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 TEAM

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.
