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.

Cadlanvalley VIP - One in a Million 122cm WHP Gelding

Welsh Section B | 12hh | 4 Years with Current Family | South West Scotland

This is an incredibly hard sale of our much-loved Cadlanvalley VIP (Vinnie). We’ve owned him for four wonderful years and he’s truly part of the family. A once-in-a-lifetime pony who jumps for joy and has the heart of a lion.

So many wins to mention but standout career Highlights:

• Qualified RIHS & HOYS 2023 & 2024 – 2025 122cm M&M Working Hunter Pony
• NPS Spring Championship M&M WH Champion
• Regional PC Eventing 70cm Champion – Winning all three phases (dressage, showjumping, cross-country)

Vinnie absolutely lives to jump – brave, scopey, and bold with a flawless technique. While we’ve focused on showing, he has all the quality and ability to excel in British Showjumping. He’s never spooky, takes everything in his stride, and simply loves his job.

Personality:

Vinnie is the sweetest pony in the yard. Kind, gentle, and a total joy to handle. He has no vices, no quirks, and is always a pleasure to be around. He truly doesn’t have a bad bone in his body.

Important to Note:

Vinnie is not a first pony and not a novice ride. He is a talented, competition pony who thrives with a competent and confident jockey. In the right hands, he is a rossette machine and will take the right child to the very top.

Location & Viewings:

Based in South West Scotland.
We’re happy to meet at Carlisle or hire Greenlands Equestrian (just off the M6) to make viewing easier.

No timewasters, please. This is a genuine and emotional sale – Vinnie deserves a special home with an ambitious young rider who will love him as much as we do.

Stoak Dream Maker (Dream).

Reduced to reflect the current market and to see him in a loving home.

Extremely sad sale of our much-loved pony. We have owned Dream for 2 years and he is the kindest, easiest pony to have around. Unfortunately, the time has come to find him a new home as my daughter has now outgrown him.

Dream would excel as a junior BS pony/133cm Nursery Stakes as his passion is jumping. He has a great technique over a fence and gets his rider out of trouble jumping off any stride. He is talented, athletic and brave, doesn't look at fillers etc and never stops. He is forward thinking and just loves his work.

We have competed him unaffiliated SJ and he is very quick and careful. He has done a stay-away at BSPS Champs and was impeccably behaved. He jumped both nursery stakes classes clear and was placed well in good company. Both these tracks were big technical courses. He has also taken reserve champion WHP at Munstead, came 1st in the training stakes SE M&M show, 3rd at Sunshine Tour WHP last year and was 5th out of a huge class of over 60 at Sunshine Tour this year in SJ.

He will safely take a child round a course of jumps, but he is a keen competition pony and can get strong so would suit a confident child who is looking for their second/third pony. No novices please. He has 3 lovely paces however; his canter needs strengthening. He can occasionally become a little unbalanced and rush. With continued schooling I have no doubt this will improve.

He has also been arena eventing, PC rallies, clinics and the gallops; he is very fast so would be amazing at pony racing! He did PC camp in August where he was very well behaved and gave my daughter lots of fun with bareback challenges, SJ, XC and musical rides.

Hacks alone or in company and brilliant in traffic. Will hack past sheep and cows.

Excellent to clip, load, catch and good for farrier. Needs sedation for dentist. Turns out alone or with others.

Up to date with vaccines, dentist and regularly sees physio and osteo.

His tack is available separately (Fiona Cork made to measure GP saddle and Vortex bridle).

5* home is absolute priority for this special pony.

Please contact me for more videos/photos/questions. No time wasters please, this is a heartbreaking sale.

Crimond Nathaniel - 11.3hh, Welsh Section A, 8 years old, gelding

Nemo is successfully campaigning the hoys open 122 whp, missing his ticket by 3 marks at Malvern and has had plenty of clears and placings throughout the year on his first open season. He also finished the season campaigning the junior classes being clear every time having some fab placings.

Champion novice WHP at Cheshire 2024

This pony has an immense amount of talent over a fence and very rarely has a pole. He is extremely careful and due to this I haven’t rushed him.

Nemo has also been out to XC schooling and some unaffiliated show jumping proving brave and bold. Loves a water splash!
Has hunted twice and has shown keen, leading even when horses have stopped in front of him…

He is a forward going pony that loves his job, will suit a keen confident small jockey! id absolutely love him to stay on the circuit but more than happy for him to go and have fun doing abit of everything.

Very easy to handle on the ground and loves a cuddle… only vice is he needs sedating to clip his ears.
Up to date with everything.

No blemishes or injuries, Has not been rushed.

Please ring for information, I will be extremely picky to where he goes. 07501596921

More than happy to keep him here on production for the 122s next year if wanted to run against a junior jockey.
