Not to be Missed! The Perfect All Rounder Pony Club Pony


Ref #: 386079

  • Fantastic All Rounder
  • Good to Do in All Ways
  • School Mistress ready to get on with her job with her next rider

With a heavy heart we are looking for a new 5* home for this awesome pony.

Mitchelcombe Banoffee Pie - Bonnie is a 13.2 Welsh Cob x Dartmoor

We’ve owned Bonnie for almost 2yrs and would absolutely not be looking for anything else if my daughter hadn’t grown out of her.

She schools well, has been to arena hires, XC and SJ and can turn her hoof to dressage, though it’s something my daughter is only just taking an interest in. She has done all PC activities and did Pony camp this summer and really showed what she’s capable of.

Bonnie has been out on hound exercises. She loves a job and loves to jump. She is well mannered on the ground and can live in or out but I would say she prefers out or a mix of the two. She can pull a face when you do her girth but she is just letting you know it’s not her favourite thing.

She hacks alone or in company, great in heavy traffic ,farm machinery etc
She’s great for the farrier, dentist, physio and happy to be clipped, can occasionally be reluctant to load but we have used a lunge line around her bum and she then loads straight away (we also give her a treat once she is on which helps).

Bonnie is up to date with everything. She’s had a new saddle while we’ve had her with regular checks and was recently fitted with a new bit and bridle. She is snaffle mouthed, can be strong at times but never dangerous. She is the perfect pony for someone that is a brave, confident rider who will push her to do what she loves, anyone who has this pony will be very lucky to have her.

This is a super sad sale so no time wasters, extra videos can be sent on request .

Price to include full tack and wardrobe

Very sad sale and only available after London (21st December).

Qualified for HOYS Junior 122 cradlestakes 2025.

Chance
16-year-old mare, 14.2hh

Chance is a forward-going, fun, and speedy pony who knows her job and loves to work. She has brakes but can be strong, so she's not suitable for a novice rider. That said, she is an absolute sweetheart on the ground – kind, affectionate, and a real pleasure to have around the yard.

We've had some amazing times with Chance and she will be very much missed. However, at 16, we feel she now deserves a more varied, lower-level home where she can enjoy all-round activities rather than focusing solely on jumping.

She has mainly competed in BS showjumping with us and her previous owner, but also adores cross-country, arena eventing, hacking, and fun rides. She hacks alone or in company, happily goes first or last, and is completely unbothered.

Up to date with teeth, vaccinations, physio, etc.

Great with the farrier, breeze to clip, loads and travels beautifully, and will stand quietly on the lorry.

This is a very special pony, and finding the right home is our top priority – all homes will be vetted.

Abano needs little introduction to the SJ world where he has had a very successful career in Belgium before coming to the UK in 2024 where he taught a young girl up through the heights.

He is a true schoolmaster for someone wanting to jump in the Gold League classes but also straight forward enough for a young child to introduce to showjumping and teach them up through the heights.

He has manners to die for and works beautifully on the flat. Loves his hacking and is never silly or strong.

Much loved Zipporah. Well bred TB x Cob, bay mare. 14hh. 18 years . Fit and well.

Homebred from West Kington Stud where she spent 16 years before coming to us. Professionally produced and given a start to numerous children at pony club, local competitions etc. Been with us for just over 2 years, Zippy has taught my daughter how to ride a forward going pony with a powerful jump. My daughter now wants to compete at a higher level and is asking more of Zippy than she wants to do.

Zippy is comfortable popping round 60 competitively and placed first last weekend in local competition, a fast, bold round. Enjoyed the chase me charlie at Badminton Show in August, going out above 90. Does jump well in training clinics (70/80) and is very clever with her footwork.

Done all things pony club, qualified for regionals in pc dressage this year and could improve further with a rider focussed on this discipline, believe she could do well.

Fit and well. Loves fuss and attention, very sweet nature.

Good to hack, shoe, box, clip, no vices

Not a first pony and not suitable for hunting, as gets extremely excited with anything hunting related.

Seeking kind and knowledgeable long term home, loves fuss and attention. This is the most important factor, and we will wish to visit new home. Love Zippy lots, she is too good to stand in the field, and we want to find her the right new rider/ family to form a great partnership for all to enjoy.

Lots of photos and videos to share. Very recent photos below.

Price includes some tack and rugs.

Our perfect girl is looking for a new little girl to bring up the levels

Stunning 12.2 19yo (rides like a 10yo) Dutch mare imported by us 5 years ago.

Kitty has successfully taken my daughter from bottom hole xpoles to winning bs 80 and unaffiliated 90. I trust her with my life and my daughter jumps her saddle less and bridleless, takes her hacking around the farm, including galloping around the fields and hacking down the road. She is a cross country machine and jumps everything you put in front of her.

She has won chase me Charlie clearing 120 with my daughter. When Bellas friends who dont ride come over, she bumbles around the school with them on and off the lead. She will go forward off the littlest of legs and will fill her new jockey with so much confidence to go out and succeed. She is lovely on the flat and will go in an outline for a more established rider. She has done everything with my daughter.

She is perfect to load and will stand on the lorry all day. She loves a fuss and to be brushed a pampered, she really is a total dream. Although we arent in the pony club she has done pony club shows etc and loves to do games. She is perfect in open spaces.

Never sick or sorry and has never needed the vet since weve owned her.

Only the best of homes need apply, this is a heartbreaking sale as she is wasted now because she is hopelessly outgrown. Will not be sold to a purely showjumping home as she loves and deserves a varied life.

Only for sale as I no longer ride/compete so feel as if she’s just completely wasted and she is ready to give someone as much joy as she has me.

Rayne is not a novice ride so no beginners / joy riders she’s your typical competition pony and wants to be busy - not one you’ll just happy hack about on she needs a job.

She’s been out of work due to me not riding and starting my a levels , so she’s unfit and needs bringing back into full competition work - she won’t take much she knows what to do
Comes with all tack

This is heartbreaking enough so no time wasters .

Jemima – 13.2hh New Forest Mare 

After two wonderful years Jemima has very sadly been outgrown (we had hoped it would be longer but alas my son is growing like a weed!) We are now seeking a five-star, loving home for this very special pony, where she will want for nothing.

Jemima is a 16-year-old (2009), 13.2hh dark bay registered New Forest mare. She would make a fantastic second pony for a confident rider who enjoys a forward, fun ride.

She’s a genuine all-rounder with heaps of experience at pony club, riding club, camps, stay-away shows, and family holidays. We haven’t done much dressage – it’s not really my sons thing, but plenty of SJ, XC, arena eventing, barrel racing, and a little mounted games etc. She has also hunted in a previous home. Jemima is happiest popping around courses of 60–75cm with great success. She will jump bigger at home but may struggle with the spreads on 80cm+ in competition (venue dependant). She doesn’t need to be ridden every day and is the same whether ridden once or 5 times a week. That said, Jemima loves an active varied life and would be wasted in a field being a happy hacker at weekends.

2025 Highlights
Horsford & District Riding Club 2025 league
• 70cm SJ League - 2nd
• Junior Barrels Fastest Run of the season
• Junior Barrels - 1st
• Open Game - 1st
• Overall Barrel Points - 1st
Other 2025 highlights also include attending the Pony Club Barrier Animal Health Spring Festival Arena Eventing champs, also qualifying for the BRC Winter Novice SJ Champs (taking place next Spring).

2024 Highlights:

Sunshine Tour Championships (huge classes of approx 65 competitors)
• Supreme Champ 50/55 – 1st & 3rd
• 55cm – 5th & 5th
• 60cm – 4th
• 65cm – 3rd & 9th
• Supreme Champ 60/65 – 4th
• Jumped 9 rounds across the weekend – 8 clear!

Horsford & District Riding Club 2024 league
• Overall Junior Points Winner
• Junior Barrels Fastest Run of the Season
• Junior Barrels – 2nd
• Open Games – 2nd
• 55cm Speed Stakes SJ League – 3rd
• 60cm SJ League – 5th
• 70cm SJ League – 6th

On the ground, Jemima is an absolute sweetheart – easy to catch, groom, tack up, lead, shoe (happy barefoot or shod), and she travels well in both lorry (3.5t & 7.5t) and trailer. She is equally happy to live out or be stabled. Vaccinations and dental are up to date (due Jan 2026). She requires sedation for clipping and may occasionally pull a face when her girth is tightened – but she has no vices, she does not rear, kick, bite or buck.

She is safe in open spaces – although keen and forward. If your child is frightened of speed she's not the pony for you! Jemima is excellent to hack both alone and in company, and is used to heavy village traffic including buses, lorries, tractors and more, making her a truly reliable partner.

She comes with her saddle, 2 bridles, and an extensive collection of rugs & boots.

  • Patient, polite, and beautifully mannered
This is a truly heartbreaking sale and something I never imagined I would have to do but due to a change in circumstances, it has become necessary to find this lovely boy a new home.

Sunny is exceptionally well behaved for the farrier, dentist, vet, and physio, and loads without any fuss. He is patient, polite, and beautifully mannered. He is more than happy to stand on the yard all day being pampered.

He hacks alone or in company, confidently going first or last, and is safe in open spaces as well as on the busiest of roads. He goes in a snaffle at all times.

Sunny jumps comfortably up to 90cm and is bold and honest. He has never stopped and will always help you out with a stride. He is well schooled, has a lovely light mouth, and consistently produces a smart test.

His nature is truly sweet, he is never nasty and always aims to please. His only vice is that he requires light sedation for clipping, as it makes him a little nervous.

He would suit a small adult or a confident child. For his full potential to be reached he is not suitable for a complete beginner. I would love to see him go to a forever home where he will be cherished.

I am in no rush to sell and he will only be allowed to go to a genuine 10* home. All prospective homes will be vetted.

As a new mum with a young baby, I unfortunately don’t have time for time-wasters—serious enquiries only, please.

Thistledown Arctic Monkey is a truly exceptional children’s pony. A 14-year-old Welsh Section B gelding, Monkey has made so many dreams come true, but it is now sadly time for him to go and teach his next young rider the ropes.

He is straightforward, kind, beautifully mannered and will give even the smallest, most nervous jockey total confidence — even in the busiest of rings.

Many people will remember Monkey at HOYS 2023, when my daughter decided to stand on him and salute because she didn’t want the judge getting bored seeing the same show as everyone else! Monkey stood like a rock, as he always does — the perfect example of the saintly temperament he is known for.

He has qualified for HOYS and RI eight times, competing in the Lead Rein, First Ridden and 122 SHP classes. Monkey has too many wins to mention them all, but his record includes:

Monkey is the pony every family wishes they had. He hacks for hours alone or in company, attends Pony Club and loves every minute. He’s always the first to greet you at the gate, and he is easy whether picked up, put down, ridden daily or left a few weeks — he simply fits into family life and makes everything easy and fun.

He can be fully cared for by children without a second thought. He will stand for hours to be groomed, bathed, tacked up, and is even clipped by my 13-year-old daughter. He’s frequently involved in TikToks, makeovers, brushing sessions and being turned into a unicorn! Even the non-horsey grandparents can lead him in and out, hold him at shows and take him for a little walk while the girls ride.

He is honestly the happiest, friendliest, most people-loving pony we’ve ever known — you cannot help but fall in love instantly.

Monkey has no vices — he does not nap, rear, buck, etc. However, he would eat himself to death if given half a chance! He has had laminitis in the past so he needs a family who can help him make good life choices. This is totally manageable with a simple routine (basically he’s not allowed on the big field (10acres) when the grass is at its sweetest but we are very happy to discuss this.

Monkey is truly a family favourite and this is a heartbreaking sale. He is ready to go and make another child’s dreams come true, just as he has done for ours.

5* knowledgeable home essential.

Available after London.

This pony can take a young rider very quickly to Elementary Level or beyond! Absolutely super training companion. Does lateral work in canter, ready for pirouttes and single changes, very easy to collect, excellent canter work and subtlety.

Has competed National Pony Classes on Elementary Level in Finland and just before we moved to UK got an invitation to train with the National Pony Team.

He has a huge heart and is easy to handle. Has always lived next to mares and young stock. You can walk him past mares along the stable corridor no bother.

He would also be an excellent Dutch line breeding stallion for a pony breeder. He behaves like a true gentleman when serving mares. Bred himself by the number 1 breeder in Finland. His father competed Internationally and was bought to Germany.

This beautiful pony is looking for a new home as the rider has started university and cannot find time for him anymore. Very sad sale as he truly is a rare gem!
