Top Track JA IRISH MARE

  • The Straightest Pony on The Circuit- Has never stopped!

Top Track 128 17 year old JA Irish Mare
We bought Sky last October for my daughter’s last year on 128s in the hope she would be able to gain some experience jumping the bigger tracks. Together they’ve achieved more than we could of hoped for qualifying for

Hickstead 128 winter final 2025
Royal Highland Show 128 championship 2025
Graham Heath Final 2025
128 Handicap Final

She is without a doubt one of the straightest Ponys on the circuit. She has never stopped. She will always bring your child through the start and finish. I wish we had another year on 128s as the best is yet to come with this mare. She will take you to a fence but has breaks. She has never bucked, reared or bolted. Gold league pony through and through, the bigger the fence the better and she loves her job.

No vices, up to date with everything, fit and ready to go. She is a lovely mare to have on the yard, hacks on her own, clips and loads like a dream.

Substantial price for this calibre of pony required. SERIOUS ENQUIRIES ONLY PLEASE. NO DAY DREAMERS OR TYRE KICKERS


Beautiful active allrounder


Ref #: 391828

  • Wonderful temperament, great with children and adults alike.
  • Genuine schoolmaster, ideal for young teenager that she can help step-up.
  • Great to hack, loves to jump and enjoys flatwork.

Stepol Northern Dancer “DANCER”, beautiful bay 14.2hh allrounder, Welsh section D mare who loves to be active. 16 years’ old and a genuine schoolmaster, she is great with children of all ages and adults alike but would thrive with a young teenager that she can help step up. She is easy to groom and tack-up with an excellent temperament, great to hack either alone or in company, is good around cars, and loves to jump up to 1m comfortably and has occasionally jumped up to 1m20 single fences. She enjoys flatwork but does not have much experience in dressage, however, would make for a beautiful dressage pony.

She is good to travel, but can sometimes be reluctant to load if she doesn’t travel regularly or isn’t familiar with box/trailer. She has been to multiple farm rides, non affiliated show jumping competitions, cross country events, arena hires and gallops and has thrived in all areas. She is not strong and has exceptionally good breaks so is only ridden in a snaffle with no flash required. She was also previously part of a Pony Club at a riding school.

For the last couple of years, Dancer has generally only been ridden for non-competitive pleasure but can easily be brought back up to a competing level.

She was bought for 11-year-old daughter and has done well with her for the 5 years we have owned her, only deciding to sell due to a change in circumstances and time commitments. Dancer is a low maintenance pony, who typically lives out from March through to the end of October with no issues. She prefers life living out and only gets brought in at night during the winter months due to requirements of the livery she is on now but would be happy to live out all year round.

She has never bucked, reared, or kicked people during our ownership, however, does experience mild crib biting after she is given treats or is in the stable for prolonged periods, no health issues have been identified by her vet.

An absolutely wonderful pony ideal for first time or experienced owners alike.

• Vaccinations and worming up to date
• Microchipped
• Good to clip (has been in winter for past 3 years)
• Good to shoe (every 6 weeks and only has front 2 on currently)
• Tack and rugs available on request. PoA

William is a loyal, brave and genuine pony, he looks after his rider, knows his job and does it exceptionally well. Type of pony who leaves everyone smiling inside and outside of the ring.

He has exceptional flatwork with auto changes. He is an extremely talented pony and will excel in anything he does.
He is very well known on the circuit and on social media attracting attention for his incredible bravery, honesty but above all talent!

He has a big stride and is very intelligent allowing him to fix the stickest of situations.

He is extremely brave and will always find a way to clear a jump being naturally quick he is always in the placings.

A unique opportunity to purchase an out and out schoolmaster still in JC points.

William would be the perfect pony for a novice to teach them the ropes and bring them up the levels winning along the way.

He is practically unbeaten at 1.10, loves a jump off, bold and wants to win as much if not more than his rider.

Not your typical hot headed show jumper, he is calm and a pleasure to deal with, always perfect to catch, clip, shoe, physio etc. We clip him untied and he just falls asleep. Hacks out with the youngest of children alone or in company. Not stressy or silly.

Very low mileage as only started jumping when he was 10.

  • MITZYS DELIGHT
  • Full up 148, JC, Mare, 13yrs
  • 349 points

Prosecco is an exceptional stamp of a pony bred for the top of the sport, she is a blood, forward competition pony standing at full up 148 with only 349 points.

Prosecco would be an incredible prospect for the Newcomer Second rounds, she has a big stride, competitive attitude and extremely careful jump.

She has consistently qualified for Bluechip and has also previously qualified Newcomer SRS, jumped to 1.20 and qualified Nationals jumping triple clear in the Discovery SRS, she also was one of only 6 clears in the Sapphire qualifier at Onley.

Prosecco is an absolute dream to do in all ways, she has no vices at all! Loads herself, perfect for farrier, physio, clip etc.

Stands all day to be groomed and fussed, the best pony to have at a show as she is so calm and sensible. She will stand where you leave her and not move until you tell her.

We have had so many compliments for her impeccable behaviour.

While she is a forward competition pony she is suitable for a more novice rider having had incredible results with a novice girl and taught a complete beginner the ropes however she can be strong jumping.

Would turn her hoof to anything having done XC, PC, SJ, fun rides, beach rides etc.

Not mareish at all, has NEVER bucked, reared, napped, kicked, bitten etc. Very sweet and cuddly, completely safe for the youngest of children and is regularly led out by my 7 year old brother.

She has been the pony of a lifetime for us and has taught myself and my sister the ropes of showjumping. She has made our childhood and is now ready to make another little persons dreams come true.

Passed a 5 stage vet in March 2023 with only one remark that doesn’t affect her. Open to any vet inspection.

Only for sale due to rider being out of ponies, this adored pony will ONLY go to a 10* home where we can keep in contact. Calls or messages welcome on 07535547702.

With a heavy heart we are looking for a new 5* home for this awesome pony.

Mitchelcombe Banoffee Pie - Bonnie is a 13.2 Welsh Cob x Dartmoor

We’ve owned Bonnie for almost 2yrs and would absolutely not be looking for anything else if my daughter hadn’t grown out of her.

She schools well, has been to arena hires, XC and SJ and can turn her hoof to dressage, though it’s something my daughter is only just taking an interest in. She has done all PC activities and did Pony camp this summer and really showed what she’s capable of.

Bonnie has been out on hound exercises. She loves a job and loves to jump. She is well mannered on the ground and can live in or out but I would say she prefers out or a mix of the two. She can pull a face when you do her girth but she is just letting you know it’s not her favourite thing.

She hacks alone or in company, great in heavy traffic ,farm machinery etc
She’s great for the farrier, dentist, physio and happy to be clipped, can occasionally be reluctant to load but we have used a lunge line around her bum and she then loads straight away (we also give her a treat once she is on which helps).

Bonnie is up to date with everything. She’s had a new saddle while we’ve had her with regular checks and was recently fitted with a new bit and bridle. She is snaffle mouthed, can be strong at times but never dangerous. She is the perfect pony for someone that is a brave, confident rider who will push her to do what she loves, anyone who has this pony will be very lucky to have her.

This is a super sad sale so no time wasters, extra videos can be sent on request .

Price to include full tack and wardrobe

Dusty is a lovely, gentle pony that really loves children and can give them confidence in all pony activities.

She is great on the flat and over jumps and has no vices. Dusty has done lots of unaffiliated jumping and dressage, winning at 60cm and 70cm and consistently scoring 65%-70% at dressage. She loves her cross country. At home her flat work has progressed to extended trot, flying changes, and walk to canter. Has been on fun rides, jumping everything and never had a day lame.
She is an absolute pleasure to have on the yard, and the perfect second pony. Travels well, great for the farrier.

Would make a great pony for all pony club activities

 Princess Lexie – A Once-in-a-Lifetime, Coloured 12-Year-Old Mare, 14.2hh
A true schoolmistress • Confidence giver • Mother’s dream

Princess Lexie is exactly what her name suggests — an absolute princess and a rare gem of a horse. At 12 years old, this beautifully marked coloured mare has proven herself time and time again to be a one-in-a-million partner for riders of all ages and abilities.

? Temperament & Handling

Lexie is an angel in every way. She has the kindest, sweetest nature and is a complete pleasure to have on the yard. Her manners are impeccable — quiet and easy to shoe, box, catch, clip, ride, and handle in all situations, including busy traffic and new environments. She has a wonderfully willing temperament and shines brightest when she is building confidence in her rider.

Ridden regularly by novice students, Lexie takes everything in her stride. She is calm, forgiving, and always looks after her rider, even in tricky moments. The epitome of safety and steadiness, she truly is a confidence giver and an ideal mother–daughter share.

Riding & Performance

Princess Lexie is a true schoolmistress with experience across multiple disciplines:

• Cross Country:

Her absolute favourite job! Lexie loves XC — always taking every jump in her stride, always honest, and always eager. She has a natural enthusiasm for fences, takes everything on with pricked ears, and always makes sure to carry her rider safely to the other side.

• Show Jumping:

Schooled over coloured poles and happily jumping up to 80cm here. She would be the perfect pony to take a child from cross poles to more technical courses with confidence and fun.

• Flatwork:

Beautifully schooled on the flat, with three balanced, expressive paces and a super straight way of going. She has the presence and movement to shine in show classes.

• Hacking & Pleasure Riding:

A dream hack — relaxed, reliable, and unfazed by traffic. Happy to go out alone or in company.

• Previous Experience:

Has hunted, taken part in hunter trials, and enjoyed pony club activities. She is versatile and willing, making her suitable for almost any loving home.

? Conformation & Type

Lexie is extremely well put together — a proper model of a mare with good bone, substance, and an eye-catching coat pattern. She is beautifully marked and stands out wherever she goes.

Ideal Home

She would be an outstanding fit for:

A novice rider
A mother–daughter share
A riding school looking for a safe, quality mare
A pony club home
A fun, happy-hacking home
A family searching for a trustworthy, kind partner

Lexie has no stable vices, is open to any vetting, and comes with complete peace of mind.

DO YOU HAVE A HORSE OR PONY SUITABLE FOR THE RDA?

WANTED ON LONG TERM LOAN / PURCHASE

Ref #: 249896
  • If you think your equine has what it takes, please contact one of the groups below
  • If you think your equine has what it takes, please contact one of the groups below

One of the main issues that RDA groups face is finding an Equine to suit the needs of the participants in their group.

We are regularly contacted with offers of Equines that are ‘the ideal RDA horse or pony’ when actually what is ideal for one group may not be for the next. We are trying to move away from the stereotypical view that RDA Equines are elderly and somewhat static, our horses and ponies need to be fit, healthy and athletic to cope with the lifestyle in an RDA group.

They can range from smaller, forward going ponies to weight carrying cobs and can take part in a range of disciplines from Riding to Carriage Driving, Vaulting to Show Jumping and Endurance.

If you contact an RDA Group about your Equine please be prepared to fill in an Equine Initial Interest Form which will ask you many questions about your horses’ temperament, health history, experience and lifestyle. Many groups will prefer to have an equine on trial to make sure they are suitable for the job.

For long term loans and purchases they will also be required to have a Pre-Purchase Examination.

If you think your equine has what it takes, please contact one of the groups below.

Thistledown Arctic Monkey is a truly exceptional children’s pony. A 14-year-old Welsh Section B gelding, Monkey has made so many dreams come true, but it is now sadly time for him to go and teach his next young rider the ropes.

He is straightforward, kind, beautifully mannered and will give even the smallest, most nervous jockey total confidence — even in the busiest of rings.

Many people will remember Monkey at HOYS 2023, when my daughter decided to stand on him and salute because she didn’t want the judge getting bored seeing the same show as everyone else! Monkey stood like a rock, as he always does — the perfect example of the saintly temperament he is known for.

He has qualified for HOYS and RI eight times, competing in the Lead Rein, First Ridden and 122 SHP classes. Monkey has too many wins to mention them all, but his record includes:
• 8 × HOYS & RI Qualifications
• Winner at Windsor
• Qualified HOYS/RI as a First Ridden on his first attempts (only his 1st and 4th show with us)
• 2 × Royal Welsh 122 SHP Winner
• WPCS Performance Show Mini WHP Champion
• Won several Dressage classes
• Attended Pony Camp
• Enjoys Showjumping
• HOYS Consistency Points Winner
• Placed in all classes at BSPS / NPS Champs
• Jumps quietly and safely around Cradle Stakes tracks

Monkey is the pony every family wishes they had. He hacks for hours alone or in company, attends Pony Club and loves every minute. He’s always the first to greet you at the gate, and he is easy whether picked up, put down, ridden daily or left a few weeks — he simply fits into family life and makes everything easy and fun.

He can be fully cared for by children without a second thought. He will stand for hours to be groomed, bathed, tacked up, and is even clipped by my 13-year-old daughter. He’s frequently involved in TikToks, makeovers, brushing sessions and being turned into a unicorn! Even the non-horsey grandparents can lead him in and out, hold him at shows and take him for a little walk while the girls ride.

He is honestly the happiest, friendliest, most people-loving pony we’ve ever known — you cannot help but fall in love instantly.

Monkey has no vices — he does not nap, rear, buck, etc. However, he would eat himself to death if given half a chance! He has had laminitis in the past so he needs a family who can help him make good life choices. This is totally manageable with a simple routine (basically he’s not allowed on the big field (10acres) when the grass is at its sweetest but we are very happy to discuss this.

Monkey is truly a family favourite and this is a heartbreaking sale. He is ready to go and make another child’s dreams come true, just as he has done for ours.

5?, knowledgeable home essential.

Available after London.
