Our daughter is 11 years old and has been riding for the past six years mostly at a local equestrian centre and pony camps / hacking .

We are now looking to buy a horse or pony that will help her progress and continue to develop her riding.

She particularly enjoys jumping and hacking, so we are seeking a safe, experienced all-rounder that can build her confidence in these areas.

We live in Bath , so would have to be localish enough to travel to view.

Our ideal horse would be:

-Between 14.2hh and 15hh
-Aged 7–11 years
A genuine schoolmaster
-Sane, sensible, and confidence-giving
-Happy jumping and hacking out
-Robust and easy to manage
-Able to live out happily with other horses
-Friendly in nature and enjoys being groomed

In terms of breeding, a Connemara cross or cob cross would be preferred, although we would be open to other suitable types.

If you feel you have the right horse, we would be delighted to hear from you.

Kind regards,
Tavis

Murphy is a fabulous all rounder, would suit competitive rider or mother daughter share.

He is sadly for sale as has been outgrown by my teenage children and is too good to go out to pasture. We have owned him for 2 years but know about his previous history through our riding instructor who found him for us.

We have mainly used him as a showjumping pony, but he has evented successfully previously and is excellent across country. We are currently competing him at 90-95cm.

Murphy is 100% safe to hack alone or in company, and in traffic (we live on a busy road). He is forward going and willing but not overly strong. He is not spooky and does not shy at fences or fillers.

He has no vices and is a gentleman to handle, clip, box and shoe etc.

He lives out day and night in the summer in a mixed herd of mares and geldings and comes into the stable at night during the winter. He is low maintenance and can be brought in from the field and ridden without being fresh. He is genuine kind and honest, and a pleasure to deal with.

We will only consider a 5* home for him, no time wasters 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

Looking for a mother's hunter type horse of the genuine, safe, mannerly, experienced kind! Open to buy or Loan. MUST have previously hunted not just seen hounds please!
