Jack-Thomas Watson, Northumberland.
2nd one down on his FB.

16.3hh 15yo Chestnut ISH Gelding.
Ballymolloy Rogan established at Advanced Medium with the capability to go on further. Enjoys his jumping and adores crossing country
The kindest horse to have at home and a pleasure to hack out, alone or with company. Recently completing some BE100s and very pleased to be out. We have also taken him autumn hunting and he behaved impeccably, having not hunted for several seasons. Rogan has so many plus points to boast, but the icing on the cake is his safety and the confidence riders feel when training with him. A striking, well educated and easy going horse that someone will be very lucky to have.
Belsay, Northumberland.

Any of the unbacked HW cobs from Aughrim Stables.

Just did a Google, and it turns out that that Aughrim Stables are already well regarded on HHO.

This lot have sold, but there’s always nice types coming in.

An example about how to turn a horse out properly and take really good photos. If these were in the rough, all hair and badly presented I wonder how many would see under the hair. I remember in a book by Barbara Woodhouse how she bought a rough looking horse, gentled it, clipped it out and the person she bought it off saw it, didn't recognise it and bought it back off her. Presentation is so important and these people are masters of it. Lovely cobs.

They are really lovely and your right they look totally different all grown out.

I worked for someone who had show cobs and I spent most of my time clipping and washing them, it's hard work especially if they are mainly white I must admit I don't miss it🤣🤣

I like the 14.2 bay mare he's got on there.

I rather like this mare. She’s just for sale 2 years too soon for my life plans!

She’s very smart. I love her white socks!
 
I rather like the look of Skippy, mainly because it’s an excellent name for a horse.

Too young and too short for me, but perhaps some growing still to do, and extremely cute.

Well I went to see a pony this weekend. He was exactly what I wanted and what I've been missing - small, buzzy, and a fantastic little jumper. He went to dressage the day after I viewed him and won a Novice despite being VERY green. I have absolutely no interest in competitive dressage but I really think he could be something special. Feel slightly sick at the prospect of spending the money, all of my horses have been cheap projects or ex racers, but I'm thinking of it as a 30th present to myself... I'm desperate to get jumping at a decent level again, hopefully win a couple of rosettes and just have some fun after years of broken Thoroughbreds. If he doesn't pass the vetting, I'll be gutted!

Is this the bonkers Bay gelding? He does look fun, and an excellent way to mark your birthday - hope all goes well!
