Mount Walk trot canter jump included
Update getting out hacking and loving it. Long rein, not spooky and no jog!

Really nice guy alert
Bear, 16.2 (guesstimate) 5yo Standardbred gelding
Bear is one my favourites to walk through the gate.
He is an absolute Labrador, a yes man, wears his heart on his sleeve!

While he has just recently been started, bear has taken to being ridden like he’s done it every single day of his life. Is very intelligent and picks up everything quickly.
He has elasticity throughout his body, soft mouth & nice paces and starting to work in a contact. Bear has an amazing canter, the best standardbred canter I’ve ever ridden ( & I’ve ridden a lot of Standardbreds!!!)

He has been out on a wee walk around out side the arena and as to be expected he was a gentleman.
In full work and we are doing more with him daily.

His feet are in good shape & good for the farrier, bear is ALWAYS ready to be caught, bottom of the pecking order, stands tied perfect and is not girthy. Loves being groomed and patted, any attention is good attention if you’re bear!!

Is still letting down from being race fit, but he will look amazing in the future.

I’d love to see him go to a home who’s going to showcase him and how special he is. They don’t come up as cool as this guy very often!
(As a standardbred rehomer I’m allowed to say that!!)

'Silent Wings' Dressage/Showing/Hacking Schoolmaster. 15yr old 157cm TB by Dansk.

Sting is beautifully put together with gorgeous free movement and gets compliments everywhere he goes! Great to hack, not spooky, easy to handle, enjoys having a job and being around people. Well schooled on the flat and a pleasure to ride. Not clingy to other horses and loves going on the float for adventures!

He's previously won Novice and Open Park Hack Championships as well as Supreme Horse at the New Zealand Riding Pony Society show 2018 and he also won Champion Novice Park Hack at Canterbury A&P show the same year. He has also done some low level dressage with good results and has a lot of potential in this area.

Recently competed at Rai Valley A&P show after only being in work for a week and went Reserve Champion Novice and Open Park Hack with excellent comments from the judge.

He can jump however this hasn't been the focus for his current rider.

Sting does get grass affected so he needs his diet managed, and he is girthy so isn't suited to a nervous or beginner rider.

Up to date on teeth/worming/bodywork, has been xrayed (these showed no issues and available if requested), currently has front shoes on, is in work and ready to go!

He's a capable fun horse for a confident teenager or adult wanting to compete and hack.

Sadly he's not quite the right fit for his current rider so he is looking for a new home.

A classy young NZTB with a big heart and plenty of character.

Chad has recently retired after a short racing career but we feel his future is bright in the sporthorse arena.  He had one win and was easy to have in the barn, his best was early in his starts and was unable to back it up.

During his racing preparations he spent a couple of weeks schooling with Jump Start and has returned to be rehomed.  We like to think Chad just liked it with us.  Has been brought into work slowly after a 8 week plus spell and let down period.  He has shown no dirty behaviour and has been enjoying the more relaxing lifestyle.

A more sensitive type under saddle but is sensible.  I feel he would suit a rider who is understanding of a work balance and is able to provide more education and training to secure his future.   In return I believe he will try hard to please, be a best mate and develop into a genuinely fun allrounder.  Chad has started basic jumping, farm hacking and basic flat schooling. He is starting to be happy in his own company and interactions with his handler over his horse buddy’s.

Recently had his dental, health check, shod all round and up to date with vaccinations/worming.  He has no know issues but has been seen to windsuck.  Price is negotiable and potential homes must be able to provide a reference.

5yr old 16.1hh TB mare by Press Statement. Ash is a strapping young mare with a big future ahead of her!

She has recently retired from racing and taken to her sport horse career incredibly well she has a nice soft mouth, quality paces and the start of a super jump. I would love to land this mare in a competitive home where she is given the ability to get out and showcase her talents She has been for a hack round the farm and enjoyed getting out and about away from the arena!

She can be mareish to handle on the ground and towards other horses and she is a big unit so for those reasons I think she needs a more capable home than some others we have through but equally I think her abilities justify someone a bit more competent picking her up

Pablo has done a couple of weeks with us now and we are pretty happy we have his dream home sussed out for him so if it sounds like a bit of you flick us a message!

8yr old 16hh TB gelding by Niagara. He has HEAPS of hacking miles under his belt including the beach, forest and quiet roads. He really enjoys getting out for an adventure and goes alone or in company (he hasn’t been in a big group) happy as larry. His flat work is coming along nicely with the basics feeling pretty solid and there is plenty of quality to his paces as he starts to boogie. He is popping round wee jumps but lacks confidence in this department still and does prefer to have a wee looksie before jumping at the start of the session.

He’s a lovely horse to have around and handle, floats and trucks well alone or in company. Good for the farrier (currently shod in front and barefoot behind), paddocks with mates or in his own paddock. No vices on the ground we have seen. He hasn’t shown any bad behaviours under saddle here but he has given his previous owner a couple of frights under saddle when fresh. He arrived to us out of work and has been totally fine to bring back in but also want to make sure we do get it right for him so if you can’t cope with a bit of fresh behaviour he’s probably not the horse for you.

Lottie is a 5yr old 16.2hh approx TB mare by Per Incanto. She has had a spell since she finished racing and arrived to us just over a week ago currently barefoot and coping fine although we will pop some fronts on her if she’s hanging around and doing more work!
She has been a really kind and genuine mare to jump on and pick up her new job. Happily walk, trot, canters both ways on a soft rein but doesn’t really understand working in a frame yet. She has been super bold to jump in her three schooling sessions so far, better over solid fences at this stage but not going to be a hard mare to get going quickly she’s beyond brave!

Lottie has loved getting out round the farm and happily heads off for a hack on her own leaving her mates and cruises back in on a soft rein.
She has been nice to handle and have around, she does show signs of having mild shivers when asking her to back up on the lead but can pick up her back legs and is a nice sound looking mare on the whole

I think Lottie’s ideal home would be as a fun all rounder to do a bit of everything with, she’s taking everything in her stride so far and seems a nice sort. I’d put her in the good first TB category. She’s going to be fairly forgiving of someone learning how to produce a young horse!
