Candy is the loveliest little mare who has spent most of her life as a much-loved lead rein pony. We bought her in the summer and she has been an absolute gem for Darce, participating in a huge variety of activities including:
• XC schooling
• SJ (including pairs jumping which she loved!)
• Beach rides
• Forestry hacks
• Pony Club camp
• Shows
• Hound exercise & hunting
• Lunging while Darce was recovering from her operation
Candy has taken everything in her stride. She is happiest out hunting or hacking—ears pricked, loving life. Under saddle she’s safe and sensible, and on the lead rein she will happily follow you all day at whatever speed you can manage!
When jumping independently she just needs a few fences to get her confidence, then she gets her head in the game and off she goes. With a confident little jockey or as a lead rein pony she will thrive.
The Good Bits:
• No health issues
• Snaffle mouth
• Easy for farrier, clip, load (trailer or lorry)
• Lives in or out, on her own or with others
• Very easy keeper – not much grass needed
• Comes with full tack
• Lots of videos & photos available
Honest Point:
She can be a little moody to catch on the odd day. She doesn’t run off—just turns her bum if she’s not in the mood. Darce always catches her easily, so we feel she may have had a bad experience in the past. Once caught, she is a total sweetheart.
Candy would be a wonderful asset to a hunting home, lead rein family, or a little rider who wants miles of safe fun with a kind, genuine pony. She has brought us so much joy and this is a very sad sale of a much-loved girl.
