Private client services
Horses Smith provides discreet private client services for riders and owners seeking a considered, confidential approach to acquiring or placing elite showjumping sport horses.
Who this service is for
Our private clients tend to know the sport well. They are not looking for volume or persuasion. They are looking for a considered point of view, and the patience to wait for the right horse.
- Owners building toward a defined pathway
- Riders progressing into a new level
- Families and syndicates investing early
- Professionals sourcing privately for end clients
Our private client approach
Selection
We start with a brief, not a shortlist. Suitability, temperament, and long-term trajectory come before anything else.
Access
Many of the horses we place are never advertised. The network is built over years and is offered only when the fit is right.
Discretion
Every conversation is held in confidence. Names, briefs, and outcomes remain between us and the client.
What to expect
01
Brief
A confidential conversation to understand the goal, the rider, and the timeline.

Search
A considered shortlist drawn from our programme and trusted European network.

Viewing
Discreet scheduling, preparation, and honest observation on the ground.
