Top Track 128 17 year old JA Irish Mare

We bought Sky 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 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
POYS 128 Grand Prix
128 Gold league 2024/2025

Sky 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. Will jump off any stride, she gives the kids buckets of confidence as they can trust her to get them to the other side of a fence. She will take you to a jump 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. Will happily step down for a younger child around smaller tracks or give them confidence over the bigger fences.

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.

SERIOUS ENQUIRIES ONLY PLEASE. NO DAY DREAMERS OR TYRE KICKERS

  • Riding Pony
  • Grey
  • Gelding
  • 16 years
  • 13.2 hands (LHC)
  • Very competitive SJ and AE Pony
  • Beautiful paces & very well schooled
  • Lovely Character

”Woody” is well known on the BS circuit and is fast and careful.

Previous achievements include:
- 1m Derby win at Wales & West with current & previous rider
- Qualified RIHS 138 class
- Treble clear 138 HOYs qualifier
- POYs championship winner (95cm class)
- Home Pony 138 teams
- Numerous wins up to and including 110

Woody is a very special pony and has given my daughter so much joy over the past few years and now very sadly outgrown. He is lovely to look after, hacks alone or in company. Great to box/shoe/clip (sedate for inside back legs). Occasionally cheeky to catch but that is easy to manage.

He would suit a confident and competitive BS or BE rider/and or a very ambitious Pony Club home (he loves camp!). He is straightforward on the flat but lights up when he sees a fence as he loves to jump.

He is a very special and handsome boy and we have priced him very competitively to give us the best chance of finding him the right home and rider.

HARRI - ALL ROUNDER GENTLEMAN

  • Potential to be a winning show horse or working hunter
  • Nice paces and an amazing scope
  • Keen to learn and polite in doing so
I’ve had Harri 3½ years, since he was 4 years old and it has been the most rewarding few years ever, but now it’s time for him to make somebody else’s dreams come true. Due to my irregular shift work I don't have the time to devote to Harri. He has such potential and, but sadly I just don't have the time any more. It's not fair to him and it breaks my heart.

Harri is such a gentleman to hack alone and in company, and isn't not fussed by surrounding noise and traffic.

On the ground he is fantastic to handle, easy to catch, tack up and groom; stands brilliant for the farrier, and also the dentist (not sedated)

Harri has had experience at different places such as winning the Royal Highland as a foal with his Dam, local pony club shows where he’s thrived, and county shows where he hasn’t put a foot wrong. He’s been to the beach numerous times and also cross country where he’s had no fear to jump what’s in front of him. He's also amazing to load and travel

Although Harri has been ridden by novice riders and been as good as gold, he 100% needs somebody who is confident and knowledgeable as he is a lot of horse to handle and has lots to give

He is a dream to school and jump where he’s proven his scope not just over wings but cross country also, with working hunter potential!

Harri is open for viewings and vetting,

He is ideal for a keen little jockey that wants to be confident and competitive at 70cm-1m

Great to hack, in company or alone, perfect in the heaviest of traffic or open spaces.

Always kind and tries to help out his jockey, jumps off any stride.

Has qualified for and been to lots of PC and NSEA Champs 70,80,90 and been to PC camp every year.

The very sad sale of our beloved Archie (DANASH ACTION MAN), a wonderful second pony, mother/daughter/family share or hunting pony.

We have had Archie for 2.5 years and in that time has taken my daughter (then age 9) from coming off the lead rein, to competing at Bicton PC mini champs (2024, 2025), local PC comps, camps, NSEA grassroots, ODEs, beach rides, cross country and everything in between.

He's a confidence giving school master, with three lovely paces, stylish movements and he's very handsome!

Archie enjoys low level jumping. He's taken my daughter from 40cm assisted classes to qualifying for PC regional mini champs and NSEA grassroots at Hickstead in 60+cm. He's a steady pony and my daughter has enjoyed all the activities our PC and school team has offered with Archie.

Archie has competed up to 70cm and happily will hop over 80cm out schooling.

Archie is more whoa than go, making him a brilliant ride for building the important confidence in children. He is kind and absolutely loves his job, occasionally he will put a stop in, but never nasty. He has taught my daughter to ride extremely well, with a good seat and soft hands. He responds to clear aids which has been really great for developing her as a cracking little junior rider.

Archie has been out hunting with the South Dorset this season, ridden by an adult. He proved himself true and brave, jumping anything he was allowed. He has a good pace to keep up with the field but equally was calm at the meet or whilst waiting around.

Archie has great showing potential, having competed at HOYS with his previous owners, although this isn't something we have explored in his time with us. He also is a good dressage prospect, with three lovely paces, and he's much admired wherever he goes!!
We haven't done much dressage as my daughter prefers jumping. The tests she has done have scored reasonably well, and marks lost were definitely rider errors!

He loves to hack, and is perfectly safe in all traffic and farm vehicles. He's safe in open spaces and will happily hack out alone.
Good to catch, shoe, clip, vet, load etc. Happily lives out with us 24/7 but could be stabled fine too.

We have never had any health issues with Archie. He is shod on the front.

He can be strong on the ground, but a Monty Roberts halter has gone a long way to stopping this. He's a Welsh, and has plenty of character (in a good way!)... If he thinks he can get the better of you on the ground he might give it a try.

Archie will best suit a varied life... hacking, lessons, pony club, hunting etc. He's not a competition pony, he's not super speedy, and doesn't enjoy the pressure of big competitions, so not suited to be out in the ring every weekend.

We absolutely adore this pony and he will only go to the very best home. He has been the very best second pony I could have hoped for my daughter. He's hardly outgrown as his cob-type build will make him suitable for teens/small adults, but my daughter is ready for more speed against the clock and bigger jumps.

Vettings are welcomed.
5* homes only

Please whatsapp me for more photos/videos. Serious enquiries will have a phone call with me to gauge suitability and home before arranging a viewing.

Currently showjumping with my daughter, who has sadly outgrown him. JC in BSJA, very confident around Novice/Discovery heights with a nervous rider and always tries for her. Has competed up to 110 cm, excels at 80 to 90cm. Ideal partner for someone wanting to move up the lower heights to around a meter or for plaited WHP.

Gave the JC/JD RHS quals in 2025 (1m5-1m15) a good try but found the large 148s striding in doubles a bit much. £481 in winnings, still in Discovery points.

Would suit a variety of homes as he is forward but sensible and always in the ribbons! Easy to do in all ways and a real unicorn on the ground. Hacks alone and in company. Good to clip, load, for the farrier and dentist.

He will only go to the best of homes if one is not found she will just run him alongside her other horse in Workers. 5 figure budget required.

Definitely a 1st Pony

13 yrs schoolmaster

Exceptional gelding with tonnes of experience for sale. Has spent the last few years in the same riding school where he has been ridden by complete novice and intermediate riders both children and small adults. He has done all flat work lessons, privates and groups. He is very genuine and loves to hack out, he doesn’t pull, rush, spook or get nervous of anything, he is the most loving gelding you could ever wish to meet. . he is one of the favourite with our SEN children and small adults, he participates in all our RDA lessons, hacks and stable management sessions.

Absolutely no vices, when ridden, in the stable or in the field and has brilliant manners enabling anyone to handle him safely and with ease, will stand for hours with no head collar or lead rope being groomed.

He has exceptional manners and ticks so many boxes for someone looking for a very safe easy schoolmaster, with no ifs or buts.

Frankie will hack out alone or in company in the heaviest fast moving traffic without batting an eye lid. He has seen all farm machinery as we use it on the farm daily. He is 100% safe, steady and collected when ridden in all paces across open fields, regardless of whether he is at the front, middle, back of the ride or on his own, he will not rush or pull even on the way home.

Snaffle mouth with absolutely no gadgets.

He lives within a mixed herd, stabled during the day and turned out at night, he prefers to be stabled full time, he keeps himself to himself and never causes any trouble despite being out with a large mixed herd.
He is currently barefoot and has excellent manners with the farrier and could be shod if needed. he ties up anywhere, and loves attention.
He is excellent to catch, clip, bath, load, travel, with the farrier, vet and dentist.

Frankie would give confidence to any rider / handler and could easily return to low level riding club / pony club / fun rides / beach rides.

He can go for months without work then be tacked up and ridden without any fuss, he is extremely low maintenance, he maintains his weight all year round on grass, hay, haylage during the winter months.
He has never been lame had laminitis, sweet-itch, sarcoids, never been sick or sorry, no lumps or bumps. Never needed a vet in the whole time we have had him.

I can honestly say he has never been lame, sick or sorry, my vet can verify this, he passes the riding school annual license inspections with flying colours, this is equivalent to a stage 2 vetting.

Looking for a five star private home to give someone the opportunity to purchase a safe and very sensible horse, with so much to offer.

Absolute heartbreaking sale but we like to change our stock around every few years to give our fantastic horses and ponies the opportunity to experience a one to one home again. Sold on behalf of a working livery.

Barney - What can I say about this pony?

If you are looking for a pony that will help restore your child's confidence or for a child just starting to ride, Barney is the one. He will take a child from jumping poles on the ground to 70 cm. Barney has a few different gears and will always do as he's asked, adjusting to the rider.

My daughter was at rock bottom with her confidence, but Barney and she grew together. They won the Leinster Championships, got placed 6th in the All Ireland inter provincials and he has jumped in almost every equestrian centre in Leinster. We trust him with our lives!

My daughter does everything with him, from bathing and tacking up to turning out, mucking out while he’s in the stable, and loading. She took him to pony camp and had a great time. Unfortunately, the time has come for us to find this one-in-a-million pony another rider, as we are ready to step up!

Serious enquiries only. Absolutely no dreamers or time wasters.

Barney will only go to the right home with the right family

  • 14.2 hands

Lady has been a much loved member of our family for 2 years but she is now sadly outgrown. She has proven herself as an eventing type having competed at JCB Eventing Champs (90cm) in August 2025 as well as coming 2nd at Go BE 90 at the South of Scotland Horse Trials in May 2025

She was placed 5th individually at Northern Regional Eventing Champs in 2024 and was a member of the winning team.

Qualified Barrier Spring Festival for Show jumping (2024) and Arena Eventing (2025), 80cm and 90cm respectively and has also qualified for this year's Spring Festival at Show jumping (90cm).

Easy to do, perfect to load and will happily walk on herself onto a trailer. Doesn't need a companion to travel and has travelled with others she doesn't know. Never bucked, reared or napped, just loves to please and is forward and forgiving over a fence. XC/jumping is by far her favourite thing to do however she can also do a nice dressage test. She is a very genuine mare, kind and loyal to her rider.

We live on a busy dairy farm and as a result she is used to cows, dogs and noisy machinery. She is often hacked out in open fields on our farm, the beach, forest trails and never tanks off.

Lady is an absolute 'been there, done that' pony who knows her job and looks after her rider.

Serious enquiries only, a 5* home with a kind jockey is essential.

Videos available on request.

Based south west Scotland.
