Lucy is a beautiful rising 11yo Welsh D mare standing at approx 14.1hh.

She has recently come back into work after a winter break and is now looking for a new place to call home. She is super fun and will make someone very happy. It won’t take her long to build up a bit more fitness to go out and enjoy the summer season

She is good to catch, load, travel and with farrier etc. up to date with all her jabs. Hacks alone and in company unphased by traffic. She goes sweetly on the flat and loves to jump. Not bothered by fillers, water trays or anything in between. She has been out and competed with competitive teenagers and done really well and I would love to see her continue to do this with her next rider.

Shes a cracking pony and someone is going to have so much fun with her. A long term loving home is a must for this fantastic pony.

Exceptionally talented competition pony

Alana is a super talented 146.8cm competition pony, who I have owned from a yearling and so know her entire history.

Alana has done a bit of everything with us, but I believe showjumping is where she is most competitive. She has showjumped double clear up to senior newcomers (110/115), and had countless double clears at 100/105cm. She is the most careful pony I have ever ridden and will always help her rider out of a tricky spot. She is not strong and has an lovely even rhythm around every course she jumps, whilst remaining quick and easy to adjust. I fully believe that Alana would step up to jump bigger classes and is ready to begin this journey with a junior. Alana is an out and out competition pony who wants to jump clear for her rider.

Alana also has multiple double clears up to BE100, although is not consistent XC in a competitive environment. Whilst I don't believe eventing is her path, she is an absolute weapon XC schooling, and would enjoy this with her new rider (and definitely put a big smile on their face!). Alana has also won dressage at every level as far as elementary, with scores above 70%. She has established medium paces, counter canter, lateral work ect ect.

She is perfect to hack in open spaces and bridlepaths, alone/in company. Hacking on roads takes a little bit of knowing her; she is good in company and fine with cars, bikes ect but not great with large machinery. The only thing she will not tolerate is cows! However, she loves learning and engaging her brain in the arena so will never go sour if your hacking isn't perfect for her.

She is perfect for farrier, dentist, load, travel, clip ect ect. She is the kindest, friendliest pony, and not at all mareish, but equally an out and out competition pony who would thrive off a competitive home.

I love her to bits but I would just like to event myself, and believe she could go very far with a good junior, so would like to give her that chance. Ideally, Alana would go to a junior with competitive jumping goals as she really is a top class pony, eager to learn and ready to go make a name for herself.

Sire- Lightening Star

Freddie is a traditional Connie with a fantastic stamp. A real eye catcher with quality breeding.

At 4 years old he's got the breeding, the rideabilty and the attitude / temperament to make him a future star. He has 3 mega balanced paces, will hack alone or in company. Up front or behind.

He loves to please and loves his job already. He is super straightforward and easy going. Not too forward but not a doddle either.

Over the last few months we have introduced so many firsts for Freddie however have taken it super slow with him allowing him to also have several weeks off in the field to process. He has taken on his first hound exercise where he behaved impeccably, his first showjumping round, a trip to the gallops and his first XC outing.

He's ready for someone to put there stamp on and enjoy. He would make the perfect pony club pony or eventing pony for an ambitious young rider.

Meet splash 4 year old 14hh Irish cob. Splash has the look at me factor with his striking four white socks. He has done a bit of everything, jumping, hacking, cross country this was when he was in Ireland. Splash is a machine out hacking goes first or last.

He is green in the school but this is due to his age and due to never doing it before he come to us. However he does have a willing attitude and willing to learn. Splash does need someone who is confident, kind but also sturn at the same time so that he is able to learn.

We believe when splash finds his person and then they get to know each other they will be unstoppable in any discipline that maybe.

This little mare should make 14.2/15hh. She has been well handled and is good for the farrier. Wears rugs which I change on her in the field with no headcollar.

She is bright and intelligent with three correct paces and good ground cover.

Her full sister is competing BE 105. I bought her from the breeder at weaning. Absolutely heartbreaking sale due to a change in family circumstances.

I will be prepared to sell her at a competitive price to the right home. No novices please.

Broken last year he was turned away over the winter to mature and brought back in to work end of January. Since then he has been showjumping, jumping fillers and full courses, a flat showing clinic with a ride judge and arena eventing, which he loved.

This little horse is still very green and a long way off being the full package but he has taken on every challenge with enthusiasm and a willing attitude.

He is now ready for an experienced and competent person to continue his education.

Please no novices, he is a forward thinking fun cob who still needs guidance and his hand holding.

He will make a fantastic working show cob along with lots of potential in so many areas.

Beautiful 148 showjumper for sale

Extremely sad sale due to my daughter being on her last year of ponies and being too tall for ponies now.

Pluto is a loveable little pocket rocket! He has scope to burn. Very neat technique over the jumps. He’s been there done that all over England and Ireland.

He has a forward jump so wouldn’t suit a novice rider.

His flat work is second to none and he would make a beautiful dressage pony. He has done a bit of XC which he loved and loves days out in the forest or at the beach.

Has done PC camp and loved it

Hacks alone or in company and isn’t phased by heavy machinery, Lorrie’s etc
Good in all ways to shoe, clip, load on lorry

5 star home only as he’s a very special pony

Caramel is a 13.1 hand new forest mare. I brought her from the forest in October as a project and have backed and produced her to where she is now!

She is super safe doesn’t buck, rear, bolt!

She’s very forward and can have a spook every now and again so definitely NOT a first pony but would be an ideal second pony for a little kid for them to have fun on.

She’s good to hack and will hack alone and in company. Happy to lead or go behind in a group. Safe to canter out and never bolts.
Schooling she has three nice paces and really enjoys her schooling!

Jumping she is a bit more green as I have focused on her flat work and pole work rather than jumping! But does pop a jump nicely!

She has been ridden by children and is still the same for them!

She is good to clip and for the farrier.

She’s up to date with:

Wanted genuine, safe horse for 10*, knowledgeable, forever home

  • 10* forever home on a beautiful private gated estate in Central Scotland
  • Mare or gelding aged between 5 and 12 years, 15.2hh plus

I am looking for a genuine horse to offer a 10* forever home on a beautiful private gated estate in Central Scotland, with excellent stabling, grazing, and endless hacking. This horse will join my much-loved horse of 20 years, along with my hunter who has sadly been prematurely medically retired, so a knowledgeable, caring, and experienced home is guaranteed.

References can happily be provided.

I am ideally looking for a mare or gelding aged between 5 and 12 years, 15.2hh plus, and no greys, cobs, or arabs please. I have extensive hacking, so must be good in traffic, non-spooky and no nappers, buckers, rearers please. I like really forward going horses, so something that is forward thinking and well-schooled would be ideal

Temperament is very important, so the horse must be kind and easy to handle on the ground and good to clip, shoe, catch, and load. I am looking for a horse with a nice attitude and willing nature, that is straightforward to work with and enjoys its job. I do not jump, so it does not matter whether the horse jumps or not.

I have previously competed in RIHS and HOYS qualifiers and so would like something smart and mannerly that will go in a nice outline. I do not mind a horse that has been retired from the show ring and looking for a quieter life or a change of direction. Happy for superficial blemishes but no health conditions/previous injuries please.

Any potential horse will need to pass a vetting and must have no stable vices - no cribbers/windsuckers please!

Based in central Scotland so sensible distances please but willing to travel for the right horse.

Please email in the first instance with full details and photos would be a plus.

As I do not sell on, no silly prices please.

A sort hard to find!! The most beautiful 5yo True to type Connemara. He has it all; presence, quality and performance with the most genuine, kind temperament.

Barney is a classy 14hh pony with correct conformation; plenty of bone, a superb front and beautiful length of rein and mega mover. There is a long list of classes he is Eligible for from Novices, the most dreamy Junior pony and a future WHP or event pony no doubt he’ll top the lot!

Barney has three correct, expressive paces a lovely way of going, working rhythmically in a balanced, uphill frame giving a lovely mannerly ride.

Barney has been in the same home on the farm since a yearling, where he has been allowed to mature naturally living out in a small herd. He was professionally broken as a 3-year-old, produced slowly and correctly, with his future in mind he has since continued his education with professional schooling, mixed with plenty of hacking.

He is well accustomed to busy farm life including large machinery and livestock, and is regularly hacked across open fields. Barney is sensible, straightforward and excellent in traffic, proving to have a very level head- all the kids have ridden and hacked him out.

Barney has a lovely way of going, working rhythmically in a balanced, uphill frame giving a lovely mannerly ride. He has attended arena hires and cross-country schooling, always showing a brave, willing attitude to his work and particularly aptitude for jumping. He’s both brave and talented over a fence having seen most filler trays, bridges etc. He has the education foundations set and is fit and ready to go and be someone’s pony of a lifetime.

Results to date include:
• 1st BSPS Summer Stakes 2025 – first outing
• Recently competed in Winter Worker Stakes 70cm & 80cm, just an unlucky pole keeping him from top placings. He received excellent marks and has been widely admired by judges and fellow competitors alike.

This is a sad sale due to lack of time of a genuine, beautifully produced young pony with all the attributes for a very exciting future.

Absolutely no time waster or joyriders as we simply do not have the time.

We bought Rory as a 4 year old to bring on as a fun hack and do some low level jumping and dressage. This is a totally honest advert so here are his good points:

He is as close to bombproof as it is possible to be on the roads and on our busy livestock and arable farm
He gets on with other horses and goes out with mares and geldings
He is happy living in or out
He comes to call from the field and walks beside you to his stable with no headcollar. Anyone could handle him safely, he is so kind and cuddly.
He is never sick or sorry
He loads and travels beautifully and I can take him to shows and clinics on my own with no problems
He is perfect for the farrier and is barefoot with great feet
He will hack well on his own or with others. We live next to a busy airbase and on a farm so he is not bothered by planes, helicpoters, lorries, tractors or farm animals
He works in a nice outline and has been out to local dressage shows - most recently scoring 63% in Intro 3
He loves children and has been ridden by novices out hacking and in the school
He loves people and loves a fuss, comes to call from the field
He stands nicely for you to get on
He loves being groomed
You can leave him in the field for a month and he is no different when you get back on. He has never bucked or reared. He is currently fit and in work. He is N/N for HWSD.

Here are his not so good points
He is fidgety to clip. This year I managed to clip his neck and belly on my own without sedation. Last year we sedated him to do a full clip
He can get strong in the school in canter and when jumping
He sometimes gets nervous under saddle, mainly in the school and can shoot forward - this is fine if you are a competent rider but he has made me nervous too. For this reason we will only sell him to a home with a confident competent rider to work with him.
He needs more consistent work on his jumping (he loves it though)
He is quieter out hacking than he is in the school - this could be a good point or a bad point!

We are very fond of him but my daughter has moved on to horses and is working away and I would like something a little more straightforward. He will only go to a lovely home. We are on the Gloucestershire/Wiltshire/Oxfordshire border.

Thor- 14.2hh 4yo full Class 1 Connemara gelding. This pony is an absolute cracker I don’t have a bad word to say about him!

He’s an absolute delight to handle in every way will stand loose to be clipped and shod, loads himself onto the box and has perfect manners all round.

He’s been professionally schooled on the flat- Carries himself beautifully, has 3 fab paces, great transitions and very balanced. He’s been to regular showjumping lessons and arena hires, confidently jumping round a 90 course no filler is too scary, he’ll give anything a go and won’t stop he’d rather take a miss and help you out with a little trot stride!

He went to his first competition yesterday and took everything in his stride, jumped two lovely rounds and was in the rosettes for both classes! He’s been XC schooling and jumped everything he was pointed at- ditches, water, steps, he’s very clever and able to work combinations out quickly and is also a complete snaffle mouth never gets silly or buzzy even in open spaces.

He’s hacks alone or in company and is good in traffic and is well used to heavy farm machinery. I’m a big fan of this pony he’s not been rushed he’s been slowly and carefully produced over the last year and I really believe he’s a proper competition pony with the right little jockey.

He is super safe would never buck rear or bolt but please no nervous or novice riders as he’s still only young himself
