100% purebred green passport New Forest Pony - Chestnut Roan. Forest bred. Breeding out of Knavesash Golden Fever.
Super star all rounder pony, owned for almost 4 years since daughter was 8, sadly for sale as my daughter has outgrown him and is moving up to horses. Kind loving fun and brave gelding with an amazing attitude towards learning. Can adapt to his rider and has been a great confidence giver for my daughter.
Pony club:
Romeo has been a brilliant pony club all rounder- attending countless general rallies, group pony club rides, rallies for dressage, showjumping, Cross country, competed at areas for ODE and dressage, regionals dressage with unaffiliated showjumping. He really enjoys mounted games and gymkhanas. He has been to 3 pony camps with my daughter and behaved himself very well, doing all activities in the top group with bigger ponies. Daughter just completed C test with him.
Dressage:
Romeo is a dressage superstar! In the almost 4 years of having him he has weekly dressage training with a professional instructor and is working in a consistent elastic contact, through his back and using himself correctly. He has 3 balanced paces and is consistently placing in Prelim BD Quest with my daughter and is now working towards Novice classes. He has competed at Pony Club Areas scoring 25 at ODE, 67.5 at dressage areas, attended Regional Championships in Gloucestershire for Affiliated Dressage.
Showjumping:
Slowly and carefully produced for jumping, Romeo has taken my daughter from jumping 40-50cm at shows a year ago to 75-80cm now. He is very genuine and kind over a jump, never refuses and always helps out his rider! Regular training with PC instructor, not phased by spooky fillers. He has lots of potential as a BS pony.
Cross country:
Romeo loves this and has been regularly taken to different venues, brave with a range of jumps, logs, ditches, canters through water and jumps into water. Competed at local eventing and PC area ODE.
Hacking:
Absolutely loves hacking, bombproof, will go first or last and happy to hack out alone or in company. Always keeps daughter safe and has never been spooky since owned as a 4 year old. Great in traffic and not bothered by anything. Been exposed to tractors and farm vehicles. Daughter has had a brilliant time with friends on beach rides.
No vices, happy to live in or out, is the same ridden after a week off, great to catch (comes to you), for dentist, farrier, loading, clipping, travels well, good at shows and overnight stays. 12 year old brings in, tacks up and loads. Open to vetting, always 100% healthy, never had the vet.
Looking for an experienced five star home for this super special pony, ideally suited to a RC/PC home. He is a first to second or a second pony as needs a competent rider to take him further in his career. Includes GFS monarch saddle (worth £1000) and le mieux work bridle. No time wasters please.
