- Heart-breaking sale of our much loved mare, Belle (due to change in circumstances and our daughter's lack of time whilst she focuses on exams, then travel.)
Belle has taken our daughters from ponies to horses, taking them confidently from 70cm - 1m+. She has been with us for 3 years.
AES Passport - Losebys Chandracoon.
Irish Sports Horse x Warmblood. Bay mare
16yrs old (DOB 27.05.09) 15.3hh
Belle (stable name) has done all PC activities including camps, rallies, beach rides, comps incl 90; 100 SJ @ Hickstead; HT to 100; and children-friendly Hunts with SUH
**Highlights - experience competing across PC, RC, GO BE, NSEA**
*Regional PC Champs Eventing placed 8th (80), 2023;
*90HT placed 4th (one second between top placings!) @ Littleton Manor, Oct 2023;
*GOBE 90 at LMEQ finishing 5th, Oct 2023;
*Chipstead RC HT90/95 @ East Bysshe placed 4th, Sept 2024
*NSEA HT @90 placed 3rd, Nov 2024 (with my younger daughter 14yrs)
*Sadly BE 2024 event was cancelled but lovely clears in the replacement combined training event at 90/100 (SJ + XC) , Oct24 (with younger daughter)
Currently training at 90-100 but would happily step down for her rider. Excels at XC, strong SJ, fair dressage and can produce a lovely test but needs more time put into this discipline.
Experienced mare with low mileage as we haven't had the time this season to compete.
Hacks alone or in company. Snaffle-mouthed
Loved & admired by all at her current yard
No injuries or niggles.
She needs a competent rider as she is not a novice ride. She can spook so needs a confident rider who is happy to take control. Once she's focused, and with consistent training and a regular routine, she thrives and flies! Time should be spent on the ground building a bond to reach your full potential as a team.
**Excellent Ground Manners**
Great ground manners once settled in her environment.
Enjoys being fussed over and long grooms.
Good for farrier
Travels alone and in company. Easy to load.
Good around dogs and younger children - Often hacking with our dog off the lead. Very patient and gentle when asked to do pony rides for young cousins
She is best stabled but has lived out previously. Current lives in a mixed herd.
**So hard to pick photos and videos. Oodles of footage on our daughters' Instagram profiles:
