Lovely gypsy cob - perfect as a lead rein, first or second pony. Nice and quiet and has been there and done it all type.

A super pony for children and would be a great addition to any riding school or family home. Monty is an amazing little pony with a heart of gold.

He will happily take the smallest of riders and look after them, through all traffic open space farm animals and machinery.

He will try to nibble if he’s held to tight he likes a bit of rope to be able to go forward

He’s totally wasted with is as my son isn’t interested

  • Kevin is Mr Perfect if you don't mind having to use your leg.
  • Mr Reliable who is seeking new home only due to owner being way too big for him.

Kevin is a 14.1hh 8yo Cremello Cob Gelding who is looking for his new home due to his rider outgrowing him. Kevin is a safe ‘been there done it’ type who will step up or down for his rider.

Kevin has been in the same home for nearly 18 months and helped his rider come from being nervous to canter to competing in SJ, Dressage, XC and attending many Pony Club Rallies and PC Camp. He is a leg on type of ride who looks after a novice rider or can be spiced up by an experienced rider if needed.

Kevin makes a great shape over a fence and has competed up to 80cm and jumped DC and placed in 50,60 and 70 Showjumping. Not phased by fillers or water trays. He has placed 3rd in a PC 70cm Hunter Trial and schooled at many different venues across the South East. Jumps ditches, steps, banks and water etc no issue. He has also enjoyed jumping his own puissance at home where he has reached 1.05m.

On the flat Kevin has three athletic paces and schools sweetly up to Novice/ Ele level. This has not been his rider’s focus but despite this he has still placed with respectable scores at Prelim, including qualifying for the PC Regionals - scoring 67% there. With more of a focus on flatwork, I believe he could be competitive at Ele and even produce a Medium test.

Kevin loves to hack and goes alone and in company round the fields, on the downs, beach and roads. Will hack on the buckle or enjoy a canter - goes first or last. He can have the odd spook or shy but is known as Mr Reliable in the yard and will often be used to ‘nanny’ young or tricky horses.

He is also good to catch, clip, load, travel and shoe. Only shod in front and travels in both a trailer and a 10t lorry here. Passed a 5 stage vet to come to us and has only needed to vet for jabs and teeth since.

He is Mr Perfect if you don’t mind having to use your leg. Safe, sensible and sound. Passported and up to date with everything. Tack is available at separate negotiation. Open to viewings, vettings and trainers. He would suit a huge variety of jobs including PC, RC, pure Dressage or even a solid happy hack.

Top Class Allrounder – Kind & Talented 4, rising 5yo Class 1 Connemara Mare

Introducing Sophie, a stunning 4-year-old Class 1 purebred Connemara mare, standing at 14.2hh. Sophie is the definition of a traditional Connemara pony—she has a leg in each corner, a beautiful head, a kind eye, and a calm, generous nature that makes her a pleasure to work with every day.

Sophie has the ideal temperament for a novice rider, a riding school program, a mother-daughter share, or a young rider wanting to do a bit of everything. She is sweet, steady, and exceptionally quiet, both to handle and to ride. Her laid-back attitude and genuine nature make her the kind of pony that gives confidence and always tries her best.

Under saddle, Sophie is nicely schooled with three balanced paces and a lovely rhythm. She works in a soft outline and listens well to her rider. Over fences, she really shines—she has a super jump with a careful, tidy technique that would make her an excellent working hunter or Pony Club allrounder. She is honest and uncomplicated to a fence and is equally bold and sensible out cross-country, where she never looks at a thing.

Sophie’s kind and willing attitude make her an ideal candidate for Pony Club, working hunter, or family use, and she has the temperament to suit a wide variety of riders. Whether you’re looking for a safe and straightforward pony to learn on, or a quality young mare to produce further, Sophie ticks every box.

She comes from excellent traditional Connemara bloodlines, by Tullaree Hawk (a son of the legendary Dexter Leam Pondi), out of a mare by Bobby Joe, with Garryhinch Finn also in her pedigree—names known for producing performance ponies with sound temperaments and quality conformation.

Sophie has no stable vices, passed a recent 5-stage vetting, and is open to re-vetting for serious buyers. Her price includes delivery to your yard anywhere in the UK, and if she’s not the perfect match, we offer an exchange policy for peace of mind.

Take a look at her video to see just how lovely and genuine Sophie is. For more information, feel free to call 00353868077626 or email gertytynan@gmail.com. This kind and talented mare is ready to find her forever home.

Perfect First Pony – Safe, Sweet & Steady 4, rising 5yo Purebred Connemara Gelding

Meet Silver, a truly lovely 4-year-old purebred Connemara gelding standing at 14.2hh. With his calm, kind nature and beautifully quiet temperament, Silver is the type of pony that’s very hard to find. He’s safe, steady, and reliable, making him an ideal choice for novice riders, a mother-daughter share, a riding school program, or a young child moving up from smaller ponies.

Silver is easy and uncomplicated in every way. He is a dream to handle on the ground—easy to catch, box, shoe, and hack, and he is perfectly sensible in traffic, he will hack out alone or in company. Under saddle, he’s just as easy. He never gets strong, silly, or spooky, and he takes care of his rider every step of the way. He’s laid-back without being lazy and has a lovely attitude towards his work, making him a pleasure to produce.

This gorgeous gelding has a very pretty head and is beautifully put together. He moves well, with three super paces, a soft, kind mouth, and a naturally balanced way of going. Silver is also very capable over a fence—he’s jumping confidently up to 90cm at home and is honest and straightforward to a jump. He’s the type you can point at a fence and trust him to take you over, making him an excellent confidence-giver for a child or smaller teen.

Silver would make a fantastic Pony Club allrounder. He’ll happily take a little rider from crosspoles all the way up through the levels, always giving his best and building confidence. He is quiet enough for beginners but talented enough to keep progressing with more advanced riders too.

He is a fully registered purebred Connemara gelding, with lovely old-fashioned bloodlines: Dunloughan Troy x Coral Star x Mervyn Kingsmill—breeding that brings together temperament, quality, and soundness. Silver has no stable vices and is open to any vetting.

His price includes delivery to your yard anywhere in the UK, and if he’s not the right fit, an exchange can be arranged—we’re confident you’ll love him. Be sure to watch his video to see what a special pony he is.

For more information, call 00353868077626 or email gertytynan@gmail.com. Silver is ready to make someone very happy—don’t miss this one!

Goldie is the ultimate happy hacker. He is exceptional in traffic. He will go alone or in company , perfect in open spaces , pops logs out hacking, stands to mount , opens gates etc. he really is so reliable. Hacked out and ridden in general by anyone and everyone! From myself , right down to my 3 year old daughter and everyone else in between.

Gives both my kids lead rein lessons at the weekend and is a little gem. They are going to hate me for letting him go that’s for sure but sadly neither of them are ready for the 14.2’s !

Rides in the arena but is complete clueless and genuinely very green and just lacking mileage. He’s been a hacker all his life. No vices etc, very willing , just has no idea about the arena job description! Would be very easy to educate which of course we have started here

Not a spooky type , always snaffle mouthed , more woah than go …. Everyone needs one like him!!

Loving homes only please , he’s one of the special ones


DO YOU HAVE A HORSE OR PONY SUITABLE FOR THE RDA?

WANTED ON LONG TERM LOAN / PURCHASE

Ref #: 249896
  • If you think your equine has what it takes, please contact one of the groups below
  • If you think your equine has what it takes, please contact one of the groups below

One of the main issues that RDA groups face is finding an Equine to suit the needs of the participants in their group.

We are regularly contacted with offers of Equines that are ‘the ideal RDA horse or pony’ when actually what is ideal for one group may not be for the next. We are trying to move away from the stereotypical view that RDA Equines are elderly and somewhat static, our horses and ponies need to be fit, healthy and athletic to cope with the lifestyle in an RDA group.

They can range from smaller, forward going ponies to weight carrying cobs and can take part in a range of disciplines from Riding to Carriage Driving, Vaulting to Show Jumping and Endurance.

If you contact an RDA Group about your Equine please be prepared to fill in an Equine Initial Interest Form which will ask you many questions about your horses’ temperament, health history, experience and lifestyle. Many groups will prefer to have an equine on trial to make sure they are suitable for the job.

For long term loans and purchases they will also be required to have a Pre-Purchase Examination.

If you think your equine has what it takes, please contact one of the groups below.

Super Steady and Safe

Winter Rose is a really nice calm considerate girl, she is a stunning model that’s been there and done it all.

Tonnes of experience and unbelievably safe. Ideal for beginner riders, or riders who wants to progress and have some fun, she is super steady, calm and gentle in every way, she has more woah than go …..a bit of a plod, even tho she is super safe, she responds to the leg and has 3 excellent paces, with flare and enthusiasm, she is very sensible and can be forward going if your a more experienced rider, not spooky, sharp or silly in anyway, she is responsive to the leg if you can ride, whilst remaining calm and relaxed, she is extremely willing and will do anything you ask, she has 3 nice balanced super steady paces, she loves to jump a course of small coloured and rustic fences.

Winter Rose participates in our low level showjumping, cross country, In hand & handy pony competitions.

She is a fantastic all-rounder.

This is a really fantastic horse for anyone to build up their confidence, continue learning to ride and progress on.
Definitely a 1st and 2nd horse.

11yrs Schoolmistress

Exceptional mare with tonnes of experience for sale, she has spent several years in a private one to one home where she has done pony club and low level competitions and shows, she is now working in my riding school where she has been ridden by all level riders, from complete beginners who have never sat on a horse before up to advanced riders where she participates in our flat work lessons, privates and groups, with the same enthusiasm now as when he first started her riding school career. She is very genuine and loves to hack out, she doesn’t pull, rush, spook or get nervous of anything, she will hack through the heaviest of very fast moving traffic without batting an eye lid, she is not perturbed by any kind of vehicles or farm machinery.

She will hack out alone or in company through very heavy fast moving traffic without batting an eye lid. She have basically seen every vehicle out there motorbikes, pushbikes,double-decker buses, articulated lorries, farm machinery you name it she’s seen it.
She is 100% safe, steady and collected when ridden in all paces across open fields, regardless of wether she is at the front, middle, back of the ride or on his own, she will not rush, pull, race or try an overtake even on the way home.

She lives out in a mixed herd but is equally happy to be stabled, she keeps herself to herself and never causes any trouble, she has no marish traits, isn’t clingy, she is happy to be stabled and turned out on her own.

Has excellent manners with the farrier and currently barefoot, she is equally happy to be shoed.
She is excellent to catch, load with the farrier, dentist and vet.

Winter Rose is a lovely mare with a kind, genuine temperament. She has been a valued member of our busy riding school, showing patience and reliability with a wide variety of riders. More recently, she has occasionally shown a little grumpiness when being tacked up, which we believe is simply due to the frequent girthing, tacking and untacking throughout a fast-paced day. She prefers a quieter one to one setting.

She would give confidence to any rider/ handler when competing, cross country, showjumping, fun rides and beach rides.

She doesn’t need to be ridden every day she can go without work then be tacked up and ridden without any fuss, she is extremely low maintenance.
He has never been lame had laminitis, sweet itch or sarcoids. No lumps or bumps. No Marish traits.

Passes are annual Licence Inspection which is equivalent to a stage 2 vetting.

Looking for a five star private home to give someone the opportunity to purchase a safe and very sensible horse, with so much to offer.

We have a few horses and ponies available for sale.

This is a truly heartbreaking sale, but as a riding school we regularly refresh our horses to ensure their wellbeing. The routine can be demanding and repetitive, mainly in the arena carrying riders of varying experience levels. We believe our wonderful horses and ponies deserve the chance to enjoy a one-to-one partnership in a private home, where they can thrive and continue to be cherished.

  • Affectionate, lovely easy temperament and super ‘model’ of a pony

Beauty is a kind, genuine 15 yr old mare.

She has been in the same home for 7 years until we have had her for the summer to have some fun on as she has been genuinely outgrown by three sisters who have now all moved on to horses.

She has hacked alone and with others, good with traffic and cattle/livestock.

She is an uncomplicated ride, not a total first pony as she is fairly forward going but isn’t a buzzy pony, she’s never bucked or reared, she doesn’t jog or get silly, she just doesn’t need constant nagging to go!

That said she’s always ridden in a snaffle and has excellent brakes! She has a very soft mouth and her riders don’t feel out of control or worried. She has been ridden by novice nervous friends and isn’t the scary type! However, the rider best suited to her is one who can already trot and canter and now wants to get out to pony club and local shows and have fun. She would happily take you round the NSEA showjumping and help to get a little person confident and out competing.

Last weekend she had a 1st and a 2nd Arena Eventing with a new rider who borrowed her for competition experience. She’s super chilled in the warm up and doesn’t need hours of working in. Whilst she does have a scope jump she’s not a complete competition type, I would say that courses up to 75cm ish are probably her forte although she’s jumped over 1 metre 20 in chase me Charlie!

She has hunted, been on fun rides, beach rides, and various other things.

She lives in or out, despite being a quality type she happily winters out with rug on. No known health issues, she’s vaccinated and currently shod as we have stony hacking.

Loads and travels in anything! She’s just a lovely pony to be and have around.

Needs a loving new home and smaller rider for her next chapter of adventures. She has stacks of personality and loves her humans and we’re looking for the very best of homes for her.

She comes with her tack and loads of nice Amigo rugs. Price is negotiable as we’d like to see her happy and loved in her new home not standing in a cold boring wintery field without the TLC and attention she really does deserve.

Hants/Wilts border with good trial facilities but happy to take to arena hire etc too

Super cuddly 13yo full up 14hh cob, cheap to keep, easy to groom/ clip/tack up/bath/ catch/ farrier etc. My 9 year old can do everything with him at home.

Works in a nice shape in the arena with a more experience rider.

He is generally quiet and if anything a bit lazy on the flat and hacking (think Labrador pony enjoying to try to get snacks mid hack!) however, unfortunately Uggles had proved a bit too much jumping for my very very nervous 9 year old moving up from her 12.1. He loves jumping and can sometimes get a bit too keen for her.

This is a very sad sale as he is such a lovely boy but they are just not the right match, and he deserves to be out having fun!

Super bold jump, jumps all scary fillers, previously done BS80, lots of unaffiliated 60/70 with previous home, double clear in all of his classes last year at Trailblazers with previous owners who are still in contact with us.

Well behaved out and about at local and unaffiliated shows, pony club rally’s etc with us and previous owners, stands on the trailer with hay net quietly

Lovely to hack in company, (or with person on foot) he is ok on his own but takes confidence from his rider in new situations. He was foot perfect on the beach on his own with us.

Well hunted with previous owner, in a gag but very polite

Best suited to a confident child/ teenager/ small adult wanting a great allrounder/ riding club pony. Has plenty of scope for an adult to have fun on!

Takes up the leg well so ideal mother/daughter share.

Lives out happily or in and out.

Prefers a box, but loads fine in a trailer in a bit with a treat! Does load in a chifney or bit and likewise if you have to turnout long distance or with lots of lush grass a chifney is easier to stop him diving for grass

Passed 5 stage vetting earlier this summer
Can come with some tack, saddle at separate agreement
Home most important

true, super safe, genuine, well schooled, allround pony.

Cassie hacks alone and company,first or last. super safe in open spaces and down the beach ,crossing rivers. she is good in all traffic including farm machinery. cassie regulaely attends riding club being good in group or individual lessons. never puts a hoof out of place. handled daily by children with 0 drama. cassie goes when you ask her to with no flapping and kicking and stops when you ask her to. she is not strong and is nicely schooled on the flat,pops into canter and doesn't rush, will go as fast or slow as you ask her. she really is a super safe,dream pony.

And this is the list of what she's done...

Blaze, beautiful, uncomplicated, RDA type 13'3 piebald mare. 18 years young, in fabulous health. Non spooky type.

Ideal mother/child share (max. weight of 10 stone). Has always been unshod. Easy to do in all ways, currently handled daily by a 10 year old. Up to date with vaccinations, teeth and hoof trimming.

Happily hacks out, either behind or in front, not phased by lorries, tractors, trailers, prams, dogs etc.

Happily schools in both an indoor arena (with mirrors) and an outdoor arena. Loads beautifully and has attended some local jumping classes.

Can be turned out alone or as part of a herd. A type that is hard to find. Was in her last home from the age of 5 until I bought her 18 months ago. I purchased her to be my forever pony, very sad sale due to me no longer being able to ride due to chronic illness, or she wouldn't be going anywhere.

Looking for somewhere in the region of £ 3,850, with tack by separate negotiation. Excellent facilities to try her in.

This is a very honest advert, i paid significantly more than I am asking for purely for her temperament, as I needed to be as safe as possible. Based not far from M5, Junc.22
