Available for LEASE / Long term loan - NOT FOR SALE.
Griffins Hall (Scotty) is a 9 year old gelding
Standardbred trotter
16hh - ish
Available for lease only to the best home in the Waikato.
Scotty is a hacking machine and would love a home where that is his main job! He enjoys all adventures, if in a group likes to be in front. Has had some basic flat schooling and does enjoy pole work and small jumps. Has done one inhand ribbon day and was a star. He is fantastic to handle, float (we have an angle) good to clip and perfect for the farrier.
Scottys ideal home is with a competent and confident adult rider who wants the best boy to spoil with love.
Scotty does gain confidence in new situations from his rider and therefore he is not suitable for a learner or novice rider.
Superstition
Tilly 2015 tb mare approx 15.2hh by Batchelor Duke. Showy type, can imagine her as a dressage type or park hack
Recently came back into work after a long break but settling into work well. Left lead canter still lacking bend but improving each ride. Does have a flat scar on hind leg but would cover easily.
A hotter type so suit someone with a cool seat.
Located Fernside, Canterbury

By Chance
Chance has 3 lovely paces, easy going lad. Been ott since May 22, 2025.
16hh 2020 tb gelding by Thunder Down Under.
Lovely boy, super sweet, will be someone's best mate. Has already done some arena time so will be easy to continue with. No know quirks, does like company though so not a one horse farm kind of home.
Does have a bulbous scar on his hind leg so won't make a show pony but lots of other options for him.
Located Fernside, Canterbury

Jack, 15.1 & 1/2hh standardbred gelding. Stout well built fella. Strong legs, solid body.
Friendly to catch, excellent doer. No vices while being tacked up. None under saddle either.
More woah than go under saddle. Can canter, has a wonderful transition but does take some leg to keep him cantering! Does jump small jumps kindly with out any dramas although he isn’t the most talented fella and isn’t a hot or fast type….
Very happy to hack out of the arena, goes on a long rein the whole time. Super polder when following, drop the reins and he’ll do the work. Happy to lead too, not spooky. We think a trekking horse will be right up his alley! Doesn’t kick others, docile friendly gelding guy, just wants to be friends with everyone.
Did sustain a small tear in his tendon or ligament (I can not remember which) He had a touch of swelling, no heat & was never lame. The vets recommended he have 3 months off and he can return to racing. He has had 6 months off, rescanned good to go, however his trainer has opted not to race him further, due to retirement from the industry (trainer.) and wanted to see his favourite horse retire with him.
We are assured this will cause him NO issues moving forward. Jack is sound as a bell.
Jack is a wonderful horse, ready to go and have an absolute blast with a new owner.
Flicker has an amazing temperament and manners, he is an easy stallion, stays behind normal fences and break fences, suitable for an experienced horse home as a 1st stallion.
He moves very well, is great conformationally and is very intelligent. He is great to handle, travel, loves being pampered. He is inquisitive and brave.
He is AI trained; hand serves or runs with mares. He has foals on the ground, and I have 2 due in spring.
He would also be a fantastic kids pony if gelded.
For sale as not wanting to breed much anymore, and we have extensive flood damage and have lost feed (hay, grass) and paddocks.
11yo, 15hh SB mare Bow. Rosinupthebow is her race name.
I have having trouble uploading photos. Loads available on Ardlussa Equine
Bow, a great mum to two foals is now ready to get onto her third career. Retired sound.
She had 57 starts, 2 wins, 6 seconds, 5 thirds & two filly foals.
Bow came to us to be started under saddle and she was very much “broke to ride” no questions asked - turned out she was already broke to ride in her race career! The extent I’m not sure but definitely not as “green” as some of our others.
She’s great to mount, trots and has an exceptional canter! Very balanced and will keep it for laps and laps. Very rarely paces unless coming back from canter. Great bareback, jumps over small jumps well. LOVES getting out hacking, on the buckle. Was a touch quicker when we turned back around to come home but wasn’t anything hard to manage and then went back to a long rein very quickly.
Hasn’t really spooked at anything in her time here. Not a more “woah than go” type in the arena; loves having a job to do, can take a few half halts to get the speed you want, in the same breath once you’ve got your speed you can drop your reins and she will cruise!!!
This horse will suit anything! I could honestly see her being a fun we farm hack low level mount for a farm teen to zoom around on. Working EQ, trekking, loves to work could do endurance or cavalcade ETC. She is a boss in the paddock, may be a red ribbon at events.
Does have a couple of quirks, can be a brat to catch at times, can be a touch girthy, doesn’t like hard/plastic brushes (fine with soft brushes), does have some seedy toe but regular trims should bring her right & when she first arrived had a cheeky habit of dragging handler to grass etc like a 12hh pony! This has settled but would need to go to a confident handler so it doesn’t come back.
We will continue to do more with her, price will increase the more she does
