We can assess any horse
anywhere in Ireland

You will receive a written report as well as un-edited video.

We will ride/try the horse (we can also assess unbroken horses) and evaluate temperament, conformation, performance and suitability based on your requirements.

We can normally get to most appointments within 48hrs (depending on vendor availability and location).

Please provide an eircode so we may locate where the horse is and we will be able to quote you.

There is no extra charge for evaluating other horses at the same location presented by the same vendor - we are happy to advise which one may be “best” if there is more than one option.

Please check the vendor is happy to accommodate a third party coming to try the animal and provide us with the following information:

  • Vendor phone number and location (we will contact them to make an appointment)
  • Some information on the horse - ideally the ad you responded to
  • Your skill level and what you will be mainly using your new partner for

For welfare reasons we do not ride ponies under 148cm.

Our rates are as follows:

Evaluations under 100km - €200

100-150km - €250

150-200km - €300

Anything over 200km - €350

We do not charge any commission on a horse you have found that we are sent to assess.

Reviews

Daisy and Richard both went to view the ponies and I got honest feed back and was told what would suit my daughter out of the 3 of them. She also rode the freshly backed pony for me. It was the best decision I made to use the Trayfords. Two days after they viewed for me I bid and won the pony. Another 3 days later and he is settle in the UK. The turn around from Daisy first speaking to the seller to the pony being in his forever home with us was 1 week. Highly recommend The Trayfords and would definitely use them again if I want to buy from Ireland. Rebecca Naumenko
