Super fun and impressive pony, well schooled on the flat and happily pops round a course of 70/80cm currently, unfazed by fillers etc. Hacks alone and in company, however not suitable for novices or children coming off their first pony as he is a forward ride and very responsive to leg.
I produced Oreo from a 3 year old as an event pony and he was absolutely awesome, had competed to 90cm SJ, xc schooled upto 1m and competed in one day events. He was just about to be entered into his first British Eventing 90 as a 4 year old when he unfortunately suffered a deep digital flexor tendon injury in the stable overnight in October 2021. He had surgery at Oakham Hospital and no expense was spared on his treatment. He has since recovered absolutely fine and has been back in work for over a year schooling/hacking/popping small courses etc with no problems and stayed sound and happy throughout. This is all accounted for in his price, without the injury and in work he’d be a £15,000+ pony so please don’t contact me if him having a previous injury is an issue for you.
Great to handle/clip/bath/farrier etc. typical cheeky welshie, is a real character and fun to have on the yard. Can occasionally be slightly cold backed when first getting on, he doesn’t do anything but just plants when you first ask him to walk off. I’ve found just sitting quiet for 10/20 seconds without pressuring him on works well and and he will walk on perfectly once he’s had a moment to relax.
A fantastic opportunity for someone take on a quality well schooled pony who has previously been produced to a higher level for a fraction of the price he would have been.
Open to vettings etc. Did pass a 5 stage when I bought him Nov 2020. Has always been kept to the same standard as our competiton horses, upto date with dentist. Has good feet and is fine unshod but did have a full set on when competing and is good to shoe etc
Not suitable as a child’s pony. Would suit a small adult or capable teenager looking for a quality ride to have fun on. For reference I’m 5’2 and 54kg.
Please be prepared to send videos demonstrating your riding ability before viewings are arranged, he won’t be sold to just anyone and the perfect home is a must
