  • The Ultimate fun and safe hacking, fun rides and Hunting
  • Well schooled ready to go out at prelim now
  • Fun ride but always safe. Steady in the arena

Maisie has 3 lovely paces and has all basic schooling established. She has all the attributes to make a great dressage pony. She has a lovely soft mouth and is a leg on ride, not sharp or spooky . She has clean limbs and would also do very well showing.

Absolute diamond to hack alone or in company and with traffic, she really enjoys going out and exploring. Been autumn hunting and behaved perfectly and was in her absolute element forward but controllable and sensible. She was excellent with both the hounds and other horses getting close. Also done numerous fun/beach rides with young teenager. She is the most fantastic hunter/ fun ride/ beach ride horse or also competes dressage/showing.

Whilst she has a capable jump, Maisie does not enjoy her show jumping. She is happy to jump the occasional small fences in the arena and loves to pop fences out hunting/ fun rides, but show jumping isnt her love which is the reason for sale as young teenage rider wants to jump.

Maisie will be happiest in a home with lots of hacking and fun stuff rather than ridden in the arena everyday. Totally safe and a loving and kind mare who is easy to handle in all ways. Good to catch, shoe, clip. can take a few minutes to load but travels very well. Hoof wall tested and no previous injuries or vices

Excellent viewing facilities Newent GL181LR


Wanted Irish Draught for Light Hacking 5* Home

  • Mare or gelding
  • 5 * forever home
  • Lovely big stables, all year daily turnout, private home

Wanted Irish draught mare or gelding for light hacking and to be a companion to 18 year old ID mare.

This is an excellent forever home for the right horse who is easy to handle, good in traffic and is ready for a slower pace of life, daily turn out and light hacking a couple of times a week. Must be a nice character with good manners and turn out ideally with a mare. We do not partake in jumping, hunting or dressage.

My mare is a bit lame and arthritic so the friend needs to be happy not to have a job and be low lami risk as they will go out every day. No ongoing foot issues which will prevent being turned out every day in winter.

I am a lady in my fifties and have owned my mare since she was 6, now 18. References available.

Private home in the Forest of Bowland in Lancashire.

  • Mare
  • 16 years
  • 14hh / 143cm
  • Non-ridden companion pony
  • Happy to live out 24/7 or part stable
  • Good to handle

Hannah is a Highland pony who came into Blue Cross care in July 2026 and is now looking for a kind, understanding home as a companion. She has a very sweet nature and enjoys spending time with people, although she can be a little unsure at first and benefits from reassurance when being handled.

Hannah would thrive in a quiet environment with someone who can give her the time and patience she needs to build trust and form a strong bond. She can sometimes become overwhelmed by new experiences, but she is improving all the time and growing in confidence with gentle, consistent support. Hannah currently lives out 24/7 and happily mixes with both mares and geldings. She is also content to stable when she has company nearby.

As a good doer, she will require restricted grazing to help maintain a healthy weight. Hannah is sure to make a wonderful companion for someone willing to take things at her pace and enjoy watching her confidence continue to blossom.


Blue Cross Jazz

  • Very sweet personality
£400
  • Cob
  • Piebald
  • Mare
  • 3 years
  • 11.2hh / 117cm
  • Future children's project pony
  • Happy to live out 24/7 in a mixed herd
  • Very sweet personality

Jazz is a 3-year-old cob mare who is now ready to begin the search for her new home. She arrived to us as a transfer from the RSPCA and has been settling well into her routine while gradually building confidence.

She is a sweet-natured young pony, but she can be nervous at times, particularly in new situations, and will need a confident, calm, and sympathetic handler who can offer steady guidance and help her continue to develop trust. Jazz has already made good progress with her basic handling, yet she remains a young pony who will benefit from consistent, patient training.

Jazz would make a rewarding future project pony for someone experienced with youngsters, or she would be equally well suited as a lovely companion, especially for other young horses. She has been living happily in a mixed herd and enjoys the company of other equines.

She can live out or be part-stabled, provided she has appropriate companionship and a routine that supports her ongoing confidence building.

Jazz is a gentle soul with plenty of potential, and she is looking for a home that can offer her reassurance, structure, and the opportunity to continue growing into a confident, well-rounded pony.

Wilma is a lovely Irish Sport Horse mare who came into Blue Cross care in July 2026 due to a change in her owner's circumstances. Since arriving, she has been settling in well and showing great progress, with her confidence growing all the time. Wilma is looking for a companion home with someone who will continue to build her trust and help her develop at her own pace. She is good to lead, enjoys being groomed and is happy to have her feet picked up. We are currently working on improving her catching and helping her become more confident in new situations.

Wilma lives out 24/7 and happily shares her space in a mixed herd. She can also part stable, provided she has equine company nearby. As she is a good doer, she does require some grazing restriction to maintain a healthy weight. Wilma would make a rewarding project companion for someone who enjoys forming a close bond with their horse and supporting them as they continue to flourish.

Fern is a stunning young mare who came into Blue Cross care from the RSPCA in July 2026 and is now searching for a loving companion home. Friendly, curious and always keen to see what is going on, Fern enjoys the company of both people and other horses and would particularly love a home where she can continue to build her confidence through activities such as in-hand walks and agility.

As a youngster, she is still learning in all areas, but she is generally good to catch and lead, and can be tied up to be groomed, which she does enjoy. Fern is currently living out 24/7 in a mare herd and settles well with equine company. She could also part stable, provided she has company. She is currently working on her foot handling, as she can be a little unbalanced at times, but she is making steady progress

With her kind nature and eagerness to learn, Fern has all the ingredients to become a much-loved companion for someone willing to continue her education and enjoy helping her develop.

  • Non ridden companion
  • Good to handle

Based on our Home Direct scheme – West Midlands area

Meet Layla, a beautiful pony who is looking for a new home as a non-ridden companion.

Layla is a sweet mare who is very easy to handle, including being good to catch, lead, groom and have her picked out. She is extremely well mannered for the vet and the farrier, making her the perfect addition to any family

Due to Layla’s type she does require restricted grazing, so would suit a home with other ponies with similar grazing needs. Once settled we believe that Layla will stay alone for short periods of time, making her the perfect addition to a family with a ridden pony.

Can you offer Layla a loving home?

  • 9 years
  • 15.2hh / 158cm
  • Non-ridden companion horse
  • Happy to live out or part stable
  • Lives in a mixed herd

Agnes is a sweet-natured Irish Sports Horse who came into our care from a private owner in May 2026, due to a change in circumstances. She is a true gem to handle and is kind, cooperative, and easy in all aspects of her daily care, including catching, leading, grooming, picking out her feet, and standing well for both the vet and farrier.

Agnes is currently living out 24/7 in a mixed herd and settles happily in this environment, although she is equally content to be stabled for short periods when needed. She enjoys the company of other horses and thrives with equine companionship, so she will need a home where she has a consistent field companion at all times. Agnes maintains her condition well on moderate grazing and does not require overly restrictive management, making her an uncomplicated and enjoyable horse to care for.

Constance can be a little shy when you first meet her, so requires a calm and patient handler to give her time to get to know and trust her new handler. She is good to lead and groom and is progressing well in her leg handling.

Constance is currently living out 24/7 in a mixed herd. She can have moderate grazing for her type, making her the perfect addition to any herd.

Susie is available as a companion as she is no longer a riding pony. 

She doesn’t have any health problems but can bolt whilst being ridden hence the companion availability.

She is a good doer and is super easy to keep.


Reg. Sec. A, potential child's show/riding pony

  • Very well handled.
  • Oozes potential

  • Chestnut Roan
  • Mare
  • 6 years
  • 12hh / 122cm
  • Very pretty with 4 white socks.
  • Very well handled.
  • Oozes potential

12hh 6yo Welsh section A mare. Chestnut roan with 4 smart white socks, very sweet temperament. 

'Smidge' was professionally backed for me in January 2024 by Frankie Currell Hancox, but ridden very little since then. Handled daily, lunges regularly, and enjoys being groomed. 

Turned out with a gelding. Until recently was hacking out frequently, on the lead alongside a bigger horse (which is now lame), self-regulating her speed to keep up. 

Whilst she is a useful companion for my other two horses, I have no jockey for her and she is being wasted. I believe she will make a lovely M&M lead-rein pony (I train her in hand about 3 times per week), or just an all round child's pony. 

At the moment ideally suited to a family with a small adult or older child to bring her on over the summer for a younger child. I bought her in auction as a 3 year old. 

She has never had laminitis and does not have sweet-itch. Boxes easily, a little nervous with the farrier but she's improving and we always get the job done with an extra 5 minutes. 

A loving, knowledgeable home is sought. I'd love her to stay local and for the buyers to keep in touch. Llandeilo, SA19.

  • Welsh Section A

  • Mare
  • 9 years
  • 10.3hh / 110cm
  • Great Lead rein pony
  • Done showing and pony club

Lovely little lead rein pony, she has done showing, dressage, jumping and just finished pony club mini camp. Has been ridden off the lead rein by bigger children and is a super 2nd pony, ideal for a confident child to go out and have fun on.

Over a fence she is very sweet and does a small jump so as not to unseat her little jockey.

Mounted games she is very good and actually really quick, I could imagine she would be a fab games pony for an older child.

She is sensible and tolerant with fancy dress costumes.

Happy with her little rider doing round the worlds, climbing up and down, backwards riding etc.

we have not tapped into her full potential showing, she has lovely movement and excellent confirmation. She is registered Welsh pony and has great bloodlines, definitely has potential to go far in the show ring.

Very easy to keep, lives in or out, barefoot and good with farrier. Good to catch, bath and load.
