LAVENDER HILL KSNZ 5yr old 15.3hh Registered NZWBA mare by Senator VDL out of a TB mare. Lav has been with me for the last year and has been a genuine youngster to produce, she is soft and willing on the flat with a super canter, brave and careful to jump with good natural instincts and enjoys getting out and about hacking! I see this mare thriving in an Eventing home with a competent junior or smaller adult wanting a straightforward but capable young horse with plenty of potential to travel up through the grades. Equally would suit a Jumping home or just someone that wants to do a bit of everything.

Charlie is a super fun wee chap that is also capable of stepping up the grades in a competitive home. He has been lightly competed and is ready to get out consistently in his new home. With us he has been ridden by a range of riders from professionals through to 14yr olds and PC level riders. A genuine youngster who has been a pleasure to produce so far. He is working kindly on the flat, happily hacks out round the farm on his own or in company, goes bareback, jumping up to 1.10m at home over SJ’s and schooling round 95cm XC. He is a nice compact horse that is easy to put together and has shown no dirt having arrived to us as a green 4yr old straight off the break. Charlie is good to truck and float, currently barefoot although is good to shoe, happily waits his turn in the tie ups, paddocks alone and with company and is just a good sort to have around the place and enjoy.

Rocky, 8yo 159cm (smidgen under 15.3) gelding by Badlands Hannover. Well let down, in great condition ready to go! Rocky has been great to have around right from the start. Took to being ridden very well. Loves hacking out, river rides, no bank or dip too scary for Rocky. Takes his time and always finds a good path. Great for all grooming, floats perfectly, goes on the truck. Stands tied & isnt girthy. Excellent solid feet, walks out well. Stands well while others do stuff around him. (super videoing platform!) The arena isn’t his happy place, he doesn’t have any interest in going in a contact or showing off any fancy foot work, he is more like an off roading/farm truck! Canter is there but it is a bit elusive. In the arena he can looky, happy to go into detail about this, HOWEVER, out side of the arena he is very happy and hasn’t spooked once, including when 500 ducks flew out while we’re at the river!! Wanting to go farming. Would make an excellent mustering, farm hack or high country/cavalcade horse. All inquiries to Ardlussa Equine, there is videos of him too. We are in Riversdale, Southland.

“RL Opening Night” ‘Sassy’ is an 8yo 15.2hh black crossbred mare. Sassy is as safe as houses to ride, with three lovely paces and easy to get together. She has the basics well established, and with her owner has had success at unregistered training level dressage. She is ready to compete at preliminary level, and while with us she is further establishing novice level movements such as counter canter and leg yield. With her previous owner, Sassy was successful in the park hack ring, bringing home multiple wide ribbons at A&P level. While not her owners focus, she has also been lightly jump schooled and shows plenty of ability and bravery. Sassy is good to handle, but can be on the pushy side - so needs someone capable of setting clear boundaries. Sassy is a very cool mare with plenty to offer. Her current owner got her to get back into riding, and her previous owner was a young rider - which speaks volumes for her temperament and reliability! $11,000

Charlie is a 6yo 16hh standardbred gelding by Creatine (trotter) raced as Itaintnecessarilyso. Recently retired from racing, Charlie arrived to me to be started under saddle and rehomed. Unfortunately due to an injury (not from any of my horses!) I am unable to ride for a few weeks and needing to reduce my numbers so he is available as is. He has not been ridden, however is more than ready to get going. Up to date with drench and hooves, has had a course of ulcer treatment and some bodywork. Charlie is good to handle, but can be a bit of a grump so does require someone confident and experienced to get the best from him. Has trucked and angle floated to my knowledge. He is a nice athletic type and I can see him being a nice horse for dressage and showing in time. To enquire about charlie please email or text with a bit about your experience and potential plans for him.
