Ex-show pony- still scrubs up well. Bred 2 foals- in good shape for an older mare. Likes to be kept in regular work- can be mareish.
 
17Hands thoroughbred mare, has violent mood swings and only works when it fits in with her plans. Doesn't jump, only dressage and is a definite one person horse. Not very fit and likely to break down lame when older. 7 years old, free to knacker man.
 
Free to a good home.
42 year old Stallion (:eek:)
can be difficult to catch, can be very lazy at times and is a slow learner.
Can also get excited in company.
Needs to live in.
 
17hh 5 year old native x mare for sale as current owner sadly stuck in ITU after mare-related "accident". Not novice ride, loves children (can eat several in one sitting), very intelligent (enjoys inventing new ways of inflicting pain on owners), can turn a hoof to anything (if you can convince her it was her idea), hacks alone or in company (normally alone after depositing rider in nearest wheely bin) :)

Novice home only (who else would have her?).

Liable to buck off the wrong rider.

15hh veteran bay mare seeks good home with a slightly less taxing lifestyle. Been there seen it done it. Enjoys hunting and happy hacking. Can be mareish on occasions but otherwise willing and able.

Fine with dogs, cats & children, pony club camp, the lot. Nothing phases her. This little mare loves to be spoilt and would thrive in a home where she is the centre of attention and gets lots of treats.
 
17.3hh Well-built h/w part bred shire, pale dun mare, suit hunting or RC home, needs confident rider. Loves to jump, hack and hunt but does get excitable.

39 year old
Blue roan...(ak..using hair dye)

Snaffle mouth at all times, though occasionally could do with a muzzle to shut her up!
Previously been a broodmare and had two stunning fillies.
Has done hunting/showjumping/dressage.
Now just enjoys doing the odd fun jump/x country and local shows.
Lives in or out, but keeps better condition in the winter when stabled.
Gets on well with other horses, but can be shy to begin with.
Not at all mareish, but on ocassion can get a bit overexciteable.
Can drive, though carriages cannot be too large as she forgets her dimensions...!!

ahahaha i like this game!

Prefers dressage, hacking home.

Good to travel,catch etc and loves her food.
 
16.1hh Bay warmblood x welsh D with 2 white hinds for sale due to lack of time.

Lovely paces, does well at Dressage and has BD points.
Started jumping this year and really enjoys it.
Very good hacking out, heavy traffic etc., but gives the odd flower a wide birth.
Needs confidence as is a wimp
Can be lazy if she can get away with it
Spooks at her own shadow
Very gentle and loving

5* home only, preferably with awful grazing
 
type: ex-race horse
breed: Thoroughbred
height: 16 hands
colour: Bay
price: £500
county: Leicestershire

Lovely paces when sound - has had problems with splints! Spooky and highly strung at times, not novice ride. Loves jumping, has great ability but is very strong and is still a bit green as can get nervous with fillers. Bit of a show-off in Dressage - amazing extended trot. Loves to hack out alone and in company. Good in traffic. Very greedy, but needs to be fed lots as a bit of a poor doer! Lives in during the winter but will live out during the summer.

i to love this game. literally popped into my head this afternoon from no where. also i am only a palomino as its bleached lol
 
Bay cob with flaxen points - in the right eyes a stunner ;)

15.2hh enjoys dressage/jumping/competing. Won't usually bring home a rosette but does enjoy the participation. Realistically, limit is 2'9 but thinks can do much higher, so often a faulter in SJ. Barrel frame allows for slipping across most XC fences with a good coat of grease before setting off. If does win, don't expect to leave the ring for at least fifteen minutes after lap of honour commences as will want to enjoy her glory.

When fit, very capable, but often lazy and will throw in a buck if decides she doesn't want to play. Has done a stint in riding school but not tolerant enough to last long. Very sadly missed by the clients she did tolerate, and was very loyal to.

Excellent stable manners but cannot be turned out with other mares unless very submissive - quite the alpha! To the right owner, will make a loving lifelong friend.

£10 Ono :cool:
 
16.2 chestnut mare, warmblood x tb, 3 year old. Has been started, had a saddle & bridle on, been sat on, and been turned away to mature. Can be very silly and squealy, when in season VERY marish, EXPERIENCED people only. Can be very spooky, bargy, weaves. However, with routine, most of the time very sweet natured. Shows excellent paces for dressage when loose schooling, and has loose jumped to 1.40m - has amazing potential in any competitive sphere. Will take advantage when she thinks she can get away with it, but also loves to please. ;)

very impressed with your human to horse years maths xxx:)
 
Dark bay six year old Connemara. Impatient but brave and willing, snaffle mouthed but needs a quiet seat. Good doer, good feet, never sick or sorry. Cribs, hence price.

(I don't think you tell them that a calmer is needed in an ad, but it would be :P)
