Brilliant 13.1hh mare

If anyone is looking for a cracking 2nd pony look no further than Bess .

Bess turning 15 this year.

Brilliant in Traffic we are next to an industrial estate and often has to give leads
She hack alone or in company
Great in open fields .
Use to all farm traffic

Turns out with mares or geldings.

She works well in the school and moves very well - she rides bigger than what she is with a great stride.

She will happily pop around but she has not done a huge amount of jumping but with work has the ability there.

My parents brought Bess last year for my sisters children but unfortunately the interest is not there and she can go weeks without been ridden . She is currently being ridden by my daughter but she has two horses and we don’t have any smaller jockey’s .

We have taken Bess to pony club rallies in the Rain and snow she loads in the dark travels well on her own or in company. She’s done the pony club children meet on the lead rein .

Great for the children to do the sort you can tie up and leave them to do . Fantastic to clip !!

She’s bare foot - fab for the farrier with great feet . She’s up-to date with her vaccinations.

This pony needs a new best friend as she deserves it .

Please get in touch if you think she may be for you . She is a second pony for someone that wants to have fun . She will come with her tack.

  • Actively looking for the best Pony Club ponies
  • Some fabulous knowledgeable homes waiting
  • No fees for sellers

I have motivated clients looking for genuine, kind, quality and proven ponies to take part in all Pony Club activities.

The ponies I would love to hear about are those not needing to be advertised to secure a new home. There’s no harm in finding out whether I know of a better home and match. Perhaps you worry about your child finding it upsetting seeing their old pony regularly at rallies etc - then selling out of area could be a better solution.

These are motivated buyers receiving guidance as to what will likely suit their child - not the timewasters regularly reported. In most cases homes are also knowledgeable: simply lacking in time to conduct a search themselves. Most will also wait for the right pony so if you are not ready to sell yet, that’s not an issue.

There are some decent budgets available relative to age and medical conditions etc.

All leads will be handled with discretion.

11.2hh, 17-year-old pony looking for his next home.

A smart lead rein pony and a great jumper who loves having a job to do. He has completed Pony Club camps, attended numerous rallies, and has done plenty of showing.

With a previous owner he successfully competed in affiliated M&M workers with a bigger child, showing his ability and love for jumping.

He has also been out hunting on the lead rein and would happily go all day.

He is never sick or sorry and has been a fun pony to have around.

Unfortunately my daughter is still a little nervous and he is too much pony for her off the lead rein. Off the lead rein he can be forward and keen, as he enjoys getting on with his work.

Frank is looking for his new best friend. He has 3 steady balanced paces, works in an outline and is rhythmical and balanced on the flat.

He is safe in all aspects whether it’s hacking, schooling, on the ground or away from home. He hacks alone or in company and is never silly. He is sensible with the farrier and is good to load. He is up to date with all of his vaccines and with his teeth.

Frank has been on multiple fun rides, to the beach, dressage competitions, he gallops through open spaces alone or in a group and jumps a nice course at home and away from home.

Frank would be perfectly suited to a pony club home or a small adult who wants to have some fun. Yes Frank is safe but he’s not your typical ploddy slow cob, he’s forward going and loves to have a job and is always snaffle mouthed.

The only reason he is up for sale is because I am just too big for him. He comes with a professionally fitted saddle and a bridle. His saddle is brand new.

I’m accepting offers to the perfect home.

Bella - 12.2 4yo Welsh A Part Bred Mare

This pony has lots of talent to excel as a dressage diva or super jumping pony. She’s not a spooky type and seems to be happy to jump anything. I lead her over all sorts of fillers and obstacles

She has done lots of the firsts with us and is now ready to be someone’s number one to progress

She has done a PC lesson, Mini SJ, Arena Hire and been ridden on lead rein and by 9 and 10 year olds and a professional rider

She’s has been long reined and lunged

She has had teeth, vaccs, and farrier trim all done

She is of course still very green and learning as she is only 4 but I think she has got an exciting future ahead of her. Her price will go up the more we do with her

Rocking Horse Lead Rein Gelding


Ref #: 373962

  • The perfect rocking horse canter

  • Welsh Section A

  • Great for tiny tots to learn their up downs
  • Floaty paces
  • The perfect rocking horse canter

Frankie is a wonderful child’s pony. He has three lovely steady paces perfect to learn ups and downs but doesn’t need kicking to keep him going.

He has the most gorgeous rocking horse canter that you can jog along beside on the lead rein. He will pop over a jump beautifully, never over jumps.

In his previous home he did many different lead rein activities including dressage, jumping, cross country, shows, beach rides and pony club.

He goes through water, is bombproof in traffic and hacks out alone. He will stand for hours for round the world, be dressed up, ridden bareback from the field and to be be groomed.

Frankie has been used as a first ridden previously but has picked up some bad habits and therefore the reason we feel he is best suited to a lead rein home (please note: he is being sold as a lead rein pony and will not be sold as off lead / first ridden).

Full history known and references available from all previous 3 owners. Thousands of photos and videos. Frankie is much loved and will only go to the best of homes.

Would prefer people to call or can what’s app for videos if interested.

Update: Frankie has been in a loan home with a friend for the winter, mainly as a companion / LR for a tiny tot which he does well at - because of this he is sold in his winter wollies!

Lettuce is a beautiful expressive uphill mover. She has been impeccable on every outing proving to be an old head on young shoulders.

Lettuce is proving to be very bold and brave jumping with a beautiful technique and scope. We feel she would excel in working hunter, jumping or just an all round competitive fun pony.

She is a beautiful model of a pony who is going to do well in the show ring in any class.

She would suit a competent/knowledgeable home due to her young age, milage and still being a bit green but there's nothing to say she wouldn't suit an absolute novice in the future as she has a lovely temperament and looks after her young riders.

Good to clip, with farrier and teeth etc.

She is priced realistically for her quality and potential and her price will continue to increase the more we do with her. Message if interested for more information and videos.

Vetting passed including X-rays!
Now SOLD subject to collection!

We got Sharaya when my son was 5 and he was a complete beginner, Sharaya has taken him from a bobbly lead rein to being able to come off the lead rein. We did have Honey Crawford to school her at this point to get her more establish with the canter as she just did a fast trot with my son.

From then each year they both moved forward adding more things.

He then started doing competitions and has been very successful, and also doing pony club.

The bond between them have grown so much over the years and now he is jumping courses of 70’s and has been racing at haydock park race track.

He has so much confidence now and that is all down to his journey with Sharaya, but now that journey is coming to the end as she has been sadly out grown and now time for him to move onto his next pony which he says he just wants a bigger Sharaya.

I don’t believe any pony is perfect but I couldn’t have asked of anything more from her over these years, she only deserves the very best.

We have had Sharaya for 5 years now and if I could stretch her or had younger children she wouldn’t be going anywhere.

We have done everything and been everywhere with her and my son.
Beach rides
All Pony club activities, mounted games on the lead rein she is fantastic but off lead rein her competitive/cheeky side comes out.
Farm rides
Gallops, kelsell, aintree race track and raced at haydock park twice.
Cross country
Clinics
Dressage - scoring 70% to 74%
Three pony club Camps
YH camp
Show jumping
Local Shows - inhand, first ridden, equitation, workers etc
Been to to STARS
Excellent to load and unload
Excellent with the farrier, dentist, physio etc
Good to clip but she doesn’t like it around her ears. She can be fresh after a clip if she gets cold (just more forward) but if you ride her with an exercise sheet on she is fine.
She is happy to be ridden out on her or in company.
She is handled by my son daily who does most things with her.
She walks back and too from the field like dream.
She hasn’t been on the roads a lot as we are straight on bridle paths where we are.
Never rode by an adult only children.

A bit of her show portfolio

We have done many other competitions including pony club competitions but they are just a few to show her success.
She is always in the ribbons.

She has turned into a 1.5 pony for the last couple of years for us.

She is shy with new people but if you take your time with her and build the bond she will love you forever.

She is ready to get straight out doing everything.
She is barefoot, good doer, up to date with everything. Happy to live in or out. No vices. No health issues.

Fully fitted tack and rugs included

Loads of pictures and videos available

The very best knowledgeable home only please. Homes will be vetted. No time wasters.
No loans, trails or payment plans.

Recently backed and brought on, she is going beautifully on and off the lead rein in walk and trot and her canter is progressing well too.

She has only ever been ridden by children which is a testament to her temperament, they do not come more genuine than her.

Attended her first show for practice last weekend and was an absolute diamond, no lunging needed, she took every minute in her stride.

A true Barbie pony! Golden palomino with a bright white mane and tail. Excellent conformation and beautiful movement.

She has hacked out alone and in company and is sensible on the roads. She is the easiest pony to have around, she is quiet and straight forward, you could trust her around the smallest of children.
