We’re looking for a loving and experienced long-term loan home for our gorgeous Sampson — he is an 8-year-old gelding close to our hearts bred by our late mum. This is a hard decision for us but we we want to give him the best possible future with someone who will bring out the best in him. Sampson is a Hanoverian x Thoroughbred cross with Holstein. He was professionally backed at four years old and has done a bit of everything since, but he’s been out of consistent work for around two years now. While he has a gorgeous and loving temperament — he is a big character and needs someone confident, calm, and experienced both on the ground and in the saddle. He is not suitable for a novice. He would be a fantastic project for someone looking to bring a horse back into work with experience and understanding. Although he may need to brush over the basics to begin with, he has had a solid foundation, and in the right hands, he will thrive. Because of the circumstances we are not really looking to sell. This would be a full loan with no intention of having him back — but only to the right person, we would love to stay in touch and see how he’s getting on. We know Sampson has the potential to be an incredible partner for the right person, and we’re looking for someone who will love him as much as we do. Please give me a call for more information, serious enquiries only please.
