Introduction: Canyon Sirius, known as Simon, is a 9-year-old liver chestnut Australian Riding Pony gelding standing approximately 13hh. By Canyon Toscanini out of Canyon Serenade, he is registered with APSB, WPCS and EA. Located in Moss Vale, NSW, he is a highly educated and versatile pony with a strong interschool and allround performance background.
Education, skills and experience: Simon has a superior level of education and experience across dressage, showing, showjumping, eventing and pony club activities. He has competed successfully, including placings at Sydney Royal led classes and at Tamworth Interschools in both showjumping and eventing. He is a genuine allrounder, with experience in trail riding, cross country schooling, lunging, bareback riding and swimming, and is well exposed to a wide range of environments including roads, farm machinery, livestock and busy stabling situations.
General demeanour under saddle: Under saddle, Simon is a willing, responsive and adaptable pony who adjusts well to the competence of his rider. He is soft and light in the bridle, willingly collects and is tolerant of rider mistakes. He is generally calm and reliable, with the ability to transition from a quiet child’s mount to a more forward performance pony when required. He is straightforward and genuine.
Current workload / fitness: Simon is currently in work and being ridden three or more times per week while actively competing. He does require regular riding, ideally four or more times per week, to remain consistent and may benefit from lunging prior to riding after a spell.
Handling: Simon is easy to catch and straightforward to handle. He ties up calmly, is easy to clip and wash, and is good for the vet. He is tolerant of handler mistakes and generally easy to manage in day-to-day situations.
Behaviour: Simon is a kind, genuine pony with no vices. As with most performance ponies, if overfed on ‘hot’ feed and also under worked, he may become hot or less reliable under saddle - however, this is easily prevented with a grain and soy free feed.
Feeding and management: Simon is a good doer and is currently managed on a fibre-based diet including Digestive EQ, pellets and supplements. His management is flexible, and he can be kept in a herd, on his own or in full-time stabling.
Medical history: Simon has no past or present medical issues. He is vaccinated for tetanus and strangles, had his dental completed in June 2025 and is currently barefoot. A vet check is welcome at the buyer’s expense.
Rider Suitability: Simon is suitable for a novice rider under regular professional instruction and would suit a child, junior or young rider looking for a versatile and capable pony. He is an ideal interschool mount, offering both confidence and performance, provided he is managed and ridden consistently.
Reason for sale: Simon is offered for sale due to being outgrown and a reduction in numbers. He is ideally suited to a home looking for a genuine, allround pony to enjoy across a variety of disciplines and as a valued family member.
