Jigsaw is the sort of pony that very rarely comes onto the market — a genuine, kind and incredibly trustworthy pony who has a heart of gold and will quite literally look after her rider.

She is a true all-rounder who happily turns her hoof to hacking, jumping, cross country, arena hires, hunter trials and competitions. She is equally happy going out alone or in company, will go in front or behind, and takes everything in her stride.

Jigsaw has been ridden by a very novice and nervous young girl, taking her confidently through her first solo hacks, first cross-country schooling and competitions. She is incredibly reassuring without being boring, making her a wonderful confidence giver while still being a fun pony to take out and about.

She absolutely adores attention and will happily stand all day being fussed and groomed by little children. She has the temperament that makes you feel you can put a young child on her and know she will do her very best to look after them.

She also surprised us by arriving with a foal on the way when we bought her — something we had no idea about at the time! She went on to be an exceptional mother, foaling very easily and taking to motherhood completely naturally. She was incredibly kind and attentive with her foal and handled the whole experience brilliantly, which is another lovely testament to her temperament and sensible nature.

She is a pleasure on the ground:

* Excellent for the farrier

* Good to clip

* Good to travel

* Easy to handle

* Up to date with dentist and vaccinations

* No vices

She is a straightforward, uncomplicated pony who is genuinely lovely to have around and we really cannot say a bad word about her.

This is a very sad and heartbreaking sale of a much-loved pony, only because her young rider has unfortunately lost interest. Jigsaw has been a huge part of her rider’s life and deserves a wonderful new home where she can continue to be someone’s best friend.

Ponies of this calibre are absolute gold dust. She would make an exceptional child’s pony, confidence giver and family pony, with the ability to go out and have fun as well as being the sort you can trust with the important things.

We are looking for a 5⭐️ loving home and will be very selective about where she goes. Homes will be vetted.

Serious enquiries welcome. Please no timewasters — this is a very special pony and finding her the right home is far more important to us than a quick sale.

Mikey’s Magic is a seriously lovely traditional cob with the looks, temperament and ability to turn his hoof to just about anything.

At 8 years old, Mikey has already shown himself to be a fantastic all-rounder. He will show jump and go cross country, yet is sensible enough to be ridden by a child in an open field. He has also been successfully shown in-hand, regularly bringing home the red ribbons.

He is totally sound with clean limbs and no lumps or bumps, and is a really lovely guy to have around. He’s the sort of horse who combines plenty of presence with a kind, genuine nature.

Whether you’re looking for a smart family cob to have fun with, a horse to get out competing, or simply a best friend to enjoy, Mikey has so much to offer.

A very special cob who deserves an equally lovely home. 💕

Cadlanvalley Enchantress

A real life Barbie unicorn, bought as a 3 year old from the wpcs sale, my daughter had seen her on Facebook entered and said I want this one, she was broken in all by my then 8 year old little girl, she has just had the most fun on her.

She does absolutely everything on her, we live on a busy working farm and she is used to the hustle and bustle of farm life. She’s ridden through large open spaces daily, never being strong or silly. Stolen by my six year old little girl to ride out and most recently taken to a show and went supreme of show with a tiny tot FYFR jockey. She had so many winnings from shows over the last couple of years in the first riddens, young handlers and m and m classes . She is a real head turner.

Princess is a pleasure to have around lives in or out and is stabled with us at night. She is solely done by the children tacking her up, riding, bathing, rugging, brushing, loading. I really don’t do anything. She is the sweetest little mare and just aims to please in everything we do.

Regularly taken down to the river with her friends, hacks out alone or in company, loves jumping. Unfortunately she is hopelessly outgrown and is looking for a new little girl to love her and give her cuddles. If we could keep them all we would never sell her. But my grumpy farming husband says no more and daisy needs the funds for a bigger pony to take her gangly legs.

Daisy has shown her in a few HOYS qualifiers this year even with her long legs and been placed.

3rd at the Royal welsh (ticket to 2nd)

6th at the 125 anniversary show.

She takes to the busiest buzziest shows like a seasoned pro. I’m in the lead rein class before with my other little girl and happily leave her outside on princess knowing they will be safe.

We have loads of videos and pictures please message us for any information and to come and see her.

This is a really sad sale of a much loved pony.

✨ Chime – Welsh Section A Mare | Approx. 11.2hh ✨

Affectionately known as Chime, this lovely young Welsh Section A mare is looking for a confident, experienced home where she can continue to learn, gain confidence and reach her full potential.

Chime has been used as a lead-rein pony for my 4-year-old daughter and has also attended pony games and pony camp with a 6-year-old rider. She is a pony who really benefits from having a confident child who believes in her. My 4-year-old is very confident and has had no problems with her.

One of Chime’s biggest strengths is how well she copes with new environments and experiences. She loads and travels well and takes new places in her stride. At camp, she was completely unfazed by a new stable, flapping gazebos, tents and all the general activity that comes with camp life. She would really thrive in a Pony Club-style home where she can get out, see the world and continue experiencing new things.

Chime is very much a character and a mare with her own opinions! She isn’t naturally an overly affectionate pony, but she will stand to be groomed, fussed over and covered in glitter. She is also very much part of family life here and will happily hang out in the garden while the children are playing in the paddling pool, taking everything going on around her in her stride.

She can pull faces when she has had enough and has bitten handlers when her boundaries have been pushed. She is, however, very clear in her communication and gives warning. She needs people who are confident enough to understand her body language and respect her boundaries.

Ridden, she is good on the lead rein and will have the occasional small spook. These are nothing dramatic and are small enough for a confident child to sit to. At camp she had a session with a complete beginner rider, aged 8, when she spooked. She simply carried on with what she was doing and the rider was completely unfazed.

Another lovely quality is that Chime doesn’t hold onto a fright. If something does worry her, she is happy to carry on and revisit the same place without making an issue of it. This gives her a lot of potential as she gains experience and confidence.

She is still a young mare who needs further education, consistency and guidance, but I feel she has plenty of potential for someone prepared to put the time into building a partnership with her.

On the ground, Chime can be a little bit of a diva when it comes to catching! She is very much a pony who wants to build a bond with her person and, in my opinion, would absolutely thrive in a one-owner home where she can develop that special relationship with someone who understands her.

She is straightforward to keep and is happy to be stabled on her own or alongside others in a barn. She is equally happy turned out alone or in a group and is best suited to turn out with geldings.

Chime isn’t going to suit everyone, and I am looking for a confident, experienced child with knowledgeable parents or an experienced home. She needs someone who will appreciate her character, understand her signals and give her the consistency and confidence she needs.

I genuinely feel she could be a fabulous little Pony Club pony for the right person, with plenty of scope to develop her education and experience over the coming years.

A young mare with bags of character, a great attitude to new adventures and huge potential for the right partnership. ❤️

Priced accordingly to reflect her age, current experience and the knowledgeable home she requires.

Very sad sale of our lovely Dolly pony. We have owned her for nearly 3 years but is now sadly outgrown.

Dolly was our daughter’s first pony and has taken her from never riding and being on the lead rein, to cantering through the woods on her own. My daughter is a nervous rider and Dolly has definitely given her confidence and they often ride down the road bareback with just a head collar on now!

She is quiet in traffic and we hack down busy roads and through villages with no issues.

Dolly will happily stay next to a push bike (on or off the lead if asked) which we found really helpful as we could cover miles at a decent speed!

We did some pony club lessons to help teach my daughter how to ride but we haven’t been for well over 12 months as we prefer hunting, pub rides, picnic rides and exploring! My daughter isn’t a fan of jumping but will pop over a log if there’s one in the woods. Dolly did quite a bit of jumping in her previous home though, especially out hunting!

Dolly has hunted with us and we have been to several of the Christmas meets which have been in a town centre and Dolly has behaved impeccably despite the huge number of people and horses.

We’ve been to shows with Dolly and she has been happy doing her classes and then being tied up at the trailer for the rest of the day!

She is really nice on the ground and is good to clip, bath, load, farrier and my daughter handles her for everything.

We often have friends smaller children over and they ride her on and off the lead rein so she’s still used to tiny wobbly children learning the ropes!

She adjusts to the rider and will step it up if asked but will also happily plod along the road with a wobbly child on board! Her previous owner loved whizzing around but my daughter prefers a slower pace and she’s never bucked, bolted or reared with us (which is super important to us as I don’t think my daughter would ride again if she got bolted with or bucked off)

Tack is included in the sale

Sadly these ponies just don’t grow with our children and the time has come for Romeo to find his new little person 🥺 Mya’s absolute pride and joy, the last of her little ponies left and will be so devastated to see him go!

Romeo will be your child’s best friend, if you want to go out and have fun doing pony club, hunter trials, hacking, beach rides, hunting, shows, you name it he will look after your child regardless of where he is. I frequently send Mya off with the hounds, snaffle mouthed always and he brings her back with a smile ear to ear every time! The only thing we haven’t done with him is dressage and showing although I have no doubt he would also excel here - Mya just refuses to be involved 🤣 she’s not once fallen from him, however frequently falls from her others - so a testament to him not her🤣

We would love to find him a home where he would be adored as a real child’s pony and best friend, he is the politest boy on the ground, turned out with our other ponies and done by Mya pretty much solo since she was 8! A home that appreciates a varied life and doesn’t want to go round in circles in an arena, not because he won’t do it, but because he loves all aspects of life 🫶🏼 super competitive and always in the ribbons up to 70cm, hunter trials also in the ribbons! If he doesn’t sell Mya will team chase him this winter and he will remain as her super fun pony!

His only vice is will windsuck if doesn’t have hay, I manage this by making sure he’s never left empty, although he isn’t a pig so won’t eat himself to obesity 🫶🏼 I find people are either bothered or unbothered by this which is totally fine, but please don’t view and use this as a reason to not go ahead. He means the world to us and this is a very sad sale!

A real life unicorn that will look after your child, is super safe and hopefully will give them as many fun years as he has Mya 🦄 loads of videos of him on @life.withbobby on instagram based Reigate, Surrey, 10k

May we present the rarest of rare gems 💎. A standout debutant of the 2026 showing circuit and proven child’s ride.

Black shetland, Dutch bred and imported in 2025. Measuring 104cm when licensed as a 3yr old, VVE certificated and gelded for the First Ridden / Junior job last November.

4yr old Rivaal V Stal Polderzicht (Clogs to his child friends) has exceeded all expectations in his first year under saddle. His success and consistency speaks for itself, whilst not being campaigned heavily due to age:

⭐ Qualified RIHS PP FR at his first attempt and PP LR at his second. Placed at finals.

⭐ NPS Winter Novice FR Champion and second at the Summer Finals.

⭐ NPS shetland Picton Champion 2026.

⭐ NPS Darvagel four-year-old Pony Champion 2026 (mixed breed class).

⭐ Open NPS FR winner at the National Shetland Performance Show and Reserve FR Champion.

⭐ Strong placings in a few HOYS qualifiers across LR, FR and JNR sections.

⭐ He has also recently started jumping and is proving brave whilst steady. He competed in one LIHS FR Sports Pony class this year and went absolutely foot-perfect.

Aside from his results and outstanding way of going, Clog’s true beauty lies in his second-to-none temperament. He’s a one in a million four year old with an old head on young shoulders. I’ve let my daughter’s non-horsey friends ride him, he has been ridden by tiny children and he is as kind and genuine as they come. He sits beautifully on the bridle for a small jockey and has the attitude and ability to do the lead rein job all the way through to opens. He really steps-up and steps-down depending on his little rider.

He has no vices, hang ups or health issues. The children can do everything with him and he’s great in traffic.

Genuine sale due to a change in direction with our showing. We know he will have his day at HOYS, and when that happens we will be proud to have been part of his journey 🥹…

Only the best, kind showing homes will be considered 🖤. Five figure budget required to reflect his success and temperament.

Super Suzie – Safest First 128 Competition Pony/ BS Starter Pony

  • First Pony & First Competition Pony all in one
  • A proper school master & has done a bit of everything

Super Suzie as we call her, is just that, an absolute Super Star. If it wasn’t for Suzie I think we might have given up.

Suzie is a competition pony, however she is versatile & can be many different ponies for you. With a rider who knows what they are doing, she can feel this & she’s buzzy & ready to go. But when we’ve popped my 4 year old son on, she’s a donkey. Including taking him around the full 7 miles at Somerford, totally off lead by himself. How many ponies can you trust with a 4 year old in a sand school, let alone in open spaces? Then how many competition ponies will do this? She’s really incredible & we can’t speak more highly of her.

Suzie is a proper school master & has done a bit of everything:

* SJI & BS Show Jumping

* Pony Club

* Private and group lessons

* Fun rides

* Cross-country

* Games (but only the kids playing in the school)

Suzie was brought from Ireland for my son’s 7th birthday, she was his 2nd pony (1st pony was so spooky, he would fall off all the time, he had never cantered off lead until Suzie). He wasn’t really ready for a competition pony, yet she trained him up fast. She made him feel safe, which he had never felt when riding until this point.

Suzie has a very decorated jumping record in Ireland with a lot of wins up to 1m. We have competed her up to 85cm, single fences at home of 1.10.

Her only ‘fault’ is she is marish. She has never actually kicked another pony when in season, but she would. We’ve tried her on regumate & it works, but makes her too steady for us. By her being like this, she is extremely confident in herself, which actually makes her a parents dream & I look for this trait in all other ponies now. By her being so confident in herself. She doesn’t need other ponies around. So can be in the field by herself, in the stable, at shows, hacking etc. It also means she’s not spooky or scared of anything. Which means bathing, clipping, new fillers to jump etc. No problem for Super Suzie. My kids can do everything with her too.

She can turn out with others, but we turn her out individually & I think she prefers it. I’m always 100% honest about our ponies, as I only want them to go to the right homes. If anything I usually make any faults sound worse than they are, as atleast then it reduces the risk of selling to the wrong home.

She has never bucked, reared or napped. No vices or medical issues. No medication.

We are only selling Suzie as my son has totally out grown her. He’s only 9, but the size of a 14 year old, so we’ve had to move him onto bigger ponies. My other son has just turned 5 & has a smaller pony which the size is more suitable for him for at least another year or so. However much I’d love to keep her, I need the funds.

She is:

✔ Up to date with vaccinations

✔ Up to date with the dentist

✔ Up to date with chiropractor

✔ Farrier every 6 weeks

✔ Loads and travels beautifully in both a trailer and horsebox

✔ Happy to stand on the lorry all day

Our ideal home would be for Suzie to do exactly what she’s done for us, but for another boy or girl. As we are so appreciative to Suzie & I’d love her to go somewhere else where they feel the same. She’s a Queen & needs to be treated like one. So it goes without saying, only the very best home will be considered.

Please, genuine enquiries only. We don’t have time for multiple casual viewings or “pony shopping” days out, and we don’t think it’s fair on Suzie to have lots of children trying her. We ask that you only arrange a viewing if you genuinely feel she could be the right pony for you.

More photos & videos on request. I have hundreds. Videos from my son first sitting on her, dropping his reins at every jump, making it as hard as possible for Suzie 😂, to now, where they are a pretty cool team. Plus many with his 4/5 year old brother riding her too. Including at POP/ Aintree mid-August where my 5 year old competed her completely off lead rein by himself in the cross poles, then later my 9 year old took her around the Stepping Stones. She was completely two different ponies for them.

Dilly is a very special, genuine lead-rein and first-ridden Shetland mare who has been a much-loved part of our family for the past 7 years, having taught our children to ride.

⭐ Dilly is:

🏆 An experienced ridden pony with years of experience – 16 years old

👍 Brilliant in all traffic

🐴 Confident and enthusiastic over a jump

🌟 Loads and travels like a pro

🫶 Loves to hack

🎪 Takes shows, Pony Club rallies and new environments in her stride

👧🏼 Absolutely fantastic with children

🛁 Easy for children to handle and care for – our children tack her up, lead her, load her etc.

✂️ Excellent for bathing, clipping and having her feet done

❤️ Hacking is her absolute favourite thing. She happily keeps up with our 16hh and the other ponies. She may be small, but she is mighty in personality!

She also enjoys jumping, Pony Club rallies and shows. She is confident in new environments and completely unflappable with noises and new experiences. She can also be led from another pony, making her wonderfully versatile.

Dilly has even played the lead-role “donkey” in the school Christmas nativity assembly. ❤️🥰

She is such a kind and genuine pony that we also feel she could potentially be very well suited to a therapy/SEN environment.

Our children initially rode her in an Inky Dinky saddle from around 1–3 years old. She is now ridden with a Zoe Snape showing pad.

🐴 Home is very important

Dilly must go to a home with other ponies/horses. She absolutely loves equine company and does not like being turned out alone.

💔 A very hard sale

Our children have now moved onto bigger ponies and Dilly no longer has a regular rider. She is just far too good to be sitting in a field.

We are looking for a 5-star, ideally long-term home where she will be loved, included and kept busy. We are in no rush and would happily wait until Spring for the right home.

We would love to find Dilly a family where she can continue to have fun, go hacking, attend rallies and shows, and be a much-loved member of the family.

Lots of photos/ videos available to send you

  • 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

After two very happy years, the difficult time has come to find Coco a new home, as our daughter has sadly outgrown him.

Coco is a much-loved lead-rein and assisted first pony who is ideal for a young child beginning their riding journey. He is kind, affectionate and incredibly easy for children to handle. Our 7 y/o can catch, groom, tack up, load and lead him herself, and all of her friends have enjoyed riding him.

He is perfect for teaching a tiny tot the basics, including rising trot, steering and gaining confidence around ponies. He is happy to pop cross-poles, hack, loves a PC rally, dressage and all other Pony Club activities. He won the overall points prize at our PC show this year in dressage, PC pony, SJ and WHP. He attended PC camp this year and was a star, has been to the beach, clinics, etc etc. Hundreds of videos on request. He will follow his leader like a lamb.

Coco is barefoot and lives out all year with other geldings, doesn't mind being stabled. He is straightforward to manage and loves attention and being included in family life, always the first to the gate.

He has been a wonderful pony for our daughter and has given her two years of fun, confidence and happy memories. He is only available because she has outgrown him and has moved onto a bigger pony. Finding the right home is extremely important to us and homes will be vetted.

He will only go to a loving, knowledgeable home where he will be treasured and has a new best friend. We would love his new family to keep us, and his previous owner, updated on his future adventures.

Full wardrobe including a fitted saddle and 2 rugs by separate negotiation.

Located 20 mins from Edinburgh airport and Waverly Station.

Trig - Approx. 13.2hh, 3yo, Cob x WB, Gelding.

Trig has been in the same home from 6 months old until 3 weeks ago, when he arrived with me to very lightly start his ridden career before finding his new home.

Trig is now approaching his second week under saddle and is confidently riding around the farm in walk and trot. He’s also been down through the village a couple of times and really enjoyed it. He isn’t phased by vehicles, is happy out on his own and is perfect out on the long reins too.

I don’t feel there’s much more for me to do with Trig ridden wise at this stage, as he’s only 3, but I’ve made sure he’s happy and confident with the basics ready for his next owner to continue with.

Trig has the sweetest nature. As you can see from his video, he’s a really kind pony who absolutely loves attention. He’s perfect to handle and is good as gold on the yard. He’s often the last horse I bring in and isn’t fazed by being left out on his own for a short period.

He attended a local showing competition as a 2yo and did really well. In his previous home he was often handled by a 10 year old boy and they were best friends. Trig absolutely loves children!

I’ve tried to cover a bit of everything in his video so hopefully you can see what a lovely little pony he is, especially for his age.

Good with the farrier and has recently had front shoes put on while here, purely because it’s very stoney. Up to date with dentist, vaccinations and worming. Has wanted for nothing.

Based in Leamington Spa

  • Loves his job and always loves to please

All round pony club pony who’s been there done it type, he is a genuine honest much loved pony who loves his job and always loves to please.

We have owned him for the last 3years and he’s done everything with us .

In the flat he’s a lovely calm ride who will give a cild confidence and look after them.

He’s been a Lead rein pony in his early days and taught so many children to ride.

He loves to jump up to 80cms and completed in unaffiliated and all pony club competitions/rallies.

He’s completed in mounted games for many years and would suit any rider from novice to 1st year seniors but not done games this year because not fast enough for my granddaughter.

He’s completed will do any race any position and will stand like a rock for change overs .

He’s completed will stand for the stirrup when others are racing past him, he will go for the vault if he knows you’re confident and will wait for wobbly children to get on.

The last year he’s mainly done jumping and hacking because granddaughter has another pony.

He’s snaffled mouthed and never strong or silly he’s done hunting previously but that’s something we don’t do.

He hacks with company or by himself and not fazed by any traffic including farm machinery,diggers,lorries etc..

My granddaughter goes out on him by herself or with her friends and he always behaves impeccably in open spaces and I’m happy letting her go knowing she’s safe.

He will give first or last and takes it all in his stride and will also plod along while others go off.

He loves a pub ride and likes salt & ginger crisps at the end!

He is good to load by the smallest of children and travels on his own or with company and you don’t know he’s on board in a lorry or trailer.

He’s also happy to stay at home by himself if others go out.

He will stand by the lorry at competitions all day.

He lives out but does like to come in if it’s raining or cold in the winter.

He’s got no health issues as and is bear foot, excellent with farrier and having his back checked and is update with jabs.he enjoys a bath except who’s face so we use a sponge, he will stand all day to be pampered by the smallest of children.if he could he would come in the house and live with us!

The only thing is he’s on hayledge because hay makes him cough but you can soak it and he’s fine.

He prefers to be on his own in a paddock but will go in a herd.

He is well known in the pony club and has been owed by alot of people locally who would happily give references including DC and instructors/ games trainer.

We are only selling because he is hopelessly out grown and my grandson isn’t interested in ponies

We would love to keep in touch because this is a very difficult and heartbreaking decision for us and my granddaughter.

He will come with tack and rugs.
