"Genuine Step Up" Black Gelding Pony Club Pony

A genuine step-up pony, offering more than a typical first ridden—ideal as a confident child’s “1.5 pony.”
He began his career as a valued polo pony, educating young riders, before transitioning into a successful Pony Club and working equitation pony, competing nationally with success.
17-year-old black gelding who has been with us for the past three years. During this time, he has taken part in Pony Club rallies, dressage, showjumping (up to 40cm), arena eventing, and working equitation.
He is an honest, steady jumper who produces a consistent round, without over-jumping, but will step up when asked. He is well-schooled in working equitation obstacles, confidently tackling bridges, water, gates, and is comfortable using the vara.
He has accompanied us on challenging family holidays, including trekking through tough terrain, dense woodland, and among herds of stallions, mares, and foals—always behaving impeccably. He has also participated in working equitation displays.
He has attended multiple stay-away shows and is happy hacking both alone and in company.
Good to catch, shoe, box, and clip, and is sensible in traffic.
More “kick than pull”, always ridden in a snaffle.
Only for sale as he has sadly been outgrown.
