Really beautiful little pony; Has previously been ridden by two confident young riders, off lead rein, jumping and mounted games - was purchased as a lead rein for my 2yo - the life doesn’t suit her and is under stimulated, therefore she’s been left out of work and is currently being wasted. She would make a super project pony for somebody small and confident to bring on.
Pony has a super jump and have lots of videos of her lunging over XC fences and is super bold and careful. She is great in traffic and hacks happily down the A roads with all sorts passing her.
She is great to handle on the ground, easy to catch, load etc and has been used for toddler sessions at our riding school.
She will need to be brought back into work. In all honesty she’s not suitable off lead rein currently as hasn’t been in enough work / ridden off lead rein since I brought her so would need some work . On lead rein - she’s brilliant.
Passed a vetting (September 2023) plenty of videos available of her in work off lead rein etc . She currently gets sat on by a 2yo on lead rein a couple of days per week.
No medical history and is never sick or sorry.
Totally honest ad.
Based in Gloucester
