12hh, 11 year old Welsh x English Riding Pony - Gelding.
Palomino in winter \ Silver Taffy in Summer
Zac is my daughters first pony and has been part of our family for 7 years, He has taken her from lead line and harness, through to independent arena riding, out on trails and competing at stock horse youth & pony club musters & events.
For sale as my daughter now has a bigger horse & her little brothers sadly prefer motorbikes. 😪
Zac is an easy lead line pony, both on foot or from another horse and will run beside you anywhere or over anything!
He is suited to a confident beginner or above, for independent riding out of an arena.
He enjoys jumping and has never refused anything asked of him.
He is competitive in sporting and flat work / dressage at pony club.
Zac has done miles of road work (child ridden & harness) a few months of mustering / cattle work in his early days, pleasure, trail riding, some youth Stock Horse events, dressage & pony club musters and competitions. He always returns ribbons.
He has three even paces, uses correct leads & has a snaffle mouth. Good on the lunge, to teach young riders or safe for independent beginner riding instruction in an arena.
He is amazing in harness, we use him to train weanlings and breakers to lead.
He would make a great competition harness pony!
Zac is currently working with a natural head carriage, however it does not take long to bring him back into frame.
No malice, buck, bolt, shy .. easy for kids to do everything with, catch, handle, float, feed, rug etc.
Great feet, so no need to shoe, but has had them when work dictates.
No worries with dogs, bikes or farm equip.
Zac is a good doer, low maintenance. Never foundered.
If your young rider is receiving instruction, Zac will develop kindly with your littlie, as he has had a solid education and responds well to aids. If they just want to flap about, he’s good with that too.
When worked regularly, he is suitable for just about anyone to ride independently. He is free moving when needed yet push along based on who/what is being asked of him.
We typically ride him fortnightly, with the exception of school holidays and his worst trait is a few pigroot’s on the lunge for the first few laps or canter strides if ridden. This behaviour has presented since it has become necessary to keep him yarded and hand fed. Once he has had a chance to stretch out, he rarely puts a foot wrong.
Zac’s ideal home will be with a family who ride him regularly, or have an experienced horse person in the family to easily push him forward through any initial freshness.
- He may be a lead line pony for now, with the view to moving on to independent riding.
- He might be a confident beginners second pony, ready to participate competitively in pony club or the show ring.
- He might be someone’s new harness prospect for pleasure or performance!
Zac is a very showy pony, he is well bred, although not registered and never fails to turn heads.
He’s a super useful and fun pony to have about, for the right horsey home.
