JWS Dakoda

$22000
Listing Status: Current
Location:
JWS DAKODA 9yo 16hh Tuahu Clydie X Fresian. We have owned Koda since he was 5 when he came to me as a sale on behalf and never left. He’s been an extremely special part of our family, being bought for my mum while she battled cancer and was her returning to riding horse. At 5, he had wisdom beyond his years, the horse you’d put anyone on, canter bareback down the beach, swim, go anywhere, tackle obstacles etc. There was nothing you didn’t feel safe conquering with him and hence why we bought him. Since then, he’s played Mr Reliable for mum well. Pull out of the paddock with months off and be the exact same. And in amongst that I’d borrow him, if one of my own were lame. He’s an easy keeper, great doer, barefoot and never been lame. Floats great. Beach, and river swum, farm and hill hacked, the same at shows or at home. Loves being in work and having a job but very equally, loves attention and being just a snuggle bug paddock mate. He’s dabbled in everything from obstacles/ working equitation, champions and reserves on the flat, eventing (65 competitively but xc schooled 95), show jumped up to 85cm, dressaged with mum level 0&1 & now training very impressively Elementary with shoulder in, travers, and mediums being taught easily & more recently show huntered for placings. His rhythm and jump is divine and so lovely and steady. I really think he’d excel in show hunter and I said at 5yo that I’d be surprised if he didn’t go to HOY in this field. But he equally could make it there for working hunters, dressage or saddle hunters. Stunning type with good bone. Still green in the jumping aspect due to it not being the riders focus however he thoroughly enjoys it, sometimes needs support from his rider when it’s something he hasn’t seen before but there is nothing nasty anout this horse!! So genuine and sweet 🤍 The most exceptional brain, really in tune with his rider and so easy to teach. If unsure, he politely says so and if you give him a moment to process, he’s away and won’t think twice about it again. On the flat he tries incredibly hard and picks up things very quickly. He had a run in with a truck early on and since then is wary of loud engines or trailers. We can lead him up behind the motorbike and tractor go past daily plus fine with cars on the road, but louder vehicles can make him tense. He is absolutely fine on quieter roads. We’d love him to go to a first hack, young adult type. Although he looked after mum super, he is more woah than go but has quite an engine for a nervous or anxious rider and because he is so intune with his rider we’d prefer he went to someone confident or relaxed ☺️ 5* home only. This is an incredibly hard sale of a much loved member of our family. No time wasters. We would love him to go to a home that can be absolutely vouched for otherwise we won’t sell.

CDS Donero

“CDS Donero” (Norie) 16hh 2016 gelding, Donnerubin/Flemmingh/Weltmeyer. Norie is an absolute dude, who has been successfully campaigned to level 3 dressage with many wins and placings along the way. He is a lovely ride, more whoa than go (but is also easy enough to perk up for the rider who enjoys more sensitivity), safe, and not spooky. Norie has three expressive, swinging paces with plenty of ability to continue his trajectory up through the grades. He is schooling medium level with all lateral work established, and his changes very nearly completely installed. Norie would be best suited to a rider with competitive aspirations, who is confident in their groundwork.

Rocklanz Shokolade

“Rocklanz Schokolade” (Mouse) 166.5cm 2009 Brown/Black mare Rockstar/Landioso Mouse is the ultimate competitive schoolmistress for a capable rider! With many accolades in the show ring to HoY level (she was 3rd in the Riding Horse of the Year title in 2024), and multiple wins and placings to medium level in the dressage arena, Mouse has a lot to teach her next very lucky new person. She is foward off the leg, super easy in all of her lateral work, and has her flying changes in. Mouse is an expressive mover with a big engine, but at the same time is a very safe and reliable ride. She is very workmanlike and loves having a job to do. She has been beautifully schooled and produced, and is ready to head out this season and, in the right hands, carry on with her competitive ways. We would love to see her with a capable young rider to teach them the ropes. Mouse has so much to offer someone - though they might have a hard time prying me off her 😅

Windrush Digby

Windrush Digby (Digby) 14hh 17y/o Warmblood gelding Sire: Davidoff Dam: Greenlee Actress We are looking for a fun home where digby will get lots of variety out as a happy hacker! He loves going to the beach, forest, swim down the river and road riding. Digby can find life very exciting sometimes so he will require a confident rider with soft hands. Great for the dentist, farrier, to worm, happy to float or truck. Can be a pain to catch sometimes but will always come to a carrot! Digby will come with some rugs and his bridle. Saddle is available at an extra cost. Digby has been with us for 5 years now and we are looking for a home that will love him as much as we do! Available as a lease (local) or purchase.

Live and Learn

Brandy is a lovely wee thing, just needs to further her education now. She has a floaty movement on the flat and had popped a few jumps up to 80cm , very brave and honest on that front. While a racehorse she often trained down the roadsides so has that under her belt already. She is going to be a supermodel in the right hands. Photos don’t do her justice. She’s stunning already and will only improve as she lets down properly and muscles up. A sweet but sensitive girl who is lovely to have around. *Note* currently in her winter coat, summer pics are from when she first arrived Pm for more information, video on request or search her up on Driftwood Sport Horses Ltd on Facebook

Patch

Patch is still figuring out the contact and right lead canter, but every ride is more positive. He’s a lovely boy to ride, does need an assertive person on the ground though just to keep his manners from slipping. In saying that we have no problem with him at all and find him easy to have around and do anything with. 16hh, 6yr old Belardo gelding (we love the Belardo offspring around here). Will definitely jump and tidy enough on the flat for dressage. Has a wee tear from a previous injury in his nostral which does not effect him in any way, just cosmetic (check pic). In the right hands he would be a good TiES contender or eventer. A little tender in barefeet currently so might have to get a set of fronts popped on.

LK Super Deluxe

LK Super Deluxe - Romeo 16h 11yo Thoroughbred gelding by Super Easy Competed 1* Eventing, 110cm sj and level 2 dressage with potential for more. Romeo is a kind, uncomplicated ride who always tries his hardest. He is a nice balance of forward but not hot, just moves nicely off your leg. Can be more keen on Cross Country but still always ridden in a snaffle. Established on the flat with laterals and lengthening. Good to hack alone and in company. Farm, hills etc Good to handle, bring up on his own and for the farrier etc. Good to truck and floats well but not main form of transport, so can take a moment to remember how to back off. Romeo can be affected by certain grass. It’s very easily managed (we run him on sandhill grass and he’s great) with the right facilities but his price reflects this. Heartbreaking sale of a much loved family member! Romeo is such a lovely boy and his family will miss him very much. Only available to a 5* home. For sale on behalf Located Kapiti Coast
