9yo registered Welsh sec A mare. Available for part loan, full loan or sale, happy to consider any option as she is a sweet pony, but not quite right for my daughter at this time.

She is 9 but has only been a lead rein pony this year, previously ridden by older child off the lead rein. She is good on the lead rein, although she is green, she is sweet and willing and coming on well and I think will make a great lead rein pony in time. Currently just walk and trot, in the arena at home, but with more miles under her belt I think she will enjoy doing PC and showing and everything else.

She was ridden off the lead rein by an older child in her previous home, but she hasn’t done this with us as we don’t have a suitable jockey so I have no first hand experience of her off the lead rein.

My daughter is 5 and has been getting on really well with her on the lead rein, out hacking and in the arena. She is fine on the roads, but need to make sure cars pass wide and slow as otherwise she can be a bit nervous of them. I think in time she will make a super all round pony, she has no bad habits and no issues, she is just a bit green as hasn’t done and seen much in her 9 years.

The reason I’m looking for a new jockey for her is that my 5yo daughter isn’t really interested in riding, she mainly wants to paint her hooves multi colours, plait flowers into her mane and hang out in the stable with her. While the pony is fine with this and is good to groom, and I’ve never had a problem before, but I do feel I need to be there supervising all the time and I hold the pony while my daughter is grooming. I can honestly say she has never done anything nasty but the pony does look nervous sometimes and I’m always there to make sure the situation is safe. I would prefer to find for my daughter an older pony that is happy to painted plaited, dressed up, brushed and played around with that I feel happy leaving my daughter in the stable. (If you have a pony like this for sale let me know!)
The pony is easy to keep, very well behaved on the yard, she lives in or out and is good to catch and load. No health problems, no laminitis history, no vices. A sweet and willing pony.

Sale wise I am asking £1950, full loan I’m happy for her to move yards. And for part loan she is kept in east wellow near Romsey with good facilities, financial contribution to be discussed.
Please only enquire if you are an experienced and knowledgeable home, I’m afraid I will not be taking enquiries from first time horse owners as I do not think it would be a good match.
