  • Pony to define a childhood.
  • Honest and keen to a jump
  • Versatile and fun
How do you go about introducing the most perfect pony in the world? This pony has defined my daughter’s childhood, given her confidence, allowed her to start her BE journey competitively and safely.

Bruno (Lackaghmore Vandango) is a complete schoolmaster who has been an integral part of our family and introduced my daughter to eventing, he has forged the most brilliant partnership with her and given her a superb foundation. She is not the perfect rider, she misses him sometimes, she is not the strongest as her health is not tip top but what they have achieved together has surpassed our expectations 10fold. He has shown her the ropes and put a smile on her face so many times but sadly now he is looking for his next person as my daughter appears to be growing like a weed and needs something bigger.

We purchased Bruno from Ireland as a Christmas present 2 years ago. At that point he had just finished his season as winner of the Eventing Ireland, Northern region 90cm league.

At home, Bruno is a complete poppet, my daughter does everything with him which is lovely, he is easy to handle and even my toddler can pootle around the school on him but at a competition he knows his job so he is definitely not for a novice rider, he is never naughty or unmanageable just competitive and keen. Has never been seen to buck, rear, bolt. Great to load/unload/stud/bath/farrier/dentist, we prefer to sedate to clip the back of his back legs as he is tickly and sometimes fidgets but it can be done without. Stands on the box all day and travels very well. Not the sick or sorry type, just ears pricked and ready to take on whatever we throw at him.

A great record and I can go through every result with potential owners, he has done BE 90, pony club rallies, pony club camp, spring festival and pony club champs 2 years running-he competed in the dressage and eventing this year and made the course look like a schooling round, he was incredible and finished his season with a brilliant 100 Cotswold cup round at Pontispool. He has done beach rides, hacks out alone and in company, was the lead pony for the South Molton Carnival…you name it, he has done it.

He would also be an incredible tet pony as he just loves the cross country and is so quick across the country.

AND MUCH MORE

Pickle is a top class young mare with an even brighter future ahead of her. We have been lucky to have her since she was a 5 yo and she has brought my son from pony club to 110P and 2 star in her first season eventing

She has an exceptional ability in all 3 phases. She has 3 lovely paces and is always scoring 20s or low 30s dressage. She excels in cross country having the ability to comfortably make the time and jump clear everytime. She has posted many clear showjumping rounds at 110 eventing and SJI.

Pickle was the pathfinder at her first ever Eventing Europeans this year in Le Mans and she posted 1 of only 9 clears inside the time on a challenging course. This year she was also the youngest pony in the competition.

She will be a really competitive pony for teams and medals in the future with the right match. She has a lovely temperament and would suit any rider.

This is an extremely sad sale due to my son outgrowing ponies but we are really looking forward to seeing her give her new family unforgettable experiences too.

She is good clip, travel, shoe etc.

Sadly, after four amazing years our gorgeous Stilton is now for sale.

Stilton is a mother’s dream in all ways and will be any child’s best friend. Over the past four years he has taken me up the levels from unaffiliated 80, to Novice, Pony Trials, and Pony 2*L at Belsay. He’s hugely kind and genuine and would happily step down to bring another jockey through the levels, whilst also having great potential for European teams in the future with the right rider. Due to being extremely forgiving and kind he is a great confidence giving pony.

This year he’s stepped up to do his first two PTN’s going clear XC in both, he’s a very honest pony who will always do his best to help you out and absolutely loves his XC. He has 3 lovely balanced paces with an uphill way of going. He’s calm and consistent on the flat and is now established with all the novice movements. He’s capable of very good scores and we believe it won’t be long before he is frequently in the top few after dressage. Show jumping has been his weaker phase, however training has improved these results as reflected in his recent 2* runs. He’s got a careful, scopey jump with the ability for many clear rounds, but whatever happens he will always keep jumping for you.

As well as being a brilliant competition pony, he is also incredibly easy to do in all ways and has a gorgeous personality. He’s great to hack and can even be ridden bareback on the beach! He’s been a true pony of a lifetime for us, and we will miss him enormously, so he will only be going to a 5* home where he will be completely adored.

We would love to see him go to a talented young jockey where he can reach his full potential, as we believe in the right hands, he could be a European pony for a lucky jockey. We just wish we had another year in ponies to give this a proper shot.

Equally Stilton has been clear XC around Bishop Burton PT105 ( jumping the same course as the 100 international youth champs), so he could be a great bishop burton teams pony for a child.
He’s a tough and sound pony who is now ready to excel in his next home.

Very sad sale, so genuine enquiries only please

No loans or leases

Prior to us buying him, Paddy was carefully produced in Ireland. Paddy won the equijump pony producers class as a six year old in Ireland as well as placing at Dublin int. Horse show. He also hunted, and competed and placed in top working hunter and Connemara classes which we are regularly told he would excel at now too. We brought him over and have just kept stepping up the ladder and believe he is still capable of so much more.

He proceeded to establish his event career here to a 2* top class event pony with ease.

This legendary pony absolutely blows us away each time we take him out and attracts attention everywhere he goes. Taking his rider from 80/90 eventing on a schoolmaster up to Novice and 2* in just short of two seasons.

He is an out and out jumper, he absolutely NEVER says no and is extremely careful, very quick and clever on his feet, will jump off any stride and always get his rider out of trouble and never looks at anything put in front of him. He trains 1.20 plus at home with plenty of scope for more and would easily excel at BS. We believe he has all the scope, bravery and ability to step up to intermediate.

He is a cross country machine, extremely bold, brave and can make the time well for a pony, will take a flyer and can be set up for a combination.

Due to rider age and being out of pony classes he has competed against top end horses and still holds his own. Any mistakes made are due to rider error and inexperience and have an explanation we are happy to explain. However, these do not reflect the ponies ability. He will always bring his rider home safe and with a smile on their face.

Dressage is his riders weak point and it has unfortunately shown in some marks however it has been improving each time and he has all the ability and knows all the tricky movements. Judges comments often state how there are many more marks to come. Recently having training with a top class dressage instructor who has stated there is all the ability for mid 20 scores.

He is great to load, travel, dentist, farrier, clip and traffic proof. Never bucks, spins, rears or bolts.

Paddy is a true competition pony and therefore not a novice ride.

We believe we have only scratched the surface of what paddy can do, no doubt he will take his next lucky rider to pony europeans, youth championships and pony trials. He could go round 100/105/Novice/PT now and be very competitive. Unfortunately i didn’t get time with him to achieve these milestones, but there is no doubt he is capable with his next jockey.

Melody has brought our family on the most amazing journey and it's now time for her to do the same for her next family.

She is very adaptable and has taken three different riders to the highest level.

We have her since she was 6YO and my eldest daughter was selected for the Europeans in 2022, where they subsequently won team gold in Poland. Then my next daughter took the ride on her and we have been to Blair castle in Scotland, Oudkarspel in Holland, European Championships in Westerstede, Germany taking team Silver and placing 7th Individually. My niece had the ride on her this year and posted many wins and placings and was selected as a reserve for the 2025 Europeans.

She is very giving pony and is a very solid, straight forward ride. She's has the heart of a lion out cross country and always looking to the next fence, loads of clear Showjumping rounds at the highest level including the crucial clear SJ round for Ireland that secured the team silver medal, dressage in the low 30's (with some sub 30's) internationally. Loads of videos and photos on request.

Very sad sale of a much treasured pony so please no time wasters, knowledgable and kind home hugely important.

14.1hh (life time certificate), Dun ,beautifully bred Connemara mare,15 years old. FEI passport

Sandy is truly one in a million! Not only is she an outstanding competition pony having been shortlisted for Europeans a few years ago as an FEI event pony, she is also the kindest, sweetest girl who is fantastic to hack, great in traffic and just super good fun to have around!

She adores people and is excellent to do in all respects.

She is an amazing mover and has 3 very good gaits, Rhythmical trot and up off the floor canter and a ground covering walk, she's easy in the contact and moves off the leg beautifully and is very established in the shoulder in and leg yield. I'm convinced she would make a top dressage pony capable of making teams in the future. She's very secure in all the elementary movements and is working towards medium.

Obviously with her past she is a fantastic cross country and jumping machine! However her owners would really love her to have a quieter life now so would ideally like her go to a younger child wanting to get going in eventing/ PC or an ambitious dressage rider to develop this side of her talent.

She would of course also suit a small adult in so many different disciplines including showing.

I can't stress how wonderful this pony is I only wish something as good as this came along when my daughter was young!

She is priced very competitively for the quality of pony she is.

Private sale on behalf of a client who is based with me.

The safest and soundest eventing pony that dreams are made of. I have owned Turpin since the day he was born and he is the most mannerly, sweetest and pleasant pony to deal with on a day to day basis. He is the only foal out of 2* eventing pony Newgrove Lass and has shown every bit of promise to be as good as if not better than her! Turpin has never had a days lameness and is such a tough, sound pony, he only actually wears shoes for the studs! He is 100% to hack alone or in company, clip, shoe and any of the day to day bits, he really is just an innately lovely little man.

Dressage
Turpin is established at BE100 level and although this would be considered his weakest phase, he is still able to achieve good results. He needs a rider with good feel and mature understanding. He has the canter of a rocking horse and all his work is correct.

Showjumping
Turpin has a very consistent record up to 1 metre with 3 separate young riders, his records on SJI, Eventing Ireland and British Eventing speak for themselves. He has plenty of ability and has just stepped up to 1.10 very comfortably. He has shown he is able to jump out of bottomless ground and also good going!

Cross Country
Turpin is a very mannerly cross country pony, jumping both phases in a simple snaffle. He will suit someone who is able to kick on and loves the rush. He is able to show a lesser experienced rider round 80 & 90 with no bother whilst they learn the ropes of the sport. He never becomes overwhelmed by technicalities and is already confidently schooling at BE Novice/ EI110 level. Once again, ground is no factor to Turpin and will jump as well on good ground as he does a bog.

Hunting
Turpin is the hunting pony of dreams. There is no country he cannot cross and no ground he can’t cover. He has hunted with Rockwood Harriers, Readyfield Bloodhounds, East Antrim Harriers, East Clare Harriers and North Tipperary Foxhounds. He has also completed the Ballycommon ride twice with 2 separate riders.

Extra Features
Turpin has been a vital member of the East Antrim pony club teams in 2023/2024 being in a winning PC90 eventing team and also a winning PC100 show jumping team.
Also, to add to Turpin’s versatility, Turpin is also broken to drive! He doesn’t even wear blinkers, he’s a very happy pony trotting down the lanes taking in the sights!

One of the best novice ponies in the UK. Hilgarth The Last Samurai aka Troy - Outstanding 127 5years gelding.

Super genuine with the most wonderful, willing and trainable brain. Currently being professionaly produced by a petite 9yo girl.

Produced with his future in mind , with no doubt he is a top track pony in the making.

Unlimited amount of scope and power and a canter to die for.

Amazing results to date, been to a handful of BS shows, double clear with wins every time out ,some with winnings.

Jumped at the POP festival with =1st in his qualifier with a smart clear round then a top 12 double clear placing in his first very speedy grand prix in very good company.
6th performance and style last day.

He is already proving that he is capable of being a top class eventing pony ,
His dressage is ,rythmical and powerful self contained in a light uphill frame.
He finished 4th individually in the pony club dressage champs.
First time out ODE qualified for the PC champs individually and in a team finishing on his dressage score with a smart double clear standing him 7th individually.
His 2nd ever ODE was the PC champs at Offchurch where he finished 2nd place again on his dressage score.
I'm pretty sure he was the youngest and smallest pony in the whole competition but behaved impeccably and made light work of the very tough xc course that was seeing more retire than finish .
He has an impressive CV for such a young pony .

Troy works and rides lovely in the school, moves evenly over his back and is always in a snaffle.

In my opinion he would rock the hunter jumper/American equation world. He is ultra correct as a model, with movement, rideability ,natural boldness and beautiful head he could definitely be a HOYS worker candidate.

Has been hunted by novice children on and off the lead rein with the Quorn and Ready field at busy boxing day and Christmas meets.

purchased as an early 3yo so know all his history.

Never sick or sorry and has the most wonderful and kind personality.

Hilgarth ponies jump and move, here's your chance to buy a future superstar.

There isn't another one on the market like him.

He really is an absolute gem and it is a very sad sale.

Open to any vet inspection.

Endless pictures, videos, and references available.

Based east mids UK.
