Re-advertised due to sale falling through (happy to discuss).
Please, serious enquiries only. The last time I advertised him I received hundreds of messages, so please don't be offended if I don't reply straight away – I do have a life outside of horses!
Please read the advert carefully before enquiring. Pimms is a laid-back, kick-along type and would suit someone looking for a happy hacker or low-level Riding Club horse. He is not a competitive pony for someone wanting to jump 1m+ tracks.
He absolutely thrives on the hunting field and gives a lovely, confidence-giving ride. Once the hunting season starts, I'll be taking him out again if he hasn't sold, and his price will increase.
Pimms is a 14.2hh, 11-year-old registered New Forest gelding and the perfect safe, steady all-rounder with fantastic conformation and a lovely temperament.
He has completed a full season hunting with the New Forest Hounds, where he behaved impeccably throughout. He is happy to ride at either the front or the back of the field and takes everything in his stride. He has also competed at low-level showing, showjumping and dressage, always proving genuine, mannerly and willing.
Pimms is never hot-headed or silly. He is excellent in heavy traffic, around farm machinery and in open spaces, and is happily ridden in a snaffle at all times.
He hacks alone or in company, will happily lead other horses, and is unfazed by pigs, donkeys, sheep, cattle, flies and other everyday distractions. Very little seems to bother him.
He is a laid-back pony who is more "kick along" than forward-going, making him ideal for someone looking for a safe, relaxed horse to enjoy rather than a sharp or competition-focused ride.
He is easy to clip, bathe, shoe and pull his mane, and loads and travels well in both trailers and horseboxes.
In the field, he gets on well with everyone – mares, geldings, Shetlands and anything else he's turned out with.
On the ground, he is affectionate, easy to handle and has a real Labrador personality around the yard.
Although only 14.2hh, he takes up the leg well and has comfortably carried riders up to 5'10" without looking small.
Pimms would suit someone looking for a kind, genuine, confidence-giving pony to enjoy hunting, hacking, Riding Club activities, low-level competitions or simply having fun. He is a lovely, honest pony looking for a home where he can be enjoyed and appreciated.
