very loving and gentle in the field and the stable, like a lamb to groom ect. loves his quiet hacks and short canters, can get a bit fussy if he wants to go faster in canter when hes told to slow down and likes to have his own way most of the time. but love him to pieaces and wouldnt change him

Dyna Venus aka Belle
6 Yrs old 16.3hh, typical mare loves a cuddle but can easily turn round and give you a quick nip, naughty munchkin! Despite her age is often used as escorts on hacks for confidence giving and is doing well with continued education and has just started going to her first few parties!

Hi,
Here is my ISH she is out of a TB mare by a full ID stallion (Embla Statesman)
She is 5 and she is an angel ..As you can see from the few pictures she is versitile and takes everything in her stride. She is my rocking chair and the horse i can trust 100%. She is laid back and enjoys her work. I wouldnt swap her for the world. Are you thinking of buying one ?

This is Lucky:
She is a mix of a few things, but is ISH. Her mum is by an Irish TB with some other bits mixed in, and her Dad was by Cloverhill (ID) She is 5, and precocious, sharp, but really wants to do well by you! She is very clever, and quick to learn. This is her as a 4yr old after 2mnths under saddle,
She wouldn't be everybodies cup of tea, as you really can't pick a fight with her, but now we are getting a partnership, she is gorgeous.
This was my ISH before:
Absolutely GORGEOUS horse, easy to do, lovely to handle etc, very easy right from a 3yr old. Almost erred on the lazy side tbh! He has gone to be a lovely RC allrounder, where someone wants to look pretty
He was unknown breeding, but believed to be out of a coloured ISH stallion, by a "normal" TB x mare

Oh and tack/height wise etc, Lucky is in a MW saddle, with a full sized bridle. She is 15.3hh.
Goddy (the coloured) was getting towards 16.2hh, was a standard M in saddles, and was between a cob and full size bridlewise!!

Bobby 17hh 11yo.
A real softie!! very laid back for grooming and tacking up. Pretty fizzy when ridden though! Very fast walk! He used to be a huntsmans horse so he has been there done that, but has got his fair share of knocks, bumps and scars from it!! He has crappy feet though if I'm honest, crumbly and cracked when I bought him 3 year ago, my farrier says it is just due to poor care and shoeing, and the large crack he has next to a scar will likely be due to an accident a while back. Its only now that his feet are starting to look healthier.

Mac, 20 years - Sire Standard Bearer (tb), Dam Athenry Nellie (ID)
MW Saddle and full bridle, 16.3hh - eats for Britain and struggles with weight in winter, bit of a stress head at times but the loveliest nature and 'person' you'll ever meet!
Ellie 13 years, Sire Western Promise (ISH), Dam TB
M saddle, full bridle, 16hh, gains weight easily but also loses fast, can be a 'typical mare' but at the same time can be the most level headed and sensible girly when really needed.
These are the two I currently have but altogether I've owned 6 now and I wouldn't really look at anything else.

Cooper
15.2hh ISH gelding
He takes a wide saddle but has a large shoulder so needs a working hunter style saddle as a GP is too forward cut for him!
He is probably the cobbiest looking ISH on this thread so far. Unfortunately I have no breeding history.

Don, 7 y/o, 16.2hh, SF x TB x ID blue passported ISH.
Cheeky temperament, seems to have a very good memory for things!
Was jumping clears at 1m ad 1.10m as a 5 and 6 y/o before I bought him
Takes a full size bridle, I use an 18" med/wide saddle.
He wears 6'6" or 6'9" rugs (depends on the make)

It's alright, I'll join you
Well, not completely as still have the other horses, but the ISH will be going soon as up for sale
He's my complete darling and one in a million horse. Turned out the complete appostie of what we expected and got me back into jumping again, I owe him everything and he, nothing. I need to win the lottery. Or raise a couple of grand somehow :/Greystorm
