Teddy is our much loved 11hh, 14yo Dartmoor type gelding and the ultimate little gentleman. This is a very sad sale of a pony who has given our family so much joy.

He is a genuine lead rein and first ridden pony and definitely more woah than go. He has looked after his little rider beautifully and is a wonderful confidence giver.

Teddy has been exceptional at children's meets. He stands sensibly at the meet, happily goes along amongst the crowd and is equally content to stay quietly at the back on his own. He doesn't get wound up by the excitement and has been a wonderful pony for a child to enjoy hunting on.

He has been to three Pony Club camps and taken part in lots of Pony Club rallies, mounted games, fancy dress and general family fun.

He will do cross poles, mini xc jumps with no care of what they look like but he will not do this fowardly - he is no speedy showjumper and that is not where his strengths lie. He is the lead rein and first pony, the bombproof gent all rounder for kids to learn on safely. He is the stage before the 'second pony' that then takes children whizzing round the comps with the full confidence and joy that they gained from a pony like Teddy.

On the ground he is an absolute gent. Perfect to load and with the farrier, stands patiently to be groomed and fussed over by children and loves cuddles and affection. He really is the sort of pony children can enjoy doing everything with, not just riding.

He is a hardy native of Dartmoor type (not a registered dartmoor pony) who lives on fresh air and we are not aware of any previous health problems. Comes with saddle and bridle.

Teddy is well known locally and plenty of Pony Club families, instructors and others who have seen him in many different settings across the New Forest will no doubt happily vouch for him.

Home is incredibly important. We are looking for a long term Pony Club or hunting family home where Teddy can continue doing the things he loves and be adored. He would be particularly suited to a family with several children, where he can teach one after another and hopefully stay for many years. We would not wish him to go to a single 7 or 8 year old that already can ride as he is best suited for a longer term home where a child can enjoy the lead rein pony stage but instead then needing the next pony they can then continue off lead to the stage they need the true second pony.

With his height he is bigger than an oversized shetland but smaller than a typical dartmoor. Perfect for safety, enjoyment but the child at aged 8 or 9 will likely start to outgrow him.

Teddy has given us so much joy and we owe it to him to find a home that will love and appreciate him as much as we do. The right home is far more important than a quick sale, we can keep him for as long as.

Newoak Wizard

Outstanding Lead Rein Pony | Hoys 2026 Qualified

It is with an extremely heavy heart that I offer my much-loved pony, Newoak Wizard, for sale to a very special home.

Wizard is an exceptional lead rein pony with an outstanding competition record, including numerous Championships and Supreme successes. He has always been home produced, making his achievements all the more special.

🏆 HOYS Qualified 2019, 2025 & 2026

🏆 Royal International Qualified every year

🏆 Stars 2023 Winner

🏆 Numerous Championships & Supreme successes at Breed shows

Wizard is my children’s pony who has made our dreams come true. He has safely taken both of my daughters through their lead rein careers and on into First Ridden, giving them confidence and so many unforgettable experiences.

He has the most wonderful temperament and is an absolute dream to have. He is kind, sensible and incredibly easy to do.

He has never needed a calmer or ear plugs at a show, travels brilliantly in both a box and trailer and is perfectly happy staying away from home. He takes everything in his stride and is genuinely a pleasure to own.

Wizard has given my children an incredible start and has been everything I could ever have wished for in a child's pony.

This is an incredibly difficult sale, so finding the right home is my absolute priority. I am looking for someone who will love and cherish Wizard and appreciate just how special he is.

A truly outstanding competition pony and, above all, a wonderful child's pony.

Serious enquiries from the very best of homes only, please. Only available after Hoys.
