‘Rowfantina Take a Bow’ - An absolutely heartbreaking sale of our much loved pony, Percy, who is hopelessly outgrown. Same home for the past 5 years.

Percy has taken my incredibly nervous little girl from being too scared to trot on the lead rein to cantering round small jumping courses, showing FR, farm rides, beach rides and endless hacking. He is a super safe, steady pony who is more woah than go.

Showing - previously professionally produced and qualified for HOYs and RIHS. He was 4th at HOYs in 2018 in LR M&M. We have shown local level and done LR and then progressed to FR where he has been incredibly safe in the busiest of rings. He knows his LR job inside out. We qualified for STARS where he behaved impeccably despite the electric atmosphere and didn’t put a hoof wrong. No working in/calmers/ear plugs needed at all.

Jumping - we haven’t done lots of jumping as my daughter was not a big fan. But he happily trots/canters round cross pole classes. Very safe, jumped show jumps/small fillers/working hunter fences and small jumps on farm rides. Never over jumps, just potters over.

Dressage - has done some LR and intro classes, lovely comments from the judges. He has beautiful paces.

Hacking - loves to go out hacking, hacks alone or in company. Hacks on roads with all traffic/tractors etc and is never spooky. Great in open spaces, never gets silly, even if the others cantering off will happily stay at the back. Happy to be lead from other horses. Great on the beach.

Currently stabled with daily turnout and goes out overnight in summer. Happily turned out with mares/geldings or on his own. Is a very good doer so we do restrict his grazing. Never had laminitis but we are careful to avoid. Can sometimes pull faces in the stable/at feed time but would never bite/kick.

Perfect to travel again alone or with others, self loads, stands on the box all day, never gets upset if the others leave him alone on the box. Perfect to clip/farrier (2 fronts)/dentist/vet. Will stand to be groomed and pampered by little ones all day. Can pull little ones to tasty hay/grass if they’re leading but never tries it on with more experienced handlers. My daughter (now 11) does everything with him herself now. He has had his knees injected for mild arthritis but doesn’t affect his performance at all.

We are looking for a very special, loving home where Percy could make another family’s dreams come true and help teach more little children to ride and have lots of fun.

Hundreds of photos/videos available on request for serious enquires only.

Star is a phenomenal lead rein pony who wins everything from showing classes, WHP to showjumping classes.

She has also hunted on the lead rein and was foot perfect.

Off the lead at home and at shows she is very safe and sensible but lacks the confidence to jump fillers off the lead.

Happy to be lead from any horse.

She’s 100% in traffic, clipping, showing ect.

A much loved pony who is sadly out grown so will only go to the very best of homes.

Last show she went to, she won every class and then went reserve champion in the WHP.

Based at Keysoe International, Bedfordshire

Thistledown San Siro (Rocky) needs no introduction. He is without a doubt one of the most successful, genuine and consistent Welsh Section A’s in the country. His results speak for themselves and have been more than we could have ever dreamed of, winning HOYS and Royal International multiple times and taking 5 champions.

He has been the most amazing pony for us and a true rock for our family taking both children who had never competed at HOYS, from Lead Rein and First Ridden to the Junior and Open classes. Rocky is the ultimate schoolmaster, with the most amazing temperament. With us, Rocky has always been produced from home and solely by children, including when he went mini champion at HOYS 2023 with a young jockey and since then has taken another two children safely to RI and HOYS in the FR and one of the children to RI and HOYS this year in the juniors, without an adult to lunge/ride him.

This is such a difficult advert to write and as many people know, he is a huge part of our family and truly loved. However, he is only 15 and we would prefer him not to spend the rest of his days unridden in the field. He loves the varied life we give him on the farm and is used to farm animals and machinery. Rocky enjoys competing, hacking around the farm, pole work, and even mounted games! We have always treated Rocky as a fun pony and the children have shared him taking part in different classes at the shows where he has often gone from opens, to juniors to first ridden and vice versa, with a quick change of jockey and bridle. Rocky has also taken part in the working hunter classes winning the novice M&M cradle stakes and open M&M cradle stakes at the BSPS Summer Championships as well as narrowly missing qualifying for the Junior M&M WHP at HOYS.However, we would prefer him to only compete in flat classes now.

He has had countless Supremes, Champions and wins including winning most of the major county shows in either FR, Juniors, or Open A’s. Rocky has the most beautiful head, movement and lots of bone, being a true stamp of a Welsh Section A . He has enabled our daughter to win the Black Country Saddles Rider of the Year in 2020 and our son to be selected for the final of Showman of the Year in 2022 , as well as being nominated for the Showing World Awards Native Pony of the Year in 2022 and 2023.

We would like to lease Rocky with a view to a possible sale in the future, only to a suitable home.

We would love another child to have the opportunity to have the treasured and amazing memories Rocky has given us.

Stunning 6 Year old - Future Star Lead Rein / First Ridden.Would measure in as a 122cm

A super genuine and beautifully mannered 6-year-old Bradley Show Hunter Pony, ideal for the show ring. Recently competed at Stars, placing 11th in a strong First Ridden class, behaving impeccably with a child who had never previously competed at this level and proving his outstanding temperament and rideability.

Sadly offered for sale due to the child now moving out of the class, forcing a genuine sale.

Would make a fantastic Lead Rein or First Ridden

Honest and safe handled daily by children

Not currently a first year first ridden but with a little time will easily become one

Ready to step up and be highly competitive next season

Straight, genuine pony with a brilliant attitude

This is a lovely pony with all the potential to go far in the show ring with the right child.

A true confidence-giver and a pleasure to have on the yard. He can be cheeky but no malic in anything he does. Fantastic breeding behind him bred to preform

Show Record:

• Qualified for Royal International 2023
• 6th place in his only HOYS qualifier that same year
• 2024:

Enjoyed a quieter year at home due to family commitments. Hacked out happily, attended small dressage competitions, and did 30/40cm clear round jumping. Thrives off jumping. Ridden off the lead at home by a competent 6–7-year-old. Although small, he’s not a FYFR (First Ridden type) — more suited to a confident, capable little rider.

2025:
Spent the season with Sarah Parker, originally intended for a LR campaign. Sadly, following a family bereavement, the season was taken slowly. Next year’s jockey will be out of class, so he’s now available for a new home.

A genuine, sweet-natured pony who loves his job, is easy to have around, and has the ability to shine again in the right hands.
