Jackpot Joey

Gallery Leave a comment

Beautiful gelding by 5* Nations cup stallion KEC Maximum Joe out of a Zirocco Blue mare. Joey is born in 2012 (6years in 2018), 165cm. (Link to the respective stallion showjumping).

Joey was broken to ride as a 4 year old but was then turned away due to personal circumstances. He has now been brought back into work and has settled really well.

Joey is riding well and is ready to be brought out to some competitions shortly. He also works well on the ground and could well do dressage.

This horse is subjected to a range of fences, both xc and sj. He is keen to jump and does not worry about how the fence looks. He rides out in group or alone.

Handling

There are never any problems with handling this horse, clipping, loading, washing, loading or shoeing no problems!!

Future

We believe Joey has a good and athletic jump that together with his psyche and willingness to jump could bring him far in the sport. He could also suit as an eventer. Joey is indeed a very suitable name as he has a very springy and scopey jump just like a joey (baby kangaroo).

Film and further photos to follow shortly.

A gelding born in 2012 (6 years old in 2018). 138cm.

This pony is a very friendly soul. A perfect plod to teach the noble art of riding. He is still learning the finer details but is a fast learner and is the perfect prospect for a riding school.

Freddy jumps with joy and doesn’t mind what the fence looks like. He is a comfortable kind ride and aims to please.

Milchem Keeper (sold)

Gallery Leave a comment

Absolute top class 138cm showjumper (13’2).

This pony will no doubt go all the way in the right img_9254hands. She is an absolute machine! Born in 2012 she is now 6 years. Has already got 30 SJI points accumulated in very few shows jumping up to 90cm as a 5 year old. For this year there is a lack of rider and she has not officially jumped, she is though kept going and today clocked up some clear rounds at 1-1,10m. No trouble clearing 120m.

Results: Showjumping Ireland link.

Breedingimg_9253

Keeper is by the Contender stallion Contra A out of a 13’1  mare, who in turn is out of a 12’2 Grade A showjumper who went to the RDS (Royal Dublin Society) Dublin Horse Show.

Milchem Keeper is full sister to He’s a Keeper (148cm) Grade A showjumper, She’s a keeper who is jumping in Finland, Tulibards X Factor who is eventing in the UK and another pony that is jumping in Sweden.

She has also bred two foals.img_9256

Temperament

This is a forward going competition pony. She is well ridden and responds well to aids. She travels well and responds well when at competitions. She is easy to care for in all aspects such as grooming, clipping, loading etc.

Future

We believe this is a top class pony that has the img_9257capability to go all the way. We see her in a competitive home. With her top class breeding she also has a good value as a broodmare.

Foxhall Diggit (2008) 10 year old gelding, 148cm, piebald. Jumping / eventing pony.img_9056

Abilities

Diggit is one of those seldom seen saints! He is absolutely kindness personified. He tries his very best and even if the rider fails he still does everything in his power to help. This is the real babysitter pony. Having said this, he has still got the capacity to jump bigger fences and the courage of going cross country. Diggit rides out alone and in company and is used to traffic, farm equipment etc etc. He is also used to a wide variety of fences both cross country and showjumps. img_9053

Shows and competitions

Diggit has hunted a lot with his previous owner and has also done cross country and showjumping at local shows. There is never a problem travelling with Diggit, he takes everything in his stride and remains calm at shows etc.img_8925

Future

We feel that Diggit would suit someone who wants to improve their riding skills and go competing at shows both eventing and jumping. He would also suit for hunting where he really cares for his rider. Diggit would suit very well for a riding school as well.

Trailers; trailers and more trailers!!

In the past i was the main agent of Ifor Williams Trailers in Sweden.

Ifor Williams Trailer HB511 in black
Ifor Williams Trailer HB511 in black

Looking back it was a fabulous time and I truly miss it. Life moves on and I have been busy with life, my herbs and horses.

The trailers are still there in my mind tough and I’m going at this job again!!! Slightly differently but still… I feel I have plenty to offer as I have a lot of experience both in the trailers themselves and in transporting horses.

This is what I offer!!

I can offer any British, Irish or French trailers, new or used with coc document, delivered to Sweden 🇸🇪. Best deals are to be had on new trailers. As I get offers best price may vary so send me a message and I’ll give you a price on your trailer of choice!! I do this in the opposite direction too!!! Anyone in Britain or Ireland interested in a Scandinavian trailer?! I can arrange that too!!!

What do I need to do with the trailer once in Sweden?

Firstly the trailer needs to be entered into the Trafikstyrelsen register. This is an easy process and only takes a few minutes online. You are then given a reference number and an application form. Print the form, sign it and send together with the coc document and the invoice stating the serial number of the trailer.

Direct link to Transportstyrelsen

Hejsan!

Jag har tidigare varit generalagent för Ifor Williams Trailers i Sverige. Det var en underbar tid och så här i efterhand när man ser tillbaks på den tiden så var den underbar. Efter att ha transporterat hästar, sålt hästar etc under ett flertal år känner jag att tiden är mogen att börja om igen. Om än på ett lite annorlunda sätt.

Vad erbjuder jag?!

Jag ken erbjuda Brittiska, Irländska och Franska trailers, nya eller begagnade med coc dokument. De allra bästa erbjudandena finns på nya trailers. Jag får hela tiden kampanjpriser så om du skulle vara intresserad av en offert skicka mig ett meddelande så kommer jag tillbaka så fort jag kan. Självklart ingår frakten till Sverige.

Vad behöver du göra när trailern kommer till Sverige?

Först av allt fyller du i en importanmälan på trafikstyrelsens hemsida. den är enkel att fylla i och tar bara några minuter. Du får då en blankett som du skriver ut och skriver under. Du skickar sedan blanketten tillsammans med coc dokument och fakruran på trailers till Trafikstyrelsen.

Direktlänk till blanketten

Du behöver sedan ta din vagn till besiktning, efter detta är allt klart!

OBS!! COC dokument för Ifor Williams Trailers gäller enbart för full totalvikt. Du kan således inte reducera totalvikten.

Fill your new trailer with some lovely horses…

Mick (sold)

Gallery 6 Comments

Gelding 148cm, born in 2011.

Mick, a potential show jumping pony,  is most likely a thoroughbred/ pony cross. This pony is alert and loves to please. There is great potential as he jumps with great scope and moves very well. He has shown that there are plenty to come and we believe he will do well both as a show jumper and an eventer.

Jumping

We are currently schooling Mick over both show jumping and XC fences. He is very honest and is a very fast learner. Our pony rider has been to a few pay and jumps with good results and will shortly start going to bigger shows with Mick.

Temperament

Mick has a very nice temperament and he is so very kind to handle. There are never any issues with grooming, clipping, washing, shoeing or loading.  Mick goes out in the field alone or with other horses, he is one of those that just float around without causing any upset and when you want him he is easy to catch. He travels well and keeps his calm when ridden in new places.

Future

We believe Mick would suit competitive teenager who would like to go up through the grades.

Jumping pony

Gelding born in 2007, bay, 148cm.

This is a fabulously positive jumping pony, he just loves life and lives to please. He definitely deserves the very best in life. He jumps tracks of 1.10-1.20 easily and can do a tidy dressage test.

Temperament

He is the kindest in the stable with lovely manners, keen to cuddle and loves a good scratch (good to handle in all ways including loading, clipping, washing, grooming and catching in the field).img_7552

We believe he suits someone who would love to compete and have rosettes to show for it. He could also suit ridingschool.img_7518

So to the catch….

There is possibly a trotter in the breeding somewhere which can be seen when the pony gets too much in a hurry. We have though seen that with a bit of groundwork this disappears. In any case it does not affect his ability to jump!

Update 10/05/2018

We have no consciously been working with Johnny to improve his gaits and his understanding of aids. This has proven very productive as he now almost never shows any signs of his previous trottery manners. This will no doubt continue to improve and has furthermore cemented our love for him. He is just such a tryer! Impossible to not love.

Lux Z Boy (sold)

Gallery 8 Comments

Lux Z Boy a 5yr old (*2013) bay Gelding by Lux Z – Cavalier Royale 165cm.

Lux Z Boy is a real looker with his white blaze and deep bay colour. He continues to impress with fabulous flowing movements and a very scopey jump. In addition he is very careful and loves to clear his fences. Furthermore he rides in a nice outline and would do a good dressage test.

Jumping career

We always attempt to school over a variety of fences both show jumps and across country hence we go to a selection of outdoors and indoors venues with different fences. By doing this, Lux Z Boy is continuously subjected to a huge selection of “looky looky” fences such as water complexes, ditches, water trays etc etc. This is proving to us again and again that he is focused on the task and does not easily get distracted. The willingness to learn and the great trust in the rider makes his potential and scope for jumping and eventing very high.

Shows

This glorious horse has started his showjumping career very well.  He has already clocked up 16 SJI points to date. This feat has been done in very few shows.  We are currently jumping at 1.10m level and are looking to move up shortly. We are in no hurry with this horse as we believe there are great things to come. Following link brings you to his Showjumping Ireland page where you can find his show jumping results.

https://www.sji.ie/Schedule/Search/Animals/Animal-Results/key/tD17De0oWK5dl3Vxb__fOw%3d%3d

Temperament

This horse is an absolute saint to handle! Working with him and around him is a joy and it feels safe and easy. All aspects included such as loading, washing, clipping, shoeing, grooming etc, there is nothing that presents as a problem. He is also an easy catch in the field. Lux Z Boy is an alert horse that responds well but even though he has the necessary spark to shine in the show ring he still keeps calm and makes no big deal of going to shows or new places schooling.

Future

Showjumping is a given for this talented horse. However it is our belief that because of his versatility he would be very well suited as an event horse. During XC schooling he shows his bravery and straight forwardness along with great scope. A horse that takes it all in his stride and definitely has a huge talent for the sport.

Tina doing well iat dressage

What a wonderful pocket rocket! Barnaboy Tina is a seriously honest horse, that would excel at eventing / showjumping,  as a hack or due to her fabulous temperament she could become a sought after riding school horse.

Temperament

Her stable manners are impeccable and she is a treat to care for (brushing, clipping, washing, shoeing and loading). When at competitions, Barnaboy Tina remains calm and concentrated even though she is alert and responsive to aids.

At home Tina is an easy catch in the field which makes life so much easier around the yard.

Jumping , movement and rideability

Tina moves well and have a scopey jet secure jump.  She is easy to follow and is a straight forward ride.  Tina is ridden out both in company and on her own, she is therefor well used to tractors, dogs, traffic and other things that might be encountered when out and about. We make a point of going to different places for schooling hence Tina is used to a selection of spooky fences both XC and show jumps.

Shows and outings

This marvellous horse is the prefect combination of a schoolmistress and potential comtetition horse. She has done pony club, combined training, hunter trials, mini eventing, showjumping and dressage. Nothing phases her, she really wants to please!

Future

We believe Barnaboy Tina would suit as a junior Eventer or for someone who wants to perfect their skills at eventing or showjumping. Because Barnaboy Tina has got such a wonderful temperament she would also be suitable for a riding school.

Barnaboy Ann

This is a seriously lovely pony. It is everything all wrapped into one. Annie has a great potential across country which has only partly been explored. She has evented, done ponyclub, showjumping and tried out dressage. Her forte is eventing and we believe she has the potential to go all the way. She easily jumps up to 1.10 – 1.15 and no type of fence fazes her.

Annie has hunted with amongst others The Grallagh Harriers and is very well liked for this job. She is very good with the hounds, is very surefooted and courageous.

Temperament. Annie is an angel, put a small kid on her back and she transforms into a family pony. She really takes care of her little riders. She is also extremely easy to do including clipping, washing, shoeing, loading etc etc.
