Pony For Loan

Please note, allowing members and others to post adverts for members is a service which Southdown East branch of the Pony Club is offering to members as a benefit of membership.  It is done in good faith and without any liability on the part of the Pony Club.  If you enter into any arrangement advertised or purchase any item following an advertisement listed by the branch, you do so as a private individual, without recourse to the Pony Club, and must satisfy yourself that any product or arrangement is suitable for your circumstances.


For loan: friendly 11hh2 skewbald mare. Faultless in hand, like a little pet. Really sweet natured. No problems with farrier/dentist/vet/boxing/catching etc. my daughter wants a break from riding and she's too good to be left in the field. She's been on the lead rein for my 4 year old daughter who's a complete beginner and has been great. Very well behaved in the school and has popped over 40cm show jumps. She's hacked out a lot and is generally fine walking and trotting along, she has spooked a couple of times but nothing major - she was nervous around livestock but seems to have settled. We adore her…the only issue is she has become very attached to her stable mate as it's been just the two of them for a year and she can get a bit silly when separated from her. She would be fine as a lead rein pony but better for a slightly older rider - she responds really well when my 7 year old daughter gets on her. She's done some working rallies, ping club camp and grass roots showjumping competitions. Looking for a happy, busy, loving home to send her to for about a year.

Ricco for loan

Please note, allowing members and others to post adverts for members is a service which Southdown East branch of the Pony Club is offering to members as a benefit of membership.  It is done in good faith and without any liability on the part of the Pony Club.  If you enter into any arrangement advertised or purchase any item following an advertisement listed by the branch, you do so as a private individual, without recourse to the Pony Club, and must satisfy yourself that any product or arrangement is suitable for your circumstances.


Ricco is an 8 year old 13.2, gorgeous dappled grey, who is looking for a loan home that will love him as much as we do. He is a very honest pony and forward going, so will need a competent jockey . Ricco has competed up to 70cm but jumps 1m at home and could potentially go bigger with a smaller jockey. My daughter is now 5ft 7 and too tall. She has been riding him for two years since she was 10 years old. He is only up for a full loan so no buyers please as I have a younger daughter who will need him in a couple of years or so. My daughter has done fancy dress, pony camp, rallies, SJ, XC, ODE, NSEA champs, Sunshine tour, beach rides. He loves to do everything although we have not done much dressage with him. He always comes home with a rosette for jumping ! Ricco has one vice in that he gives a little bunny hop when he is pleased with himself but this is very occasional. He can be turned out with any horse and always prefers to have a field buddy. Excellent to load and clip. Perfect for dentist or farrier. Bombproof on the road.
Ricco must stay in Sussex and go to a 5* yard with other horses. Homes will be vetted.
Please ring 07933742403 for further information.

 

Branch Website

Please be aware that the branch website (http://sdhepc.org/) has developed a technical fault and is currently not available for online rally bookings.  The problem is under investigation and we hope normal service will be resumed ASAP.
