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.

• Great for tiny tots to learn their up downs
• Floaty paces
• The perfect rocking horse canter

Frankie is a wonderful child’s pony. He has three lovely steady paces perfect to learn ups and downs but doesn’t need kicking to keep him going.

He has the most gorgeous rocking horse canter that you can jog along beside on the lead rein. He will pop over a jump beautifully, never over jumps.

In his previous home he did many different lead rein activities including dressage, jumping, cross country, shows, beach rides and pony club.

He goes through water, is bombproof in traffic and hacks out alone. He will stand for hours for round the world, be dressed up, ridden bareback from the field and to be be groomed.

Frankie has been used as a first ridden previously but has picked up some bad habits and therefore the reason we feel he is best suited to a lead rein home (please note: he is being sold as a lead rein pony and will not be sold as off lead / first ridden).

Full history known and references available from all previous 3 owners. Thousands of photos and videos. Frankie is much loved and will only go to the best of homes.

Would prefer people to call or can what’s app for videos if interested.

Update: Frankie has been in a loan home with a friend for the winter, mainly as a companion / LR for a tiny tot which he does well at - because of this he is sold in his winter wollies!

• Exceptional temperment
• Proven and untapped potential

Ruby is a truly special 9 year old Welsh Section A mare. She is an absolute dream to have on the yard and has the sweetest, kindest temperament. She will happily stand for hours to be groomed and fussed over. Ruby can be a little nervous with new people initially, so does need a kind, sympathetic owner while she builds trust - but once she knows you, she gives you her whole heart.

- Brilliant to Lunge and Long Rein
- Hacks out confidently
- Foot perfect on the lead rein, will trot a beautiful figure of 8 all day long
- Attended numerous clinics and shows, always in the ribbons
- Has shown huge potential jumping with a larger jockey however not something we have tapped into.

Ruby has all the attributes to be something very special with the right jocket behind her. She has quality, prescent and ability to be a very exciting prospect for somebody.

She is perfect for the farrier, to clip, loads well and is truly a pleasure in and out of the stable.

Please note: Ruby is NOT a FYFR and requires a confident, competent rider off the lead. She is NOT suitable for a rider just coming off the lead and needs someone who can give her confidence through the saddle.

A heartbreaking sale as she is absolutely adored but with 2 other ponies demanding our time, she is simply not getting the attention or opportunities she deserves.

Ruby is a top-clas, eye-catching pony with a beautiful nature and huge potential. A VERY special home is sought for this very special girl. Serious enquiries only please.

Sensible offers considered for the right home.

Pete is a lovely quiet pony who has sadly been outgrown by my 10 year old daughter.

Pete has been turned away for the winter and is now in gradual light work (hacking).

We have owned him for around 18 months and he has never done anything silly and even now after not being ridden for a few months has stayed the same laid back pony as before. He has given my daughter so much confidence to now go onto a bigger and more forward pony.

Last year with Pete we done lots of hacking, local showing and pony club rallies. He’s not a pony that needs to be ridden every day and never sharp or fizzy.

He is good for vet, farrier and is up to date with worm treatment, vaccinations and farrier (barefoot).

I am wanting the best loving home for Pete to continue his education further.

Pete does have a vet history that I will be completing honest about and this will reflect price, this does not effect his ability to be ridden

• True to type section A
• Excellent breeding and a top class lead rein and first ridden prospect
• Lovely temperament, easily handled by a 3 year old child

Percy is 7 years old and by Glyncoch King Cai out of Plasderw Picabo. We bought him from the Friarly Stud as a 3 year old and had been in the same home since.

Percy has a lovely temperament and has easily been handled and led by a 3 year old child. He has been ridden both on and off lead rein, and is a straightforward ride. He is currently very low mileage due to lack of rider, but would excel as a lead rein show pony. He has been correctly started and is easy to long line and work from the ground.

He would also make a good ridden prospect for an older child. He is full brother to Friarly Pablo who has many wins in showing and dressage.

Percy is good to catch and handle, loads and travels easily and is good for the farrier. He is fully up to date with vaccinations and dentals.

Price includes a fitted saddle.
Sad sale due to lack of rider.

• Excels in show jumping, working hunter, cross country and arena eventing. Careful and forgiving.
• Ridden and handled entirely by children. Fast and forward going but safe and willing
• Travels and hacks alone and with company. Can be left on/beside the box at shows without fuss.

Registered Welsh A mare. Princess is a pony for a competitive child. She's fast and fun and loves to jump. Always in a snaffle and will take a miss to help her rider out. Forward thinking and balanced.

She would be great as a lead rein pony but too forward for a true first ridden. Is well versed in all pony club activities, pony club regionals and agriculture shows.

Never had sweet itch, laminitis etc . Brilliant to clip, farrier, dentist etc. up to date with vaccinations, worming, dentist, farrier etc.

Would make an amazing BS pony.

Absolutely loves her job and stands all day to be fussed and pampered. Very sadly outgrown.
