Harley, a lovely rising 5-year-old skewbald mare standing just a fraction under 14.1hh, with a little more growing still to do. Harley is a real sweetheart — kind, friendly, and full of character — the sort of mare who wins your heart the moment you meet her. She’s beautifully marked, with a proper “leg in each corner” build, great bone, and a presence that makes her stand out wherever she goes. Harley is a very versatile and genuine little mare who takes everything in her stride and always tries her best to please.

Harley is a real pleasure to ride. She’s quiet, sensible, and easy, making her an ideal choice for a novice rider, a mother–daughter share, a riding school, or anyone looking for a fun, safe and willing all-rounder. She’s well schooled on the flat, with three balanced and rhythmical paces, and she’s happy to work forward without ever being strong or silly. She’s honest over her fences, enjoys her jumping, and has been schooled over coloured poles and cross-country fences — she takes every jump in her stride with a brave and straightforward attitude.

Out hacking, Harley is as good as gold. She goes out happily alone or in company, is excellent in traffic, and is used to all sorts of farm vehicles and country life. She’s the type of pony that gives her rider confidence, whether you’re popping down the lane, going for a gallop in the field, or out for a day’s hunting. Harley should also be ideal for all Pony Club activities — she’s the kind of pony you can truly have great fun with, no matter what you decide to do together.

She has an adorable, easy-going nature and is a pleasure to handle both on the ground and under saddle. Harley is good to shoe, box, catch, ride, and in traffic. She has no stable vices, is open to any vetting, and is ready now to find her next loving home.

Harley would suit a wide variety of riders — she’s steady, reliable, and fun, with all the right foundations in place to continue her education and go on to be a fantastic family or all-round pony.

The price includes delivery to your yard anywhere in the UK, and we offer an exchange if you’re not completely happy with her.

Scroll down to view her video and see what a delightful, kind, and genuine little mare she is. For more information or to arrange a viewing, please don’t hesitate to call me anytime on 00353 868077626 or email gertytynan@gmail.com.

Harley really is a special find — sweet, steady, and full of fun — the kind of mare everyone dreams of owning.

• 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.

PANDA 
Available with 28 day trial

13.1hh 10yo piebald cob mare.
Good conformation with smooth flowing paces.

Sweet natured no malice. Good to bath, load, travel, handle, farrier and vet. Can sometimes require a treat to be caught.
Loves attention and starting to soften and thoroughly enjoy cuddle time.

Ridden by all the kids, nervous and novice riders.
Snaffle mouthed. Doesn't get strong or silly. Reliable sort.
Hacks out alone or in company in front or behind. Good in heavy traffic never have to worry about little ones on board.
Forward but sensible ride, not whizzy just active paced. 1.5 type ride.

Pops a small jump honestly with kiddies. Will take the rider into the jump genuinely, all they need to do is steer. Very bold and willing little lady. Always comes home with a ribbon.
SJ & XC. Jumped 2'6ft with more capable jockeys.

Basic schooling but not yet been advanced as produced into a kids pony.

Has been out in group rides of 13 happy to be placed anywhere.
Been out competing SJ upto 50cm with first time jockeys and was absolutely brilliant. Came home with lots of 1sts!
Used for lessons for a variety of riders looking after them all.
Pleasure rides, never been spooky or silly away from home.
Beach she was brilliant swimming and cantering up and down with novice and nervous teens and kids.
XC schooling looked after nervous or novice jockeys and kept them safe. SJ schooling tried her little heart out popping everything.
Has also been hound exercise with 7yo child who has never hunted & she was amazing looking after him - as a mum I was able to breath (until he decided it was the best thing in the whole world and panda was awesome so he could go zooming off, weaving between horses, off chatting to people, jumping ditches & had no fear then I got a little nervous! But his massive rise in confidence was purely down to Pandas perfect behaviour).

Lovely little alrounder for someone to enjoy. Suit a child that is ready to go and have some fun independently and needs a pony to look after them.
