Ladbury Poldark
Registered standard black Shetland gelding, very smart with lots of hair.
5 years old
Purchased as a two year old directly from, we find ourselves without a regular rider and he’s currently wasted in the field as a weaning companion. This has been a difficult decision because we think the world of him.
Lightly but successfully shown locally on the lead rein and in hand, with lots of wins/champs. 3rd (highest placed Shetland) in the M&M championship at SWPA. Also qualified for STARS in M&M LR. We are very much amateur/home produced; Ross could be a serious contender for the qualifiers next year. Equally could be a happy hacker or Pony Club allrounder, just needs a family who will enjoy him.
Although he’s been purely a lead rein pony for tiny-tot riders, he spent a few weeks during Summer 24 with a small teen who rode him off the lead rein, on busy roads, practiced games and jumping. Nothing phased him; he’s not spooky and more whoa than go. Whilst away he also attended PC camp with a novice lead rein rider.
He’s been to a handful of PC rallies and one day of camp this year.
Used to farm traffic, quads, dogs, bikes etc. Turns out on his own or with others. Loads and travels no problem. Good to clip, farrier, dentist.
Although he's being sold as a lead rein pony; with a little schooling could be a lovely First Ridden.
No history of sweet itch or laminitis, always been barefoot.
Up to date with vaccinations.
Currently chubby and fluffy!
Zoe Snape saddle pad, English bridle and Le Beau Cheval lead rein outfit available by separate negotiation.
