  • True to type section A
  • Excellent breeding and a top class lead rein and first ridden prospect
  • Lovely temperament, easily handled by a 3 year old child

Percy is 7 years old and by Glyncoch King Cai out of Plasderw Picabo. We bought him from the Friarly Stud as a 3 year old and had been in the same home since.

Percy has a lovely temperament and has easily been handled and led by a 3 year old child. He has been ridden both on and off lead rein, and is a straightforward ride. He is currently very low mileage due to lack of rider, but would excel as a lead rein show pony. He has been correctly started and is easy to long line and work from the ground.

He would also make a good ridden prospect for an older child. He is full brother to Friarly Pablo who has many wins in showing and dressage.

Percy is good to catch and handle, loads and travels easily and is good for the farrier. He is fully up to date with vaccinations and dentals.

Price includes a fitted saddle.
Sad sale due to lack of rider.

Lionswood The Duchess

Duchess is 13.3hh currently and is expected to make 14.1hh. She will be 4 at the end of June.

I bought Duchess as a 2 year old for her super temperament. I was told by the breeder she would make 15hh. Unfortunately she won't make that and to say I am gutted is an understatement. I need 15hh minimum as I struggle with a pony stride due to my MS.

For the last 16 months she has been trained using a mixture of natural horsemanship and positive reinforcement. But she does understand the word 'No'.

She is great with the farrier and the vet. She has had her wolf teeth removed and the vet commented on how good she was. She is up to date with teeth, worming and vaccinations.

She loads and travels well.
You can fully clip her, even the tickly bits.
She comes to call.
She lives in a herd of mares but has lived in a mixed herd no problem.

Sh does get sweet itch in the warmer weather but it is only mild and is easily controlled with sweet itch rugs and fly masks of which she has 2 of each and these will go with her to her new home.

Duchess is a completely unspoilt blank canvas ready to start her ridden journey, and maybe her showing career. I am just really sad it won't be with me.

Price negotiable for the right home.

BONDED PAIR

Sunshine and Dinky are a wonderful pair of geldings looking for a loving home together. Sunshine is a charming Welsh pony, and Dinky is a delightful little Shetland. The two have formed a close bond and would love a home where they are the only ponies in the home.

Dinky was late to be castrated, so their introductions were done carefully, and they’ve since become the best of friends. They’re now settled, happy, and inseparable. Both ponies are very easy to handle in all aspects – kind, polite, and a pleasure to have around.

Sunshine and Dinky would make perfect family ponies or lovely companions. They’re gentle, well-mannered, and full of character, bringing smiles to everyone who meets them. They deserve a home where they can stay together and continue their friendship in comfort and care.

Ryefield Lady Pippa (Taincwm Yolanda X Hilgarth Lucky Legend)

Rising 5 year old chestnut mare out of Taincwm Yolanda (Taincwm Welsh model X caerneuad hywel) and by royal Welsh ridden C champion and multi times hoys qualified Hillgarth Lucky Legend.

Lady is currently standing at 13hh

She was shown as a foal and yearling with success.
Lady was broken last year and ridden away in walk trot and canter. Super easy to do and a lovely willing attitude to anything asked of her.

Lady was turned away at the end of last year so is currently living out.

Due to work commitments and a lack of time she is tentatively looking for a loving 5 star home.

She has always been around children and I feel she would suit a family home/ Junior jockey or equally a lovely flat/worker pony for a small adult

Very sad sale and a 5 star home is essential for her.

Good to do in all ways up to date with all vaccinations.
