My 14 year old daughter wants to buy or loan a horse to keep in the Brighton and surrounding area. She is 5 foot and weighs about 52 kilos. She has been riding over 5 years.  She is confident and would consider a mare or gelding of 14.2 hands or over .  She needs a safe , experienced, and easy-going friend who she can hack out with alone or in company, is safe in traffic, easy to catch, shoe, clip and stable and would like pony club events and camps.

 

Please contact Maria Hawton-Mead on 07973616710.  Thank you.

??Charles??(Ice Blue Charlie)????
14 Year old Gelding in Cremello and White.
13.1h
Welsh X Lewitzer Sports horse ?? Looking for a new home ??
Such a sad sale ??
My 14 Year old daughter has very sadly outgrown Charles. He is a lovely pony, loves jumping, has done some PC rallies, loves to hack out alone or in company. He is good with the farrier, good to stable, easy turnout and bring in.
Charles is such a giver in return he LOVES lots of cuddles
??He is a dressage pony
??He would be a perfect small teenagers/adults pony??
??He is definitely a second pony??
??He needs a confident little rider to have fun with and take him forward??

In the right hands he will have a lovely partnership.

Would be perfect for anyone local to take Charles LWVTB but for him to stay at his present yard based in the beautiful Ashdown Forest ?? ??

He is up to date with all his vaccinations, wormed & shod to date ??
Has a Full Passport ??
Based in East Sussex
Please message me privately to discuss

Viewings and Vetting welcome
PLEASE NO DEALERS
