Horses for sale

Ever since sisters Sally and Clissy started competing Internationally the family has produced and sold on horses from Whorridge.

Amongst others Clissy produced Lifeline who won the HOYS Working Hunter Championships at Wembley with new owner Gail Hancock in 1987, Chatsby was sold to Lucinda and David Green and went on to take 10th place ridden by David in The Hague World Champs 1994.

The Individual Silver medal that year was won by Dorothy Trapp riding Molokai, Dorothy's first serious event horse had been Delphy Diver, produced by and bought from Clissy a few years prevously!

The stallion Lifeline (by Burggraaf) stood at Whorridge and was sold to the USA where he was a top young rider horse.

When Edward and Clissy were starting a family, World Champion Blyth Tate took on Delphy Dazzle to immediate success at Burghley **** and Luhmuhlen where they were 2nd.

All three Bleekman sisters have brought on some lovely ponies and horses who are competing successfully with new owner/riders.

Katie is particually proud of starting off Mazing who was bought by the Ecroyd family for son Sam as his first 14.2 pony – they competed together at the Badminton Grass Roots Championships in 2010, just before Sam (Individual Silver Pony Three Day Event Medallist in 2011) went on to his first medal – Team Gold – in that summer's Europeans.

Lisnalea Grace
Brilliant FEI pony

Palomino, Mare, 9 years, 14.1 hands
Irish bred mare

20 points BE, BSJA £150 actual £99 notional.
A Pony for future medals! Recently placed again at Novice level (Milton Keynes) against a top class Senior International entry.

"Blondie" has been produced here since she was 5 and her rider only 11 years old.

They started eventing in 2008 and in their second horse trial at Belmont Park they won! Making Janou at 12 the youngest winner of a BE event. They have successfully made their way up the ranks to the top level possible, international CCIP** – ending both 2008 and 2009 seasons with good placings in the Aldon Pre Novice 3 Day – 11th and then 3rd. In 2010 after good Novice and Pony Trial form they finished with 8th place at Weston CCIP**.

This spring after a good second at Moreton Morrell Novice (beating Paul Tapner in 3rd and only beaten by Oliver Townend) they also finished in 11th place at Brand Hall CCIP** – The National Pony Champs. Blondie has been successful BSJA on many occasions in the winter months – and is hard to beat in the Junior Foxhunter/Opens! The JAS classes have suited her as well – they had great fun and good placings in 2009/2010 - finishing 4th in the finals in 2010.

We have never competed in Working Hunter classes – but she is potentially top class; her style over a fence is always classic – and she goes in a lovely easy rhythm. She is always settled and easy in the dressage – and not a complicated pony in any way.

Sadly Janou is reaching the end of her pony days and is ready to move towards horses but Blondie is a lovely pony who is poised at the beginning of her International career.

She is a pleasure in every way to be with and ride: and we know she will be loved by new owners as much as us!

We hope to find a very special home for a very special pony. A wonderful pony to take young child right up the ranks as she has done before!

Hi Clissy,
I attach a couple of pics so you can see Zara and Tom in action – we have had just so much fun with him, they have really gelled well together and the photos are of him competing in the event pony class at Burghley. They did a lovely clear round. Good old Tom – I have to say, we are the envy of everyone and he has become the 'benchmark' for all my friends looking for a first event pony.
Best wishes,
Susanna

Dear Clarissa Bleekman,
Hi I'm Harriet Alien, I bought a horse last year from you (Sean) and I would just like to say that thank you for such a fabulous horse, he has been great from the start. On the first show I took him to we qualified for the national championships for showjumping and the style jumping and he has done very well in the dressage too, he's always in the rosettes, I have done a few One day events on him and he has been brilliant, the picture attached is from the one day event at popular park when we came 4th. So I thought I should email you to say thank you, he is the most loveable horse I have had and everyone at the yard loves him.
Yours sincerely,
Harriet Allen
