    Height: 14.2hh

    Age: six

    Gender: gelding

    Selling points: “We bought ‘Jiminy Cricket’ as a three-year-old and our two daughters backed him and have brought him on slowly. He is an outstanding hunter and is more than happy to go in the field or up front with the huntsman or on his own. He is fantastic with hounds and jumps anything you point him at. He rarely misses a Saturday with the Duke of Buccleuch and has masses of eventing potential. No vices.”

    Height: 14.2hh

    Age: 12

    Gender: gelding

    Selling points: “This pony is a genuine all-rounder and is easy to handle. He’s a careful, clear jumper and can score strong dressage marks, but he is just as fun going on hacks with friends. He has done unaffiliated showjumping, dressage and eventing, and is snaffle mouthed with no vices.”

    5. ‘Top jumping pony’

    Screen Shot 2016-01-18 at 16.20.14

    Height: 14.1hh

    Age: 14

    Gender: mare

    Selling points: “This mare is one of the most honest, consistent ponies on the showjumping circuit. She is snaffle mouthed, brave as a lion and always tries her heart out. This sort of pony is really hard to find and her record speaks for itself. She has £1,084 in BS winnings and 501 points. She has no vices and is more like an eight-year-old than 14 due to low mileage. She has also had success going cross-country and has hunted with her previous owner.”

    Age: 19

He was also the winner of the Pony Club novice dressage championships and was placed in the novice eventing championships too. As well as being a dressage superstar, he has also been to Pony Club camp and competed on all the teams. He is a safe and reliable hack in company or alone and is a joy to look after.”
