2015 16.2h Gelding by Finest x Royal Rubin
This striking gelding combines breathtaking looks with exceptional quality. Imported in April 2024, he has spent valuable time in training with us, and while we've loved working with this talented horse, it’s now time for him to find his next partner.
He offers a soft, responsive ride with a forward-thinking mindset, always respecting the rider’s aids. His three well-balanced and cadenced gaits make him a comfortable and enjoyable mount.
With his undeniable presence, he is a strong candidate for high-performance competition, and we’re excited to see him at events like NAYC or Lamplight!
Currently schooling PSG, with piaffe and passage well underway. He was fully vetted in 2024, with a few minor remarks that do not impact his exceptional talent or performance.
Available for viewing in Swedesboro, NJ.

Big Ring Potential
This striking 2019, 175 cm Dutch Warmblood liver chestnut gelding is a true standout. Currently schooling at Second and Third Level, he demonstrates uncomplicated, confident flying changes and impressive trainability. Having started some ideas to develop pi and pa, his collection and willingness is unmatched. With a strong, workmanlike mentality and exceptional character, he is a top-quality horse suitable for riders of various levels.
His three naturally talented gaits provide a solid foundation for collection, with the ability to sit and channel energy with ease. This horse is guaranteed to make an impact in the show ring. Beyond his talent, he boasts a lovable, playful personality—he thrives on attention and enjoys being pampered.
This horse is a trainer’s dream: no lunging, no prep, just a good boy ready to work. He consistently comes out eager to learn and is quick to adapt to new challenges. He’s been ridden both indoors and outdoors and is comfortable hacking as well. With a great build, he suits riders of all types and has proven himself under both amateur and professional riders, earning rave reviews from everyone who has worked with him.
He has shown excellent composure and intelligence in new environments, making him a perfect match for both amateur and junior riders. His off-farm experiences have demonstrated his relaxed nature and willingness to take on new challenges with confidence.

Efeso BRH
Interesting opportunity for the right individual, due to owners spouses health…
Sunny, registered as Efeso BRH 2015 PRE gelding 16.1.
Gorgeous dapple gray with a mane and tail to die for. This very sweet and kind boy had alot to offer someone. He was purchased for my older 77 year old AA client who has loved him since 2022, but due to recent personal events is forced to sell. He has been ridden by a pro since importing him and within the last year has been solely ridden by a pro.
Sunny has 3 easy to sit and extremely expressive gaits and is trained through 4th level. He is soft in the contact and rides mainly off the seat. He is good in new environments and is an easy keeper.
He has an abnormal front right confirmation of his coronary band which makes his training have some stop holds as it cracks at the top of the hoof. He has had extensive work ups done and even the most knowledge vets and farrier teams are not sure what a permanent solution is. For this reason he will be offered at a great discount. We will happily share our vet/ farrier information. When in full work this doesn’t seem to hold him back from anything!
He would be ideal for a young rider or starting pro on a major budget willing to take some time to get to the top, but wants a super quality horse. With his training being on and off you need to have some tact to get him back going, but once going truly a lovely mount! This means he can be spicy and challenging so not for someone looking for an easy all the time ride. He is SUPER when back in a program, but the pattern of when he needs time is unreliable and inconsistent.

Poseidon
Looking for a small, young horse with huge presence and FEI potential?
Meet Poseidon—Desperado x Unifee x Houston—rising 15.2 hands, 5-year-old gelding with all the ingredients to make your dreams come true! Imported in the summer of 2024, Po is a charming and lovable young horse who stands out with his athleticism and quick reflexes. While his nature makes him better suited for an experienced rider, he is ready to become a truly special partner with the right guidance.
Po has established solid ground manners and is progressing with desensitization, lunging, Pessoa work, and long-lining. He had initial training in Europe and is already under saddle. However, Po is still building trust with his rider and understanding his role as a partner. This will require time, patience, and consistency from an experienced and confident rider.
If you're an experienced rider looking for a talented, promising partner to develop and bring to the next level, Po could be the one for you! He has the potential to shine, but he needs someone who can give him the time, attention, and experiences to truly thrive.
I wish I had more time for him myself, as he has the qualities I look for in my own horses, but I’m confident the right rider will help him reach his full potential.

Pip
2009 Mostly Jamal FF, Purebred Arabian Gelding. Standing 15.2 hands, Pip is the ideal size for many riders. He has smooth, easy-to-ride gaits that offer confidence to his rider. While his stride isn’t overly large, it’s balanced with excellent carriage and lift.
Pip has been with us for nearly 7 years, and we know him inside and out. He’s a dependable lower-level schoolmaster and would make a fantastic teacher for a rider looking to begin their USDF Medal journey. Solid at First and Second Level, Pip has also started training in trot half-pass and has shown some very green flying changes—although we haven’t focused on these recently, the foundation is there.
Pip is now looking for a new home, due to no fault of his own. His current owner, with a newborn, simply has limited time to devote to him. He would be best suited for a rider with a basic skill set, someone transitioning from a lesson program to their first horse, or an adult amateur returning to riding.
Pip is low-maintenance but does best with daily Equioxx, 12-18 month fetlock injections, and routine endocrine blood work. His sugar levels have been well-managed, though they’ve been borderline in the past.
We’re looking for a loving home for Pip, and he is offered at a very affordable price, $10,000 OBO

2005 14.1 hand Welsh X pony mare. She does not have her permanent pony card, but will stick! This mare loves her job both in the arena or out hacking. She is extremely quiet and is not spooky. She is a very forward thinking mare, I do not ride her with spurs or a whip. You can, but she has double the engine! She is schooling all of the Third Level work and her changes are installed with some minor finishing work to do. She has a large show record under prior owner including 2018 Region 1 GAIG Champion Second Level Championships JR/Yr . Her present owner who is 75, had no interest in showing her, but she has been off the farm many times to clinics in the time we’ve had her.
Would be a great candidate for a young rider looking to participate in the FEI Ponies or FEI Childrens. She works well with a rider who can handle her forward energy and has soft aids to match her quick responses. Her current owner rides/ hacks out alone! She can be mareish on the ground with girthing, but is VERY safe. I believe she would do best with a rider who is well schooled through their basics and looking for a mount to learn and continue on. She is barefoot and has minimal maintenance!
Quality of home is important to us!

DQ Proudly Presents: Sharp Dressed Man
2007 15.1 hand Registered National Show Horse ( Arabian/ Saddlebred) gelding. JJ, this blonde boy is solid training/ first level schooling second level trot work as well as w/c c/w transitions. He loves a bit of variety in his life so his new partner should enjoy some low level dressage showing, hacking and some light jumping every now and again. He has 3 comfortable gaits and is more of a push ride. He is generally very quiet, however is not bomb proof. He requires minimal maintenance and is barefoot.
This dream Barbie pony is not available due to any fault of his own and will be dearly missed in the barn. A good quality home is a must. He will not be sold to a flip home.
