https://www.youtube.com/@Weenie-10

Her breeder is J. Dart from Anglesey WPCS Judge

Rock-Queen has been bred for her quality and temperament for which she has in abundance and is so chilled and has a willing to learn
Most of the Llafar Stud foals are sold abroad and are doing extremely well in their chosen careers.

Queenie Is A Lovely Friendly Mare Who Loves Nothing More Than Kisses!
She's Been Exposed To Various Things That Might Possibly Make Her Spook When She's Out And About.
Such As Dogs,Pushchairs, Flags, Bunting And Washing Especially Tractors And Cars.
Not Forgetting Cows, Pigs, Alpacas And Chickens.

She is up to date with her Vaccinations, Teeth and Feet. She's currently barefoot and has never had any shoes on.

She's so calm and very confident that she can be schooled by a child as well as an adult. She lunges with her bridle and saddle, or just a headcollar on as well as free rein. Just Look At That Jump That She's Got!!

She's learning Liberty and is picking it up quickly, She long reins beautifully and would be suitable for riding as well as driving with a bit more schooling.
I've Also Been Working With Her From The Ground On Some Lateral Moves, Such As Shoulder-In, Serpentines, Turns And Side Steps Such As Might Be Needed When Out And About, So That She's Got An Idea About What To Do

She is a late starter with riding as she has been started this year and is riding away nicely with someone walking at her side. I am working with her to build up her paces as well as some lateral work from the ground.

The picture with the girl on her was taken about 10 minutes after backing her, she really is that calm about everything. All That She Wants To Do Is To Please You And She Absorbs Everything That You Do With Her And She Gives It Her All

Rock-Queen has been shown Lightly In-Hand at Selby in the summer
She came a respectable 2nd and 3rd in her classes which were large ones.

As she has not been long as she was started and she is still green and sharp, I would recommend that she would make a fantastic 2nd ridden pony for a child although with some more schooling she will make a brilliant 1st ridden as she looks after her jockey already.

She's not been jumped under saddle, so she's very low mileage with no problem, she's just jumped in the field and the school, but she's got a cracking careful jump as can be seen in a picture. That one was around 2.5' high and she cleared it with loads to spare

Rock-Queen just needs a friend who wants to go and have some fun with her. She hasn't got a jockey with us anymore and she's too good to be wasted being a field

If you feel that you are the right person for Queenie then please get in touch And Drop Me A Message Or Text As I Don't Always Hear The Phone And I Will Return Your Call

She Will Come With Her Wardrobe, To Include Turnout Rugs, Fly Rugs, Day-Glow Exercise Rug, Bridle, Neck Fleece And Vests. If There's Anything Else Then Of Course It Will Be Included.

Don't Forget That Ponies Of This Quantity Don't Come About Every Day!

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.

Fabulous quality lead rein pony, true to type. Rio has taken to his job so well.

A late starter as he was just a lad in a field when we bought him for his undeniably fabulous looks and conformation.

He has come home and been well handled by the children all summer, leading, grooming, feet picked out and all the lovely things with kids.

We then sent him to Sam and Georgia Darlington to be broken and brought on which he has done with a smile on his face.

Lead rein is his absolute job and he loves it, just does not put a foot wrong.

So there we are, as the grandchild he was destined for has other ideas so he is for sale to go on and delight a new family.

Totally unknown and ready to shine.

Call me for a chat.

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.

Available for season 26 to contest the new class First Pony of Hunter Type/ First ridden.
Priestwood Rocstar (122cm SHP)
Horse of the year show champion 2021, 2023 & reserve champion 2025 in the Lead Rein SHP class. Rocky needs no introduction… 

Priestwood Rocstar has been one of the most outstanding Lead Rein Show Hunter Ponies of all time. Hoys champion with a huge fan club, admirers wherever he goes. A true show ring favourite who absolutely loves being out competing and in the thick of it.

For Season 26, Rocky is available to lease to contest the new First Pony of Hunter Type class — a class he has all the qualities for. Sadly as we have no jockey for this new class with Gray now out of this section. As Rocky thrives on competition, we feel this is the perfect opportunity for him to continue doing what he loves most. He’s too good to be a field ornament.

A very special, proven pony
A top class pony, he is to remain on his current yard in the North East/North Yorkshire area where he has been expertly produced for the last 6 years, the leaser would responsible for the show production fees.
Produced and overseen by top producer Sarah Newbould Emmerson Show Team

Please call for more information we have owned Roc for 6 years and know all there is to know about him .

• Genuine and easy in all ways

Porcha is looking for a little person to love her as her current owner has seriously outgrown her.

She has done a bit of everything. PC, showjumping, hunting and showing making her a super all rounder.

A real been there, done that type. Literally, nothing fazes her!

Hacks alone or in company.

A forward, fun ride. A real speed demon around a showjumping course. Always guaranteed to bring home the red ribbons.
She loves her job and shows no signs of slowing down.

She really is the most well mannered pony both on the ground and ridden.

Easy to do in all ways.
Great to load, clip and with the farrier.

Barefoot all year round.

Will live in or out.

A true gem of a pony.

• Has done dressage, showjumping and Cross country
• Good out hacking and easy for any child to handle

Jack is a stunning young pony, black, 4 white socks. 5yo Gelding.

Jack has been completely produced by a now 10yo girl who has sadly outgrown him.

He has done Dressage and Showjumping competitions as well as Cross Country Schooling, polo cross and mounted games at pony club camp too.

He is totally a childs pony to handle and do, never strong to lead etc.

Jack is still young so no complete novice homes please. He is fab for a child to ride off the leadrein and never strong, he just lacks abit of confidence jumping fillers with a small child but we feel this is just a case of getting out and doing more arena hires, shows etc. Cross country he is fab.

Jack has tonnes of scope and easily pops 70cm at home with his 10yo jockey.

We really feel this pony is going to come into his own over the next few years, we have just run out of time with him!

No vices, good to Hack, for farrier etc.

REDUCED — Difficult advert to write as I was hoping to him through the novices but due to a never ending wait list for my clients I need to be realistic!

Rhydyfelin Star Of Merlin

Merlin is an absolute delight to have around, easy to handle in all ways and loves a cuddle! He oozes quality and there are not many old fashioned types like him about. With Thistledown lines through him..: He’ll make an excellent candidate for the fr/junior/cradles - would also trim up nicely as a SHP! I believe he would make it to the top in the right hands.

I brought him in a July as just sat on to produce for the open As . Since then he has attended two ridden shows (winning and taking reserve champ at his first one), and a few arena hires including showing promise over solid fences.

He has had several different aged jockeys on him proving safe each time and he is always eager to learn. Eventhough he is green he is never naughty or malicious and really does give his all in every situation.

Has jumped the odd small course at home and is proving willing into a fence.

Has only hacked out in company but leads or follows. Great in most traffic, can have a look at big machinery but doesn’t do anything silly.

Up to date with everything. Physio is happy to discuss him!

No known health issues or past injuries

Open to viewings and vettings - happy to keep here to produce @ Olivia Holmes Equestrian

• Welsh Section A
• Chestnut Roan
• Mare
• 10 years
• 12 hands

• Done PC, games, lead rein dressage, local showing, hacking
• Lead rein or first ridden for more confident child
• Sold from field

A pair of unregistered Section A mares (16yrs and 10yrs) offered for sale together. They are mother and daughter and have lived their whole lives together; we simply cannot bear to sell them apart, so they will only be sold as a pair.

The older mare is 16 years old. She has previously done Pony Club activities and local shows, enjoys popping small cross poles, and is happy hacking both on and off the lead rein. She is experienced, but like many Welsh ponies she does have a cheeky streak, so would be best suited to a more confident child when off the lead rein. Generally she is much more woah than go however.

The younger mare is 10 years old and very low mileage due to our lack of time. She was lightly backed by us and was quiet and straightforward, taking everything in her stride. She has not been pushed on but shows a great attitude.

Both ponies are currently out of work and living in the field due to lack of time, so they will need to be slowly and sympathetically brought back into work. For this reason, a knowledgeable and understanding home is essential. They are sold as seen from the field.

They are not world beaters, but are real characters with funny personalities and will be best friends for a new child.

This is a very sad sale and as such no time wasters or dealers please.
£2000 for the pair.

Please contact via text message in the first instance, due to working hours.

Woodhouse Hari

13yr old Palomino Gelding was bought for Daughter as a lead rein pony, he was great done mostly lead rein hacking he's forward going but safe my daughter was only 1yr old when we got him and i walked miles with him, He will also run round arena with kids on a rope and jump over little jumps he's a good fun wee guy

He hasn't done any ridden work really for about 18months due to being such a great nanny / companion for our foal last year and then again this year, he was ridden for a couple of weeks last summer to see if he would go of lead read and tbh he wasn't naughty but she's a lead rein pony he didn't have a clue and we didn't work at it 

He has been great as a companion to our foals, youngsters and broodmares the last couple of years and takes next to no management he's never had laminitis and is out at grass 24/7, he's good to catch, never bitten or kicked, He could easily be brought back into work but we just don't have the time to keep him in work till he sells so he's sold as is from the field but you could shove a saddle on him tomorrow, i have a couple of short videos of him under saddle to show he is broken and safe.

He currently out in field unrugged living his best hairy pony life so expect a dirty hairy pony when you visit. also have his inky dinky saddle for sale that i would do a deal with.

Lovely Lola, back under saddle after weaning her foal and proving to be gentle, easy, genuine and fun!

Hacking, jumping, handled by children, turnout alone and in company. Doesn’t put a foot out of place, she is lacking milage but her brain is superb as are her manners.

Up to date with vaccinations; farrier, worming etc. A real sweetheart who wants to please and be loved. Will make a cracking show pony but equally happy as a pony club/family friend.
