British-Produced Showjumpers for South America
Horses Smith produces elite showjumping sport horses in Kent, England, and sells across South America. Every horse here was bred by us or brought on by us on one yard, with a published pedigree, honest video and a price on the site.
There is one thing worth saying before you read any further, because most European sellers will not say it: for a horse bought to compete, importing is often the wrong call. Duty and local taxes can be high enough to change the decision, and a great many South American owners buy in Europe, stable the horse in Belgium or the Netherlands and campaign it there. We will tell you honestly which suits the horse and the plan, even when it is the answer that sells more slowly.
