The brand new hunting season is almost upon us, so get prepared and take a look at this selection of hunters for sale on the Horse & Hound website this week.
1. ‘Fantastic’
Height: 17.1hh
Gender: gelding
Age: 10
Selling points: “Jeremy is an absolutely honest and genuine made hunter. He has never stopped and carries his rider over fences confidently and smoothly. He is 100% in traffic and to box, clip and shoe. Jeremy goes in front or behind and hacks out happily alone or in company. He is an impressive hunter and a loving character; a real confidence giver or would make an ideal master’s horse. Jeremy has been hunted throughout the past two seasons with the North Costwold Hunt, ridden by a lightweight lady, and has also safely conveyed his 81-year-old sight- impaired owner over large hedges out hunting and on hacks through heavy traffic. He can also comfortably carry a heavyweight rider. Genuine reason for this sad sale. Fit and ready for the new season.”

2. ‘Awesome’
Height: 14.2hh
Gender: mare
Age: nine
Selling points: “This is an amazing hunting pony that jumps hedges, gates and ditches. She stands and crosses the biggest Blackmore Vale country in a snaffle. She is a good mover and a great jumper. She qualified for the NSEA championships at Hickstead in showjumping and arena eventing and has won a number of local showjumping competitions. She has shown and done working hunter and senior Pony Club camp. She has a leg in each corner and is as tough as old boots. She would be a great adult/child share. She is easy to load in a trailer or lorry and is safe to hack.”

Height: 16hh
Gender: gelding
Age: eight
Selling points: “‘Chuck’ is a Thoroughbred gelding that has hunted with the Berks & Bucks Draghounds as a five-year-old and been hunting with the Cotswold Hunt at his loan home over the past year. He has competed at BE90/100 level, but lacked in the cross-country phase as his BE records show. He is 100% to do in every way and extremely kind natured. He has showjumped clear up to 1.05m and would suit a competent rider looking to do riding club activities and/or hunting.”
