honest all rounder pony for sale


Ref #: 404153
£5,000
  • Black
  • Mare
  • 15 years
  • 14.1 hands

Unfortunate sale for this mare due to no fault of her own just due to me starting to outgrow her.

She has done abit of everything including eventing showjumping dressage and cross country schooling.

Out competing she is comfortably jumping 80-90s winning most times (speed has a bit to do with this!!) at home she has easily jumped 1.30 with me.

She can produce a nice, calm dressage test for some promising results.

Out on cross country she can be strong but lack confidence so relies a lot on her rider. unfortunately she is nappy which over time is improving with but still needs reassurance.

Not a novice ride as she can have her moments (which i am happy to discuss in further detail) and is known for her moves in the fields.

Good to clip, load and shoe.

Happy to answer any questions.

No time wasters as this is already heartbreaking.

Gary 12.2hh 10 year old gelding

Gary is a super flashy and well put together Welsh section B pony. He is by Teilwood Trysor out of a Eyarth Rio mare. He is a real eye catching type

Gary is a very talented pony, with 3 lovely paces and a very scopey jump. He is ultra careful and very willing. He has competed up to 75cm, been cross country and rides sweetly on the flat making a nice shape.

He is not sharp at all and is very level headed. He’s got an extremely trainable brain, the world is his oyster and he really will go on to do anything! He would excel in working hunter, dressage, bsja and would also be a fantastic export for the USA hunter jumpers

This boy really deserves a 5 star home, he is the friendliest pony and always wants cuddles and kisses

**EDIT Prosecco has just jumped 3/3 DC’s at Onley Junior Show and has qualified for Bluechip in the 1.05 Sapphire Final**

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 07880875030

Wanted 13:3 - 15:1 hh Safe and sane happy hacker

  • Wanted 13:3 - 15:1 hh Safe and sane happy hacker
  • Experienced long term loving home awaits right horse
  • Gelding preferred but non marish mare considered

Due to the loss of my wonderful Connemara in January I’m searching for my new best friend.

I primarily hack but would like the opportunity to do beach rides and holidays away with my friend and her horse.

I’m not adverse to a veteran or a horse/pony with health issues as long as fully disclosed. Something that’s been there and done it but now needs a quieter life would be ideal.

Must be good in all traffic and travel in a trailer.

I’ve owned and ridden horses all my life but I’m now in my sixties and no longer brave so no bucking, rearing, bolting or napping, no project horses and no dealers.

In return I can offer a long term experienced home on my  own land at my home with other horses, all year turnout with field shelter and stabling as required 

References available.

Realistic budget for the right horse.

Jemima 13.2hh New Forest Mare

After more than two wonderful years Jemima has very sadly been outgrown and we are now seeking a five-star, loving home for this very special pony, where she will want for nothing.

Jemima is a 17-year-old (May 2009), 13.2hh dark bay registered New Forest mare. She would make a fantastic second pony for a confident rider who enjoys a forward, fun ride.

She's a genuine all-rounder with heaps of experience at pony club, riding club, camps, stay-away shows, and family holidays. We haven't done much dressage as it's not really my sons thing, but plenty of SJ, XC, arena eventing, barrel racing, and a little mounted games etc. She has also hunted in a previous home. Jemima is happiest popping around courses of 60-75cm with great success. She will jump bigger at home but may struggle with the spreads on 80cm+ in competition (venue dependant). She doesn't need to be ridden every day and is the same whether ridden once or 5 times a week. That said, Jemima loves an active varied life and would be wasted in a field being a happy hacker at weekends.

2025 Highlights
Horsford & District Riding Club 2025 league
70cm SJ League - 2nd
Junior Barrels Fastest Run of the season
Junior Barrels - 1st
Open Game - 1st
Overall Barrel Points - 1st
Other 2025 highlights also include attending the Pony Club Barrier Animal Health Spring Festival Arena Eventing champs, also qualifying for the BRC Winter Novice SJ Champs.

2024 Highlights:

Sunshine Tour Championships (huge classes of approx 65 competitors)
Supreme Champ 50/55 - 1st & 3rd
55cm - 5th & 5th
60cm - 4th
65cm - 3rd & 9th
Supreme Champ 60/65cm - 4th
Jumped 9 rounds across the weekend - 8 were clear!

On the ground, Jemima is an absolute sweetheart; easy to catch, groom, tack up, lead, shoe (happy barefoot or shod), and she travels well in both lorry (3.5t & 7.5t) and trailer. She is equally happy to live out or be stabled. Vaccinations and dental are up to date (Jan 2026). She requires sedation for clipping and may occasionally pull a face when her girth is tightened but she has no vices, she does not rear, kick, bite, bolt or buck.

She is safe in open spaces; although keen and forward. If your child is frightened of speed she's not the pony for you! Jemima is excellent to hack both alone and in company, and is used to heavy village traffic including buses, lorries, tractors and more, making her a truly reliable partner.

She comes with her saddle, 2 bridles, and an extensive collection of rugs & boots.

Forward-going, fun second pony

OPI

Incredible full up 138 LHC.
His showjumping career has spanned over 10yrs, all his history is on paper, no lost history. No gaps in his record just a good consistent pony.

jumped 258 BS classes and been DC in 138 classes this includes royal highland 138cm HOYS 138cm HOYS newcomers,RIHS 138cm,winter JC, qualifiers which we all know when you got too go 3 rounds its not easy too have a triple clear.hes jumped tons of classes for tiny tots and been a good servant.

3rd in the silver league standings

5th in the Scottish home pony final.

2nd royal highland championship

7th in the cats and pipes final at wales and west.

4th in the 110m junior derby

3rd Scottish HOYS

3rd in the schools NSEA league table

This is just too name a handful of results.

Was joint 1st a couple of weeks ago at arena uk small pony premier with a small 11y old rider who had never sat on him before this show. This is a testament to just how genuine he is.

He can be ridden every day or left off a month and never bucks rears naps or bolts.

A perfect pony.

Although he’s a super easy pony this being said this is with kids who are established BS and pony club kids. he’s not a riding school pony and wont suit novce riders. Opi is best now suited too a last year established 138 rider who wants too bring him back up the ranks and jump big tracks, he will have a stop with an unbalanced unconnected rider, he’s done his time teaching wobbly kids he would now really appreciate a secure well established child with the dream of HOYS in there sights.

Never naughty appart from the stop but he is an established competition pony not a kick kick pony.

Please send a wasap message rather than call and ucall u back, we have no service at home.

Absolutely top class schoolmater FEI pony with a fabulous temperament. Training entirely by a pony rider. Always wants to please, never naughty.

Incredibly kind on the ground, you would never know he was a stallion, he requires no special treatment at all & has always been handled by his rider.

He has High Profile/Premier League wins with scores up to 71%.

Selected to compete for Great Britain at 6 CDI’s.

He has this season taken a new rider who had only previously competed at Prelim to competing, & gaining the International qualifying score, at Premier League & High Profile shows. He is only now becoming available as he has become prematurely outgrown.

We are sure the best is yet to come from this hugely talented pony.

He is also a Elite Graded stallion who would be a huge asset to any sports pony stud.

Seeking a talented horse or pony to loan


Ref #: 403908
  • 14 year old competitive jockey
  • Passion for Show Jumping
  • Short term Summer Loan or Long Term Competition Home Offered
  • 14 year old competitive jockey
  • Passion for Show Jumping
  • Short term Summer Loan or Long Term Competition Home Offered

I am seeking a talented horse or pony to loan for my 14 year old daughter due to the long term injury of her 16hh horse, therefor my funds are tied up with this unforeseen and upsetting situation.

Her passion and love is within Show jumping where she has competed up to 90cm unaffiliated and 1'10 under instruction.
We offer a varied all rounder home, on a private yard with school, individual turn out, great hacking and access to the moors. 3.5t spacious horse box, 3 very local competition venues right on our doorstep and a fantastic coach who teaches us both. Active pony club member, who has competed up to regional champ level and recently qualified for the barrier animal health champs, however decided to pass down to another member as she secured a ride on someone else's horse for the day!

Not your average teen rider! Along side myself, she schools people's ponies locally and is paid to do so, often being asked to ride difficult ponies, she is offered competitive rides often, which is great as she can earn some money and gain lots of experience riding different horses, often only riding them for the first time on the day in the warm up! But its not quite the same as having a number 1 to love, groom and ride.

She has been producing ponies with me for the past 3 years, backing, schooling and competing, often riding my 16'2 Dutch warmblood mare, whilst retraining her OTTB, said horse is very highly strung and complexed without the now long term injury. She transitioned to horses 1.5 years ago with ease having had a very successful 2 years on her 14'2 and various smaller ponies previously who were either backed or produced to well schooled allrounders, sold to fund the next height.

She has the ability to get on most horses/ponies and work them out for the first time, getting results and harmony quickly. She has an excellent seat and balance, has been taught to ride from the seat rather than the hand, very good hands and also to ride and hold forward horses/ponies to a fence.

We are very open to young and green providing the talent is there and it wants to jump, equally it would be lovely to have something established as we have never had the luxury of having something ready made!

Would consider going BS in the future, but this is absolutely not essential and would only affiliate when the right partnership is formed.

Open to full up 14'2 pony or up to 16'2 horse, as she is 5’4 and still growing, something easy to handle on the ground is a must however we don't mind quirks and spice under saddle just nothing nasty or dangerous.

Will consider short term summer loan or a special long term option!

Might be situation where someone is going off to uni, injured or time and facility restrictions means you have something talented that needs to get out and about ready to to be sold or something you are looking to be competed at a decent level longer term. Jockey is available now and keen to have a season of competing, has a reserve camp space in August at Pontispool where she will have to steal my horse if she doesn't have one!

Many references can be provided, we offer a knowledgeable and experienced home where I can assist with schooling and riding as a mother daughter duo, but the main rider competing is my daughter.

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.

His results from the last 2 years:

Competed and won in hickstead main ring.


We and everyone that has met him thinks the absolute world of this pony, he deserves and loving home where he can do what he loves without being pushed.
He is still in JC points for Fox but due to the size and distances of HOYS qualifiers we believe he is more suited to winning at Nationals, Teams, Bluechip, POYS etc.

Passed 5 stage vet 2023, NEVER lame, sick or sorry.

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

Never bucks, rears, bolts, bites.

Ridden in a rubber snaffle for everything!

Absoloutely heartbreaking sale of our lovely boy, will ONLY go to a 10* horse loving home where we can keep in contact!

we are motivated to sell as need to move on. Dozens of videos available on request, please no timewasters or joy riders as this is a heartbreaking sale as it is.
