13hh Welsh cross 12 year old( not 12 till November) Palamino gelding

After nearly 4 1/2 years of owning our golden boy, both children are finally too tall to ride him any longer.

Fara has been a super pony for both our children to learn lots on, moving on from their 11.2 ponies jumping 50 cm he has taken them up to 70cm at competition. And can jump higher at home and schooling SJ and XC. We have regularly competed at all pony club competitions, NSEA, working hunter, hunter trials dressage and arena eventing, Fara’s perfect competition height is 50-70, and we feel no higher as a competition pony. He is comfortable and confident at this height.

He had been placed pony club and NSEA dressage, Aston Le Walls school arena eventing and lots of showjumping.

Fara was part of the winning team at the NSEA grassroots championship at Hickstead, jumping 3 clear rounds.

Fara was part of the winning 65cm Bloxham eventer challenge team championship.

We have won and placed at lots of unaffiliated and affiliated working hunter class, qualifying him for the BSPS summer champs.

Previously Fara was hugely successful at working hunter with his owners before us.

He has been to pony club Camp, stay away shows, always being very well behaved and settled.

One of his favourite days would be a local country show, spent grazing arena sides and sharing ice creams with lots of kids, while competing in various classes.

He would be very happy being shared with siblings, as my two children have shared him hunting, and at competitions. He loves to be busy, but also happy having time off if his family are away on holiday.

He is super to hack out alone or in company, good in traffic, easy to ride in the school alone or with lots of ponies. He always wears a universal bit, with a flash or grackle noseband but is fine in a snaffle for dressage.

He is not a plod, he is a safe forward going pony and maybe more a 2nd pony after leadrein.

Good to turnout and catch, bath, clip all out, load and stand on the lorry, good with the farrier, cautious but fine with a vet.

His biggest love is hunting, we have hunted him for 3 seasons, from autumn hunting through to the end of season. He has hunted mainly with the Grafton, but also Pytchley, Bicester and Beaufort. He is a real goer, keen but safe and knows and loves his job, he really can jump nearly everything. Neat and clever over rails, jumped gates of roads and good size hedges. He is not for the faint hearted out hunting and if that’s the job you would like him for, than a more hunting experienced family would be best. He’s a gutsy little pony with a huge heart, that’s thinks he’s 17hh. He has great manners on the lorry, at the meet and standing while queuing.

Fara had a tumor and tooth removed from his upper jaw in Autumn 2020. A repeat X-ray 6 months after with a clean picture and has had the equine dentist annually since with no problems reported.

Fara had laminitis back in January 2021, and not since, he is easily and sensibly managed. but he will only go to the best and knowlagble home for this reason.

He is priced according to his veterinary history, but do not be put off by them, it is long in the past. He really is a dream pony to have fun and learn lots with. We would love him to go to a larger family so he can have a forever home. We would like Fara to go to a family where he will be used plenty, as he doesn’t deserve to be a part time pony.

Competition/ hunting bridle, breastplate and stable and turn out rugs included.

Seamie is a truly wonderful, well built sturdy gentleman who is light on his feet, with a heart of gold and plenty of talent.

A traditional Irish pony, who’s participated in all pony club activities with the Meath pony club in Ireland. Extremely experienced out hunting and has several seasons with the Meath hunt under his belt, he will take on the widest of ditches and biggest if hedges without a blink, he is sure footed and totally reliable in the field.

A machine cross country, very brave, honest and reliable. Competed ODE, Hunter trials, pairs jumping.
Would be ready for a BE career.

Seamie rides well in the school with attractive paces, great balance and a comfortable canter. Will turn a hoof in the show ring too with some training.

Competed SJ competitions at 80/90cm level. Has a bold jump and a forgiving nature, a great technique and naturally careful. Certainly would affiliate BS and be a super fun pony to produce further and put your own stamp on for BN/ Discovery classes.

Very good to hack, alone and in company, in open spaces and all types of traffic.

A real one in a million, very special, super-cob pony.

Sadly this lovely little mare is looking for a new home due to jockey now being out of ponies. Molly came to us in January 2023 unbroken and has proven herself to be an angel in every way.

She was late started due to having a foal.
Molly has mainly showjumped with us and has got her 4 British novice double clears for 2024 and is confidently jumping round discoverys. She is not spooky in any way and takes everything in her stride. Won the British novice at Bishop Burton pony premier summer 23.

She has also done arena eventing a couple of times taking everything in her stride.

She is looking for a best friend and would excel in pony club or showjumping home. But would turn her hoof to anything.

She is amazing to handle on the ground and under saddle. She has no vices, perfect to clip, shoe and load. Good to hack alone or in company. Never sick or sorry. Doesn’t buck or rear.

Heartbreaking sale so no time wasters

We have owned Puzzle for 4 years and have done a bit of everything with her. She has brought lots of smiles to all the family, plenty of rosettes and is a total gem!

I cannot speak highly enough of her gorgeous character. She is a dream pony. So safe, 100% on the ground, catch, clip, hack, shoe, box etc. Often used by Pony Club as the demo pony in and out of the stable. Will happily have a beginner or tiny tot on her and be lead around for fun.

She is a true all rounder who loves to jump (up to 90cm) but is also very nice on the flat. She’s been to PC and Adult riding camps and is impeccable on the hunting field too. She awesome out on XC, so ODEs and rallies are her dream jobs!

Her accomplishments include winning PC Area Dressage, qualifying PC SJ Regionals and qualifying for NSEA Hickstead 80cm SJ and NSEA Addington in Prelim Dressage. She is always highly placed in Prelim dressage competition and in showing classes (Coloured, Family Pony and Young Rider).

Puzzle does have mild sweetitch. Managed by rugging and face mask 24/7 April to October.

We are selling because she's outgrown by our two daughters. She's in her prime and deserves to give another family the fun we've had.

  • Traditional Gypsy Cob on a TGCA passport.
  • Would do well in the Show ring but a fantastic allrounder.
  • Loves to Jump and has been in the rosettes in SJ, WH and Arena eventing / Eventer Derby.
Ultimate all round Cob. Plenty of bone and Feather.

Phantom is the Ultimate Cob and competent child's pony. He is rising 7 but still young and learning and for that reason would be best suited to a knowledgeable home with an older sibling or small adult to continue his education.

He is NOT a first ridden. No nastiness or major vices but given the opportunity could try it on. Just not a plod along.

He loves to jump and has done all areas of this including SJ, Wh, Arena Eventing and XC. He excels in these and has been in the ribbons when competing in all of these events.

Great to hack in company, needs a slightly more confident rider on his own for the first few yards! Been to the beach, farm rides, always behaves impeccably. Used to farm traffic and animals.

Turns out with mares and geldings in groups and on his own. Currently stables at night in winter but has been out 24/7 in summer on restricted grazing. Doesn't change if left in or not ridden for a length of time.
Been to camps and doesn't change in behaviour.

Good to bath, clip, shoe etc. Can be slightly opinionated by stamping his front legs but always more than manageable. He is the ultimate character with his strange whinnies and little quirks.

Although good to handle he could try to take the micky if allowed.

Loads and travels no problem in trailer or wagon on own or in company and will stand happily all day.

For these reasons the ideal home would have an older sibling or small adult to hep continue his education and help with handling.

Home is of upmost importance and we would be more than happy for the potential purchaser to try him in a number of settings.

This is truly the hardest decision but my daughter is still growing and hes has so much to give to another family.

Any questions are more than welcome. We really do want the best for this amazing talented cob and any future homes will be vetted and references will be required.

Loads of videos available and references from instructors.

His price includes a full wardrobe of two saddles, bridle and bits, rugs and even trophy tails feather boots!

Based South Cumbria.

Apollo (Polo) has the loveliest temperament, he is a really kind and loving pony. He can be a little wary until he gets to know you.

We have competed Polo up to 1m, he jumped bigger 1.15 with his previous owner but needs a confident/ accurate rider to jump the bigger tracks. He is still in newcomers. Currently out competing with a friend - videos available.

Polo is great to hack and have fun with and would also make a super allrounder for someone who wants to do a bit of everything. He can be handled by young children easily so is a great addition to anyones family.

This is a super hard sale as he is so lovely but we cannot keep them all and children grow.

Polo would prefer a quieter yard as he thrives off a 121 relationship and knowing his person rather than a super busy livery yard with lots of different staff.

He is great to load, clip, shoe, vet. Polo can wind suck with his feed bowl (a bit of a talent really).

Only genuine enquiries from those who want a real partner and friend in their pony.

Comet, 14’2 welsh section D 2013 , chestnut with 4 white socks.

On the ground : he is a well mannered yet curious welshie, will happily stand tied up to be groomed for hours. Good for farrier, vet, falls asleep when being clipped, loves being bathed but watch out it might turn into a water fight!! He can “put his parts on” for the dentist however after 5/10 mins he’s fine. Amazing with kids, dogs, traffic. Very respectful of fencing. The easiest boy with routines, in the 7 years I’ve owned him he’s had a mixture of being out 24/7, stables at night and stabled 24/7 and I’ve never had any problems.

Ridden : as bomb proof as they come however he is a Welsh who has his moments (happy to discuss and show videos of these said moments) A cracking little pony who absolutely adores being in work. Just as much as he loves being a field ornament. Would suit a confident person who wants to get out and have fun. Comet has a very careful jump on him, point and go type. Very good at getting you out of a dodgy stride whilst still being careful. When it comes to jumping he is forward and very bold therefore NOT a first pony.
One of the best things about this boy is you can go without riding for a few days/weeks but still hop on and he’ll be just the same as where you left off!


This is going to be an incredibly hard sale for me and it is through absolutely no fault of his own as he is one in a million but due to personal circumstances this is what’s best for him. I have produced him from a 4 year old and he’s definitely proven to be a very special little horse. He’s also very low mileage, for the past 3-4 years I’ve done very little ridden work with him as I haven’t had the time.

He can be funny with loading but after persuasion and patience he will load just not always straight away. When it comes to traveling, I personally avoid anything with a breast bar, despite that once he’s on the move as long as there’s hay for him he settles. This is due to me not taking him out much. He was an angel to load in the first two years I had him when I was going out regularly!!

This pony has been everywhere with me, arena hires, busy shows, beach rides, busy 4* event yards you name it hes come along! None of this phases him one bit. Happy to answer any questions about him please do not hesitate to contact me!

Regardless of the fact he’s not “fit” at the moment, I’m happy for anyone to try him.

The most important thing for me is finding the right home for comet therefore absolutely NO time wasters or dealers. 10 ?? home only (preferably his forever home)
Would suit a mother/daughter or a family with children. Just as much as he’d suit a confident teen wanting something to have fun on.

Full wardrobe included, minus his bridle. Price negotiable for the right home.

  • Compact Small Horse

Lusitano ( on green passport)

A very very difficult sale of the most perfectly easy & talented young smaller horse.

Cremello Gelding rising 6 years 15h

A Confidence Giving Compact Youngster with huge potential for dressage/ all rounder / show / loves his jumping too.

A wonderful opportunity for the right person to bring on their own uncomplicated easy young horse; there is NOTHING challenging about this little boy, he is a pleasure in every way and will be a delight to own.

Camborio was imported as a 2 yr old by myself , as a buy to sell. However his gentle , kind genuine and very easy trainability has led to me keeping him ! He is the perfect horse .

Blue eyes. Cream coat with 4 white socks, and white blaze.

Camborio has a huge Lusitano neck and a lot of bone, he is a compact little powerhouse who will EXCEL in dressage or any all rounder discipline.

He has a super super natural walk and canter, the walk is a 5 hoof over track and the canter is so deep and seated that his hind leg almost touches his chin! This little horse was made for dressage, but equally loves his jumping proving scopey, brave and natural at all he turns his hoof too.

He is correct, naturally balanced, uncomplicated, easy and very loving with a spiritual and majestic presence .

His colour is absolutely stunning, cream, but when the sun catches his coat he is pearlescent.

On familiar regular hacks he’s excellent and brave going out alone with confidence, in heavy traffic, unspooky, calm, and very much a confidence giving horse, despite his young age. He is still young , so new surroundings/ unfamiliar hacks I always give him more time and often go a few times with a friend before we venture out alone.

Schooling he is doing AMAZING, with natural ability, straightness, rhythm, tempo and balance he is very easy to ride. Walk, trot and canter is very well established, counter canter and laterals were just starting; but he shows natural skill already.

He is very well behaved in the arena and enjoys learning and schooling .

He equally enjoys pole work / jumping and lessons.

He’s been to dressage competitions and behaved impeccably even while the bigger horses are charging around .He scores well and judges love him.

He does need leg to work forward , he’s definitely not over sensitive or sharp . He would not suit a total novice rider due to his age, and requires a rider who can continue to gradually build his education while enjoying his easy character .

He can be ridden only once a week and never changes his personality, never needs lunging before riding ; always comes out ready to work while being calm and respectful.

Camborio would very much suit a mother / daughter share , lady rider or capable child. I am 5’4 and the size match works well. He takes up the leg, and once fully mature he will be a stocky, muscular, big boned horse.

He has beautiful strong feet and a FULL set of CLEAN Xrays (including neck and spine).

This spectacular Lusitano is only for sale as I have limited room

He will only be sold to the right person, in the right FOREVER home.

Loads well done, travels well , been to competition and shows , shod , good for farrier ,teeth , back and feet upto date; absolutely no vices , a very very easy horse who would be great for someone needing a well behaved uncomplicated little unicorn .

Please no dealers. No P/E. No joyriders / tyre kickers /dreamers. His price is his price I will not negotiate.

References will be required .

  • GREAT TO HACK OUT
  • LOVES A JUMP/XC

Great mother daughter share or all round low level pony.

Levi has been with me since a 3 year old, I’ve primarily hacked him and done a little bit of low level dressage and showjumping. He has also had some professional schooling, he will jump a course of 80cm, working at elementary level dressage and has done farm rides. He hasnt done much xc but when he has seen solid fences he jumps them !! He is most forward in open fields, slightly steadier kick along in the arena.

He is great to do in all ways , will live in or out, be out alone or in company, he isn’t needy and this is the reason he’s stuck around with me for so long as he’s so easy to have around.

Levi is a true low level riding club , happy hacking pony. He will accelerate but also go steady. He can have some fun, would have a buck if he got a bit whizzed up by his rider, but with his older rider he has never done this. For this reason I do not think Levi is best suited to a first pony home or beginner , Levi will teach his rider, or happily be a happy hacker. Being pushed in the arena and drilled on the flat is not his thing, yes he would take you around a dressage test, but please don’t apply to try Levi if you want him to be the next competition superstar - he much prefers a canter up a hill than 50 mins of hard flatwork in the arena!

Hacking he’s great, he will go alone or in company, he can be a little clingy to others when in a group but nothing putting your legs on won’t sort. He has been hacked out by kids and adults.

This is a truly honest advert as I’d like to find the perfect home for Levi as he is wasted with me as my priority is with my show horses and producing them, he’s the fun all round pony I just don’t have the time for. He’s good to shoe, tie up, clip, trim up, travel, fully vaccinated, teeth up to date.

If you like the sound of Levi please give me a call, he has to have his family or person out there to give him lots of love and attention.

Coco has the potential to be very competitive Eventing, Dressage, SJ or PC allrounder.

As a youngster she was shown successfully in hand in SP and SHP classes including winning at County Level. She then went on to breed two very smart foals.

Coco was then backed in the Summer of 2023.

She has attended PC rallies, XC schooled, competed SJ and dressage. She has beautiful paces and lovely jump. She is very willing and in the right home will be very competitive.

Coco is good to hack alone and in company, also good with farrier and clipping, and travels and loads well. she is easy to deal with on the ground and a real sweetie to deal with.

Coco is still very inexperienced so would not suit a novice, she is also more of a competition type then a kick along.

Owner is keen to sell due to her cost of livery. Home is the most important.

DO YOU HAVE A HORSE OR PONY SUITABLE FOR THE RDA?

WANTED ON LONG TERM LOAN / PURCHASE

Ref #: 249896
  • If you think your equine has what it takes, please contact one of the groups below
  • If you think your equine has what it takes, please contact one of the groups below

One of the main issues that RDA groups face is finding an Equine to suit the needs of the participants in their group.

We are regularly contacted with offers of Equines that are ‘the ideal RDA horse or pony’ when actually what is ideal for one group may not be for the next. We are trying to move away from the stereotypical view that RDA Equines are elderly and somewhat static, our horses and ponies need to be fit, healthy and athletic to cope with the lifestyle in an RDA group.

They can range from smaller, forward going ponies to weight carrying cobs and can take part in a range of disciplines from Riding to Carriage Driving, Vaulting to Show Jumping and Endurance.

If you contact an RDA Group about your Equine please be prepared to fill in an Equine Initial Interest Form which will ask you many questions about your horses’ temperament, health history, experience and lifestyle. Many groups will prefer to have an equine on trial to make sure they are suitable for the job.

For long term loans and purchases they will also be required to have a Pre-Purchase Examination.

If you think your equine has what it takes, please contact one of the groups below.

Benny is a 14.3 4yr old Full Connemara Gelding by Maam Hero.

He has been professionally broken and produced.

He is only 4 and so is not suitable for a novice however willing and has done everything right so far.

He doesn’t have a bad bone in him.

He is a smashing pony for the future and really has a stand out look about him.

Rides well in all 3 paces and is careful over a fence, which he has proven having been to a small show locally which was successful.

Ready for someone to continue his education and put their own stamp on.

Hacks alone and in company.

  • He is a great pony for someone to learn the ropes of competing on.

No vices, easy to clip, load, shoe ect.

Went to multiple pony club camps, pony club team sj and dressage, one day events and much more.

Competed upto 1.20 in Ireland when he was 6,7,8. came to England around 2019/20 and has competed upto 1.10.

He is currently jumping upto a 1m taking a younger rider up the ropes however she is getting too big for him. He would be an excellent pony for someone to wizz round 80/90 to be in the placings and turns on a sixpence.

Extremely sad sale as he brought both girls into the showjumping circuit and has taught them.

vettings and x-rays can be done.

tack to negotiate separately.

Viewings available this week in Wymeswold, Leicestershire.

He has competed successfully @NSEA, Pony Club and British Showjumping most recently winning at POYS 2024

He has done XC fences and will jump water.

Lucky would suit a child looking to move from unaffiliated to BS, Gosling Cup, Event Pony.

Fly has 3 lovely forward going paces with a consistent outline. Has an established simple dressage movements with potential to do more.

He is snaffle mouth for flatwork. And a gentlemen on the ground and loves attention. He’s good to shoe and has no vices. Sometimes he does need positive encouragement to load however recently has been loading with no problems.

Fly is forward going and enjoys jumping and always looking for the next fence. He confidently jump up 1m 5 and is currently competing at 90, with potential to go further with a more confident rider he is not a novice or a beginners first pony as he needs confident rider to bring out his full potential.in the past he has had problems with napping walking from stable to arena however this has never affected how he rides in the arena, in the past year we recently moved yards and haven’t come across this problem since.

He has shown great potential with cross country in the past and has been to quite a few xc hires and has jumped every fence pointed at.

We have had him for 4 years making this a very sad sale however due to rider moving onto horses there time has come to an end.

Bertie is a true all-round competition pony, with experience XC / SJ / WHP. Would happily do a novice dressage test as schooled beautifully.

He is easy to do, good for the farrier, vet and dentist. Hacks on and off road alone or in company.

He has been to 2 shows with myself recently and won both times SJ and WHP.

He has also been ridden by a competent child jumping an 80cm course without issue.

Bertie would be an ideal contender for riding club / STARS showing and WHP classes. Schooling over 90cm at home.

Bertie is not for a nervous or novice child and is not a first pony, but for a child or teenager looking to take the next step, there isn’t anything he will say no to.

  • Gelding

  • Three balanced paces with ample presence
  • Very brave over solid and coloured fences, jumps for fun
  • Clever, chirpy pony who wants to please

6 yr old Class1 Connemara Gelding by Caherlistrane Bay, out of a Robe Island Bay mare. Has been produced slowly and correctly and is now ready to be competitive. Jumping all solid and coloured fences confidently, including fillers, water trays, water, ditches, tiger traps, kennels, role tops, corners, skinnies etc on grass or on a surface. Currently popping round 80 - 90 cm, but jumping 1m+ at home. Locks on and takes you to a fence. Has three balanced paces, ample presence and a good measure of bone. Suited to a competent teenager or small adult who wants to progress through the classes.

Good to load, clip, shoe, worm etc and recently been checked over by the chiropractor and dentist with a clean bill of health. Hacks alone or in company (but still young so can be chirpy). Has successfully hunted for 2 seasons, stands well at the meet and is forward, loving to jump out of his stride. Very friendly, always the first to come to you, happy to live out but enjoys the attention when living in. Can be a bit excitable on the yard, but just loves company and his work.

This brave, clever pony will excel in the right hands and has a full sister already competing at Badminton Grass Routes.

Best suited to eventing or performance classes, but would also make a stunning WHP.

Will only be sold to a 5* competitive home who can reach this golden boys potential.
