True mountain pony type with the prettiest head, balanced conformation, clean limbs and active, free movement across all three paces. She is willing, quick to learn, forward-thinking and loves a job.
Flossy is a lovely little character, who has been so much fun to own. With my youngest daughter on the lead we had a busy and successful lead rein season in 2025 competing in ridden showing, working hunter pony, hunter trials, SJ and even handy pony. She has behaved beautifully in the ring, producing mannerly shows when required, or happily upping the pace for a competitive round when showjumping against the clock!
At home she has introduced my daughter to riding off-lead, trotting round poles and cross poles, obstacle courses and hacking through our fields and down the lane. She’s put up with wobbly moments while perfecting up-downs and first canter strides on the lunge, and has stood patiently whilst being poked and prodded, brushed backwards and for those awkward first attempts at picking out feet. This current season she has had outings off the lead rein, competing in beginner showing classes, WH and exploring local lanes and xc courses.
My eldest daughter (10) has also taken her to arena hires, xc and show jumping where she has been bold, brave and super fun competing up to 50cm, and popping the odd bigger fence at home. Not in the slightest spooky, she has jumped water trays, fillers, coloured poles, xc fences, ditches, steps and splashes happily through water. She has untapped potential in WHP classes for a competitive little jockey (Tiny tots, Cradle Stakes, M&M etc) with her beautiful natural jump.
Whilst mostly showing at local level, Flossy was 3rd in the one LIHS LR Working Sports Pony we entered - in a ring full of top class combinations - so she also is a neat little prospect for STARS, LIHS and the Burghley WSP classes.
She has been introduced to fancy dress, handled regularly by children, loves being groomed and fussed and is very low maintenance. She has been regularly ridden bareback, in a headcollar, vaulted on, surrounded by dogs, sheep, poultry and has the foundations in place to be the perfect child’s pony.
Never sick or sorry, marches out of her stable every day and is very easy to have around. No health issues, fit and well. Good as gold for the farrier, clipping, bathing and up-to-date with dentist, physio and vaccinations. Loads and travels like a dream.
Will come with bridle and her rugs. Black Country worker saddle available by separate negotiation as bought new. Also full Le Mieux Wisteria set available if interested as this is “her colour”!!
We seek a knowledgeable and loving family home who can offer a varied life. I ask that no novices express interest due to her age and stage. She is not fully established as a FYFR as still low mileage and needs clear guidance from her rider, but is a truly lovely little family pony with so much to give.
Phonecalls preferred. Hundreds of photos and videos available of all we’ve done together. Private yard with ménage in Derbyshire for viewings.
