Lovely dark bay / black when rugged, 8yr old and 15hh standardbred gelding.

Good to brush, catch, rug, hose, float, with or without other horses, worm, take out to new places, ride ba****ck, around traffic and more.

Zac is fully up to date with worming, dental and hoof care. Currently being ridden with front shoes.

Zac has been off the track for 8 months, had a spell and then been used as a pleasure riding horse. He walks, trots and canters both on trails and in the arena. In this time he has also obtained lots of ground skills, obstacles, solo and group trail rides. But predominantly been a trail horse. He’s confident out riding down main roads, through paddocks and into forestry. He will cross bridges, narrow technical tracks and through water with no problems. He also will ride over poles, carpet and tarps with no hesitation.

Has been ridden by intermediate riders in the arena and on trail rides. A great allrounder gelding. He’s a soft soul whom will benefit from a kind, gentle home. He is not pushy and he tries his heart out to please you. He has a soft mouth and is sensible in all positions when trail riding with other horses but can jig - jog when riders hold his rein too short or have a wobbly lower leg that tends to bump against him in the faster paced. He would be best suited as a trail riding mount for a teen or small adult looking to pleasure ride and enjoy him.

Zac has been one of my most favourite Standardbreds who has been through our retraining program and it’s a bit sad his time has come to find a new home.

He does suffer from mild Queensland itch, where I keep him in a day combo (no hood) full time and once a fortnight wash him in quit itch which seems to keep it maintained. It only affects the top of his tail and a tiny bit behind his ears.

Genuinely quiet, give anything a go, rising 7yrs, black, 15.1hh standardbred gelding.
This lovely fella was prepped for racing as a trotter - not pacer - and never made it to the track as they didn’t feel he enjoyed it.
Since then he’s been broken in as a ridden horse and thrives in this discipline.
Yanky is an easy to have around boy who will stand to be loved over all day long. He is good to catch, wash, brush, trim, shoe, rug , float and more. He’s been ridden out alone or in groups of horses. A nice walk, trot and canter including a soft mouth making him super easy to pull up. He will travel in a frame when asked and has a good back up.
This boy is the horse many would ask to have in their paddock as he has no vices and really is so loveable.
Mostly yanky has done trail riding however he has begun his flatwork exercises and light pole work. Mostly at walk and trot but had some canters aswell.
We have ridden through creeks, over tarps, thrown toys and cones on and off him, ridden him ba****ck in a halter, floated to new locations for riding, slid off his bum , climbed through his legs and more. He’s familiar with dogs, cats, small children, traffic. Easy to handle whilst eating and fine to have weeks off then hop on and go. He’s had beginners through to experienced riders on him with no issues. Just if going to a beginner home he may benefit from an intermediate - experienced rider to help continue his flatwork schooling to perfection however he is completely fine for beginners to ride in the arena just more if you want him more established in this area.

Zorro
11yr old QH paint gelding 15.1hh
Not registered but parents are known
Easy to catch, wash, rug, float, with or without other horses, around dogs / traffic / machinery, float out to new locations, riding down the roads and more.
A few months ago zorro came to us for breaking in and sale due to his owner downsizing. Previous to his breaking in he was just a paddock horse but he was well handled, regularly trimmed and well taken care of.
Since being broken in he has done a range of riding including trail rides from home or travelled out, ridden alone or in company, arena and flatwork or just general play around the property.
The 4 kids on our property aged 9 and under often go into his paddock to give treats and cuddles and he is a very gentle, sweet man with them.
Zorro is Happy to lead the way or be at the back of a group. Gets along well with other horses in the paddock and is easy to have around. 3 smooth paces and a beautiful horse to ride ba****ck too. Stands to be tied all day, ride over tarps, through obstacles , stand on his back and more.
He is a quiet horse to ride however due to his recent breaking he would benefit from an intermediate or above rider to get the best from him. Without a doubt down the track he will make the ULTIMATE beginners horse. But he is still green for the moment.
He is up to date with worming and hoof care- currently just barefoot but he does struggle on our rocky terrain so we are putting scoot boots on him when trail riding. He is not Hendra vaccinated.
