13.2hh 5 year old dun traditional cob mare.
She is a true leg at each corner.
I am 5ft9 and I am the rider in the photos.
It’s hard to find the words to describe my beautiful girl, but one thing is for sure… her attitude to life is truly infectious, you can’t help but smile when you are with her and every single person that meets her falls in love immediately. I will only let her go to her perfect partner, so only the most special of forever homes please. She will be sorely missed and I have been putting this off for some time but she is so ready for her next chapter and I know that she is going to make that one very lucky person so unbelievably happy and that is exactly why I do what I do.
She has been professionally started, ridden away and produced by myself for the past two years, so has had a fantastic start to her education. She has been produced slowly and correctly and is proving to be a fabulous all rounder who is very willing to turn her hoof to anything that you ask of her and very much enjoys having a job and being out and about!
I lightly backed her as a 3 and a half year old and then turned her away for the winter to mature. Then restarted her as a 4 year old and she has been in regular work since then, other than a couple of months break over last winter. She is such a lovely mare to work with, so honest and willing to give everything a go, she always tries her heart out for you. She is forward thinking, responsive to the aids and light in the hand. She can pick up a gear sensibly if asked and always has excellent breaks. She is schooling beautifully in walk, trot and canter and has started lateral work. She would effortlessly work way up the levels BD.
She is snaffle mouthed at all times.
She has been boxing up regularly since September last year and has been regularly attending pole clinics since then. She has also done a Trec clinic and tackled all the obstacles very boldly. She has been on several ‘Ride Yorkshire’ guided group rides hacking through the Yorkshire wolds and rides very sensibly with others, is happy to be at the front, back or in the middle of the group and canters quietly as a group. She has also ridden solo round Escrick park estate and is happy to walk, trot and canter on her own in open spaces, without being silly or strong.
She has been to two dressage competitions now scoring 65.68% and 3rd place in her first ever test (she had never seen the white boards before this) then went straight back in and won her second test with 70%. In her second dressage competition she scored 67.5% in both tests and won both classes. With lovely comments from the judges on all her sheets.
She is a wonderful little mare with such a huge heart and so much to give. We have had so much fun together and it will break my heart to let her go. I’m in absolutely no rush and she will only be sold to her perfect partner and forever home, she deserves the very best and in the meantime we will keep going out and enjoying having fun together until that person finds us.
She is up to date with everything, farrier (she is barefoot), fully vaccinated for flu and tetanus, worming and worm counts, teeth and physio (which she has had every 6 weeks for the entire time she has been with me)
She is happy to live in or out, she currently comes in for a few hours a day and turned out with two other mares the rest of the time.
She loads and travels well in a box, I have never had her in a trailer but I can’t see her being a bother as she loves to go out in the box.
She has a passport and microchip.
Homes will be vetted, I am looking for a forever home only please.
She came to me with very mild locking stifles (they have never locked) I have worked closely with my vet and physio and followed their advice from day one to ensure that I have done absolutely everything possible to strengthen her. This is one of the reasons that I have kept her this long so I had a definite answer on whether she was going to grow out of the condition or not so then I could sell her with the assurance of this and I am delighted to say that she has grown out of it. And with everything we have done together, she has more than proved she will excel in any discipline!
No novices please, as much as she is a very straightforward pony to work with I am looking for someone to continue her education and give her a job and go out and have fun on her.
Absolutely no dealers, no time wasters, no day dreamers, no novices, no joy riders, no riding schools, no loans and no payment plans.
Based East Riding of Yorkshire
If you go to Spring House Farm stud’s Facebook and TikTok you will find tons of posts/photos/videos of her.
