Zeus is a full up 12.2 with a leg in each corner and is a real sturdy little pony! Rider in photos is 5ft4. Has been ridden and competed by children in Ireland.

If you’re looking for a pony for your child to have lots of fun on, then Zeus is for you!

He has competed 60cm unaffiliated classes. With a fantastic and careful technique over a fence, he has the scope and ability for so much more and will easily be a fab BS starter pony and more, he is training round 70/80cm. Not spooky at any fillers, will jump whatever he is pointed at, never looks for a way out! Zeus has been cross country schooled multiple times which he loves! He’s gone on many XC rides out in large groups. Zeus has also done many riding school lessons in Ireland. He is a fun forward going ride so no total beginners please. However, he is snaffle mouthed in all disciplines, not at all strong and is sensible to ride. Has never bucked, reared, bolted etc. I recently imported him from Ireland and have been having lots of fun with him since, but he is now ready to find his little friend to make memories with!

Zeus is good to handle and deal with, tack up, catch, load, travel. Travels in a trailer and a big horsebox no bother! He actually enjoys being clipped and can be clipped with no head collar on! Even all round his face and ears. He’s a joy to be around, I regularly hop on him bareback in a head collar and ride him down to the fields.

Zeus is up to date with vaccinations, dentist, recently shod in front. He is fully clipped and ready to go have lots of fun! Zeus loves to hack out and enjoys rides out at the beach. Zeus is currently living out, but is happy coming in and being stabled too.

He will make the ultimate pony club pony, hunting pony, show jumper, event pony, he will turn his hoof to any discipline.

I hope to find Zeus a little rider who is confident and will thrive with a fun little pony. Open to any viewings, trainers, vet inspections. Would potentially be open to a short trial period. Passed a five stage vetting on purchase.

Talented family Pony

Super talented pony with a superb temperament which is hard to find! enjoys her work loves to jump, oozes potential, easily managed by a 12-year-old but also takes an adult as seen on pics, regular hacks alone and company and has been out to the beach where she behaved impeccably. She is standing at 13.1h
4 years old has been started correctly and hasn’t been hammered. She has a good breaks listens as well to the aids and wants to please. Wouldn’t think twice about taking her to a clear round, she has jumped short course is at home up to 90 will try her best to jump off any stride,

  • Rosie really is the teacher’s pet; she tries her hardest and wants to please
  • Fun loving pony that is ready to get out and about
  • She has plenty of untapped potential
Update: Recently Rosie has shown that she can be slightly nervous with new riders on her - she just becomes a bit tense, but has never bucked, reared or been naughty. She is relaxed and happy with me riding her, however has shown that she can be slightly nervous of new riders. She will be perfect for someone if she is given the time to get to know her rider. For this reason her price has been reduced to reflect the fact she will need time to settle in her new home.

Rosie is a well-mannered and brave pony that always tries her best. She has 3 flashy paces that are all improving daily. Jumping is Rosie’s favorite thing to do; she has the scope and brain to make a very talented show jumping or event pony. She would equally love a home that participates in Pony Club and wants to have tons of fun.
She is not quite the finished article, but at 7 years old she is improving every day. Rosie was backed as a 4-year-old and then had a foal as a 5-year-old, this means she is still green in her canter and jumping, however I have no doubt it won’t take long for her to ride her age.

Recently Rosie has been to an arena hire where she took everything in her stride and showed just how talented she is. She also recently went XC schooling, jumping ditches, water, steps and colored fences. Rosie didn’t hesitate at a single fence and jumped absolutely everything first time.
Good to load, travel and was happy to be left alone on the lorry even when another pony was taken away. Super easy to handle and very friendly. She has recently seen the dentist, physio, farrier and saddle fitter, and was well behaved for all of them.

When Rosie first came, she did put her back up and scoot forward when getting on. This now only happens very occasionally and I am sure she will completely grow out of this. But a rider that is happy to walk on a loose rein for a few minutes before asking her to do any proper work would suit her best.

She does have a saddle that is fitted to her that can be bought upon separate negotiations.

This wonderful pony has a fantastic temperament, he has been used in a busy riding school for eight years and taught hundreds of children how to ride. He’ll stand all day to be groomed, has three lovely paces

Would be a perfect first pony or second pony as he can step up for a confident rider and has a scopey jump and could easily go affiliated.

An experienced pony who has taken part in all pony club activities, camps, been unaffiliated showjumping with a novice child on, done online dressage, jumped cross country fences and has also been hound exercising and behaved brilliantly.

He hacks out alone and in company, turned out in a mixed herd, good to trim, load and clip but needs the twitch when doing his legs.

Out of faidre lady may, a direct daughter of cascob jack flash
By hillgarth maxxy's ghost, a direct son of hwylog ivanhoe

This filly has been out all summer and rubbed some of her mane. I have a feeling she has sweetitch (NOT CONFIRMED BY VET), she has been stabled for that last month with daily turned out and she has stopped rubbing, if sweetitch this would be manageable with daily care. Has the potential to be a top class SHP. A really easy yearling to do everything with.

I don't know what she would be like to box as was born with me. Only forsale as reducing number, please feel free to contact at any time. If no answer please send a message

Very good stamp of a fell with excellent breeding would definitely go far in the show ring .

Broken in as a late 3 year old and has been gently ridden since. Has been given months off before and just jumped straight back on , a really easy type . Very kind on the ground and would happily be dragged around all day by children .

Mainly only been ridden alone on hacks since I dont often have anyone to go with and is very sensible. Goes over water and ditches no questions asked . Started schooling where she needs more time put into her and showjumping which she has really enjoyed! So would make an excellent working hunter with the time put into her .

Been to the beach and behaved impeccably . She is barefoot with very good tough feet , always behaved for her trim.

Based north Devon and feel free to pop me message with any questions if interested.

Would consider part ex with money my way

Hugo is a lovely pony, we have owned him since a yearling. He was backed last year and turned away, has come back fantastic this spring. Lovely soft mouth and schooling well in all three paces, he loves to please and is a real head turner.

Has been shown locally in hand, and won every time out in good company. Will be a definite contender for toys and fabulous all rounder.

He is a great second pony, and not your typical kick along cob he is forward going and flashy.

He went to his first country ride this week and loved it, remaining safe and sensible even when galloping in a large group.

Serious enquiries only.

133cm beautiful 5yr old mare please don’t be put off by her age she certainly has an old head on young shoulders, this pony does it all.

We bought Mabel as a potential HOYS junior coloured pony but my daughter has outgrown her before they’ve had chance to do any qualifiers.

Mabel has the kindest temperament and is super chilled. She’s amazing to hack with traffic and in open spaces, she hacks alone in groups first or last, she absolutely loves hacking. Shes not spooky or silly and takes everything in her stride, nothing bothers her she’s even ok with riding over railway bridges while trains go underneath her!

She travels beautifully in a lorry or trailer and is calm and well behaved when out and about. She’s been to group lessons, working hunter shows, xc schooling, dressage, flat shows and is off to stay away dressage camp.

Mabel has beautiful paces and is progressing well with her schooling. She’s more woah than go and will happily trot round cross country or show jumping but will step up to canter when asked.
Mabel has given my daughter so much confidence and fun we couldn’t have asked for a more perfect pony!
She’s such an easy pony to have around you can pick her up and put her down, she’s the same if ridden every day or left for a week or two. She’s perfect for a nervous or novice child wanting to hack out and have freedom cantering across fields or a more established child to school on.
Available after dressage camp ending 14th August.

Home is most important as Mabel is very special to us and we’d love to stay in touch.

For sale; Blackie, a wonderful sturdy little hacking / project pony

Fantastic temperament and character – great with small children, dogs and other horses with kind ground manners.

Can live out 24/7, but equally happy and hugely polite in a stable – even when his other stable mate goes off out without him.

Easy to catch, good for the farrier, good for the vet, good for the dentist, easy to worm and has been fully clipped without issue, although he is a bit impatient when his legs are clipped.

Will load perfectly onto either a small narrow trailer or large horsebox

Particularly enjoys a groom and a fuss and stands beautifully when tied up - fell asleep having his mane pulled recently

Barefoot – trims required every 7 weeks or so

Currently living with a mare, has also lived with a gelding and in a mixed herd without issue

Passed a stage 2 vetting when I bought him in 2022 and I’ve had no issues with him health wise/soundness since. No laminitis but we do manage his grazing

Up to date with vaccinations – next due by 15 December 2025, teeth rasped May 2025 and feet trimmed 13th August

He has apparently been broken as a ride and drive pony, but I’ve no experience of this so am not able to guarantee his ability

Has so far been unphased in all sorts of traffic - he is used to large farm vehicles and construction workers' vehicles

Low maintenance – lives pretty much on fresh air

LOVES, his hacking (alone or in company) and is very happy to squeeze through small gaps, cross little bridges, goes up and down banks, pops over logs, will splash through water and will go for hours without being silly once you turn for home.

Blackie is an honest, fun, genuine pony with a big heart and a lot of character. He will make a small lightweight adult or competent child jockey very happy. He has also proven to be safe and reliable when used as a lead rein pony. However, he is not a novice ride in certain situations. He started out with me as a green 5-year-old and was used exclusively for hacking for my daughter who was still relatively inexperienced herself. She had weekly lessons on him to further his education and they both made lovely progress, but we never took him to any pony club events, rallies, clinics etc. My daughter outgrew him rather too quickly, so he moved very locally (on loan) to my sister and her 2 children and has been with them since November 2024. Whilst he has been pretty much foot perfect hacking – on and off the lead rein – they started to take him to some small events and this is where we have run into some problems. He found the noisier events stressful and with a novice rider on board his behaviour escalated and sadly they had to pull out of the latest event as his jockey didn’t feel confident enough to continue with the class. I certainly believe this could be worked on (alias the project pony reference) as he has shown a flair for jumping, and at other quieter events with an experienced rider on board and a smaller group of ponies he has tried really hard, but realistically my niece needs a pony that has “been there and done it”.

I will only sell to a 5* home for him (no dealers or riding schools please) where he has company, endless hacks to enjoy and for somebody experienced to get the best out of him – he is a quick learner and whilst I already think he is absolutely cracking, there is much more potential to unlock for somebody who has time and love to give him.

He will come with all his tack, which includes a saddle bought brand new for him (Wintec) and some rugs, although unless the weather is absolutely brutal, he can manage without.

Very hard to pick videos, I have so many but I have shared one of him being an absolute gent in the stable for his current little owners, one of him having a canter in the open with his current young rider and another showing him coming unphased through a pond with other ponies on a recent hack (he is the one in the front). All videos have been taken in the last 6 weeks.

  • Lovely quiet temperament
Blackie is the ultimate leisure/pleasure all-rounder with a golden temperament. He is offered for sale on behalf of his owner who’s circumstances have sadly changed leaving no time for him. He is a 15h 5 year old (going on 10!) black Irish cob gelding. He is a real stunning quality stamp who catches the eye where ever he goes. He is gorgeous inside and outside to match and will make someone a horse of a life time for sure. He has good conformation, clean limbs and straight movement. He is such a desirable type as he is a great size for everyone to ride from children to teenagers and adults alike; he would be perfect for a mother/daughter share or family horse for everyone to enjoy. He really excels as a pleasure horse to take on sponsored rides, happy hacks, horse holidays, beach rides, and to do low level riding club on. And best of all he is super safe and very genuine and honest with a quiet gentle temperament.

Blackie is super to hack, he has done more hacking in company due to his owner’s preference but he does also go alone. He has done lots of hacking in groups and trekking through the country side on an easy rein. He is very sensible in open spaces and will happily canter at the back of the group without getting strong or competitive. You can drop you reins on him in canter and he won’t run away, in fact quite the opposite. He is great with traffic and hacks straight out onto a busy through road where traffic goes flying past him. He is super with arctic Lorries and tractors passing him too. He is a lovely medium to ride when out hacking which makes him a real pleasure to ride. He has been on lots of pleasure rides which he really does excel at, he gives other horses confidence as he is such a calm influence. He is so much fun on pleasure rides and always makes you smile and have a good ride. He has been on beach rides where he is always fantastically behaved and loves the water. He would be the ideal type to take on horse holidays and enjoy hours of exploring together as he is super comfy too and relaxed in new places. He has also hunted in Ireland with a 13 year old girl where he proved safe and steady so would also suit a hunting home. He would also excel in a trekking centre.

Blackie has good basic schooling established with lovely natural paces. His paces are very smooth and comfortable. He is a steady ride in the school and does need some leg from his rider to keep him going. This makes his rider feel very safe and confident. He has been ridden by novices as well as more competent riders and adapts well. He has also been ridden by children and really looked after them. He is snaffle mouthed for everything with a lovely light mouth. He is very forgiving and doesn't mind if his rider loses balance or misses a beat, he will just slow down and let you catch your balance. He is a basic walk, trot and canter in the school, can sometimes get the wrong canter lead on one rein as he is more used to cantering in straight lines on a hack. He has also just learnt walk to canter which he does very well so he is very willing and trainable. He is alos starting to work in a nice outline. He could easily school up and do some dressage as his paces are good and he has a lovely rhythm. He would suit a wide range of riders from competent novices through to more experienced riders that just want a straight forward easy going ride that they can pick up and put down as he doesn’t require daily riding to keep sane.

Blackie enjoys his jumping. He is very honest and genuine to jump, he looks after his rider and will happily just trot in or equally come in canter. He doesn’t get at all strong or fizzy, juts super easy and straight forward. He is a very much point and aim type who helps his rider out. He isn’t a world beater but enjoys to have a go and has jumped around 80cm. He jumps fillers and water trays. He has been to some local training shows and unaffiliated comps in Ireland as well as pony club. He has also been xc schooling several times where he was such a good boy.. Hes very confident and jumps everything first attempt including ditches and water. He is a very straight forward ride and takes his rider into the fences nice and confidently but remains steady and very safe and sensible. He would excel at hunter trails as well as being suitable for all low level pony club and riding club activities.

Blackie has a superb quiet temperament. He really is such a nice sweet person who wants to be everyone’s friend and wouldn’t hurt a fly. He is easy to handle and is very polite with manners to burn. He loves to be groomed and pampered. He is such a kind loving boy who is very gentle and calm. He is very good to catch, bath, shoe, load, catch ect. He will live alone or in company and in or out, he just goes with the flow and is bottom of the pecking order. He would make a wonderful addition to a family.

He would make the perfect leisure/pleasure horse for hours of hacking and fun rides with some bits of riding club thrown in for fun. It is really important to his owner that Blackie finds a 10* home where he will be loved and enjoyed.

Passed a 5 stage vetting 2 months ago that can come with him and is open to re vetting. Videos available on request. Based in Ramsey, Cambridgeshire. £11,250.

Beautiful 2015 palomino gelding standing at 13hh (full up chunky type who massively takes up the leg) this gorgeous boy will stand for hours to be groomed and loved, he enjoys human coming and has a kind, sweet nature.

Teddy isn't going to win races, he's a steady, safe riding school type rather than a competition pony. He is a leg on ride, confidence giver, laid back lad and has the most lovely rocking horse canter which will teach the most wobbly of people to ride!

Teddy has previously worked in a riding school, he's great with nervous or novice riders, he will also work well on the lead rein, and is equally as good when off it, he will jump small fences in trot and canter and will look after his rider.

Teddy is absolutely wonderful to hack out when alone or in company, he would never hot up or get silly, he's a real easy going lad and will go out in the biggest, heaviest and scariest traffic you can find, a happy hackers dream pony.

This beautiful boy deserves the best of homes, open to any vet or trainer

Meet Matty, a charming and genuine 4-year-old bay gelding standing at 14.2hh – with a lovely, solid stamp and presence. While Matty shares that easy-going cob nature, he’s very much his own pony, with a slightly more forward and responsive feel under saddle, making him a fun and rewarding ride for someone wanting a confident giving pony.

Matty has a super temperament – calm, affectionate, and full of personality. He’s the type who quietly watches everything going on, always curious but never over-excitable. He’s been a pleasure to produce so far, taking everything in his stride with maturity beyond his years. Whether it’s hacking out, flatwork, or popping a jump, Matty gives things a go with a willing attitude and a kind heart.

On the ground, he’s a joy to handle – respectful, easy to lead, and very affectionate without being pushy. He loves a fuss, happily stands for grooming, and is always up for a cuddle or scratch. In the stable or the field, Matty is straightforward and polite, settling quickly into routine and making friends with everyone.

Under saddle, Matty goes in a snaffle and has a soft, balanced way of going. He’s responsive yet safe, with just the right amount of go – ideal for someone who wants something that listens but doesn’t get strong or sharp. He’s proving to be confident over fences, showing scope and a natural ability that would lend itself well to Pony Club, riding club, or fun outings. He’s happily jumping small courses and has schooled over logs, ditches, water, and banks without hesitation.

Matty hacks out sensibly both alone and in company, is used to farm traffic, and has seen a variety of environments. He’s good to catch, box, shoe, and clip.

He’d be a brilliant partner for someone looking to build confidence, enjoy low-pressure fun, or bring on a kind, uncomplicated cob with plenty of potential. He could easily turn his hoof to anything – from happy hacking to low-level competition, and everything in between.

Matty has no stable vices and is open to vetting. We’re happy to offer delivery anywhere in the UK and provide an exchange option if needed – though we’re pretty sure once you meet him, you’ll want to keep him around.
