Honey is a 14hh Connemara X New Forest mare who is my first pony that I've had for the last 6 years.
We have had lots of fun doing all sorts of things over the years : pony club, unaff showjumping, unaff dressage, arena eventing, cross country, combined training, hunting, fun rides, hacking and lots more.
~ Honey is most comfortable jumping up to 80 and we have done single fences up to 95. She would happily step down to a 50cm or equally step up to an 80cm. She can sometimes be spooky with fillers but with confidence from her rider she flies round.
~ Honey would be ideal for a confident child who wants to have fun without competitive pressure. Honey loves pony club activities and frequently shows off her backend over jumps!
~ I have only hunted her once as I'm not brave enough for it, but she was well behaved. In her previous homes I have heard she was a cracking hunting pony so feel this is something she would excel at.
~ Honey also has great flatwork and carries herself nicely, doing a lovely test, which could also make her a great pony for working hunter.
~ Great to hack in company, unfazed by all types of traffic. She can be more hesitant to hack by herself, which is something we have worked on and improved at, however she simply prefers having a friend with her.
~ Good to catch, load, shoe etc.
~ This is a really difficult decision for me and one that I have put off for the last 2 years, but with me being taller (now 5"9) with long legs, I've simply outgrown her. In addition, she hasn't done as much over the last year due to us moving the horses home without a menáge, meaning she is therefore looking rather round! Honey is the type of pony that you can ride 5 days a week or once a week and she will always come out the same, so I have no doubt that she'll easily get fitter again in no time, the more she is ridden.
~ I am offering her up for loan/lease. I would be happy for her to be part loaned to stay where she is currently in Shropshire or have her move somewhere locally on full loan/lease.
I know this pony inside and out and am therefore in no rush so please only serious enquiries!!
