Homebred four-year-old 147cm by Glencarrig Tempest (full brother to Glencarrig Dolphin who represented GB at the European Eventing championships in 2022).

Salty was professionally broken last winter before being left to mature and grow. He has spent the summer mostly hacking and getting used to open spaces/traffic either on his own or in company.

He is athletic and uphill with a fabulous kind temperament and trainable attitude. He will make the perfect partner for a competent teenager/small adult. Salty is charming to be around and this is a sad sale of a homebred pony who deserves a great home.

N/N for HWSD. Up to date with vaccinations.

Genuine enquiries only please. Pics and vids on request.

Fantastic to hack, moves and schooled beautifully, very polite to a fence and quick against the clock.

GLENCARRIG BENTLEY 152.3 cm AHC

Absolute top class competition pony , owned since a foal , by Bunowen Paddy ( Silver shadow ) out of a Mare by Glencarrig Prince .

Bentley has been a prolific winner achieving huge success mainly being campaigned as a plaited novice 153 WHP and definitely has the potential to be a future HOYS winner . Also un tapped potential as a BE event pony / schools competition/ top class PC prospect , he has fabulous conformation regularly scoring the highest show / conf mark , paired with his way of going / jump mark .

Bentley has stepped up to open 153 classes this season , but is still eligible for novice classes 2027 which I think he’d benefit from to cement a new partnership as he is still only 5 yrs old .

Bentley has the kindest temperament and is the most genuine lovely boy who will give you his all in everything he does , great to handle on the ground in the stable and is safe enough for a oldie like me to hack out ! No vices , loads / travels / clip / shoe , fully vaccinated.

Has won and been champion dozens of times , qualified for RIHS and LIHS this season , brilliant in evening performances, and buzzy atmospheres , with no ear plugs or calmers he’s the ultimate gentleman .

Bentley will have an incredibly bright future in the right home and this is of utmost importance to me and I believe he will excel in whatever he does , loves competing and is always good staying away at shows .

I am seeking a competitive teenager who will continue his success and to have fun with , Bentley is a very special boy , much admired wherever we go and the home is of utmost importance to me .

Warleigh Fantastic Light (Scotty) is looking for the perfect loan home. He has been a pony of a lifetime for Evie. Having been hugely successful as a 133 show hunter pony, including being reserve supreme hunter pony at hoys and winning countless championships and supremes, he has now learnt to jump, which he loves. We want to see him go on as a working hunter and pony club pony. 

He is not yet the finished article, but Evie has put in a lot of work over the last year and he has made loads of progress. His ideal jockey would be a confident and experienced jump jockey with one or 2 years left in nursery. We think he will go on to jump the open 133 tracks with time. He is not suitable for a novice or nervous child.

Scotty also loves hacking and was placed in the top 10 of the pony club novice dressage national finals this summer. Ideally he would stay near to us in Surrey but the right home is the most important thing.

Redlays Theseus – Cradle stakes, junior 122cm and SHP

2013 Welsh Section B gelding 13 years old

This is a heartbreaking sale of our beautiful Theo as my daughter won’t stop growing after 3 wonderful years together. I was hoping my son would take over the reins but he would like to focus more on show jumping, so we are looking for a 128cm pony.

Theo has been the pony that has first introduced my daughter to the affiliated circuit. Although he has had a very successful career as a SHP and we have thoroughly enjoyed these classes with him, we have concentrated the last 2 seasons on teaching him to jump and starting his journey as a working hunter pony! This is something he loves to do and we would like him to continue with this with his next jockey! He is a fantastic Cradle and Junior 122cm workers pony and his best is still yet to come in these classes

At home, Theo is a kind, affectionate pony who enjoys attention. He has been ridden by both my children since they were 7 and 8 years old. He is a pony who knows his job and enjoys his work.

Show record

* HOYS winner as a shp 2021 and 2023

* RIHS winner x 2

2024 –

* Blue Riband winner

* 3rd – RIHS

* 8th – HOYS

* 2nd – London International Performance Pony

2025

* 7th – RIHS 122cm SHP

* Qualified first time out for London International on flat and workers

* 10th – London International Cradle

* 7th – London International Performance Pony

2026

* Qualified first time out for the RIHS Cradle class

Unfortunately we have been unable to run him in the London cradle class this year due to a connection with this years judge

Theo has also jumped clear and achieved good placings in the handful of m&m Junior 122cm HOYS qualifiers we have contested over the last couple of seasons. He is still a fresh face in these classes as we have always ran another pony in this class so he has not been over campaigned. I do feel he has another big win in him yet especially in the new RI cradle class!

Theo absolutely thrives off jumping and loves his job, he is brave and so willing and has been a pleasure to have over the last 3 years!

He is good to bath, clip, catch, load and with the farrier.

Please no time wasters or photo collectors.

  • Actively looking for the best Pony Club ponies
  • Some fabulous knowledgeable homes waiting
  • No fees for sellers

I have motivated clients looking for genuine, kind, quality and proven ponies to take part in all Pony Club activities.

The ponies I would love to hear about are those not needing to be advertised to secure a new home. There is no harm in finding out whether I know of a better home and match. Perhaps you worry about your child finding it upsetting seeing their old pony regularly at rallies etc - then selling out of area could be a better solution.

These are motivated buyers receiving guidance as to what will likely suit their child - not the timewasters regularly reported. In most cases homes are also knowledgeable: simply lacking in time to conduct a search themselves. Most will also wait for the right pony so if you are not ready to sell yet - that is not an issue.

There are some decent budgets available relative to age and medical conditions etc.

All leads will be handled with discretion. Please feel free to give me a call, drop me a WhatsApp or check out my Instagram page @theponysearchagent

•By Jizan Awel El Safar (RHR Awel El Safar/ Zara Alarabi by So-Black Alarabi)

•Ex Carrwood Kittiwake (Carrwood Orpheus/ Lemonshill Alarch by Cottrell Artiste)

He is absolutely beautiful, so correct with 3 super paces. Would make an excellent and class PBA or WHP show pony, could also suit dressage, jumping, Le Trec, pony club or a versatile all-rounder. He's such a fun pony ready to be a superstar.

He is sweet natured and easy going, enjoys being groomed, good to bath and tie up. He is going sweetly undersaddle. He schools in all 3 paces, takes a contact, jumps small fences, and safely schools in open space. 

He hacks alone or in company and has seen all sorts of traffic. 

He is young and still a bit green, so needs a home where he can continue be correctly produced, but would suit an experienced young rider or family share.

He has travelled, up to date with worming, teeth, and farrier. Been ridden in English and Western tack.

Based in Devon, near Honiton. Whatsapp messages best.

  • beautiful both inside and out
  • Talented dressage pony
  • Loves to hack

Ruby has been a great pony for us and is only for sale as moving onto horses.

Fantastic dressage pony for someone looking to move up the levels alongside her. We've competed her unaffiliated and she never comes home without a rosette. She has previously been BD registered although this is something she has not pursued with us.

She loves to hack, not spooky and is happy to go alone.

She is a talented jumper, but it's not her preference and she can get strong when doing this so we think she would be best suited to someone looking for a talented, loving pony to enjoy in the white boards.

We adore her, and will be devastated to see her go but with exams approaching unfortunately it is not realistic to keep 2. Homes will be vetted, she will not go to just anyone. Finding Ruby the right home is more important than anything so price could be negotiated to the right home.

She is a forward going mare who enjoys her job, so experienced riders only please.

She has some medical history that is being fully disclosed in order to find her the best home.

Please whatsapp for more information / videos :)

Del needs little introduction having won both RIHS and HOYS M&M WHP. He has untapped potential in the plaited and nursery stakes classes too as we have never had a young rider to compete him in these classes so still eligible as a novice plaited. 

Away from showing he's competed in arena eventing, show jumping and been on fun ride rides. 

Completely easy to do in all ways no vices or quirks. 

He is forward thinking, loves to jump and would prefer a game rider who will let him take care of business. He is not strong, you don't have to see strides you can literally point and steer him round a course of fences and have the best time. 

Because of the way he goes he would not suit a nervous child. 

Only for sale to a 5* home due to me having a baby and just not having the time he deserves. Full history known.

Mompesson Spring Equinox- Stunning Welsh Section B

  • Sired by Waxwing Arco
  • Won first time out Showing and Workers on first attempts
£7,500 ONO
  • Welsh Section B
  • Palomino
  • Gelding
  • 4 years
  • 13hh / 133cm
  • Sired by Waxwing Arco
  • Won first time out Showing and Workers on first attempts

Norris is the most affectionate, sweet-natured pony who is a pleasure to have around. He is exceptionally mannerly and is regularly handled by children.

Carefully and kindly produced with his future in mind, he has stunning paces and oozes presence and quality. He is very easy to ride into an outline, always snaffle mouthed and has established leg yields and shoulder in. He has all the right attributes to excel in dressage, showing and, with further time and experience, working hunter.

He has had a fantastic start to his showing career, winning both of his classes at his first ridden show then going on to be Section Reserve Champion. He enters the ring with a real look at me attitude but also stands mannerly in line.

Norris recently made his first debut in the WHP ring, jumping clear and winning his first class. He is showing huge promise over fences and whilst still learning the job he has a very impressive technique. Would certainly be a future contender for M&M WHP and potential for nursery stakes with the right jockey.

He happily hacks alone and in company. He can be a little nervous in traffic, although he does not do anything silly or dangerous.

Norris would be suited to a competent, kind child or small adult who wants to produce a quality young pony and enjoy watching him develop. He is a very special character with a wonderful temperament and an exciting future ahead of him.

Good to catch, clip, shoe and load.

Serious enquiries only please. Riders and homes will be vetted. Full history of this pony is known and I would love to continue to be a part of his journey
