  • Super talented - Bold & scopey with manners to burn
  • Mothers dream - Ideal for competitive Junior or Small adult
  • Performance Bred - Potential Team Pony - WHP / EVENT / M&M / PC

Old fashioned stamp with leg in each corner and fantastic pedigree. Her Grandsires, Earl of Castlefrench and Gwennic De Goariva need no introduction, both renowned Competition Champions and sires of top class performance Stock. Members of her close family have historically successfully competed at HOYS, RI and represented GB and Irish teams.

Exceptionally talented, she has been brought on slowly and will make a top class WHP/Eventer. Lovely balanced mover and athletic by nature. Brave Cross Country. Bold SJ. She has been produced correctly with the support of professional coaches. Without doubt she is a Team prospect in the making for a competitive junior who will continue building her confidence and increase her exposure to gain the competition mileage required to reach that goal.

She is stabled at a competition venue and therefore used to the atmosphere and hustle and bustle of Elite Competition going on round about her. When she has been taken out to other venues and training shows she has behaved impeccably on every occasion.

Superb temperament and lovely character. Everything about her is straightforward, catching, clipping, trimming, bathing, loading, travelling, dentist, Traffic etc. Hacks alone and in Company. Well behaved in open country. No, ifs, buts or hang-ups. Old head on young shoulders. Also very kind round little people on the ground and recently proven mannerly when ridden in open country by small (10yr old) child off leading rein.

This is a genuine and reluctant sale. She is only on the market for no other reason than the junior rider she was purchased for has outgrown her prematurely. She is such a delightful pony to work with and has taken her education so far in her stride, she clearly loves to work and to learn.
At 6yrs old whilst technically still a novice, she is fit and more than ready to go out and establish herself in competition across all disciplines.

We are looking for a 10 star, kind and knowledgeable long term home where she will continue her education and realise her full potential without being rushed or over-faced in view of her obvious talent and good nature. She is an ideal fit for a loving family where she will have a home for life and will pass down to younger siblings over time. Her Class 1 status means she is eligible for all M and M competitions. These credentials, combined with her superb temperament, make her an excellent candidate for breeding in later life. In short, genuine ponies of this calibre are few and far between. Finding her the right home is a priority. N/N HWSD

She can be viewed near Banbury, Oxfordshire where there are Excellent facilities on site. Vaccinations etc all up to date. Open to Vet. For further details, please call :- 01953 681895 or message Whatsapp 07551 495187 for call back.

Rocky is the most wonderful boy who is a great all rounder.

He is beautifully schooled and loves being ridden in the big fields.

Rocky hacks out and is good to handle.

We have used Rocky for showing and he has been to RI as a Junior although feel he would prefer a more varied role. We have tried a few jumps and he seems to really enjoy this.

Please no time wasters

Phone signal is poor in the house so if unable to contact please text and I will call back.

Lightly backed January 2024 then put in foal.

Dora is now been back under saddle 12 weeks and being an absolute star, She’s intelligent, level headed, willing and forward thinking. Loves hacking, really brave will stride out in front through the forest, over ditches, bridges and puddles.

Not phased by flags, pool noodles, dogs, goats, heavy farm machinery…

Ridden by BD international GB Team rider she is schooling well on the flat with our first SJ arena hire last week. Mini XC schooling next week. Price will go up the more we do as she is progressing well.

Dora is a beautiful dapple grey, with a black mane and a pink snip on her nose, she’s so pretty and a real character. I bought her from a friend and I hoped my daughter would move on to her but she’s completely lost interest.

Not a novice ride as she’s only been back under saddle 12 weeks.

Looking for someone to continue her education and follow in her father’s footsteps!

Glencarrig Dolphin is currently the highest ranked Connemara stallion on the FEI Pony Event circuit

  • 9 years

  • Beautiful, affectionate pony with lovely paces
  • Many wins, including dressage, flat and WHP championships
  • Loves to jump - an excellent all-rounder or PC/RC prospect

Millie has a class one pedigree (N/N HWD). She has a lovely, affectionate nature and good even paces, is very willing and loves to jump. With her previous owner she won numerous BD classes, flat and working hunter championships and enjoyed hunting. She qualified for/competed at:

• Blair International Horse Trials Scottish Championships, BE90 2022, 2023
• Blair Scottish NPS Championships 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024
• Badminton Grassroots BE90 Championships 2023

Good to catch, clip, shoe, box, have teeth done. No stable vices.

Millie likes to have other horses close by and happily shares grazing with others. Hacks alone and also enjoys company on a ride. She is used to light vehicles but has limited experience of larger vehicles/heavy traffic.

Current retired owner only does gentle hacking and flatwork, and Millie has proved she can do so much more. Would suit a confident experienced rider looking for a great all-rounder to have fun with and take further. Not suitable for a beginner.

We are looking for a caring and knowledgeable home with several other horses for company for this special pony.

Price reflects competition wins.

She is sweet, affectionate, and eager to please, with no bad habits or quirks. She’s forward-going but never silly – a dream pony for the sport. She loves jumping, straight forward at cross country, she takes everything in her stride.

Riding Qualities

With three expressive, balanced paces, Button has a beautiful floating trot and is easy to ride into a soft, correct outline. She’s responsive and light in the hand, and she thrives when given a job. Whether you’re in the school, out jumping, or hacking around the countryside, Button gives 110% every time.

Easy to Handle

Button is a dream to do in every way – she’s easy to shoe, box, catch, clip, and handle on the ground. She adores people and is a pleasure to have around the yard.

The Ideal All-Rounder

Whether you’re looking for a competition pony, a confident novice’s next step up, a mother-daughter share, or even a quality addition to a riding school – Button fits the bill. She has the talent, temperament, and looks to go far in the right hands, and she’s ready for someone to enjoy and build a partnership with.
