Gary 12.2hh 10 year old gelding

Gary is a super flashy and well put together Welsh section B pony. He is by Teilwood Trysor out of a Eyarth Rio mare. He is a real eye catching type

Gary is a very talented pony, with 3 lovely paces and a very scopey jump. He is ultra careful and very willing. He has competed up to 75cm, been cross country and rides sweetly on the flat making a nice shape.

He is not sharp at all and is very level headed. He’s got an extremely trainable brain, the world is his oyster and he really will go on to do anything! He would excel in working hunter, dressage, bsja and would also be a fantastic export for the USA hunter jumpers

This boy really deserves a 5 star home, he is the friendliest pony and always wants cuddles and kisses

  • 9 years

  • Been used as a companion pony
  • Kind natured

Very smart and correct registered Sec A mare, will make a wonderful all-rounder or ideal for showing. Also a brilliant companion.

Has never kicked or bitten, forward thinking attitude and says yes to everything we ask of her.

Lightly backed due to being used as a companion until last year. Long reining round fields and roads happily, has been ridden around the yard and hacked out in company and alone. Naturally works in a nice outline.

Requires food to catch her in a big field but fine in smaller areas and this has improved with regular and consistent work.

Vaccinated, up to date teeth, worming etc. Ready to go on and find a job now.

No novices, she is only recently backed and I have no doubt she will be an amazing kids pony with mileage but is not suitable for a wobbly unbalanced child yet. Ideal project for a small teenager, my 12yr old has done a lot of work with her and happily catches her, tacks her up and long reins and rides her.

Bridle and rugs available by separate negotiation.

Crannagh Boy (“Bobby”) – 14.2hh, 10 year old full Connemara gelding.

Bobby is a handsome, much loved pony who has been part of our family for nearly five years, taking his rider from age 13 to 17. He is now very sadly outgrown.

A genuine allrounder who enjoys a varied life, though Bobby particularly loves his jumping!

Over the past five years he has taken part in a wide range of activities including:

-Unaffiliated showjumping
-ODEs and dressage
-Beach and forest rides
-Regular clinics and arena hires

More recently, he has been based on a showjumping yard where he has focused on his jumping and loves it, very careful and rarely has a pole.

He would suit someone wanting to progress in BS (has no BS points), enjoy riding club activities, or even turn their hand to showing or hunting.

Bobby is easy to have around and well mannered on the ground:
- Good to shoe, clip, and load (lorry or trailer)
-Hacks alone or in company
- Sensible in traffic and around dogs

On the flat, Bobby can be a little tricky at times and benefits from a confident, consistent rider to get the best from him. For this reason, he would suit a competent teenager or small adult rather than a novice home.

He is a fun, kind pony with plenty to give, especially for someone who enjoys jumping and wants a genuine allround partner.

Sold with full tack and rugs.

  • 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.

Alfie has been a good alrounder for the last 2 years but unfortunately has been outgrown.

Alfie is forwards going but never naughty, him and his rider loved jumping so mainly did SJ and XC where they said he never stops is just keen for the job!

He has been a saint since arriving on my yard, there is room for improvement on his flat work however in 2 weeks I have seen big improvements so don’t think it would take long to tune him up!

Hacks alone or in company with all big scary traffic.

Easy to handle on the ground loves a fuss, never seen an ear back or raised leg. Travels on box or lorry.

A seriously eye-catching Connemara mare with all the attributes to make a top class competition pony. Standing at 13.2hh, she has outstanding presence, three correct flashy paces, and a naturally careful jump with plenty of scope.

Broken earlier this year and produced slowly and correctly. She has been jumping around a course showing great technique and attitude, and has taken everything in her stride.

Temperament

A very kind and genuine mare with a lovely nature:

13h 18 year old Bay Schoolmaster Gelding

Has done all Pony Club activities including;

Camp, showjumping, xc, games, dressage, team dressage, handy pony, fun rides, beach rides and hacking.

He is super reliable, though he will never be the fastest, he always jumps clear. He can do jump off turns and isn’t spooked or phased by any coloured poles or fillers. He’s been round loads of XC courses and doesn’t look twice at the jumps - will jump skinnies, brushes etc. He’s always in the ribbons at shows.

Hacks out alone or in company. Has been frequently ridden in a head collar and lead rope. Not phased by traffic, dogs, bikes or farm machinery. Can be ridden in an open field and he is safe.

Stands like a gent for farrier, dentist and vet.

An absolute gem in the stable and in hand. Handled by children most of the time. Doesn’t kick, bite, buck or rear. Snaffle mouth. No fancy tack required. Lives in or out (currently out 24/7 and has wintered out the last 2 winters).

Loads and travels like a dream. Will stand all day at shows tied to the box, in the box or ring side without any issues.

Very sad sale as hopelessly grown out of and no younger sibling to pass down to. 5 star home is essential. He has been such an amazing pony for my daughter who was on the verge of giving up before she got him. He will bring years of fun to his new person.

Comes with tack, boots and rugs.

118cm Dartmoor gelding. Harry had been a wonderful pony for my daughter but sadly she won’t stop growing so we’ve made the hard decision that he needs to find a new jockey to win sashes for.

Just missed qualifying for hoys last year by 1 mark at the last qualifier as we had only just collected him that week.

He knows his job well and thrives on it. Easily qualified RI and placed well in the few hoys he has done this year. He was 4th at hoys before we got him.

Never sick or sorry. No plugs or calmers. Great at big county shows in buzzy atmospheres.

He has won many sashes and supremes with us and would not be for sale if our daughter wasn’t as tall.

Queenie is a beautiful full up 13.2hh 4yo mare by popsters.

She has recently been professionally started under saddle and has taken to it like a dream. She has 3 balanced paces and is showing all the right signs of being a super pony for the future. She is bold and brave to a fence and has a super spring to her step. Hacks in all traffic alone and in company. She has been to a hand full of small shows, behaving impeccably in the busiest of warm ups.

Queenie is good as gold to do everything with, she happily loads and travels alone or in company. Handled often by children and has given the odd pony ride.

Queenie is looking for a knowledgeable home to continue to produce her into the super pony she is going to be. Due to her age, she can be green at times and therefore isn’t suitable for a novice home.

Queenie has been in the same home since a yearling, she has been well loved, but not spoiled. She is up to date with everything and ready to go. Only the best of homes will be considered.

'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.
