Section A
6year old
Mare
Twiggy has a fantastic temperament that would be very hard to find. She is handled regularly by small children on the ground including our 3 year old since she was 2YO.
On the ground
Twiggy is faultless on the ground. She can be trusted to stand all day to be fussed, bathed led around by small children & is faultless for the farrier & to clip, load & travel. Will let our 3yo pick her feet out, sit on her back and brush her for hours and is always aware of where she is around her. She really is one in a million.
Schooling
She schools on the flat well. She has established walk, trot and canter and works well on a contact in a lovely outline. She has the most fantastic flashy trot flicking her toes for the judges! Children can just have a play around with her in the school and she is always happy to please. Her schooling over fences is relatively early days although she has been very willing & uncomplicated when popped over small fences by children and she has been to a couple of arena hires and rode a full course lovely and enjoyed it so she should progress well in this area.
Her ridden work away from home is more limited but she has always behaved well at arena hires. She has attended pony club camp days/weeks and always behaved impeccably on lead rein and she will stand between lessons without issues. She is middle of the road with her pace, she is not a kick along and she is not wizzy or fizzy she just sits at a lovely pace but will absolutely pick it up for her rider if that’s what they ask. She enjoys her tik tok fun canters with the older kids and will tootle along with the younger ones.
Showing
This is where Twiggy really excels. With our daughter still being very young we have done lots of in hand with her to get her out and about and give her good experience. She has been to lots of showing classes and will do numerous classes in a day and is always in the ribbons and sashes, usually taking ?? or ??, she has also won champion, supreme champion and reserve champion multiple times. She is a real judges favourite and her feedback is always that she will go far in the right hands! Her experience ridden in the ring is more limited, she is fine on lead rein but ridden independently with a novice jockey she can become unsettled hence I would not advertise her as a first ridden for this sole reason she needs to gain her confidence in this with a more experienced rider.
Hacking
Absolutely unphased with hacking & will willingly climb hills, pop ditches, go through water, front, back, hack alone or in company & is no problem with traffic or any machinery. She has cantered/galloped in open fields with an older rider and was excellent and came back when asked.
Never been laminitic
Up to date with vet, physio and farrier.
A 10* home is essential as she is an absolute star of a pony. We will request references. This little pony deserves a fantastic home to be loved & continue to progress her education. She would do very well in a showing home as she really does have the potential to go to the top or equally she can turn her hoof to anything so with the right little jockey she would make a beautiful all rounder.

Been in the same home since a yearling
He’s been baby sitting the young stock but now we feel he’s completely wasted and it’s time for him to become a little persons best friend.
Excellent in the stale, to have feet trimmed, bathed etc.
He has had tack on and started long reining and lunging.
Used to children, fam machinery and has a wonderful nature.
Sure to make a lovely LR or FR.
