**MOTHER’S DREAM**

With Tabby growing at a rate of knots, we have had to make the incredibly heartbreaking decision to advertise our absolute one in a million Section B pony, Landswood Sandman.

Woody is a 19 years old 13.1hh liver chestnut gelding who is an absolute superstar in every way. He has given my daughter back her confidence and he has looked after her every step of the way.

She has just enjoyed working with him at home and doing some arena hires but with his previous rider he has multiple wins and placings at County Level Shows, including having been placed at the Royal Highland Show and qualified for Blair International. Along with this he has also won Unaffiliated Dressage Championships up to Prelim level and Showjumping Championships up to 75cm.

He is good in open spaces.

Woody is snaffle mouthed, no vices all and only ever seen a vet for his vaccinations. He is easy to handle in every way, good to clip, shoe, travel etc. He has babysat weaned foals and is super kind in every single way.

Only the very best home for this very special boy. He will come with a full wardrobe including his rugs, dressage saddle and bridle.

Absolutely no time wasters or joy riders. References will be requested as this is a heartbreaking sale and only the best home is accepted! Although he is suitable for a novice rider, absolutely no novice owners as he is a very special boy and needs the best possible care from knowledgable owners.

  • 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

  • Buckskin

  • The perfect allrounder / family pony
  • Excellent competition pony with plenty of experience
  • The safest, easiest of rides
Stunning 2019 buckskin 14.2hh British sports pony. This little cracker will do any job, she’s a very very uncomplicated and easy ride, snaffle mouthed and experienced in the showjumping ring, she has also done some unaffiliated eventing and hunter trials.

Trixie has plenty of dressage tests under her belt, she schools beautifully with established changes, and makes very light work of it, she’s an easy ride, safe and genuine. Jumping wise she’s bold, doesn’t look at fillers or XC fences, again loves her job and will take a rider round, doesn’t mind a miss, she’s honest, she has endless scope and has jumped up to 115cm, but is equally quiet enough to pop round a 50cm with a less able jockey.

Lovely mare to hack out alone and in company, doesn’t change in open spaces and she is great in traffic, she’s unbothered by farm machinery and vehicles too. Trixie is a sweet girl on the ground, she’s kind and friendly, totally trustworthy and easy to do.

She’s very much a talented type who could go on and BE or BS and go up the levels, but she’s equally quiet enough to be a super starter pony for a young rider to get going on at shows.

Quality enough for the show ring, quiet enough for granny to hack out. Trixie is a flawless pony, and certainly won’t disappoint. Open to any vet or trainer

Safe first pony , excellent to hack ,

Duke has the most prolific CV that any pony could possibly achieve. He is a true child’s pony and best friend who, for his entire life, has been consistently placed across both the UK and Ireland, including all prestigious venues such as HOYS, Hickstead, RIHS, Dublin, Balmoral, and countless county and agricultural shows where he has won so many championships across the board from tiny tots on the lead rein, first ridden, show hunter pony classes and more. A truly adaptable pony and a master of all classes.

Duke also has a fantastic dressage record and has competed BD. He is a great teacher who is beautifully schooled, clockwork, and push-button to ride. A great confidence giver and teacher for a child wanting a quality safe pony to gain experience on.

Duke gladly turns his hoof to all pony club activities; he enjoys playing games, show jumps, cross country, hunts, hacks, and charity rides. He rides and leads politely from a horse. A wonderful pony club pony that will show a child the ropes of how to win in the show arenas too, and along the way teach a child to ride correctly, because it’s a well-renowned fact that “good ponies make good riders!”

Fit as a fiddle, don’t be put off by the age- now days this is considered to be in his prime - he moves exceptionally well, perfectly clean and correct, with many more years to offer a loving family with a deserving child.

1st to enquire will buy—one in a million, gold-dust pony.

Sadly outgrown "Draxover Major Mischief" (AKA Apollo) has been owned and produced by my daughter from a five year old. He's done PC, NSEA, BS with clears up to Newcomer's first rounds, stay away's and camps. He's never been over jumped or pushed. He was shown in hand with great success as a youngster.

- 2024 British Novice second rounds (3rd)
- 2024 Discovery second rounds (10th)
-2024 British Novice Final at Stoneleigh
-2024 Academy Champs
-2024 Spooktacular placed 1st, 2nd and 3rd
-2025 Qualified for British Novice second rounds
-2025 Blue Chip Pikeur Winter Novice final (3rd)
-2025 Academy Champs
- 2x Discovery clears for 2026

This pony hunts, showjumps, XC, hacks in traffic, alone or in company, in front or behind, loves beach rides, fancy dress, mounted games, is safe in open fields, even plays farm polo. He is the kindest, safest, funniest pony that you'll ever meet. He has always brought my child home safely with a smile on her face.

He's been in the same home with us for five years and only had one long term home before that, we know his whole history and even have his baby pictures! Clean vet history, fab to load, comes to call in the field, easy to shoe (fronts only), could be clipped by a child, professional references available.

The very best home sought for this much loved pony. He's more kick than pull and would suit a smaller child wanting a best friend to progress on, ideally a long term family home with lots of fun, friends and turnout, with people who will treat him like the prince he is. Happy to step down and babysit a smaller child around lower tracks.

We would want to stay in touch, and are still in touch with his only previous owners. Loads of videos available on request.

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 .

He is good to do in all ways load, travel, teeth, farrier, hack etc

He’s a fun forward going ride has never bucked reared bolted. We regularly are out jumping (up to 70/80) and dressage (intro &prelim) and always comes home in placing.

 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.

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.

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

MOELTRYFAN CHEEKY BOY

Incredibly versatile - from leadrein through to first ridden and beyond

A most special Christmas present …

Do not contact me unless you read the advert carefully and are only after an older schoolmaster pony .This sale is difficult enough so don’t waste my time or your time. Mid- high four figures for our beloved Boo.

Steady, confidence giving, safe, fun, all rounder - the most loving pony and child’s best friend.

Heartbreaking sale of my son’s best friend-A real life perfect unicorn. Please note Boo is looking for younger children on the lead-rein or older riders that are lightweight. Please read carefully and only contact me if you can fit the criteria as we are wanting the perfect match!
We are looking for a home that can offer him only but the best! We don’t want a competition home every weekend but an all round family home with a varied lifestyle.

• Schoolmaster
• Stunning looks and a beautiful, easy rocking horse canter. He’s steady yet responsive.

Boo enjoyed the show ring before turning his hoof to hunting, pony club and a more all-round life.

We bought Boo to give my son confidence after loosing his nerve with a pony that bucked and reared all the time, he didn’t want to ride anymore and this pony restored his confidence. So much so that he’s now moved onto his next pony which is 14hh.

We don’t want to part with Boo but he’s too lovely and talented to be ridden occasionally and a family pet.

He deserves the best home now and to give a child the joy he’s given us.
Boo has many rosettes , winning many times and trophies . He’s admired wherever we go.

He’s attended PC Camps , numerous rallies and he has competed successfully at lots of local shows and mini ODEs.He has been to many busy hunt meets and hunted with us and his previous home. We've done pc camps, rallies, pc show jumping, cross country, showing, mini one day events, hunting, fun rides, local shows, gymkhanas, village fete pony rides the list is endless!

Boo is a pony club superstar - nothing he has not done. Boo loves jumping and he jumped up to 70cm and 80cm with my son at competitions , alongside winning the Chase Me Charlie at camp jumping 1M.

His only vice is rarely ( once or twice in a year) he’s bucked in an open space
( cantering in field) through excitement. This hasn’t bothered or worried my son at all. He would never do this on the lead rein or in the arena - it’s only when the children have moved up to the 2nd type pony.

Hacks alone or in company. Nannies other horses and ponies out hacking. Used to calm and give confidence to others out and about. Totally safe with busy traffic or outside pubs with lots going on.

Boo is kind and gentle on the ground and always handled by children, will stand for hours to be pampered, loves to be groomed and washed. He has the patience of a saint. Amazing manners. He's happy to be groomed, fussed and pampered all day long. I know, I can let my children safely handle him to groom, bath, tack up, rug up, muck out and load.


Boo can be left for weeks without been ridden. He is in at night over the winter and out by day over the spring/summer on restricted grazing. He’s had laminitis once with his previous owners and we have been very strict about his regime and diet. He’s never shown any signs with us.

He's been fully shod due to the terrain where we live and work load and currently just fronts, but can go bare foot depending on work load and terrain. We live on a busy working farm so he's used to big machinery cattle, sheep and noise.

Up to date with all vaccinations. No health issues. Perfect for the vet, farrier, dentist and to clip.

From the stable to out and about, Boo is a joy. His temperament is second to none - loving, gentle, and cheekily charming.
This pony means the world to my son and to us as a family.
This is a very sad and difficult sale, and we are looking for the right home because he's only had 2 homes before us. The previous owners would like updates and to stay in touch. His last owners had Boo for 10 years from lead-rein to 2nd pony, he kept the three girls safe throughout their riding journey so he’s incredibly important to them as well as his first owner and myself.
The ideal home would be an experienced pony club family home with younger siblings looking to ride Boo once he’s outgrown.

Price includes tack and rugs . Strictly no time wasters . Homes will be vetted and please only enquire if you think you might be the next suitable home. Many Thanks.
