Please read in DETAIL the information below, before proceeding to our SALES page, thankyou.
We specialize in buying, training and selling Hunter/Jumper and Pleasure prospects. We also occasionally offer Event, Dressage and Fox Hunt prospects. We offer every breed from QH and Warmbloods to Ponies and Paints. Our inventory changes monthly, so please check back with us, if you don't see anything of interest.
All sale horses undergo approx 30-60 days professional training before being offered for sale. All horses do the basic W/T/C, know their leads and have been started over fences, if age permits. With continued training, they learn how to jump small courses and learn basic under saddle attributes, like flying changes, leg yielding, etc. All sale horses have good ground manners and know how to trailer load, bathe, lead, crosstie, clip, and stand for the farrier and for mounting, unless otherwise noted in their ads. We pride ourselves in offering nicely started and well trained Hunter Show Prospects at reasonable prices ($4,000-$8,000). We also occasionally have in the Made or "A" circuit prospect available also ($8500-$15K). Sorry, but we DO NOT offer Leases, Trades or Trial Periods on Any "Sale" horse, unless noted. But Stillwater Farm does offer to hold a "Sale" horse for a client during a period of 2 weeks for a Non-Refundable 10% deposit, so that you have the oppurtunity to ride the horse many times and make sure that you have picked a good fit. Deposits are not neccesary though.
Each horse offered for sale is sound and healthy. UTD on all shots and worming and most are offered w/ recent vet checks and/or xrays. Pre-purchase vet exams by buyers are welcomed. We can also make available VHS videos on all sale prospects, but require a $15 refundable deposit be mailed to us first before receiving a video. We also occasionally offer short 15 second video clips to be emailed. Our address is located on our Home page. Please check out my testomonials page to here reviews from happy owners.
Just about every rider out there has a hard time determining the level of riding experience they have, please read carefully below, my qualifications list for each level of rider, so you know which of my sale horses would best suit you.
Beginner- Has never had lessons, or is just starting lessons and can only W/T. This level rider needs a packer.
Advanced Beginner - Has been taking lessons for about 1-2 years and can get a horse/pony to W/T/C and jump crossrails, and has good balance.
Intermediate- Has been taking lessons for at least 3-4 years, maybe longer, has perfect balance and a very steady leg and knows how to keep their heel DOWN. Can easily W/T/C, knows diagonals and leads with ease and can jump a 2ft course.
Has ridden horses that aren't always packers.
Advanced- (aka Confident, Experienced rider) has over 5+ years riding experience, can easily handle young, green horses or OTT types. Is looking for a challenge or a horse that needs finishing. Most horses in this category need a very specific type of rider.
