Wanted genuine, safe horse for 10*, knowledgeable, forever home


Ref #: 403610
  • 10* forever home on a beautiful private gated estate in Central Scotland
  • Mare or gelding aged between 5 and 12 years, 15.2hh plus
  • 10* forever home on a beautiful private gated estate in Central Scotland
  • Mare or gelding aged between 5 and 12 years, 15.2hh plus

I am looking for a genuine horse to offer a 10* forever home on a beautiful private gated estate in Central Scotland, with excellent stabling, grazing, and endless hacking. This horse will join my much-loved horse of 20 years, along with my hunter who has sadly been prematurely medically retired, so a knowledgeable, caring, and experienced home is guaranteed.

References can happily be provided.

I am ideally looking for a mare or gelding aged between 5 and 12 years, 15.2hh plus, and no greys, cobs, or arabs please. I have extensive hacking, so must be good in traffic, non-spooky and no nappers, buckers, rearers please. I like really forward going horses, so something that is forward thinking and well-schooled would be ideal

Temperament is very important, so the horse must be kind and easy to handle on the ground and good to clip, shoe, catch, and load. I am looking for a horse with a nice attitude and willing nature, that is straightforward to work with and enjoys its job. I do not jump, so it does not matter whether the horse jumps or not.

I have previously competed in RIHS and HOYS qualifiers and so would like something smart and mannerly that will go in a nice outline. I do not mind a horse that has been retired from the show ring and looking for a quieter life or a change of direction. Happy for superficial blemishes but no health conditions/previous injuries please.

Any potential horse will need to pass a vetting and must have no stable vices - no cribbers/windsuckers please!

Based in central Scotland so sensible distances please but willing to travel for the right horse.

Please email in the first instance with full details and photos would be a plus.

As I do not sell on, no silly prices please.

  • Actively looking for the best Pony Club ponies
  • Some fabulous knowledgeable homes waiting
  • No fees for sellers
I have motivated clients looking for genuine, kind, quality and proven ponies to take part in all Pony Club activities.

The ponies I would love to hear about are those not needing to be advertised to secure a new home. There is no harm in finding out whether I know of a better home and match. Perhaps you worry about your child finding it upsetting seeing their old pony regularly at rallies etc - then selling out of area could be a better solution.

These are motivated buyers receiving guidance as to what will likely suit their child - not the timewasters regularly reported. In most cases homes are also knowledgeable: simply lacking in time to conduct a search themselves. Most will also wait for the right pony so if you are not ready to sell yet - that is not an issue.

There are some decent budgets available relative to age and medical conditions etc.

All leads will be handled with discretion. Please feel free to give me a call, drop me a WhatsApp or check out my Instagram page @theponysearchagent

Great breeding- by Avanti amorous Archie out of a silvermines cruising/cruising dam

Caroline is one of my homebreds, she is a super stamp with plenty of limb and lovely movement.

A really sweet mare to handle, super to catch and was a star when I clipped her.

Shes been broken around 6 weeks, has been in the arena a handful of times and has been a really sweetie every time.

She’s done plenty of hacking around the lanes and has been on the roads and was great with the traffic she’s seen.

A dream childs pony in the making

George is a homebred pony, that has always been well handled & shown in hand as a youngster.

His dam is Bradmore Tinkerbell, grand dam is Deanhills Fairystory, and his sire is the Super Premium Dartmoor stallion Cayberry Final Salute. Registered with the NPS and eligible to be registered part bred Dartmoor. He is a 4 year old gelding, approx 12.2hands.

Lovely put together pony.

George has been broken and is going sweetly & is happy being handled by a tiny child. He is snaffle mouthed and has a lovely nature. He has been shown under saddle in a lead rein class where he behaved impeccably with a tiny jockey. He really isn’t phased by an atmosphere.

Will make a lovely show/dressage pony.

Due to his age & only just having being broken he is not suitable for a novice, but has proven to be a true child’s pony. Is only for sale as we have no jockey.

Lots of pictures & videos available to serious enquiries.

Superstar Welsh C gelding

  • Robbie is a superb model of a Welsh C
  • Previously been to HOYS and RIHS

On behalf of a client due to personal home circumstances..

Superstar 13hh 14yr old welsh C gelding. Previously been to HOYS and RIHS as an open flat C and m@m WHP.

Robbie is a superb model of a welsh C with plenty of bone and substances as well as a beautiful front and tail set. He is beautifully schooled in all three paces..

He could be a fantastic pony to make a BYRDS or dressage prospect for someone that’s ambitious and wants to take this route, alternatively he would be a superb low level allrounder/PC pony. He would suit a capable competitive child, teen or small adult- he’s a typical Welsh so not suitable for a nervous novice rider as he’s a true competition pony and not a riding school donkey.

Robbie previously went to HOYS as a flat pony, and in my opinion he still looks good enough to carry on at the high level on the flat. He has also been to HOYS and RI as a 133 m@m worker however he will not jump these tracks any more, so he is more suited to a home that wants to pop 60/70. If you are after a pony to consistently jump 80cm+ courses he’s not for you. 

He loves to show jump, yesterday we took him to show jump arena hire and he flew everything with fillers at around 70cm. Today he went to dressage and done a beautiful test.

Robbie’s perfect home would be someone who would like to have fun doing a little bit of everything. He is ridden at home here by a competent 13yr old child daily including bareback.

Please please only serious enquiries as this is heartbreaking for his owner. His price is open to negotiation as his home is uttermost priority; however please don’t be offensive with offers as you wouldn’t find another pony with his CV and type anywhere else for the price he’s advertised at.

  • Placed at the Royal Welsh in hand and under saddle in 2025
  • He loves to jump

Meet our 10 year old 12.2hh pony, who has apparently decided he is now far too talented for the show ring. Despite an extensive and very successful in-hand showing career (yes, he has the rosettes to prove it), he would now much rather have a varied life then just showing.

He is amazing to hack, sensible, fun, and ready to teach a child the ropes while having plenty of character to keep life interesting. Would excel in Pony Club activities, rallies, games, and general family fun.

He loves to jump but current jockey is not a jumper so he’s not been pushed in that direction.

Placed at the Royal Welsh in hand and under saddle in 2025. Been there, done that, won the ribbons.

A brilliant all-rounder for someone wanting a talented pony with experience, charm, and all the looks

Killkern Lucile
14.3hh | 14yo | Connie X ISH

Lucy is a lovely, genuine been-there-and-done-it allrounder with an impressive show record and the kind of temperament that makes her a pleasure to have around.

A proven Small Hunter Pony, Lucy has enjoyed success including:
• 2nd Royal Welsh 2023
• 4th Royal Welsh 2025
• RIHS Qualified 2024

Alongside her showing career, Lucy has had a varied life and has taken part in Pony Club activities, unaffiliated showjumping, cross country, working hunter and dressage, making her a fantastic and versatile pony.

She hacks happily alone and in company and is a straightforward, sensible ride. Lucy is snaffle mouthed and is a kind, easy pony to manage day to day — good to bath, clip, load etc.

Lucy passed a 5 stage vetting last week and is ready to excel in her next home.

Lucy is quiet and genuine in all ways however she can show the occasional buck, although this has not happened with me onboard.
