**Novice Welsh Cob Stallion Available for Lease**

An exciting prospect for an ambitious rider, this quality Welsh Cob stallion has been professionally backed and brought on this year. He is now ready for someone to take him further.

Already successful in hand, he recently attended his first ridden show, where he was placed and impressed with his manners and potential.

By the late great, Glanvyrnwy Temptation, he has exceptional breeding and the traditional stamp that is increasingly hard to find. For someone with HOYS ambitions, this is an opportunity to bring on a promising stallion without buying outright.

Available **for lease only**. He can remain at his current yard near Macclesfield, Cheshire, if preferred. Please get in touch for further details; terms to be agreed.

A post I have been putting off writing. My Beautiful Welsh Section D Mare is looking for a new postcode.

She is a big upstanding 5 year old with the head of a model and the bottom of a cook!

She was beautifully started by Sarah and bought on by Tamsyn to become a sensible, sensitive pony with manners to burn. This year she has contested a handful of novice classes to get her out and about. She will be ready to step up into opens next year, whether it be for juniors or open Section D classes. She is lovely to hack and has done so with quite novice riders. She has brakes, balance and comes off your leg.

We feel she will make a fabulous Mother Child share she could even step away from showing and become a top class pony club or dressage pony.

She is extremely balanced and has the best engine you could ever wish for and really engages her hocks.

She stands I think about 15hh and has a huge front, not measured her officially.

Last year she did have a field accident and needed an operation, she spent several months recovering which I will fully disclose to any interested parties.

I literally love the bones of this mare and I have dreamed for many years of owning something quite as beautiful. However, our little team have a passion for Fell ponies, this is the direction they want to continue to go. It’s no good me trying to persuade them otherwise!

If I was 30 years younger I would be enjoying her myself so I have made the difficult decision of finding her someone that will appreciate her as much as I do.

Cobs like her do not appear often. She will not be cheap for the incredible amount of work that has gone into her but I am totally realistic on price, given what happened last year.

Please don’t ask for endless videos I can’t get them if you are genuinely interested please pop me a message and come and see her. You won’t be disappointed! She is based in Derbyshire.

If there was any other way then I wouldn’t be writing this!

Beautiful 14.1hh Welsh Sec D Mare

​Breed: Welsh Section D

​Age: 7 years old

​Height: 14.1hh

​Color: Black with striking white blaze & single white sock

​Location: South Yorkshire

​Ali is a very loving mare who oozes potential. My youngest daughter has safely ridden and hacked her since age 8, and my older daughter—who can be a nervous rider—rides her out with ease. She has done hacking, arena hires, low-level jumping, and pleasure rides, proving to be a kind, reliable, and fun pony.

​She is a sweet, honest, and loving mare who adores people, treats, and endless bum scratches. She has zero malice—she does not buck, rear, or bolt. With beautiful, floaty paces and excellent natural scope over a fence, she has real potential to perform well in dressage, showing, or jumping with the right rider.

​She would also make a dream riding school pony, as she thrives in group environments, loves people, and would excel with a predictable routine.

​The Highlights:

​Jumping Potential: Shows fantastic technique and plenty of natural scope over a fence. When confident, she is a point-and-go ride who handles the rest.

​Hacking: Fantastic in company, preferring to follow but can and does pop in front to build confidence. Handles heavy traffic (tractors, bin lorries, motorbikes, barking dogs) with ease. Hacks alone quietly, though may need a lead past something new.

​Fun & Forward: Calm and chilled when riding at home or on arena hires, but brings a fun, forward, and eager energy to hunting and pleasure rides—jumping everything in front of her, including hedges, ditches, and drains.

​Easy Keeper & Great Manners: Barefoot, easy to catch, and straightforward to load. Great for the farrier and can live in or out.

​Top-Tier Care: 100% up to date with farrier, teeth, physio, and vaccinations. No lumps, bumps, or sarcoids. Clean limbs and excellent overall health. She is a solid, healthy mare who I am confident would pass any vetting.

​Honest Notes & Competition Profile (Full Transparency):

​Competition Environment: While calm and confident at home or during arena hires (with or without friends), she currently loses confidence in busy, away-from-home competition settings. Her lack of confidence presents as stress—she can sweat up and at times become reluctant to move forward, requiring a lead or reassuring rider to keep going. With time, patience, and exposure, we believe she will overcome this. For showjumping, she would suit an experienced rider looking for a project to develop further.

​Clipping: Requires sedation to be clipped safely and stress-free.

​Yard Routine (FOMO): Loves her herd! Fine being stabled or led in alone, but prefers not to be the last pony left behind in the yard when others head out (she will pace her stable and neigh if left behind).

​Ulcer History: Had a brief spell of mild, saddle-related ulcers in the past due to changing shape as she filled out. Fully treated, resolved, and maintained with regular professional saddle checks. Full medical history is available.

​Reason for Sale: My younger daughter wants to compete, and has moved onto an older, more experienced pony.

Full vetting is welcomed.

A lovely, genuine horse with a fantastic attitude and a bright future ahead of him.

Draco has Showjumped, Competed in Working Hunter Pony classes, Arena Evented, XC schooled and also competed successfully in flat HOYS Welsh D classes, where he has held his own. Draco also went out with the bloodhounds with a young novice rider and proved to be extremely well mannered, bold and a real confidence giver.

He is a lovely horse who is so easy to do very straightforward, willing and a real pleasure to have around. He has a kind, sensible nature and is easy enough for a junior or amateur rider or good enough for a professional to potentially compete in HOYS and RI exc.143 workers or as a flat horse, making him a very versatile prospect for someone wanting a horse they can enjoy and progress with.

Draco has a great attitude to his work and competition and is ready for someone to continue his education and have lots of fun with him.

A really special little horse who would suit someone looking for a genuine, competitive and easy going partner. I have never known a horse to love his ridden job as much as him and will give absolutely anything a go, there is not one thing you could fault about this little horse. A very sad sale due to change in circumstances.

5⭐️ knowledgeable, caring home where he will be loved and given every opportunity to continue his education and enjoy a varied life.

Lots of photos and Videos available.

Willowcourt Comet - Stunning 5yr old owned since a foal and carefully produced and handled from birth. Full history known

A very talented boy who has just started to further his education with jumping training. He is a HOYS potential worker and I don’t say that lightly. Jumping is new to him due to other commitments and the hot summer.

Hacks alone and in company over motorway bridges and through open fields. Broken at 4 and very gently produced to start with as he was still growing so is low mileage. Probably still has some height in him but is filling out well now.

Schooling well and attended his first show recently and was impeccably behaved. Visited a few other venues and isn’t bothered about a new place goes very well away from home.

I’m being told to keep him as he will go far but can’t keep them all but will only go to the right person to carry on his education. He is a baby and a novice pony so will have a green moment so no novice owners and riders.

In the right hands he will go far. Flatter action and lovely uphill canter so would also do well in dressage. Lots of videos and photos available so please feel free to call for a chat. Comes with tack rug and delivery within reason.

• Happiest out competing
• 2nd/63 British Novice @ Hickstead (her first trip to Hickstead!)
• Also enjoys eventing

Sparky is a true competition pony. My mum bought her as a 3-year-old, and I have broken and produced her myself from the ground up.

She has competed at BS at 85/90cm and always comes home with prize money. In just 5 outings she has won £181. In particular coming 2nd out of 63 starters at Hickstead in the British Novice.

She has also had a go at eventing at a Riding Club ODE, where she was double clear at her first outing.

She absolutely loves her job and it happiest when out competing

She is a brave, careful and competitive mare who really wants to do the job. She has plenty of scope and is the sort of pony that thrives on having a job and going out competing.

She's a proper pocket rocket when she gets in the ring. A genuine little competition machine who always gives her best.

Away from the competition environment, Sparky has a very sweet and affectionate temperament, although she can be pushy/bargy on the ground, so she is not suitable for an inexperienced home.

She can be distracted in the warm up but always gets in the zone as soon as she enters the ring.

She has previously been nervous of traffic, but has come a long way and is now capable of hacking alone with an experienced rider. She is happiest with a rider who is confident enough to think ahead and, where necessary, use driveways to pull into and give her a little space when she needs it.

She is not a straightforward ride on the flat, and for this reason I don't feel she would be suitable as a child's pony. She would ideally suit a competent, confident teenager or small adult who wants a genuine competition partner and is looking to progress.

Competition home only — absolutely no happy hackers. I am looking for someone who wants to get out there, compete and make the most of a very talented little mare.
This is a very special pony who has been so much fun to produce, and finding the right home for her is extremely important to me.

• Exceptional Temperament- A genuinely kind, affectionate and willing mare with a fantastic attitude
• Talented & Versatile All-Rounder- A lovely mover with plenty of ability and potential
• Enjoyable & Straightforward- Well behaved in all aspects of her care

Beautiful 6-year-old registered Welsh Section D mare, bay with four white socks, and very good breeding, looking for her next home.

A genuine, kind and versatile mare with a lovely attitude who is ready to find someone to continue her education and enjoy her as much as we have. She is the sort that can turn her hoof to a variety of activities and would make a lovely family horse, mother/daughter share, teenager’s horse or best friend.

She has a willing attitude and always tries her best. She has successfully competed on the county circuit, including HOYS qualifiers, as well as competing in showing classes, working hunter and fun rides, and attending clinics. She has gained valuable experience but is now being offered as a genuine all-rounder with the ability and potential to progress in whichever direction her new owner chooses.

She hacks out alone and in company, is good in traffic and open spaces, and is sensible, forward-going but not sharp. She is showing lovely paces and has plenty of potential for dressage, show jumping, working hunter, Pony Club, showing, hacking or simply enjoying as a fun all-rounder.

On the ground she is kind, affectionate and well mannered and is good to catch, groom, bath, load, travel, farrier and dentist.

She really is a lovely mare with quality, experience and a fantastic temperament, and we feel she has so much to offer her next person. She would be an exciting prospect for someone wanting a quality Welsh D with the experience to go out and enjoy herself, whilst still having plenty of scope to continue her education.
