Super safe LR pony - 11.1hh unreg Welsh mare


Ref #: 408174
  • Exceptionally safe with tiny children – a true confidence-giving first pony
  • Proven in traffic, at busy shows & events – calm, reliable and unflappable
  • Kind, patient and easy to handle – loves grooming, fuss and attention

  • Exceptionally safe with tiny children – a true confidence-giving first pony
  • Proven in traffic, at busy shows & events – calm, reliable and unflappable
  • Kind, patient and easy to handle – loves grooming, fuss and attention

15 year old Welsh mare, approx 11.1hh, a genuine and hard-to-find safe first pony for very young children.

She is an absolute saint on the ground and will happily stand for hours to be groomed, fussed and pampered by the smallest of children. A true confidence giver and the type you can trust completely for little ones to learn around safely.

A proven lead rein – steady, sensible and takes excellent care of her rider. Perfect for first rides and building confidence. Not a top level competition pony, but invaluable for a child starting out / local shows.

Experience:
• Loves hacking and is excellent in traffic
• Unfazed at busy shows and events
• Has taken part in fancy dress and fun rides
• Used to children and a busy environment

Manners:
• Good for farrier (barefoot), dentist and to clip
• Good with the vet (just prefers a confident adult handling her)
• Loads well in a lorry, needs a bucket for a trailer but travels well and will stand all day at a show alone or in company

Management:
• Needs restricted grazing in summer months, has had laminitis in previous home which wasn’t disclosed to us. Easily managed with exercise and restricted grazing.
• Happy to live in or out, alone or in company

Ideal home:
A family looking for a safe, kind and genuine first pony where children can learn to handle, groom and ride with confidence.

Not suitable for a serious competitive home – she excels as a safe, steady child’s pony rather than a performance pony. We are selling her as lead rein only as that is all she has done in her 4 years with us.

A very sad sale of a much-loved pony – only available because children have given up riding and must go to the very best home.

Stunning 11.2 10yr old Bay Roan sec A

This pony has been an absolute pleasure during the time we have had her - she is a true lead rein pony

We purchased her last year in the hope of using her for a fr too, sadly she is far to laid back off the lead rein in the school so for this reason she is very sadly looking for a new home

She has attended local shows with us, hacked on and off the lead rein - she is a forward pony on the lead but absolutely 100 in every aspect

Happily pops a little fence and safe and sensible enough to have off the lead in open spaces / fun rides with out any worry

My children are quite competent jockeys age 6 and 10 however we have had a variety of friends children including very nervous ones on her and she really steps up and looks after them

She is good with the farrier / trailer / clip and trim - she is shod in front due to previously having laminitis in her previous home

We have managed her without any issues - she’s on soaked hay and some simple herbal supplements in her feed

She has previously been to the royal Welsh and would easily show as this was our plan with her

She will stand for hours tied up for the kids to groom and faff and good for them to handle on a daily basis

She’s an amazing pony and deserves her next little child to love

Happy to answer any questions - lots of videos etc available

Home is of up most importance as she is a huge part of our family and will only be sold to a home we are happy with

Sadly for sale due to change in circumstances.

Moon is strikingly beautiful, not only to look at but also his movement and is sure to turn heads wherever he goes. He could easily make a top show/WHP or pony club pony in the future. He has Hoys juniors written all over him. He has very well sought after recorded breeding

He has been long reined and sat on. However, he can still be quite nervous so could do with more groundwork before being ridden away

He is up to date with vaccinations, teeth and is good to trim, load and travel. No vices, can just be a little grumpy around food

In a previous home he was shown inhand as a 3yr old and was always placed

Woodford Rupert - 4 years old Welsh section c gelding 12hh

Been professionally backed and is going sweetly.

Walk, trots and canters just lacks balance but to be expected.

Has been hacked out mostly in company, ridden through open fields and had little jump.

I personally think this little fella will make a fab WHP in the right home.

Can be forward but nothing nasty, just loves his work.

Due to his age he is very low mileage, but has been to arena hires and a couple of little shows and behaved amazing.

He has an amazing jump in him.

Super talented little lad.

His sire has been to HOYS in the workers and his dam was broke for driving.

Upto date with feet, teeth and worming.

Home is more important than price.

  • Handled by children
  • Very polite pony, easy to do in all ways
  • Loves hacking & low level jumping

Very sadly outgrown, been there done it, perfect confidence giver. 127.50cm (LHC) Welsh Section B gelding.

We’ve had Gleam for 3 years and has sadly been outgrown. Gleam doesn’t act or look 25, he’s in great condition, never had any health issues and enjoys having a job to do and would love the opportunity to make some more children as happy as he’s made ours.

Gleam has done a bit of everything since we’ve had him including going to the gallops, beach, cross country, fun rides, show jumping and dressage. He’s always so well behaved and is the sweetest pony on the yard.

Gleam will live in or out, is barefoot and good for the vet, dentist, farrier and to clip. Vaccinations are up to date.

Gleam will happily trot round a course of cross poles on or off the lead rein. On the flat Gleam has a lovely steady, comfortable canter but does get a bit fizzy and excitable when cantering over poles and jumps. Therefore we think he’s a 1.5 pony or first ridden for a confident child. No matter how excited he gets, he always stops when asked, he’s such a genuine pony.

In his younger days Gleam was a competition pony and jumped some big tracks but since we’ve had him, he has shown he’s not interested anymore and will stop when the jumps get higher than 60cm. Although he might not want to jump big jumps anymore, he still loves to go round the smaller courses. He also loves hacking and is very good in open spaces.

This is a very sad sale as he’s very much loved so would like to stay in touch with new owner.
Tack included.

  • Palomino Welsh A Gelding
  • Top class first ridden, junior, worker & general children pony

6 year old Welsh A palomino 4 whites gelding full up to height.

Gino has been owned by us since a foal and has had a successful inhand career as a youngster including taking Sarum Champion numerous times as a 2 and 3 year old. As a 3 year old he won the Royal Welsh in a huge class. He is overstamped with the Palomino society so is eligible for those classes as well.

He is broken to ride and has the most beautiful paces. He is light in the hand and has been ridden by tiny tots to first ridden riders and adults. He is beautifully schooled and would be an asset for a first ridden prospect. He had a successful first season lead rein with my daughter as a 6 year old but she isn’t interested anymore. I believe he would make a top class first ridden pony, he will do the lead rein job but I believe his main success will be first ridden.

He’s good to do in all ways, no issues with him ever. He is still novice so needs people who know what they are doing and we will be extremely fussy who he will go to. He would make a top class first ridden, junior or workers pony as he is safe but has the spark in him to do so much more.

Gino means the world to us and we will only accept phone calls, we will not be answering text messages and sending ten thousand videos.

4 yo gelding standing a strong 11.3 likely to make up 12 hands,plenty of bone and substance to him and takes up the leg!
Extremely well bred pony.

He is by GLANERCH PIP (REVEL HEDD) x ARAD BETTY (GLENWOOD SIARL)

We brought him unbroken earlier in the year. He has done lots of long reining and groundwork and is riding nicely under saddle. Has taken everything in his stride so far and has been absolutely no problem to ride away.

He is working very nicely in walk,trot and canter and popping a small course in the arena and is very neat amd careful. Has hacked out on the road several times alone and in company.. met cars /vans and has been fab ... and also popped some little arena eventing fences a few weeks back. He is an exceptionally balanced pony with the easiest canter. He is a forward thinking pony not a kick along but not strong.Been to a little unaffiliated dressage test last week , got a placing,behaved and worked in company very sweetly then stood on the lorry alone. Also been out to a small unaffiliated showjumping day and worked with plenty of other Ponys.

He has been backed by Nanny ..but also been ridden several times by a very petite 10 yo and worked beautifully and looked a total picture (videos below) .. recently done some lead with a 7 yo girl .so easy and naturally balanced for a child. Forward and responsive but not strong.

Nice person to do , groom, wash, load, pick up feet etc. He is handled ,led and groomed by my 5 yo boy who has also walked round on the lead rein ( but is not remotely intrested otherwise he would be the sort of pony we would keep for him for the furture ) .Fantastic project for the summer.. brought on a little more would be a fabulous LR/first ridden or WHP. Sensible,kind pony but obviously just broken and riding so is not bomb proof yet and has more of the world to see! Not a made pony yet .. would like an experienced home to bring him on due to age and level of training..Ideal for older child to produce for the younger ones in a few months time or for small mum ( nanny in video is 7 stone 5ft1 ) to produce along side .. I believe produced correctly will make a fabulous family pony.

Wormed ,trimmed up to date .. ready for someone to put their stamp on.

No health issues.
