Not to be Missed! The Perfect All Rounder Pony Club Pony


Ref #: 386079
  • Fantastic All Rounder
  • Good to Do in All Ways
  • School Mistress ready to get on with her job with her next rider
£8,500 ONO
  • Dartmoor
  • Skewbald
  • Mare
  • 16 years
  • 13.2 hands
  • Fantastic All Rounder
  • Good to Do in All Ways
  • School Mistress ready to get on with her job with her next rider

With a heavy heart we are looking for a new 5* home for this awesome pony.

Mitchelcombe Banoffee Pie - Bonnie is a 13.2 Welsh Cob x Dartmoor

We’ve owned Bonnie for almost 2yrs and would absolutely not be looking for anything else if my daughter hadn’t grown out of her.

She schools well, has been to arena hires, XC and SJ and can turn her hoof to dressage, though it’s something my daughter is only just taking an interest in. She has done all PC activities and did Pony camp this summer and really showed what she’s capable of.

Bonnie has been out on hound exercises. She loves a job and loves to jump. She is well mannered on the ground and can live in or out but I would say she prefers out or a mix of the two. She can pull a face when you do her girth but she is just letting you know it’s not her favourite thing.

She hacks alone or in company, great in heavy traffic ,farm machinery etc
She’s great for the farrier, dentist, physio and happy to be clipped, can occasionally be reluctant to load but we have used a lunge line around her bum and she then loads straight away (we also give her a treat once she is on which helps).

Bonnie is up to date with everything. She’s had a new saddle while we’ve had her with regular checks and was recently fitted with a new bit and bridle. She is snaffle mouthed, can be strong at times but never dangerous. She is the perfect pony for someone that is a brave, confident rider who will push her to do what she loves, anyone who has this pony will be very lucky to have her.

This is a super sad sale so no time wasters, extra videos can be sent on request .

Price to include full tack and wardrobe

  • International wins, multiple national wins & HOYS finalist
  • Scopey, Careful and Forward thinking - fit and ready to jump top tracks next year and beyond

FEI measured 148 schoolmaster - a pony who needs little introduction the legendary Rathlee Warrior.

The kindest pony with a heart of gold, very rarely home without a red rosette and has given his current jockey the most amazing season.

Originally purchased to get her confidence back after a tricky pony causing her to fall out of love with the sport, with only half a season left until she was out of juniors Ralph quickly fixed some big confidence issues and has won and won up to 1.20 level, before the rider had very little form at 1 metre and he managed to take her from this to top track level in a matter of months!

He jumped at every major summer pony prem this year and won every time out. We owe him so much for what he’s done with his current jockey, and really want to see him give another riders much joy as he has us!

Undoubtedly a great contender for Pony Showjumper classes next year, huge stride with a heart of gold and incredibly capable of getting back to HOYS 2026 - 5* home an absolute must and potential homes will be vetted, possibility of lease options.

Super sound and correct and such a gentleman to handle at home, requires zero veterinary maintenance!

Hundreds of videos and photos available, based in Hallingbury, Herts!

  • Appaloosa
  • Mare
  • 19 years
  • 14.1 hands (LHC)
  • Flashy & Eye-catching.
  • Intelligent & Consistent.
  • Bold & Brave.

Spot the GoJo has been there and done it, jumping up to 1.10 at BS, brave and bold XC, a super fun mare with lots of character.

19 yrs young she is as fit as a pony half her age, sound, in work and ready to enjoy an all round home where she can teach a gutsy rider, who likes a forward but controllable ride, to jump.

Gojo loves her job and is always in the ribbons, she’s been a fantastic PC and NSEA pony since we’ve had her, enjoying many wins both SJ and AE and placing at NSEA Champs AE.

Would be ideal for a PC or riding club home with a teenager or small adult who wants to have fun with a top class horse on a smaller budget.

Great to hack but not a fan of busy traffic, fine if in company. Barefoot and good with the farrier, she’s straightforward to catch, load and travel. Settles happily staying away at competition. Currently lives out and enjoys that freedom. Needs sedation to clip.

Must go to an experienced home as she is a characterful, competition pony who can be opinionated and needs a capable hand to manage some vices which will be fully discussed.

Located close to Somerford Park Farm.


DO YOU HAVE A HORSE OR PONY SUITABLE FOR THE RDA?

WANTED ON LONG TERM LOAN / PURCHASE

Ref #: 249896
  • If you think your equine has what it takes, please contact one of the groups below
  • If you think your equine has what it takes, please contact one of the groups below

One of the main issues that RDA groups face is finding an Equine to suit the needs of the participants in their group.

We are regularly contacted with offers of Equines that are ‘the ideal RDA horse or pony’ when actually what is ideal for one group may not be for the next. We are trying to move away from the stereotypical view that RDA Equines are elderly and somewhat static, our horses and ponies need to be fit, healthy and athletic to cope with the lifestyle in an RDA group.

They can range from smaller, forward going ponies to weight carrying cobs and can take part in a range of disciplines from Riding to Carriage Driving, Vaulting to Show Jumping and Endurance.

If you contact an RDA Group about your Equine please be prepared to fill in an Equine Initial Interest Form which will ask you many questions about your horses’ temperament, health history, experience and lifestyle. Many groups will prefer to have an equine on trial to make sure they are suitable for the job.

For long term loans and purchases they will also be required to have a Pre-Purchase Examination.

If you think your equine has what it takes, please contact one of the groups below.

  • Genuine schoolmaster, ideal for young teenager that she can help step-up.
  • Great to hack, loves to jump and enjoys flatwork.

Stepol Northern Dancer “DANCER”, beautiful bay 14.2hh allrounder, Welsh section D mare who loves to be active. 16 years’ old and a genuine schoolmaster, she is great with children of all ages and adults alike but would thrive with a young teenager that she can help step up. She is easy to groom and tack-up with an excellent temperament, great to hack either alone or in company, is good around cars, and loves to jump up to 1m comfortably and has occasionally jumped up to 1m20 single fences. She enjoys flatwork but does not have much experience in dressage, however, would make for a beautiful dressage pony.

She is good to travel, but can sometimes be reluctant to load if she doesn’t travel regularly or isn’t familiar with box/trailer. She has been to multiple farm rides, non affiliated show jumping competitions, cross country events, arena hires and gallops and has thrived in all areas. She is not strong and has exceptionally good breaks so is only ridden in a snaffle with no flash required. She was also previously part of a Pony Club at a riding school.

For the last couple of years, Dancer has generally only been ridden for non-competitive pleasure but can easily be brought back up to a competing level.

She was bought for 11-year-old daughter and has done well with her for the 5 years we have owned her, only deciding to sell due to a change in circumstances and time commitments. Dancer is a low maintenance pony, who typically lives out from March through to the end of October with no issues. She prefers life living out and only gets brought in at night during the winter months due to requirements of the livery she is on now but would be happy to live out all year round.

She has never bucked, reared, or kicked people during our ownership, however, does experience mild crib biting after she is given treats or is in the stable for prolonged periods, no health issues have been identified by her vet.

An absolutely wonderful pony ideal for first time or experienced owners alike.

• Vaccinations and worming up to date
• Microchipped
• Good to clip (has been in winter for past 3 years)
• Good to shoe (every 6 weeks and only has front 2 on currently)

Chance
16-year-old mare, 14.2hh

Chance is a forward-going, fun, and speedy pony who knows her job and loves to work. She has brakes but can be strong, so she's not suitable for a novice rider. That said, she is an absolute sweetheart on the ground – kind, affectionate, and a real pleasure to have around the yard.

We've had some amazing times with Chance and she will be very much missed. However, at 16, we feel she now deserves a more varied, lower-level home where she can enjoy all-round activities rather than focusing solely on jumping.

She has mainly competed in BS showjumping with us and her previous owner, but also adores cross-country, arena eventing, hacking, and fun rides. She hacks alone or in company, happily goes first or last, and is completely unbothered.

Up to date with teeth, vaccinations, physio, etc.

Great with the farrier, breeze to clip, loads and travels beautifully, and will stand quietly on the lorry.

This is a very special pony, and finding the right home is our top priority – all homes will be vetted.

Much loved Zipporah. Well bred TB x Cob, bay mare. 14hh. 18 years . Fit and well.

Homebred from West Kington Stud where she spent 16 years before coming to us. Professionally produced and given a start to numerous children at pony club, local competitions etc. Been with us for just over 2 years, Zippy has taught my daughter how to ride a forward going pony with a powerful jump. My daughter now wants to compete at a higher level and is asking more of Zippy than she wants to do.

Zippy is comfortable popping round 60 competitively and placed first last weekend in local competition, a fast, bold round. Enjoyed the chase me charlie at Badminton Show in August, going out above 90. Does jump well in training clinics (70/80) and is very clever with her footwork.

Done all things pony club, qualified for regionals in pc dressage this year and could improve further with a rider focussed on this discipline, believe she could do well.

Fit and well. Loves fuss and attention, very sweet nature.

Good to hack, shoe, box, clip, no vices

Not a first pony and not suitable for hunting, as gets extremely excited with anything hunting related.

Seeking kind and knowledgeable long term home, loves fuss and attention. This is the most important factor, and we will wish to visit new home. Love Zippy lots, she is too good to stand in the field, and we want to find her the right new rider/ family to form a great partnership for all to enjoy.

Lots of photos and videos to share. Very recent photos below.

Price includes some tack and rugs.

Tentatively thinking about letting our Monkey go to pastures new.

He has been an amazing pony for us for the past five years, and is very well known on the local circuit.

Isla and him had the most amazing bond and they won so many classes showjumping and WHP , he is so scopey for a small pony, and we have not found any filler in the country that he has even looked at , let alone spooked at.

He is brave, bold and an off the leg ride, whilst not being strong, he is however not called Monkey for no reason and will not tolerate wet wipes, bad riding or wimps, he loves a brave competitive jockey that will throw him round the jump off turns and dare him off any line, (and Isla did jump him off some very questionable lines!) he is also fab cross country and will jump anything.
Currently out hunting every week and loving it.

Monkey does have his quirks , which we love him for and he wouldn’t be monkey without them, but when you get in the ring , he will give you 110% and more every time, I have so many videos and pictures,

We wanted to keep him for my son who loves riding him, and has also competed him , but realistically he hasn’t got the time for him, the motocross just takes up too much of his time and Monkey has so much to give another jockey.

Jemima – 13.2hh New Forest Mare 

After two wonderful years Jemima has very sadly been outgrown (we had hoped it would be longer but alas my son is growing like a weed!) We are now seeking a five-star, loving home for this very special pony, where she will want for nothing.

Jemima is a 16-year-old (2009), 13.2hh dark bay registered New Forest mare. She would make a fantastic second pony for a confident rider who enjoys a forward, fun ride.

She’s a genuine all-rounder with heaps of experience at pony club, riding club, camps, stay-away shows, and family holidays. We haven’t done much dressage – it’s not really my sons thing, but plenty of SJ, XC, arena eventing, barrel racing, and a little mounted games etc. She has also hunted in a previous home. Jemima is happiest popping around courses of 60–75cm with great success. She will jump bigger at home but may struggle with the spreads on 80cm+ in competition (venue dependant). She doesn’t need to be ridden every day and is the same whether ridden once or 5 times a week. That said, Jemima loves an active varied life and would be wasted in a field being a happy hacker at weekends.

On the ground, Jemima is an absolute sweetheart – easy to catch, groom, tack up, lead, shoe (happy barefoot or shod), and she travels well in both lorry (3.5t & 7.5t) and trailer. She is equally happy to live out or be stabled. Vaccinations and dental are up to date (due Jan 2026). She requires sedation for clipping and may occasionally pull a face when her girth is tightened – but she has no vices, she does not rear, kick, bite or buck.

She is safe in open spaces – although keen and forward. If your child is frightened of speed she's not the pony for you! Jemima is excellent to hack both alone and in company, and is used to heavy village traffic including buses, lorries, tractors and more, making her a truly reliable partner.

She comes with her saddle, 2 bridles, and an extensive collection of rugs & boots.

For sale
Oscar - grey gelding -15 years old - 14.3/15hh

Oscar is a much loved, gorgeous boy, who is for sale because as I’m going travelling. I’ve owned him for around eight years so this decision hasn’t been easy. So need to find him a new best friend and a very loving home.
Would suit a confident/experienced young Rider who wants to have fun with low level riding club activities like pony club. Would also suit a mother/daughter share

Oscar loves hacking and going on adventures. Not phased by traffic or livestock.
Hasn’t hacked alone in a while, can be a little nappy alone but with someone who is confident enough to push him forward, should be good as gold.

He works very nicely in the school, has shown some beautiful dressage movements but wouldn’t say its his favourite thing to do. He gets quite lazy and can also test his rider and see what he can get away with, by chucking in a buck in there. Once shown he can’t get away with this then never puts a hoof out of place.

Oscar loves jumping, i’ve jumped here and there whilst owning him but I believe he did a bit with his previous owner. Has also done cross-country, hunted and showjumping courses with his previous owner.
He’s gone to a few show jump clinics with his current rider height around 60 to 70 cm, but he could go higher as he has previously.

Oscar is amazing to shoe clip and handle in every way on the ground and off.
Does get slightly nervous travelling and loading due to a scare in a trailer a few years back and hasn’t done a lot of travelling since. Although the last few times he’s been very good, quite nervous in the trailer and sweaty when arrives. Can’t imagine this would be a big issue if worked on as he was as good as gold travelling before.

He is one in 1 million horse. I’ve had such a fun time with him, so only want to send him to an honest and loving home. No time wasters please.

Based in Stroud

Thistledown Arctic Monkey is a truly exceptional children’s pony. A 14-year-old Welsh Section B gelding, Monkey has made so many dreams come true, but it is now sadly time for him to go and teach his next young rider the ropes.

He is straightforward, kind, beautifully mannered and will give even the smallest, most nervous jockey total confidence — even in the busiest of rings.

Many people will remember Monkey at HOYS 2023, when my daughter decided to stand on him and salute because she didn’t want the judge getting bored seeing the same show as everyone else! Monkey stood like a rock, as he always does — the perfect example of the saintly temperament he is known for.

He has qualified for HOYS and RI eight times, competing in the Lead Rein, First Ridden and 122 SHP classes. Monkey has too many wins to mention them all, but his record includes:
• 8 × HOYS & RI Qualifications
• Winner at Windsor
• Qualified HOYS/RI as a First Ridden on his first attempts (only his 1st and 4th show with us)
• 2 × Royal Welsh 122 SHP Winner
• WPCS Performance Show Mini WHP Champion
• Won several Dressage classes
• Attended Pony Camp
• Enjoys Showjumping
• HOYS Consistency Points Winner
• Placed in all classes at BSPS / NPS Champs
• Jumps quietly and safely around Cradle Stakes tracks

Monkey is the pony every family wishes they had. He hacks for hours alone or in company, attends Pony Club and loves every minute. He’s always the first to greet you at the gate, and he is easy whether picked up, put down, ridden daily or left a few weeks — he simply fits into family life and makes everything easy and fun.

He can be fully cared for by children without a second thought. He will stand for hours to be groomed, bathed, tacked up, and is even clipped by my 13-year-old daughter. He’s frequently involved in TikToks, makeovers, brushing sessions and being turned into a unicorn! Even the non-horsey grandparents can lead him in and out, hold him at shows and take him for a little walk while the girls ride.

He is honestly the happiest, friendliest, most people-loving pony we’ve ever known — you cannot help but fall in love instantly.

Monkey has no vices — he does not nap, rear, buck, etc. However, he would eat himself to death if given half a chance! He has had laminitis in the past so he needs a family who can help him make good life choices. This is totally manageable with a simple routine (basically he’s not allowed on the big field (10acres) when the grass is at its sweetest but we are very happy to discuss this.

Monkey is truly a family favourite and this is a heartbreaking sale. He is ready to go and make another child’s dreams come true, just as he has done for ours.

5* knowledgeable home essential.

Available after London.

Diese Star/ Olaf - 12.2hh (128cm) 22 years young. The time has come to find Olaf a new home as our daughter is growing out of him fast.

Olaf has taken our daughter to Hickstead, qualifying for both the 85cm arena cross and 70cm show jumping in the NSEA championships and they came 2nd individually in the 70cm show jumping finals! Olaf also enjoys eventing at they managed 5th place at the pony club regional championships at Kelsall Hill jumping a double clear. Last season he was jumping 90cm courses easily and won at some local competitions , we have kept the height down this season as our daughter is quite big on him now but he would happily go back to jumping 90cm with a smaller jockey. Before he came to us he quite a successful BS career, his BS number is 387142 if you want to look at his results.

Olaf would suit a young competent rider wanting to go down the BS route or be very competitive at pony club/local events.. He is very fast in the jump offs and generally careful too. He's very brave and never refuses a jump, not at all spooky just gets on with the job. Whilst at the competitions he behaves impeccably.

Absolutely bullet proof in all traffic including tractors, trucks etc. Not bothered by cows, sheep or donkeys!

Olaf is quite bold but as long as the jockey is up for it he with take them around a course beautifully. Never had a lame/sick day in the whole time we've had him. Amazing feet.

He is up to date with vaccinations, teeth and back have been done in the last month.

Will come with fitted saddle, bridle and some rugs.

Home is very important for this special pony.

We've got hundreds of pictures and videos which i can share.
