be a great Eq/derby mount. He is kind and very easy to manage. They type every trainer wants in the barn. Get him at a steal for under mid fives before we start showing him. Subject to increase afterwards.

🦄 2013 13.2h carded Welsh palomino pony with lots of chrome. Division quality pony who just made his green debut in December with top ribbons. Will easily qualify for Pony Finals 2025. Has a green change and lands all his leads with a kid. Very safe and very fancy. Easy to manage. Always comes out the same. Hack winning movement. Needs finishing in a program but has all of the pieces needed to win. Will also do well in the model. Mid fives.

🦄 2019 17h chestnut Thoroughbred gelding. This guy is extremely calm and brave and a true Hunter type. Competed at the Retired Racehorse Project in 2023 finishing 9th in Show Hunters out of 94 horses and 9th in Eventing out of 88! He is quiet, easy, fancy, and fun to ride! Great candidate for the 3’ TB Hunter classes, could play in the lower derbies as well. Amateur friendly. Extensive PPE and radiographs available to interested parties. Low fives.

🦄 2018 bay Thoroughbred gelding. 17.2h. Talented upper level prospect with a good jump technique and a nice feeling on the flat. He is a smart and hard worker - giving you the best of what a TB has to offer. Currently coursing 1.0m at home. Winning rated show miles to .85m. Clean, easy lead change both directions. Excellent candidate to clean up in the 1.0m TB jumpers but has scope for bigger classes too. Needs an experienced handler on the ground as he sometimes has big feelings 😂 but he is very safe and super fun to ride! Will be picky about where he goes. Low fives.

Sneak peek at this new kid on the block, Lyrical (aka Lyle)! We are super excited about this big gentle giant by Apiro. He will be with us getting some show mileage in Ocala before hitting the market! Keep your eyes out for him - we think he’s going to make a stellar 3’6” equitation horse! 🥰

▪️2018 bay Thoroughbred gelding. 17.1h. Talented upper level prospect with a good jump technique and a nice feeling on the flat. He is a smart and hard worker - giving you the best of what a TB has to offer. Currently coursing 3’ with some 3’3” oxers sprinkled in. Clean, easy lead change both directions. Excellent candidate to clean up in the 1.0m TB jumpers but has scope for bigger classes too. Best suited for an experienced rider with big goals.

▪️2024 Oldenburg Elite Premium & Site Champion Jumper C**t by 1.45m jumper and Canandian champion hunter derby star, Light My Fire (Light On/Stakkato), out of a Premium GOV TB dam who has shown hunters and dressage. “Loki” has an exceptionally quiet temperament, a strong and correct build, and beautiful, floating movement in all three gaits. He was named a stallion prospect at his recent Oldenburg inspection due to his exceptional quality. A true top prospect for the hunter or the jumper ring. I can see him out at Green Incentive Finals in a few years! Preference for a professional home that will develop him to his full potential.

Sire is currently competing in the 1.35m in Europe and quickly climbing up the levels. Dam, Sophia Fab, who competed to 1.35m and 2* eventing herself, is an amazing producer with young offspring performing exceptionally well in the Young Horse Show Series.

Tiny brag on some of our recent sales horses thriving in their new homes! Sales graduate V.E. Third Time’s A Charm was Champion in the Children’s Jumpers with his new rider last weekend in California and OHF Un Believable had his first outing with his new kiddo at Texas Rose Horse Park this past weekend taking home top ribbons as well! Feeling very blessed to be able to help match these horses with their new homes!

We will have openings in our sales consignment program in March and are looking for horses suitable for intermediate riders to jump 2’6”-2’9”. Bonus if they have a lead change! Most of our sales horses find their new homes within 30 days of listing! DM us for more information on how to reserve a space for your horse!

A very special unicorn is available for lease!
🦄 Yellowstone HF 🦄
2012 15.3h Quarter Horse gelding

Dijon is an absolute barn favorite and sainted all around good boy. He has taken many young riders from their first cross rails to their first rated shows and is a judge favorite with many champion and reserve ribbons to his name. Ride him ba****ck in a halter, on the trail, at the show, anywhere or anything you want to do he is ready to go! Dijon also schools all of 1st level dressage and some 2nd level movements. He is a true confidence builder and is as safe and reliable as they come.

He is currently looking for a young rider or an adult amateur with prior riding experience who would enjoy improving their flatwork and jumping up to 2’. He loves to horse show and would enjoy having a partner who wants to attend a few local or rated shows per year.

Dijon is extremely special to us so we will be picky about finding his perfect long term partner!

On site lease at our farm in Fayetteville only.
Lessee must take lessons in our program.
PM for more information and videos!
