Cob Gelding
Toby, 14.3hh heavy tri coloured gypsy cob gelding, stolen from Telford, Shropshire on 1st June 2006.

Aged 16+, mainly white with bay markings which turn roan in summer. The only black areas are a patch on his left knee, a small streak in his forelock by left ear and a small tuft on his withers. White mane, tail, feather and forelock. Very pretty face. Was lame with arthritis in his right shoulder when taken. Very gentle natured, didn't like tractors. He is very heavily built, he wasn't cut until age 12, so could be mistaken for a stallion at first glance. Toby is microchipped.

If anyone sees him or knows of his whereabouts then please, please contact me or the police. I just want him to come home. He is desperately missed and I need to know he is safe.

Please phone 01952 594846 or contact Malinsgate Police Station on 08457 444888, crime ref is 22GA/41284Y/06, incident number 214.N.020606.
Carriages and Trailer
Stolen on the night of Wednesday 14th November 2007 from Andover:

Dartmoor Spirit – Burgundy with cream coach lines and Brass furniture. To fit 13.2hh pony as single, or smaller pony pair. The most distinguishing feature on the vehicle is that it is the only Dartmoor to have been fitted with grease nipples on the shackle pins (ends of the springs).

Sierakowski Sport Break – presentation vehicle, to fit 13.2hh pony pair. Black with silver coach lines, and silver furniture. Serial number 178-05. This sport break has a dashboard which I believe, most don’t.

Small trailer – Brenderup Bravo 750kg trailer serial number 780331 complete with winch on the front and boards screwed to the floor at the edge.

The thieves were only after carriages as they moved a ride-on mower out of the way to get to one. They knew exactly what they were after as they took all the accessories for the Dartmoor and left behind other bits belonging to different vehicles that were in a different location. We think they only took the trailer as a means to taking one of the carriages.

If you hear anything on any of the above please contact Hampshire Police on 02380 674111. Crime number 44070529398.
