Very sad sale of this sweet gelding who has been my daughter’s first pony and a wonderful family pet for the last few years.
Disco is 11.2 Welsh part-bred (green passport) and 17 years young. He loves hacking through forests and along country lanes and isn’t phased by farm machinery or traffic. He did mini Pony club camp last summer all off the lead rein with my 7 year old and they had a lovely time.
He loves his jumping and has been competing him at 30 and 40cm assisted for school at NSEA and for pony club, competing at Bicton Pony Club Mini champs in August 2024 and has already qualified for 2025. He will jump anything in front of him and doesn’t mind wobbly riders as he will follow the adult wherever they lead. In Feb half term 2025, he came 1st at Bovington RAC showjumping comp in the L/R 40cm and 4th in the Assisted 40cm, (clear rounds for both).
He has been to the Pony Club meet and behaved beautifully. He also went cubbing and hunting on the lead rein with his previous owners. He is happy to be led from a horse and has a quick stride so he keeps up well.
Disco does not really like schooling in an enclosed arena - he is fine when an adult is walking alongside/ on the lead rein or with my older daughter but is quite scared of shouty instructors and sometimes naps back to the gate or where the adults are standing. He never bucks or rears but if you come up behind him with a stick, he will scoot forward as we think he has sadly had a bad experience in the past.
We are still in touch with his previous owners and who also love him very much and we can both provide loads of photos and videos. He will only go to a lovely family home where he’ll be appreciated and well-cared for. £3000 incl. tack
