Bella – A Beautiful, Brave All-Rounder Bay Mare

5 Years Old | 13.2hh | Connemara X

Bella is a gorgeous 5-year-old bay mare standing at 13.2hh, and she truly ticks all the boxes. With her kind eyes, gentle nature, and calm, willing attitude, Bella is the sort of pony that’s hard to find—safe, sensible, and genuinely enjoyable in every way.

She has been ridden here by novice students and always goes quietly in a snaffle, responding patiently and kindly to her rider. Bella has a naturally balanced way of going and gives a real feeling of confidence in the saddle, making her an excellent choice for a novice rider, a riding school, or a family looking for a safe and fun pony to share. She’s especially well suited to a child moving up from a smaller pony who’s ready for something with more ability, but still needs that all-important safety and reliability.

Despite her age, Bella already has a wealth of experience. She has been out hunting, taken part in hunter trials, completed charity rides, and attended pony club with a young rider. She’s seen plenty of the world already and always handles new situations with a level-headed attitude. Bella absolutely loves her cross-country work and is a brave, genuine partner who never hesitates or overreacts. She takes everything in her stride and always looks after her rider.

When it comes to jumping, Bella gives her rider confidence and is incredibly honest. She’s been jumping up to 90cm here with ease and definitely has the ability to do more. She’s careful and willing, always trying her best without ever being sharp or silly. Whether you’re popping over small fences or looking to progress with a capable competition pony, Bella makes it all feel easy.

In the yard, Bella is a complete sweetheart. She is easy to catch, great to shoe and clip, loads happily, and settles well into any routine. She is used to farm machinery, heavy traffic, and all the usual commotion of a busy yard, and she handles everything with quiet confidence. Her friendly personality and steady nature make her a true favourite with everyone who meets her.

Bella would suit a wide range of homes, whether you’re after a first competition pony, a genuine family friend, or a young pony to bring on without the drama. She has no stable vices, is open to any vetting, and is as genuine as they come.

Delivery within the UK is included in the price, and we offer an exchange if she’s not the right fit for you.

To find out more or to arrange a viewing, feel free to call me on 00353868077626 or email gertytynan@gmail.com.

For sale, 13.2 Welsh C, 15 yo. A very sad sale for a much-loved special mare.

Indy is an absolute all-rounder that will bring any child on. She is handled and ridden by my 10yo daughter. We bought Indy to regain my daughter’s confidence and she has done just that.

Indy is a safe and steady hack- happy to go alone, first/last in a group or be led from ground or another horse. Indy also loves to jump. She regularly jumps 80cm when training and competes at 70cm. She has an amazing jump and will try her hardest to please. She will step up or down a gear depending on the rider.

Great in open spaces, moors, fun rides. Will happily tie up for hours, great with the farrier, vet, traffic, loading, teeth and clipping. Indy can pull faces, often due to her season and throw the very rare, excited buck, but these are easily sat and never with the intention to get the rider off. Indy will conuinue to thrive with a varied life style, not confined to just schooling.

Reason for sale is due to my daughter having two 13.2s and not enough time to do them both justice.

5 star home only, sadly will not be sold to a novice home. Based in Devon.

He has a soft snaffle mouth and a laid-back, unflappable nature, making him an ideal step-up pony for children moving off smaller ponies, a safe and fun option for a mother-daughter share, or a brilliant choice for novice riders or those returning to the saddle. He would also make a valuable addition to any riding school looking for a quiet, reliable mount.

In terms of performance, Miles is confidently jumping up to 90cm with ease and has plenty of scope to progress further. He is honest and straightforward to a fence and never says no. Out cross-country, he is brave, balanced, and incredibly easy to ride, showing all the qualities of a genuine all-rounder with the potential to shine in any discipline.

One of Miles’ greatest assets is his quiet temperament. He hacks out happily both alone and in company, is completely unbothered by traffic or open spaces, and takes everything in his stride. He is easy to shoe, catch, box, clip, and handle in every way, with no stable vices or quirks. His kind and trustworthy nature makes him a true pleasure to have on the yard.

My gorgeous girl is only available as I start university in September and need to downsize on commitments, I got her straight from the Breeder as a yearling and still keep in contact with them so all her history is known.

She is a real sweetie and loves to be groomed, doesnt care about sprays etc which are definitely needed with her thick mane and tail.

She is a beautiful girl inside and out and my aim was to be out competing this year but have not had the time, hence me making this extremely tough decision to trust someone with her.

Up to date with everything.

Contract and insurance must be in place and references wanted.

If you feel you would be suitable please send me a message with a bit about yourselves.

Loads of videos.

Super 12hh (rides more like 11.2 as she has a big wither) reg sec A palomino mare 17yrs
Has done:

Bs schools 60
NSEA SJ 50/60
Unaff Sj, ODE, HT
Pc games/camp
Full season of PC pony racing which she excelled at!
Excellent hack alone/company
Been super successful Cotswold Cup (70) in previous home.

Solid to shoe, bath, travel clip and has been a mega pony for us… she taught Coco how to really ride. She’s not for a “fluffy” child and needs a child who wants it. Typical Welsh and can be “looky” but never acts on it.

Can be strong to hunt and galloping in groups as likes to be first and win! Won’t jump around 70cm without a serious push so she’s not suitable for a SJ home or a first pony, but a definite 1.5 pony! Would be a great PC/hack/race/games.

Never reared, bucked or spun, but can nash her teeth when tacked up and is a typical mare to groom (hates the fuss!) we just hose her and she’s fine. To clip you just need to get on with it as once the clippers are on her she’s fine… just likes to fall apart when they are first turned on.

Just had new shoes, vaccines and teeth done
Was scoped for ulcers and she’s negative so it’s just she’s sensitive to tack up.

Turns out alone or in company

Home is priority

I’ve personally known/ followed this combination and it’s fair the say when the child got her she was coming off of a FYFR golden saint of a Shetland. Child was tiny and only had trust/ confidence in that Shetland. So this pony really had to hold her hand while she found her feet and stepped up.

“Currently happy hacking only”

Frank is currently hacking happily alone or in company. 

Frank loves hacking and has been great with any traffic we have met on him.

Frank came to us confused and pulled out of his old routine he has now completely settled and happy.

He needs 121 and a good routine to bring him on further, he seems pretty clueless in school we’ve taken him in there walk trotted round but his very slow and stubborn.

Unfortunately with over 20 horses in I just don’t have the time he deserves or needs to bring him on in the school. 

But we have been hacking him a few times a week and think he would love this life.

Can only show him hacking.

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.

  • Amazing, fun chap who wants to please and handled by children
  • Won a Showjumping class 70cm a few weeks ago
  • The cutest boy
The cutest 12.1hhish pony in Town. Haribo is made of a whole load of cuteness. He loves a fuss and is brilliant around kids. Haribo has been to pony club rallies, indoors, outdoors and in big open fields and always behaved beautifully. I have millions of vidoes I can send of him in big open spaces and arenas etc with others and in his own so please WhatsApp me and I can send them all.

He won his 70cm SJ class and has attended local shows and just a super kind, chilled pony. He has jumped lots of spooky SJ courses with lots of spooky fillers and is super sweet.

He isn't a plod but also he hasn't got fast gears. He goes into a lovely canter when asked and can be slow but with a kick he is faster so he is great but he will go faster if asked but isn't a speedy / whizzy pony, however if really kicked on he is quite the jump off pony being super competitive and turns well. His instinct though is to come to a trot rather than get faster and will trot after fences if asked.

Stands for hours if kids are stood talking etc on the ponies and isn't a fidget.

He is ridden and handled by my 9 year old daughter but she is super tall so well over height on him. Haribo loves his hacking and doesn't get strong or silly and canters nicely in open spaces going through water as well.

He is always ridden in a snaffle and has never bucked, reared or napped. He also has had tiny tots on the lead rein and is a saint. He has an older head on young shoulders as he is 5 but has no bad habits to correct and always been ridden and handled by kids.

He is for sale as my daughter is far too tall on him as you can see in the photos. Our friends kids have been riding him also and they have been having a lot of fun on him doing lead rein to jumping full courses so he has had different little kids on board and always behaved beautifully.

He really is a cool dude and he loads and travels really well. He is often on the school run in the trailer if we are off to a rally or lesson and stands beautifully. My daughter loads him and does everything with him.

He is super cheap to keep as lives off fresh air and has good strong bare feet as ponies should. He stands for the farrier to trim him beautifully.

Really sad sale and home is important so he can carry on seeing the world as he is a real gem and a very calm, kind pony.

No vices and never been sick or sorry

Hunter – 4yo 14.2hh Connemara Gelding (March 2021)

Hunter is a full-up 14.2hh, traditionally built Connemara with the most genuine and sweet temperament. Although turned 4 this year in March, he has the brain of an older, wiser horse – truly an old head on young shoulders.

We’ve owned Hunter since he was an unhandled 2-year-old, and he’s been quietly and kindly produced here. Lightly backed as a 3-year-old last summer, he was turned away over winter and brought back into work this spring.

He’s been schooling beautifully, hacking out confidently both alone and in company, attended a Pony Club rally, and just completed his first cross-country schooling outing – all with bravery and honesty.

Hunter is a firm favourite on the yard. He’s easy to do, never strong, and has been ridden by our 11-year-old daughter both in the school and out hacking.

He’s a joy to have around and adores being fussed and pampered.

Full-up 14.2hh Connemara gelding

Rides alone or in company

Good to hack, school, load, travel, tack up, and pick out feet

Lives out 24/7 or happy to be stabled

Barefoot and good with the farrier

HWSD: N/N

Up to date with vaccinations

Handled daily by children

Hunter is ready to continue his education and would suit a competent child, small teen, or adult looking for a quality, genuine Connemara with a great start and a lovely nature.

14.2hh 18 years young purebred Connemara Schoolmistress pony with excellent bloodlines

Missy is the ultimate competition and hunting pony She is extremely experienced has a heart of gold and is very fun.

Absolutely loves to jump and always looks after her passenger. Never stops or refuses and is a pleasure to take out to shows and events, she is forward going and a rossette winner and therefore isn’t suited to a very nervous or novice rider because she knows her job and loves to win. She will turn on a sixpence. Although she has no BS points, she would be a super competitive BS pony .

She rides in a snaffle or bubble bit in all spheres including when out hunting where she has been a regular member of the Killinick Harriers hunt and the pony club.

She has done all pony club activities, eventing and Hunter trials aswell as showjumping teams at 80cm- 1m. She is also an asset to the inter school teams.

She is well behaved in open spaces and very good in traffic, around other animals and farm machinery.

She is the ultimate competition/ hunting pony and pony club pony . She will also ride and lead. Although she is forward to jump etc, my grandmother could take her hacking, she is a completely different pony. Happy to plod along on the buckle and completely unfazed by all spooky obstacles.

Missy rides well in the school with athletic paces and good balance but is not a dressage.

No vices and open to any inspection
