Has been mostly ridden by the younger generation aged 9-14 but I ride her and she can work in an outline.
Has been taught in both solo and group lessons

She loves her hacking.

Will go first, last, inbetween and happy to go on her own

FUTURE SUPERSTAR PONY CLUB ALL ROUNDER

  • A TRUE FUN PONY WHO IS BEING RIDDEN BY A CHILD

Timmy is a truly special little pony with all the attributes to become a top-class Pony Club all-rounder and a child / small adult’s best friend.

He is very genuine and willing in every way. He is currently ridden by a lightweight 13-year-old (5 stone) and is happily working in the school, walk, trot and canter. He’s popping a small course of fences nicely and has been cross-country, where he proved bold and keen, absolutely loving his jumping.

Timmy hacks out confidently both alone and in company and has been very good in traffic. He has a sensible head on young shoulders and takes everything in his stride.

He has been in the same loving place since a foal and has previously attended in-hand shows. He is now ready to go out and about and start getting some rosettes. Will be a cracking Pony Club.

Timmy is good to do in all ways — turnout, catch, stable, clip, bath, tack up, load, and handle.

A very sad reason for finding him a new jockey, he simply hasn’t grown big enough. This is a genuine, much-loved pony who will go on to be a superstar in the right hands. His family would love to stay in touch.

Still young and green, so he will need a kind, knowledgeable home to continue his education — but he has absolutely no malice and all the potential in the world.

His full wardrobe (rugs, saddle, bridle etc) are available to go with him for extra if wanted

Based Whitchurch, Shropshire

  • Big mover
  • Well bred

Exceptionally well bred 6yr old Welsh section D gelding. Big Mover.

14.3hh.. Was broken late as a 4yr old as needed time to mature. He spent most of last year being a happy hacker before starting his showing career recently where he has gained 1st and 2 x 2nds.

He is still green so needs an experienced rider however he would never do anything to hurt you, he is just a novice that takes reassurance from a kind but firm competent rider.

He is good to shoe, box, can be clipped by myself on my own, good to bath, hack on his own or in company and is good in traffic.

He has a strong cheeky Welsh character which is absolutely adored here and he loves attention.

I could see him thriving with a competent teenager as an allrounder to show, riding club, hunt, but would also excel in WHP classes.

He has done beach rides, has hunted, loves to jump, (although I don’t) snaffled mouthed at all times.

He has splints which are not noticeable with his feathers and don’t affect him in any way.

I have owned him since a yearling and this is a heartbreaking sale only as I feel I am to big on him to do him justice so please no time wasters

Up to date with teeth, back, worming and vaccinations.

He will be available to good home only

  • Rosie takes everything in her stride
  • Ideal first pony

Rosie is an eye catching Cob/Welsh cross, Rosie takes everything in her stride.

Rosie is ideal as a first pony. She is a very manageable size for young children to learn how to handle and ride a pony.

Rosie is beautiful to ride, she schools so nicely with 3 smooth paces. She has a real flicky trot and can really extend. She loves hacking! - definitely

Rosie's favourite activity. She hacks alone or in company, seen machinery, crossed very busy roads (video available).

My daughter canters her through fields and she does not get silly at all. She isn't a squeeze along but also not a kick along, so in between.

She is a great jumper. She has successfully jumped up to 90cm with ease. She has been cross country, unaffiliated show jumping (up to 70cm. ) On the ground Rosie is good to catch, brilliant to load (trots on the box), good for farrier, dentist etc. Sad sale, only sold because my daughter has outgrown her.

Comes with saddle, bridle and 200g and 50g rug, 2 saddle pads.

Fully vaccinated up to February 2027. Is not shoed.

More videos available upon request.

Good to hack and used to farm machines and animals as currently living on a farm
Good for farrier, clip ect
More of a 1.5 pony due to her age but could be a first pony if mother/daughter share or older sibling as she is still green even tho she was our first pony
Loves to be pampered, brushed ect
Loads as long as front ramp is down on trailer, travels great and will stand all day in trailer at shows with or without company

She is a cheeky, inquisitive friendly mare that has a forward going nature and will be easy to break and produce.

  • Confidence Giver
  • 1, 1.5 & 2nd Pony all in one

'Lightning' The MOST Gorgeous Best Friend anyone could wish for. He is the easiest, sweetest boy to handle. We call him our pet dog, as he would follow us around all day for cuddles if he could.

He is beautiful on the flat and very responsive. He behaves at arena hire, cross country, pony club rallies, fun rides and competitions, the same as he does at home. Perfect in open spaces and not strong. Been through water & loves a day out.

Before us he was in Ireland, and loved to go out hunting too.

We ride him in a snaffle, but when a tiny rider pops on him we put him on the second ring on a gag & this gives them plenty of brakes. Nothing more is needed, he’s that perfect. He really wants to please & never does anything naughty.

When at the gallops he’ll fly up the track with the rider trying to win, or stay 1/2 a mile back with a nervous rider just wanting to trot. He really is a dream.

Saying all this, he isn’t a complete first pony, as he loves jumping & becomes much more forward when you pop the jumps up past 50cm. He will happily trot around a course of cross poles though. If the rider can hold their reins, walk & trot, then he’ll teach you everything else nice & calmly.

He’s been to lots of stay away shows this year & loved it. Most recently Spooktacular at Arena UK, jumping double clears every day in the 40&50cm.

We’ve competed him successfully up to 65cm. Arena Hire up to 80cm, individual jumps up to 95cm. Scope for more. In Ireland he competed in 18 classes, 70&80cm and won 17 of them!! Had 1 pole in the other. With an experienced jockey he would be a complete rosette machine! Top jumping pony with the right kid.

Very fast against the clock, incredible turns. Could also be a fantastic games pony with training.

He is ridden successfully by a small 6 year old girl. As his 9 year old rider is the size of a 12-13 year old, so just too big for another season 

He’s never been schooled by adults. Any size kid/ or age can jump on. He’s good to go and super sensible & safe.

He does not kick, rear, buck or anything else of this description. No vices, or issues.

Turns out with mares & geldings.

Handled by kids daily, including my 4 year old, who turns him out & brings him in. The kids often ride him back & forth to the field in a head collar, sat on his rug.

Up to date with farrier, injections, chiropractor, dentist and wormers.

Meet splash 4 year old 14hh Irish cob. Splash has the look at me factor with his striking four white socks. He has done a bit of everything, jumping, hacking, cross country this was when he was in Ireland. Splash is a machine out hacking goes first or last.

He is green in the school but this is due to his age and due to never doing it before he come to us. However he does have a willing attitude and willing to learn. Splash does need someone who is confident, kind but also sturn at the same time so that he is able to learn.

We believe when splash finds his person and then they get to know each other they will be unstoppable in any discipline that maybe.

Broken last year he was turned away over the winter to mature and brought back in to work end of January. Since then he has been showjumping, jumping fillers and full courses, a flat showing clinic with a ride judge and arena eventing, which he loved.

This little horse is still very green and a long way off being the full package but he has taken on every challenge with enthusiasm and a willing attitude.

He is now ready for an experienced and competent person to continue his education.

Please no novices, he is a forward thinking fun cob who still needs guidance and his hand holding.

He will make a fantastic working show cob along with lots of potential in so many areas.

Well schooled , and loves doing pairs , Hunter trials, unaffiliated jumping etc, has the scope and honestly to low level BSJA too!

To hack out she is as bombproof as they come, you name it, lorry’s , buses , tractors, farm machines, dogs, bikes , motorcycles, this little lady will not blink an eye ! She is chunky enough to carry a small adult so is suitable for all members of the family.

To handle she is an angel, catch, farrier, travel, bath, grooming. Has recently been used with underprivileged children in very small riding school environment and never stepping a hoof out of line.
