🌟 The sort of pony everyone hopes to find! 🌟

Ruby is a lovely 14hh mare with a fantastic temperament and so much to offer. She is kind, genuine and a pleasure to have around, with a willing attitude and a real love for her work.

What makes Ruby so special is her combination of a sensible, reassuring nature out hacking and an enthusiastic, forward-going attitude in the arena. She offers the best of both worlds for someone looking for a versatile pony to enjoy a variety of activities with.

🌿 HACKING – A REAL CONFIDENCE-GIVER

Ruby is a genuinely uncomplicated mare with no quirks. She doesn't nap, buck, rear or bolt, and she isn't the type to become fresh or silly after time off. She is happy to hack alone or in company and takes traffic and busy surroundings in her stride.Hacking is one of Ruby’s real strengths.Cars, lorries, buses, tractors, farm machinery, motorbikes, cows and general countryside activity are all familiar sights to her. She is a reassuring ride out.

Ruby is not the type to become silly simply because she has had a few days off, making her a straightforward pony to fit into everyday life.

She absolutely loves beach rides and going into the water, making her a fantastic companion for someone who enjoys getting out and about and having fun beyond the arena.

🏇 ARENA & JUMPING – BRAVE, WILLING & FUN

Ruby genuinely enjoys having a job to do. In the arena she is forward-going, responsive and enthusiastic, so she is best suited to a competent rider rather than a complete novice looking for a quiet first pony.

For the right rider, she is great fun. She has a willing attitude towards her work and enjoys getting involved.

Ruby is a brave, genuine jumper who enjoys tackling a variety of fences, including fillers, trays, rustic fences and cross-country-style obstacles. She approaches her jumping with enthusiasm and is a lovely prospect for someone wanting a pony to enjoy a range of activities with.

She is not a kick-along, plod-along type in the arena; she has energy, enthusiasm and a fun side that a capable rider can appreciate.

❤️ TEMPERAMENT & HANDLING – A PLEASURE TO OWN

Ruby has a lovely nature and is a pleasure to deal with both on the ground and in her day-to-day routine.

She is straightforward for the everyday jobs and is happy to be:

* Groomed and handled

* Caught and led

* Tacked up

* Loaded

* Clipped and bathed

* Seen by the farrier

* Seen by the dentist

* Handled in and out the stable

She is a kind, genuine mare who makes daily care enjoyable and uncomplicated.

✨ THE COMPLETE PACKAGE

Ruby is a lovely combination of sensible, sweet and fun. She offers enjoyable hacking, enthusiasm in the arena and a genuine willingness to get involved in different activities.

For someone looking for a versatile 14hh pony who can enjoy adventures out hacking, beach rides and jumping, while still having plenty of character and ability, Ruby has so much to offer.

She would suit a home that appreciates her kind nature, enjoys an active lifestyle with their pony and can make the most of her forward-going, enthusiastic side when ridden in the arena.

A genuine all-rounder with a lovely temperament and plenty to give her next person. ❤️

📩 Serious enquiries welcome. Videos and further information available to genuinely interested homes. A knowledgeable, suitable home is sought for this lovely mare.

  • Actively looking for the best Pony Club ponies
  • Some fabulous knowledgeable homes waiting
  • No fees for sellers

I have motivated clients looking for genuine, kind, quality and proven ponies to take part in all Pony Club activities.

The ponies I would love to hear about are those not needing to be advertised to secure a new home. There is no harm in finding out whether I know of a better home and match. Perhaps you worry about your child finding it upsetting seeing their old pony regularly at rallies etc - then selling out of area could be a better solution.

These are motivated buyers receiving guidance as to what will likely suit their child - not the timewasters regularly reported. In most cases homes are also knowledgeable: simply lacking in time to conduct a search themselves. Most will also wait for the right pony so if you are not ready to sell yet - that is not an issue.

There are some decent budgets available relative to age and medical conditions etc.

All leads will be handled with discretion. Please feel free to give me a call, drop me a WhatsApp or check out my Instagram page @theponysearchagent

Shadow – 14.2hh, 9-Year-Old Connemara Gelding

A lovely all-rounder and ideal mother/daughter share!

Shadow is a genuine, much-loved pony who would make an ideal first pony for someone moving on from the riding school or a fantastic mother/daughter share.

He has enjoyed a varied lifestyle, attending showjumping competitions, Pony Club rallies and cross-country schooling. He is well-behaved at shows, takes everything in his stride and isn’t fazed by fillers or fences. He is a kind, confidence-giving pony who will always try his best to help his rider out.

Shadow is also lovely to hack and sensible in all types of traffic, making him a pleasure to enjoy both in and out of the arena.

He good to catch and turn out, happy living alone or with other horse, good to shoe and travel etc

Shadow enjoys having a varied lifestyle and thrives when he has a purpose outside of the school. He is not a pony who enjoys being schooled every day at home and can become a little sour and lazy if his routine becomes repetitive. He would therefore suit a home looking to enjoy hacking, Pony Club activities, competitions and a variety of adventures together.

This is a truly sad sale of a much-loved pony, as his current riders have unfortunately outgrown him. We are looking for a special next home where Shadow will be loved and enjoyed as much as he is now.

A lovely opportunity to find a genuine all-rounder to have fun with and enjoy making memories together

Marcus is a real character with the sweetest personality. He absolutely loves attention and cuddles and is a very laid-back, easy-going boy to have around.

He has experience in all disciplines, including hacking, schooling, showjumping and cross-country. Although he is capable of jumping, he isn’t naturally the most forward-going pony in the school and can need some encouragement. However, take him cross-country and he’s a completely different pony! He absolutely loves it and really comes into his own.

I feel Marcus would be happiest in a varied home where he can enjoy plenty of hacking, fun rides, cross-country and potentially hunting, rather than a competitive showjumping or schooling-focused home.

Marcus has so much love to give and deserves a home where he can have fun and be someone’s best friend.

She’s steady and safe on the lead rein but equally jumps up to 70cm showjump courses and has been cross country at Hickstead.
Great to hack alone or in company, good in traffic and open spaces.

She’ll live in or out in any herd and keeps herself to herself.

Melody has clean legs, she’s not covered in lumps / bumps but does have low grade EMS which is very manageable with wet hay and a muzzle when the summer grass comes through.

Would suit a child’s first pony, be a great Pony Club type or a perfect mother / daughter share.

Wanted LWVTB

  • Temperament is more important than breed
  • 13hh - 15 2hh
  • RDA centre needing LWVTB/Loan
  • Temperament is more important than breed

We are looking for any breed for LWVTB as they will need to be trialled in our RDA environment before purchasing to see if they're suited to this lifestyle before a participant can ride them. This is as much for the ponies as the suitability for riders.

Must already be ridden and has to be over 5 yrs old (RDA rules). Can accept some quirks but must be safe for our disabled riders. They will also have to pass a stage 2 vetting which can be arranged whilst on loan.

We can offer a high standard of care, a light work load so older ages are acceptable if sound.

We have stables but they live out as much as possible even throughout winter. We can offer small herd/individual turnout.

If you would like to check out our RDA centre we are online and Facebook as Elisabeth Curtis Centre.
