Saffy is a much-loved, beautifully mannered schoolmistress who has truly done it all. At 21 years young she is not ready to retire and still has plenty to offer, but she deserves a quieter lifestyle suited to her age and preference. A busy Pony Club home with frequent shows and clinics is no longer fair on her; her heart lies firmly in hunting.

She would suit a lightweight adult, or teen looking for a safe, polite hunter. She is incredibly reliable out hunting — happy to potter at the back, impeccably mannered and sensible enough to accompany a younger combination. She has a bold, honest jump and will happily pop small hedges and timber, but due to her age she is not suited to fast days or big demands.

Saffy is good to hack alone and in company. My teenage daughter hacks her out in open countryside without any issues. She came to us from a farm environment. She’s never been a huge fan of farm machinery; she doesn’t do anything just needs space to pass.

She has been with us for two years and has done her job perfectly for my teenage daughter doing all pony club activities, including hound exercise and children’s meets. My daughter now needs a larger horse to jump bigger tracks SJ and XC. Saffy has never been lame, sick or sorry, is easy to shoe, clip, catch and load in a trailer or lorry, snaffle-mouthed for everyday riding, and very straightforward to manage. She prefers being out but does feel the cold, so appreciates sensible rugging or stabling in extremes. Her full history is known, and she is open to any vetting.

Saffy deserves a kind hunting home that will value her experience, understand her age, and let her enjoy the hunting lifestyle she loves most. She comes with her full wardrobe and tack.
