• Must be HOYS quality
• Proven in the ring
• Suitable for a child just coming off the lead

We are on the lookout for a top class HOYS FYFR pony for my daughter who's just starting to come off the lead.

We are wanting a Dartmoor, standard Shetland or a Welsh Sec A.

Must have a proven track show record, be safe in all ways and be well schooled in the ring.

Must have no vices or lumps or bumps, safe for a little girl to go in the ring on her own but also can have fun doing beach rides, farm rides, hacking etc and for her to handle (with supervision)

Good budget for the pony

Happy to wait and put a deposit down to secure the right pony if not ready until the end of the year.

Would be coming to a loving experienced home produced family.

If you are thinking of selling that special pony or you know of any please let us know thankyou x

• Superb hunting, on and off the lead
• Careful sj competed arena eventing been to pc camp

Very sad sale of our wonderful shetland who has made our daughters racing dreams come true of being selected for LHIS, Hong Kong, Prague, Badminton, Burghley, Windsor and many more, he is sensible and competitive !

He has succesfully competed sj, arena eventing, been to pc camp, loves going hunting, mounted games and even had a go at horseball !

He hacks alone and in company, my children go off for hours playing in the woods building jumps, crossing rivers etc, he leads really nicely off a horse so is easy to keep fit in the winter months whilst the kids are forced to go to school.

He was succesfully shown as a youngster and many people have said he would do well in the show ring, he has good uphill conformation and is level headed enough to show and race if his new jockey wished to do so. He is good to shoe, clip, catch etc my daughter does everything herself with him.

This is a very sad sale but at only 11 he would be so bored sat in the field doing nothing, he is only offered to a 5 star knowledgable home, many more photos and endless videos available.

• Lead rein and First Ridden
• Safe for children to handle
• Ride and Drive

Timmy is a super lead-rein/first-ridden pony and a perfect little family pony.

At 10.3hh, he’s an ideal size — small enough for little legs without being so tiny that they quickly outgrow him.

We’ve had lots of fun with him on the lead rein, at local shows and showjumping. He was used as a first ridden in his previous home and has been brilliant for my son learning to steer and become more independent.

He has a great little jump — we’ve only jumped around 30cm on the lead rein, but he definitely has scope for more. He does not mind an unbalanced rider over a fence at all. He's really safe!

Timmy is also broken to drive and loves it — great fun whizzing along in the cart!

He also knows a few tricks, including bowing.

He is super safe for children to lead and handle, doesn’t bite or kick, is great with other horses, easy to catch, an angel to clip and very good for the farrier. Barefoot never needed shoes as he's a tough sort.

Fully vaccinated and wormed. No lumps, bumps or sarcoids.

Minke is quite simply the pony every mother dreams of finding.

A stunning 8-year-old fully registered black Standard Shetland mare, beautifully bred, with exceptional conformation, an abundance of hair, clean limbs and the most wonderful temperament.

Minke has been totally home produced and successfully competed as a Lead Rein and First Ridden across Showing, Dressage, Showjumping and Working Hunter, including placing in HOYS qualifiers contested.

She is a fabulous-moving pony, effortlessly covering the ground while remaining smooth and comfortable for a tiny jockey. Most importantly, she has a genuine desire to please and gives her all every time.

Minke’s breeding is outstanding. Her full sister qualified for HOYS as a Lead Rein pony, while another closely related pony was crowned Open Shetland of the Year and M&M Lead Rein Pony of the Year at HOYS.

Away from the competition ring, Minke is every bit as special.

She hacks alone or in company, is excellent in all traffic seen, loads and travels happily, clips beautifully and is a dream for the farrier. She does not need hours of working in or ear plugs.

At home she is happy to stand for hours being groomed, pampered and adored, and is equally happy taking her little jockey for a quiet hack along the beach.

Kind, genuine, honest, willing and wonderfully straightforward, Minke really is the sort of pony that can be enjoyed by the whole family. She has been loved and cherished and is now looking for a very special 5⭐️ home where she will be treasured and given the opportunity to continue doing what she loves.

Reluctantly writing this as I never thought the time would come where I would have to. An unexpected change in circumstances forces the sale of this fantastic versatile one in a million mother’s dream pony.

Nellie an 11 year old Registered Standard Shetland Mare 40” . Bought direct from the breeder we have been the only home she’s ever known.

She needs no introduction having shown Inhand to a high level all over the country with huge success. She’s an excellent driving pony aswell as a fabulous ridden pony, both on and off the lead. She’s been Ridden off lead at County, Riding Club & Agriculture Level by a young adult aswell as a child with huge success.

She has been the most fabulous Lead Rein pony for my Precious Granddaughter for the past 2 years. Granddaughter is now absolutely obsessed with all things pony and Nellie has excelled in her role as her starter pony. Granddaughter now moving on to her Dartmoor pony who also rides and drives, so we feel Nellie should move on and let another family enjoy all she has to offer.

Nellie is excellent to do in every way and is super with young children.

This is a heartbreaking sale for us and one prompted only by an injury to one of my mares that is proving very expensive to treat/repair and has left me with nothing to ride for the next year. So as my granddaughter does not need two ponies it is our decision to let Nellie go whilst I find another to compete myself.

Absolutely no time wasters, loans, lwvtb, payment plans etc, etc! This is a sale of an incredible Shetland pony who is worth her weight in gold.

Comes with all her rugs (hundreds probably one for each day of the year 😂).

I bought this special little pony at weaning, he’s made all of our dreams come true and more. An incredibly hard sale due to my daughter heading down the jumping route with her new pony, he has taken the backseat and truly deserves to be someone’s number one again.

Top class Shetland with loads of scope and very true to type.

Lovely natured and easy to do in all ways. Recently broken and goes beautifully on the lead and rides around the place off the lead rein just needs further education in the school.

Masses of bone. Won many times in hand in excellent company and has been ridden around at shows and not phased at all by the atmosphere .

Fantastic prospect for next season especially the HOYS non Welsh Lead Rein.

Sadly my children have outgrown our little miniature Shetland pony and now sadly we have to find it in our hearts to let her go to her next loving home. 

Chelsea is just the cutest and prettiest little “unicorn” ridden lead rein pony! She loves attention, has always looked after my children and helped them gain confidence learning to ride their first little pony. She could equally be a fantastic companion pony. 

We would like her to go to a loving home that will enjoy her as much as our children have.

Coppice Moonshadow

Abbotsford Ice Cube x Riccalton Marigold

6yr old grey Shetland. Available on behalf of stud.

Moonshadow is a true-to-type, leg-in-each-corner stamp of a Shetland. My 8yr old daughter has enjoyed huge first ridden success with him this year, including:

⭐ 1st and Champion TSR at Three Counties

⭐ 1st and Champion NPS First Ridden at NCPA Staffs

⭐ 1st and Champion NPS First Ridden at NPS Area 7

⭐ 1st Novice Ridden at the Shetland Performance Show

⭐ Multiple placings in HOYS qualifiers

My daughter has also started her side saddle journey on Moonshadow in fine style. Together, they have taken part in demonstrations at county shows and enjoyed some fantastic results:

⭐ 1st Cygnet Equitation, National Side Saddle Show

⭐ 1st Junior Concours, National Side Saddle Show

⭐ 1st Junior Concours, NPS Summer Championships

It takes a genuinely rock-steady pony to do this job, and Moonshadow has excelled himself. He is also ridden by my 4yr old son, is excellent in traffic and safe in open spaces.

In previous seasons Moonshadow has excelled on the lead, including narrowly missing his HOYS with a 2nd in 2025.

Moonshadow has recently started jumping and is showing plenty of scope, much like his sister Coppice Mollie! He is still green in this area and just needs more mileage to develop his potential.

He is an absolute pleasure to have around. The children do everything with him, and we have found him easy to catch, trim, box and clip. He has no vices or hang-ups. He has no known health issues, including laminitis or sweet itch, and has not had a day sick or sorry with us.

We would love Moonshadow to find a lovely family showing home where he will be appreciated and adored as much as he has been with us. He can be seen and tried near Solihull.
