Exceptional 12.1hh, 10 year old traditional coloured mare.

True first pony, lead rein, junior ridden or RDA pony.

We bought Dolly for my twin 10 year olds, just over a year ago, primarily as my daughter, who rides with the Riding for the Disabled (RDA) desperately wanted her own pony. Her twin had never sat on a pony before. Dolly has taught them both to ride, including winning numerous classes over the summer, qualifying for the sunshine tour in first ridden, lead rein and in hand classes. My children do everything independently with Dolly – bringing in and turning out, grooming, bathing, tacking up, loading, feeding. She is a true child’s pony, I know that they are absolutely safe around her, no matter what they are doing. Dolly will stand for hours and hours to be pampered, groomed, bathed, plaited and cuddled.

Dolly is fantastic to hack. She hacks in gale force winds, rain or shine, alone and in company but mainly alone as we are on a competition yard with adults – with one of my girls riding, then they swap half way! She hacks on open countryside and has experienced out of control dogs running at her, barking and jumping at her and owners chasing them and stands still and calm. We have taken her up to the South Downs accidently at the same time as a cross country race and again she was completely non plussed by multiple high vis runners on narrow paths racing past her. She’s had mountain bikes zoom past, from behind her, and again not spooked or got upset. She has an exceptional temperament that is incredibly hard to find. We have taken Dolly up on the South downs, through woodlands, to the beach, to shows – both indoor and on grass and she has been brilliant. This is all with my novice daughters who had only ridden with RDA and the other never before Dolly. Dolly has been led from me in my power chair with our two dogs running alongside. My daughter hacked Dolly from the yard to the beach with a group of adults. She had to lead the group across the railway crossing as the horses were being silly. She stood on the beach whilst they had a good gallop, away from her and back towards and then they hacked home together.

After only a few months of riding, Dolly has taken both my girls to lots of shows – their first ever show she won her classes with both children! She is very easy at shows, happy to stand and eat a haynet, for the kids to walk her round, share an ice cream, be sat on bareback and played with. She needs zero working in. My daughter who had never ridden before getting Dolly is now confidently riding in first ridden and pony club classes and Dolly has competed in lead rein, in hand, junior handler, dressage, handy pony (where she was 2nd out of well over 20 entries), never coming away without a ribbon! She won her in hand coloured class at her last show. Dolly qualified for RIHS 2025 in the open coloured ridden class and would be a really top class junior ridden.

My girls mainly enjoy hacking, doing obstacle courses in the sand school, having lessons, lunging her, doing shows, trotting over cross poles, pole clinics and just generally playing with her. They do not canter and have no desire, they are both novice / nervous and have never wanted to progress to anything faster than a trot. Dolly is very well schooled and with her previous owner competed regularly in dressage and affiliated showing, qualifying for RIHS on her first attempt. Dolly would be a top junior ridden and would excel at both dressage and showing or equally as a cherished first pony, teaching tiny tots to ride or would be an exceptional RDA pony. I do not think jumping will be her forte – she will trot over very small cross poles but we have done nothing more. My ideal home is one where she is adored and pampered like she is here.

Dolly is well used to dogs and has met cattle, sheep and lots of livestock out hacking on the downs. She is not phased by tractors, bikes, motorbikes, cars and so on.

Dolly is excellent to catch, shoe, clip, bath, load. We have a single trailer but she has also travelled in company in both a lorry and trailer – she is loaded and unloaded by my children. You can do everything with Dolly without her tied up – I can clip her face etc with no headcollar. She is very easy on the ground, has no vices and is not mareish or difficult to manage when in season. She turns out alone or in company, is respectful of fencing, has been in by day and out by night over the summer and is out by day, in by night in winter. She stables alone if needed as is very content with a haynet! She is barefoot with good feet. Dolly is up to date with her vaccinations and passed a 5 stage vetting last year (2025). She has never been unsound, unwell or needed the vet, except for her vaccinations.

Any viewings, inspections and vetting fully welcomed – I have 1000s of photos and videos to show all the things they do together.

Please note, Dolly is very heavily feathered and as such these need maintence and care specific to traditionals- will talk this all through honestly with all buyers.

Ponies like Dolly are very few and far between and references can be obtained from both previous owners.

This is a devastating sale due to an unexpected and life changing medical diagnosis earlier this year meaning I am in and out of hospital and have a long, complex treatment plan ahead. Please absolutely no timewasters, or those not in a position to buy, as this is a distressing time for everyone involved. Home is of utmost paramount importance.

This is a sale only, no loans, I am very keen to stay in touch as is previous owner, if at all possible please.

Based West Sussex, excellent trial facilities. Price negotiable to very best home.

Dolly will come with everything - bridle, rugs etc, 6 month old made to measure Ideal GP by seperate negotiation.

We can potentially help with delivery.

It is with a very heavy heart that we are tentatively looking for the perfect new home for our much-loved girl, Hudsons Ringa Rosie.

Rosie is an absolutely beautiful, eye-catching skewbald mare who is about as wide as she is tall and quite literally marked like a painting! 🎨 She has that lovely, square little native type with a foot in each corner, a fabulous temperament and an abundance of presence.

Currently standing as TGCA Part Bred of the Year, Rosie is a top-class HOYS native contender and has already successfully competed both in-hand and under saddle.

Despite her competition potential, Rosie is also the ultimate mother’s dream. She is currently ridden by a 5-year-old little girl, who absolutely adores her, Rosie has hunted off the lead and is equally established ridden off the lead, Rosie is equally adored by everyone on the yard. ❤️

✨ Rosie is:

* 6 years old

* 12.2hh

Rosie really is the perfect combination of a competitive pony and a much-loved family friend. She has the ability and presence to go right to the top, while also having the temperament and manners to be trusted with a little one.

She is the type of pony that is very hard to replace, so finding her the right home is far more important to us than simply finding her a new owner. 🩷

We would love to find Rosie a 5⭐️, knowledgeable and loving home where she will continue to be cherished, enjoyed and given every opportunity to reach her full potential.

  • 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

Immybrook Baltimores Boy (Pip)

Welsh Section A Gelding

My son has won everything with this pony Inhand. He is a pleasure to have at shows, will stand all day on the lorry, isn’t worried by other ponies being taken away etc.

Pippy is broken to ride and is a sensible forward going ride. Not nasty in anyway, loves to work! He is good both on and off lead rein. Happy to poodle round with tiny tots or go up a gear for a more confident child, he’s a versatile chap!

Hacks out alone or in company, good in open spaces and is used to farm traffic.

Excellent to do in all ways including bathing, dentist, farrier, travel. Pip is safe and sensible on the ground and to handle in all ways. He can be handled by the tiniest of tots and is never nasty in any way.

Happy to live in or out. Mixes well with mares and geldings or happy to be alone.

Delivery can be arranged

Approx 13.1 - Perlino gelding, 10 Years

Sadly offering the best boy for sale to the perfect home, only for sale as my son has given up and Champ needs to be doing more and out and about doing what he loves.

1.5 type pony, steady and reliable type and a true family pony that was ridden by my son from 10 -12, my 6 year old daughter and myself.

When we got him my sons confidence was at rock bottom due to a knock from a previous pony, he was trotting round poles on the floor and Champ soon turned that around and within in a few months they were jumping 60-70 courses, riding in open spaces and generally having the best time.

Champ has done PC rallies, stay away camp, SJ, XC, pole clinics, flat work and lots of showing. He excels in the show ring and is beautifully schooled.

He was placed in both his classes last year at stars in huge classes, 4th in the RC Pony, and Shining Star Award in the SHP, he was so well behaved in the big atmosphere. Most recently he won both his classes at The National Palomino Show. He would also be a fantastic WHP.

Good to clip, shoe, worm, load and travel.

He really is the best pony ever and will make another child very happy.

Lots of photos, videos upon request for genuine interest.

  • Excellent Lead Rein pony
  • Successful showing season with top 3 placings in Lead rein RI and London WSP qualifiers
  • A straight forward little chap who is handled daily by kids

A smart, eye-catching pony who has been an excellent first/lead-rein pony for my now 5-year-old daughter.

Herbie was bought as an unbacked 3-year-old in 2024. Since being backed he has taken everything in his stride.

Herbie and my daughter have shared many successes and experiences both in/out of the show ring.

He regularly attends Pony Club rallies. Has completed a 3-day Pony Club camp, where he enjoyed show jumping and games.

He is not spooky at fillers nor when faced with a rider carrying a large waving flag.

He is always willing to have a go at what is asked of him.

My daughter has hacked him off the lead rein and he has also been led from another horse.

Herbie is a responsive, light-in-the-hand pony who is a pleasure to lead.

Herbie is easy to handle and work with, regularly handled by my children, aged 5 and 7, who brush him, pick out his feet, bath and generally fuss around him.

Lovely to take out, relaxed in transit and happily stands on the lorry or trailer. Does not need lunged, ear plugs or calmers.

He is accustomed to a busy family and farm environment, including lorries, heavy machinery, quad bikes, chickens, dogs, and small children.

He enjoys hacking and has attended several common rides.

Good with the dentist and farrier (currently barefoot), and good to bath and clip.

He is a fantastic little pony with a bright future ahead of him and will be a wonderful addition to the right family.

Only for sale as my daughter is moving onto her sister’s pony, sadly, we can’t keep them all.

The best home is sought for this genuine and much-loved pony who will be hugely missed. Lots of videos and pictures on request.

Based South West Scotland.

Results include:

- Dumfries and Galloway Winter Show 1st tiny tots lead rein and Champion.

The Night Agent - Percy - 7 yo/ 12.3 traditional Gypsy Cob

Extremely Extremely sad sale of The Night Agent, affectionately known as Percy, due solely to being outgrown. If he were 14hh, he simply wouldn’t be going anywhere.

Percy is a stunning black Traditional Gypsy Cob with excellent conformation and an abundance of mane, tail and feather. He has real presence and is a pony who naturally attracts attention wherever he goes.

He is a sensible, genuine pony, ridden and produced by an 11-year-old girl. Snaffle-mouthed, naturally working in an outline and adjustable to his rider, he is suitable for a smaller or novice rider but has enough ability to be enjoyed by a more experienced teenager or small adult. He has also been introduced to jumping.

Percy remained a stallion until the age of five, so was started later than many of his peers and consequently has low mileage for a 7-year-old. This gives his next owner a fantastic opportunity to continue developing him.

He has been well exposed to different environments, including Somerford, stay-away shows and evening performances, behaving impeccably throughout. He has also been lightly shown this season.

His quality, conformation and traditional type make him a very exciting prospect for the SEIB Traditional Gypsy Cob HOYS classes, with the potential to be a serious contender with further production.

Away from the spotlight, Percy is a firm yard favourite and is good to catch, shoe, load, clip and with the vet. He hacks alone or in company and is good in open spaces.

A brand-new, made-to-measure Black Country saddle is included.

A genuinely special pony who combines quality, temperament and potential, and one we would love to see go to a home where he can continue to thrive and fulfil his potential.

Serious enquiries welcome.

  • Pretty and kind registered Welsh Section A mare has been a wonderful pony for our daughter.
  • Unfazed by traffic and farm machinery, happy hacking along or in company, and has done pony club.

Whinny is a pretty , kind and genuine registered Welsh Section A mare who has been a wonderful pony for our young daughter.

We bought Whinny seven months ago from an experienced horsey family. Our daughter was just 3 when Whinny arrived and, over the past seven months, Whinny has patiently and kindly taken her from a complete beginner on the lead rein to the point where she is now ready to progress to riding independently. This is very much the reason we bought her, and she has been exceptionally good at her job. She is kind, patient and reassuring with a very young child, while still being an interesting and enjoyable pony.

Whinny is exceptionally unfazed by traffic, farm machinery, dogs, bicycles, prams, quads and the general activity of farm life. She is happy hacking both alone and in company, and has proved to be a wonderfully reliable pony for our young daughter. The previous owner had ridden Whinny extensively and described her as happy hacking both on and off the lead rein. In her previous home she had done local shows, poles, small jumps, games and Pony Club activities, and had been ridden walking, trotting and cantering on hacks.

Our focus since buying Whinny has been introducing our daughter to riding rather than repeating all of her previous activities, but we are very happy with everything we have seen of her as a young child's pony. We are an experienced riding family living on a farm in the Meon Valley, Hampshire, immediately next to Hambledon North Pony Club, with extensive off-road hacking and excellent local equestrian facilities.

Whinny is only being offered for sale because, rather unexpectedly, an excellent second pony belonging to friends became available to us and we were fortunate enough to secure her. We now find ourselves with one pony too many. This is therefore a genuine very sadly for sale situation and not a sale because Whinny is unsuitable.

We are looking for a kind, experienced and permanent home where Whinny will be loved and enjoyed as a family pony. She would be particularly well suited to a family looking for an excellent lead-rein pony for a young child, with the opportunity to gradually introduce them to riding independently.

We would also consider a long-term loan to the right home, for the right family and circumstances.

Whinny is a good-doer and requires sensible grazing and weight management. She is good to handle generally, although she prefers a calm, experienced adult for the farrier. She is fully up to date with farrier care, teeth and vaccinations and has been very well cared for throughout our ownership.

A lovely, genuine family pony who has given our little girl a wonderful start to her riding journey.

TOYS QUALIFYING GREATEST GELDING. (Sold with his ticket to compete) "Perfect stamp, you could pop him in a box" said the judge. Competed at the weekend by his 4 year old jockey! First time out with Ferris wheel, shires, tractors, trailers , donkeys and cows and didnt bat an eyelid! .

Safe and sane as houses. Will go very far with a knowledgeable family. Old head on young shoulders Obi is pretty unflappable. Has completed Pony Club camp off the lead rein this summer with a nervous novice, trained mounted games and done a little bit across all 3 disciplines.

Obi is the kindest, cuddliest, biddable and amenable lead rein pony. Stands all day long to be fussed and groomed (and lets face it with that feather it's just as well!).

Super in traffic, out hacking in front or behind, open spaces and pony club group rallies. He has a personality to die for and deserves a long term family home with loads of little people.

5 years old same home since 6 months he doesn't have a bad bone in his body. He's as close as you can get to bombproof but still only young so I will not sell to first time pony owners or dealers.

Flashy little mover. Goes well to voice command and proven very popular with the judges in the showing ring.

Full publicly available album of his antics on my Facebook Page page #fionaclarkponies Producing Ponies for Kids and Pony Club by Fiona Clark . 5* knowledgeable family home only please for this very special pony. Based Yorkshire.

  • Great in open spaces
  • Sweetheart on the ground

Bluey is a great lead rein pony who has been part of our riding school for the past year. Unfortunately, we simply aren’t using him enough, and we feel it’s unfair to keep such a super little pony when he has so much more to give.

He is an excellent lead rein pony and is completely unfazed by nervous, wobbly or unbalanced little riders. He has experience with our usual riding school clientele, including children from just 4 years old, as well as RDA (Riding for the Disabled) and school visits.

He is brilliant in open spaces. He is regularly ridden as part of a group both in the arena and in our fields, but is equally happy being ridden on his own. He is excellent on the road and completely unfazed by traffic, tractors and general farm machinery.

Bluey is good off the lead rein, although we have only ever put competent riders on him. He has a lovely little jump and really enjoys popping over a fence!

He is a real sweetheart on the ground and can be groomed for hours. He is good to bath and is generally very easy to handle. He has never been clipped with us, although we have no reason to think he wouldn’t be fine.

Bluey is currently turned out in a mixed herd of approximately 30 horses. He is happy living both in and out and is equally content being stabled. At present, he lives out overnight. During the winter months, he comes in at night and is turned out during the day. He would be happy continuing with this routine or living out 24/7.

Bluey is currently barefoot and is easy for the farrier to trim. He is up to date with his teeth, chiropractor and saddle fitting, and is snaffle mouthed at all times. He is also fine to travel.

Experienced, loving home sought for this lovely little man.

Pumpkin 🎃🤍

Looking for 🏡

Pumpkin is 12.2/3 6yo welsh X

And is probably one of the safest ponies I have ever produced. Has put up with me doing all sorts of kid stuff and never batted an eye!

I’m 5.8 and ride her fine, she takes up the leg. But really needs a kid or light adult to enjoy her. As she really is wasted here with us.

Loves to jump, and could be the perfect fun all rounder for someone.

Brilliant to hack alone or in company and is bombproof in heavy traffic. She’s great with machinery and has hacked along side and over a busy motorway.

On the ground she a mother’s dream, when tied up she will stand to be groomed for hours. She has done pony parties and is a fan favourite!

Is green in the school, but the longer she stays here. Price will increase as she really has potential.

She is good on the lead rein, isn't bothered by kids making noise moving around etc, but gets bored if this is her only job so needs to find a small kid to have fun with! So would not be suitable as a first pony with no other riders.

Good to load, clip, shoe (currently barefoot), bath, lunge, will stands for hours to have her mane pulled and happy to be lead from or to.

Happily out 24/7 in the summer and in at night during winter. She’s in a big mixed herd, Lives on air and overall just very easy to keep.

🐴 Charlie Brown 11hands age 17 The Ultimate Confidence Giving Children’s Pony 🐴

A very special pony looking for a very special little person. For sale on behalf of a client.

Charlie Brown is quite simply the biggest confidence giver you could ever wish for. He’s the sort of pony every parent hopes to find — genuine, experienced, kind and completely devoted to his children.

Charlie has successfully taken children from lead rein through to first ridden, giving them the confidence to become independent while looking after them every step of the way.

He’s truly been there, done it and got the T-shirt:

⭐ Lead rein & first ridden

⭐ Showjumping courses

⭐ Cross-country courses

⭐ Showing

⭐ Low-level dressage

⭐ Hunting

⭐ Fun rides

⭐ Can be led from another horse

⭐ Happy hacking and generally being a child’s best friend

Charlie absolutely adores being out on the field. Hunting, fun rides, cross-country — this is where he really comes into his own. He loves being out and about, seeing the world and having fun with his little rider.

He knows his job inside out and has carried children safely around courses, helping them learn and gain confidence without frightening them. He seems to understand exactly who is on his back and adjusts accordingly.

What makes Charlie Brown particularly special, though, is his relationship with children. He absolutely adores them. He loves being groomed, fussed over and involved in whatever his little people are doing.

This is an incredibly difficult advert to write because genuine ponies like this are so hard to replace. For a family looking for a pony who can start on the lead rein, progress to first ridden, hunt, jump, do XC, attend fun rides and generally give a child the confidence to believe they can do anything, Charlie is worth his weight in gold.

He isn’t looking for a little jockey. He’s looking for his next little person. 🤎

Charlie Brown

Small pony. Huge character. The biggest confidence giver you could ever ask for. Good to do in all ways.

12.5k. South Wales based. Plenty of videos and references available for this special little chap!

Wanted LWVTB

  • Temperament is more important than breed
  • 13hh - 15 2hh
  • RDA centre needing LWVTB/Loan
  • Temperament is more important than breed

We are looking for any breed for LWVTB as they will need to be trialled in our RDA environment before purchasing to see if they're suited to this lifestyle before a participant can ride them. This is as much for the ponies as the suitability for riders.

Must already be ridden and has to be over 5 yrs old (RDA rules). Can accept some quirks but must be safe for our disabled riders. They will also have to pass a stage 2 vetting which can be arranged whilst on loan.

We can offer a high standard of care, a light work load so older ages are acceptable if sound.

We have stables but they live out as much as possible even throughout winter. We can offer small herd/individual turnout.

If you would like to check out our RDA centre we are online and Facebook as Elisabeth Curtis Centre.

He is a true gentleman. For sale as very sadly out grown. A great kid's pony. Good to catch, clip, shoe, teeth, travel, hack out, groom, wash.

Mixes with other horses inside or outside.

Good on lead, or off lead. He will walk beside you if you need to walk with your child. You can also lead another pony from him.

He doesn't mind dogs & been used to heard sheep.

Exceptional 12.1hh, 10 year old traditional coloured mare.

True first pony, lead rein, junior ridden or RDA pony.

We bought Dolly for my twin 10 year olds, just over a year ago, primarily as my daughter, who rides with the Riding for the Disabled (RDA) desperately wanted her own pony. Her twin had never sat on a pony before. Dolly has taught them both to ride, including winning numerous classes over the summer, qualifying for the sunshine tour in first ridden, lead rein and in hand classes. My children do everything independently with Dolly – bringing in and turning out, grooming, bathing, tacking up, loading, feeding. She is a true child’s pony, I know that they are absolutely safe around her, no matter what they are doing. Dolly will stand for hours and hours to be pampered, groomed, bathed, plaited and cuddled.

Dolly is fantastic to hack. She hacks in gale force winds, rain or shine, alone and in company but mainly alone as we are on a competition yard with adults – with one of my girls riding, then they swap half way! She hacks on open countryside and has experienced out of control dogs running at her, barking and jumping at her and owners chasing them and stands still and calm. We have taken her up to the South Downs accidently at the same time as a cross country race and again she was completely non plussed by multiple high vis runners on narrow paths racing past her. She’s had mountain bikes zoom past, from behind her, and again not spooked or got upset. She has an exceptional temperament that is incredibly hard to find. We have taken Dolly up on the South downs, through woodlands, to the beach, to shows – both indoor and on grass and she has been brilliant. This is all with my novice daughters who had only ridden with RDA and the other never before Dolly. Dolly has been led from me in my power chair with our two dogs running alongside. My daughter hacked Dolly from the yard to the beach with a group of adults. She had to lead the group across the railway crossing as the horses were being silly. She stood on the beach whilst they had a good gallop, away from her and back towards and then they hacked home together.

After only a few months of riding, Dolly has taken both my girls to lots of shows – their first ever show she won her classes with both children! She is very easy at shows, happy to stand and eat a haynet, for the kids to walk her round, share an ice cream, be sat on bareback and played with. She needs zero working in. My daughter who had never ridden before getting Dolly is now confidently riding in first ridden and pony club classes and Dolly has competed in lead rein, in hand, junior handler, dressage, handy pony (where she was 2nd out of well over 20 entries), never coming away without a ribbon! She won her in hand coloured class at her last show. Dolly qualified for RIHS 2025 in the open coloured ridden class and would be a really top class junior ridden.

My girls mainly enjoy hacking, doing obstacle courses in the sand school, having lessons, lunging her, doing shows, trotting over cross poles, pole clinics and just generally playing with her. They do not canter and have no desire, they are both novice / nervous and have never wanted to progress to anything faster than a trot. Dolly is very well schooled and with her previous owner competed regularly in dressage and affiliated showing, qualifying for RIHS on her first attempt. Dolly would be a top junior ridden and would excel at both dressage and showing or equally as a cherished first pony, teaching tiny tots to ride or would be an exceptional RDA pony. I do not think jumping will be her forte – she will trot over very small cross poles but we have done nothing more. My ideal home is one where she is adored and pampered like she is here.

Dolly is well used to dogs and has met cattle, sheep and lots of livestock out hacking on the downs. She is not phased by tractors, bikes, motorbikes, cars and so on.

Dolly is excellent to catch, shoe, clip, bath, load. We have a single trailer but she has also travelled in company in both a lorry and trailer – she is loaded and unloaded by my children. You can do everything with Dolly without her tied up – I can clip her face etc with no headcollar. She is very easy on the ground, has no vices and is not mareish or difficult to manage when in season. She turns out alone or in company, is respectful of fencing, has been in by day and out by night over the summer and is out by day, in by night in winter. She stables alone if needed as is very content with a haynet! She is barefoot with good feet. Dolly is up to date with her vaccinations and passed a 5 stage vetting last year (2025). She has never been unsound, unwell or needed the vet, except for her vaccinations.

Any viewings, inspections and vetting fully welcomed – I have 1000s of photos and videos to show all the things they do together.

Please note, Dolly is very heavily feathered and as such these need maintence and care specific to traditionals- will talk this all through honestly with all buyers.

Ponies like Dolly are very few and far between and references can be obtained from both previous owners.

This is a devastating sale due to an unexpected and life changing medical diagnosis earlier this year meaning I am in and out of hospital and have a long, complex treatment plan ahead. Please absolutely no timewasters, or those not in a position to buy, as this is a distressing time for everyone involved. Home is of utmost paramount importance.

This is a sale only, no loans, I am very keen to stay in touch as is previous owner, if at all possible please.

Based West Sussex, excellent trial facilities. Price negotiable to very best home.

Dolly will come with everything - bridle, rugs etc, 6 month old made to measure Ideal GP by seperate negotiation.

We can potentially help with delivery.

We are hoping to find a really good home for this handsome little star where he will be loved and enjoyed by a new little rider.

He has proved to be a safe fun pony, doing various PC activities, fun rides, hacking, training sessions. His current rider was 8 when she started the loan and she is now 10 and growing fast ..so looking for a bigger pony. Since I, ( the owner) don't have any children he is offered for sale.

He is not a whizzy pony... quite steady , although genuine enquiries can see his showjumping video where he does a lovely clear round at a good pace over a set of 50cm jumps with his loan rider.

He is available straightaway and can be viewed at loan home near Alsager, Staffordshire.

Genuine enquiries please, we really want him to go to a kind knowledgeable home where he will be well looked after. He's such a lovely personality he does deserve a home where he will be appreciated, so please don't be offended if I ask questions about his next home.

**To enquire please text first as limited phone signal means I often miss calls and I do not use voicemail... at least texts usually get through and then I can go to an area of better reception to call you.

Price reduced to £3950 just over the next week , simply because rider is keen to find bigger pony now that she's grown, so whilst he is still with loan rider I've made his price more competitive to find a nice home for him. If he returns to me at my yard I will just put his price back to £5500 .

  • Characterful and kid friendly
  • Safe and solid
  • Loves to hack

12.2 Approx 17yo gelding (no DOB in passport). Steady and safe on the lead rein and for a novice, but equally has hunted and has a good jump including dykes. Great to hack, good in traffic and open spaces. Typical pony will veer to grass (we use balance support reins which sort it). Lives in or out with any herd, has been a wonderful nanny to our youngsters. He will lead another or be lead off another. Good to clip, load, travel. No particular ailments, has the odd cough if arena dusty, goodness knows if would fly through a 5stage vetting but he is a good, sound, kid friendly pony. Goes barefoot with us. More and videos on request.

NB- My son was a total novice when we bought Fred, and my main prerequisite when I purchased Fred was SAFE. He has never once given me a moment where I have had to worry that any high jinks (!) are about to occur, he is a super cool, solid ‘mums favourite’ kind of pony that would equally give some fun to a slightly more ambitious rider within reason. Much more whoa than go- a small rider would struggle to get him to canter in the arena without a tap or mum clicking but similarly a stronger child could probably coax a half decent SJ round out of him.

Please no tyre kickers- we think the world of him and this is a very sad sale!

- He is in his late teens

- He is a pony (!). Will always try veer off to grass/ a bucket, is prone to laziness.

- He may not fly through flexion tests

He has good legs, not covered in lumps/ bumps. He doesn’t have any sweet itch etc and has never had a bout of lami with us.

He will do his absolute best to look after your child and has no wild ideas of going fast or busting any moves without plenty of encouragement.

He is super friendly with adults, kids and animals alike.
