I was going to ask specifically but this could be helpful to lots of us so I’ve altered the question.
What are you best gift ideas fir a horsey friend with various budgets

£10, £25 £50 and up?

Something useful that you’d appreciate?
 
I've bought my friend a sheepskin cover for her specific brand dressage girth, because it's what she asked for.

I always ask, so as not to waste money.

Boring but practical.
 
Headcollars with nameplates (old mill saddlery) and pyjamas with their horses/dogs face (Etsy) on have been done this year all £50 each.
Then I have also done some temu for the yard livery with a t.shirt (£8) saying wouldn’t pass the vet check or something similar.
Coaches/farrier get a decent bottle of something.
 
Wool socks
Gloves
Headband with LED light
Saddlepad
Flask / Thermos
Waterproof over trousers / chaps
A nice ‘working hands’ type handwash and moisturiser
A voucher for a tack shop
 
Socks, socks and more socks
Hand cream that moisturises deeply and disguises funky smells
Gloves, practical ones
Belts
One of those running belts that you stash your phone and car keys in for riding out
 
This year I seem to be doing quite a few saddlecloths. As long as they're not someone who doesn't use a variation in saddlecloths I figure they're something that another one of will always be used.
 
Gillet, fleecey jumper, leggings, base layer, socks.
Maybe a voucher for a horse shop.
Horse shoe earrings if they have ears pierced
 
I usually do a stocking for my liveries. I buy some nice, long boot socks, put one sock into the toe of the other sock, then fill the rest of the sock with little bits and bobs - a hand cream, lip sil, treats for the horse, a handful of Lindt chocs, and whatever else springs to mind. I’ve done snowglobes with a picture of their horse in them etc. Then I hang them up on their stable door on Xmas morning.
 
Fab horsey gifts I've received have been:
Saddle cover
Grooming bag
Breyer fjord horse
Sweatshirt saying 'I never fall off, I dismount with style'
Really nice lead rope
Waterproof gloves
