— ABOUT US —
Two People, One Standard
Dark Magic Sporthorses is a small partnership built on years in the saddle and an unwillingness to compromise on quality.
“We are not a stable. We are not a dealership. We are two people who love this sport — and who know that finding the right horse is as much about patience as it is about pedigree.”

The People Behind Dark Magic
— CO-FOUNDER · SOURCING
Vanessa
Vanessa leads sourcing — building the network of breeders, producers and trainers we work with across Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, Denmark and beyond. She travels often, sees every horse in person, and applies a sharp eye for movement, conformation and the small details that separate a good horse from a great one.
— CO-FOUNDER · SELECTION & RIDING
Ann
Ann handles the riding assessment, temperament evaluation, and the trainability check that decides whether a horse joins our list. With a classical seat and a quiet hand, she tests every horse on the ground and under saddle — and trusts her instinct when something isn’t quite right.
— WHAT WE DO —
A Quieter Way to Buy a Horse
Dark Magic Sporthorses works on commission for the buyer. We are not affiliated with any one breeder, trainer or stable — our loyalty is to the rider commissioning the search.
We accept a limited number of buyer briefs each year so that every client gets our full attention. Whether you are looking for a young prospect, a confirmed 1.30m amateur ride, or a top-level Grand Prix jumper — please get in touch.
