Looking for confidence giving first ridden 12hh to 12.2 to join our family

  • First ridden to join our family
  • 12hh - 12.2hh
  • Doesn’t matter the age as long as safe

We are looking for a first ridden to join our family for the long term and join our 3 other geldings. Preferably a gelding but if the perfect mare came along would definitely consider it.

My son who is 6 is just coming off the lead rope and loves riding as well as looking after a pony. He doesn’t need speed yet (thankfully) more laid back but not dead to the leg. The relationship on the ground is so important to him too as he spends his spare time on the ground with the ponies. So a pony that likes to be pampered and is polite.

He will do starter pony camp this year, he has a fantastic teacher who comes to our home.

Ideally no lami or sweet itch

Doesn’t matter the age as long as safe, will give confidence to my son to continue his riding journey and loves to be loved.

Price negotiable depending on right pony and very happy to travel

Selehems Lord Cannon

11.2 grey section A gelding- 15 years young.

He has been with us for 4 years and has taught my eldest daughter to come off the lead rein as her home fun pony when our show ponies were professionally produced.
We now run them all ourselves and he is sadly outgrown and on the back burner most of the time which he's far too good for.

He loves to jump- really brave and bold, hack and generally be loved.

He still has plenty of life left in him for someone else to enjoy or I would happily retire him with us but he still really enjoys his work.

He's probably more of a 2nd pony rather than a FYFR but he will step up or down depending on the jockey.

Good home is a priority as it is an extremely hard decision to sell him.

Good to hack, box, trim, bath etc and will live in or out.

We bought him as a lead rein pony for our 6yr old boy 2 years ago. In that time we bace been to pony club camp, hunt rides, hunting and lots of hacking.

He has a lovely temperament, easy to catch, travels in a lorry or trailer, good in all traffic, not spooky, would never kick and loves a fuss.

He has no health issues, and is currently fully clipped.

Only to the very best of homes.

Idyllic pony , green passport

Been there done it type of pony, in his early years he done lots of in hand showing and first ridden classes , active member of pony club , mounted games, horseball , rallies, XC , polework clinics ,musical rides, showing, stay away shows .

Great pony for kids to learn to ride . He will take your child from lead rein to first ridden

We bought Clive as a first ridden for my daughter who was more independently coming off the lead rein . He has been the best next step pony for her and he is just the most honest and safe pony who will look after his little rider, Has done lots of hacking around and about , goes past tractors , all farm animals , safe with dogs running around. He will step up for an older rider or down for the little rider . He prefers XC rather than showjumping , but will equally happy go over a little course with a leader , following or an older child .

Never sick or sorry, lives on fresh air, currently living out in a herd. Happy to be stabled or shelter . Loves a bath, and good for farrier , clipping he does need sedation , he has had bad previous experience from being twitched . He is good for farrier and does need a lady vet and someone who doesn’t come in and try and stick a needle in him without first giving him some fuss and treats . (Has only ever needed vaccs and teeth doing!) he loads and travels brilliantly. Has stayed out at shows , you can take him to different environments and he is just the same . He is barefoot and up to date with vaccs, worming, teeth and comes with tack (beautiful new saddle fitted ) and rugs.

He is comfortable will all farm machinery and a variety of animals! Snaffle mouthed and never strong or silly , so happy out and about hacking too and loves looking after his little riders out in open spaces . Never changes if left for a week or two and then be ridden . He can be protective of his hay and happy when left alone to eat . He will pull a face to tell you to leave him alone to eat . Never a problem for us. Great to catch .

Very calm in the stable and field, not worried about being on his own. He in his element when he attends pony club with his fellow pony friends . Active member of pony club so always out and about . He has the best character . I can honestly say he has been the best confidence giver ever and this is why we have now come to the point that my daughter would like to take the next step pony , no other reason than my daughter wants to progress from a steady boy who has given her the best confidence from that transition from lead rein . I can’t thank this pony enough for where he has got my daughter too .

Happy to answer any questions you may have , only the best home for this boy

If you’re looking for a safe confidence giving starter pony he is the best .

Please only enquire if you are actively looking for a pony.

4yo Registered Shetland pony mare with exceptional breeding lines - 39inches tall.

Lattie has been professionally started - long reins, lunges and is happy with a little jockey on board wandering around the yard.

Good with dogs, kids, loads, travels & well behaved at arena hires (indoor and outdoor). She has bags of potential and will make top class M&M/LR with someone who is willing to further her education.

We purchased her from Clare Connor in December 2025 for our daughter who’s had a huge growth spurt and is even looking big on her 12.2 pony so we feel it is best to find Lattie a knowledgable home with a little jockey to build a partnership from the beginning.

  • 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’s 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’s not an issue.

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

All leads will be handled with discretion.
