- Based at a foster yard in Buckinghamshire -

Seb is a charming Registered Dartmoor gelding who is now ready to find his forever home. He has settled well into our care and has already shown himself to be a gentle, likeable character who enjoys a quiet life and kind human company.

He is an easy horse to have around, fitting in nicely with other horses and enjoying a calm, predictable routine. Seb appreciates attention, is happy being groomed, and enjoys pottering about with his field mates, making him a lovely presence in any herd.

While he is currently looking for a companion home due to his age, Seb also has exciting future potential. Once he turns four and with the right careful, sympathetic backing, he could go on to make a wonderful child’s riding pony. His kind nature and sensible attitude suggest he could grow into a safe, confidence-giving partner.

Seb would suit a peaceful home where he can enjoy plenty of turnout, companionship, and a relaxed start to life, with the option of gentle education when he is older. In return, he offers sweet manners, a loving temperament, and the promise of becoming a very special pony for a lucky family.

Newoak Delilah


Ref #: 400989
  • Superstar lead rein or first ridden m&m
  • Extremely well-bred, quality pony.
  • Kind, steady sweetheart.
£8,250 ONO
  • Dartmoor
  • Black
  • Mare
  • 8 years
  • 12 hands (AHC)
  • Superstar lead rein or first ridden m&m
  • Extremely well-bred, quality pony.
  • Kind, steady sweetheart.

Delilah is a much loved pony and although I had hoped to keep her one more year, my daughter's long legs say otherwise!

We bought Delilah directly off her breeder as a just backed 4yo. From there, we did a season of lead-rein m&m, lead-rein working hunter progressing to first ridden the following year and adding tiny tots working hunter last year. She was points champion every year, representing her riding club at STARS 3 years running. She also did a couple of affiliated shows being reserve champion and could easily be a RIHS/HOYS pony.

Delilah has been in group lessons and pony club, indoors and outdoors, grass and surfaces. She excels at handy pony - walks over sheets, stands still to post a letter and more recently, really enjoyed a go at mounted games.

My daughter (now aged 10) has done all the work herself, no other riders needed. They learned to canter at the same time, to jump at the same time, everything! Delilah just took things in her stride. She does not alter when at STARS, copes well with a big atmosphere. She hacks out happily but has not been out solo given my daughter's young age. You can leave her for a couple of weeks, get on her and expect her to be exactly the same. She is never in a rush but at the same time, is not a slug. Will just do what she is asked and no more.

Delilah is a real quality pony - clean limbed, straight moving and well put together. AHC at 121.8cm.

Delilah did have a bout of laminitis last summer when living out. She now comes in at night and needs to do so with future owners so she can't binge!

Delilah comes with a native pony bridle, full set of rugs. Saddles available by seperate negotiation.

OUTSTANDING LEAD REIN DARTMOOR GELDING 6 Y.O. GREENFERNS RIO

  • Dartmoor
  • Bay
  • Gelding
  • 6 years
  • 12 hands
  • Moves like a dream
  • Calm and sensible
  • Loves children - really is their best friend

Fabulous quality lead rein pony, true to type. Rio has taken to his job so well.

A late starter as he was just a lad in a field when we bought him for his undeniably fabulous looks and conformation.

He has come home and been well handled by the children all summer, leading, grooming, feet picked out and all the lovely things with kids.

We then sent him to Sam and Georgia Darlington to be broken and brought on which he has done with a smile on his face.

Lead rein is his absolute job and he loves it, just does not put a foot wrong.

So there we are, as the grandchild he was destined for has other ideas so he is for sale to go on and delight a new family.

Totally unknown and ready to shine.

Call me for a chat.

  • Offering a varied and fun life
We are looking for a superstar pony for our petite 8 year old (120cm) approx 11.2 - 12.2hh

He is walking, trotting and cantering off the lead and currently trotting small courses up to about 40cm.

We are looking for a kind, experienced pony who can hold his hand and help his confidence soar and safely take him out to competitions - primarily dressage and showjumping. Must know their job and not constantly test as the nerves can sometimes creep in.

Will have a varied life to include lessons, beach rides, farm picnic rides, hacking, NSEA and pony club.
Must go for little legs and be suitable for a child to handle.

We would love a true child’s best friend - the sort you can do fancy dress on at your local show, go to camp or stay aways without them getting unsettled and most importantly, something that enjoys lots of cuddles and kisses!

Some minor health conditions considered as long as disclosed and reflected in the price.

We are an experienced family home and have a younger sibling waiting in the wings, so would like something that we can treasure for many years.

Sensible budget.
Ideally located within 2 hours of Dorset

3. 14.3hh – 15.3hh (for petite 5ft1 riders)
4. Bonus if seen hounds (may like to go hunting quietly a few times, but not essential)

Open to buy or loan.
