Riding History:
We are looking for a family horse and best friend I am in my mid 40s and rode for many years – as a child to late teens, I rode competively in the ring/dressage. I am getting back into riding and having lessons to get me ride fit. I am a confident rider. My 8 year old daughter is a beginner and currently in lessons, she is being taught properly in a round yard, no reigns, then no saddle for her balance etc she can now rise and sit trot off the lunge comfortably, stop, start and turn. She will be proceeding to canter after the holidays. Dream Horse: See below – A mare that we could later breed would be a bonus, so good bloodlines. Although gelding also fine. Riding Ambitions: Looking for a patient “been there and done that” pony my daughter is quite tall and is growing like grass so that is why we are looking for pony around 15hh ( a touch smaller could be ok) Clearly needs to be safe/sound and something that she may use for interschools when she begins high school – she has showed some interest in dressage. Please note this will not be a competitive home per say, we are simply looking for a horse that has plenty of experience/education as I enjoy an educated ride, due to my show days and a pony can help my daughter continue to gain confidence and skill – maybe ex show/dressage that maybe ready for an easier life, with weekly rides in the arena/trail, tonnes of love & attention. Notes: oct 29- sending Sasha horses every day pretty much! Oct 8- Vet checking one next week. Tuesday onwards in QLD

One OTT and one Cob cross which was purchased for pleasure harness but proving to be unsuitable. Dream Horse: Feel like I’m searching for the impossible !

But have been looking for quite some time so as long as ready to go, friendly and good manners I am flexible. Riding Ambitions: I only ride for pleasure so something suitable to drive every week and if broken to saddle then will be ridden on average once a week as well. Harness 9/2 LEAH BOUGHT WILSON from Utopia 7/2 sent leah a hello message, checking to see if she wants to expand her parameters at all. 2/2 sent leah a notice that Utopia performanvce horses are back in action.

Looking for my husband Paul. He has done some trail riding and a bit of riding around the farm. He is soft and gentle with all animals and, while tall and fairly athletic, is not heavy. Dream Horse: Paul needs a friendly, no fuss, safe mount that will become his friend. Experienced, bom-proof, horse that enjoys a trail ride, cuddles and treats. Something that will be happy to bum around a paddock a lot of the time, and then be pulled out and go for a (low speed) adventure somewhere. Must be easy to catch, float, rug, do feet and teeth. Does not need to be super pretty or athletic or classically educated, just needs to be easy, level headed and happy to plod along. Riding Ambitions: Paul’s main goal is to be able to feel safe around his new furry friend. And to be able to take him to cool places and ride on the trails. Notes: 29/10 – search on hold at the moment whilst they work out if the ones they have might suit. 5/10 touched base with olga, she has been in difficult signal. any type suitable for beginner trail riding and multiple riders

Riding History:
I started riding at age 9, got my own horse at age 12. I was very competitive at Pony Club in everything (games to showing to grade 3 eventing). At 18, I got an OTT and evented level 2. then stopped riding. I returned to riding in my early 30s and had an OTT and a 16.3hh WB who I evented HRCV grade 3 on. I sold him 7 years ago. This year, I have started riding again under instruction on my friend’s WB doing mainly dressage. This has stopped in lockdown though as I live in Melbourne. Dream Horse: 15.2-16hh – nice movement and a love of jumping. Must be good out on trails and rarely refuse jumps. Bonus points for brown or black horses and ones that are a bit smoochy! The dream is the horse has had some exposure or success at events but I am beginning to give up hope of that. Riding Ambitions: I am looking to do a bit of everything. I will be under instruction and will be able to get a trainer to help if the horse is a little green. My ambition is to do ARC, trail riding, low level eventing and straight dressage. I am not a nervous rider but I don’t want a horse that bucks or bolts. The odd pigroot is ok. Bad ground manners ok. Horse must load on the float well. Notes: 9/10 lucys horse passed vet and is being transported to victoria on tuesday 12th. Nikki to call/message and discuss a potential partial refund

We are thrilled to be able to assist you. We will start the hunt immediately and you will be started to send options that may suit! With your budget obviously being a touch lower, I think more the older style with plenty of experience and calm nature but slightly winding down may suit? Hopefully similar to what you were thinking. Please shoot through or feel free to call anytime – we will text / email options as we discover them. You will hear from either myself, Nikki or my co-worker an Match maker extraordinaire Heleni (H) will be in contact soon, Many thanks,

She wants very comprehensive videos if she cannot view in person (fair enough). Happy to buy sight unseen but video must be clear. Budget – would look up to $20k if it was perfect! Doesn’t like Appy eyes (worried about blindness). Ideally just pleasure riding, may expand to ARC if she finds a proper no fuss unicorn. – She’s in metro and would like to ride (Can only go 15km from home). But has friends in regional or would be happy if we could view too. So VIC only. But happy for sight unseen if friend could possibly ride. Lovely lady but has had quite the spook so proper unicorns only, realistically a beginner who is scared to canter.

Riding History:
We have owned our own stock horse gelding that my daughter rode for over 10 years and he has now semi-retired. In that time I had the some lessons on him, but not consistently. He is not a beginners horse and is very sensitive to aids with a very soft mouth, so I am not a complete beginner in the sense that I know how to be a quiet and gentle rider without hanging on the mouth or flapping my legs about, but I have not done much out of the walk so am definitely still a beginner. In the lessons we worked mainly in the walk to establish good seat and leg aids, good riding position, gentle hands/aids, and how to get the horse listening and working calmly. I do not have a lot of riding experience outside of these lessons. I have been handling him and caring for him the whole time we have owned him, so am at an intermediate level for handling and experienced in caring. He is generally a quiet and easy horse to be around (hence intermediate rather than experienced), although can get pushy when food is involved, and also can get nervy when not in work. Dream Horse: I am looking for a unicorn and would love a horse that will take care of me in the saddle and enjoys interacting with people. This horse will be a member of the family and we will be a forever home for the right fit. It must have trail experience, both alone and in company, as I plan on doing a lot of trails. The alone part is very important, as I will often be trail riding alone, and need a horse who is comfortable doing that. As I am a beginner, more woah-than-go would be preferred, and must not be known to bolt on trails (even if the other horses take off), or be spooky. I will also be having flat lessons to improve my riding, so the horse must have a good basic education. While the more education the better, I have no plans on climbing the dressage levels so it’s not necessary to have high level dressage education or anything like that. As long as the horse is more educated than me, I will be happy. One more thing that is very important for me, is that the horse will not be in work 5 days a week. I need a horse who will be okay without consistent work, and who’s temperament doesn’t change if they haven’t been ridden in a week. I need to be able to hope on for a plod down the road, or a little work in the arena without the horse being too hot. Ideally, we would be paddocking the new horse without our gelding. So a horse that is sensible when paddocked together would be great, but we do have room to paddock separately if we had to, so not a deal breaker. No OTT or green horses as I don’t have the experience. Must be good to catch/shoe/float/teeth, and no bite, buck, kick or bolt. Must be sound. I would prefer no windsuckers. Must be good around farm machinery/dogs/traffic. I have put 14.2hh-15.2hh, if closer to 14hh would prefer a stockier breed as I am tall (5 7 but light). I would prefer a gelding, but am definitely open to a mare if she ticks all the boxes. As for breed, I am not set on anything in particular, but would love something with the temperament of a QH or clydie. I would prefer no TBs, arabs or breed that are known to be a bit hotter/require more consistent work. Little managable quirks and personality is welcome, as long as the horse is safe. Safety is my biggest priority. Overall, I need a horse that has been there, done that. Already had the miles put in and exposure. I don’t want a dressage superstar, or anything flashy, just a good honest horse who is happy to have a beginner learn on it. Riding Ambitions: I am a mature woman rider who is a beginner so my ambitions are quite low. I want to do a lot of trail riding, as there are some great places from my front door, and I want to have flat lessons. I will be having lessons to improve my riding abilities, so the horse must have a solid basic education as I do not have the experience to further this myself. I want a pleasure riding horse, where I can enjoy the trails and improve my own abilities, while also having a great companion. I have no plans to compete, to jump, or to show. On average, I will probably be riding 1-2 times a week. We have recently purchased our own property, and the horse we end up finding will be very loved and cared for. I am located in Kyneton/regional VIC, and am willing to travel anywhere in VIC, COVID restrictions allowing, to view a horse. I am not comfortable buying sight unseen. beginner; trail riding 5/1 – sue getting wilson from mitchell park vetted. 24/12 – sent sue to horses yesterday but both are unsuitable. Sent sue a chrsitams message 21/10 called sue and left a voice mail and a text message.

My 10yo son is a confident beginner/novice coming off a small pony (11.3hh). He has been riding for about 4 years, attended Seville Pony Club for 3.5 years (Grade 5), taken part in low level Dressage and CT comps (in the ribbons) and has attended Brenda Mitton Eventing Clinics. Has a growing interest in jumping and also enjoys trail riding. Has had limited experience riding larger mounts, so will be supported by private instruction to help him make the transition. Dream Horse: Looking for a partner in crime – 13.3hh (stocky) – 14.3 hh mare or gelding, 8 – 16 years old. Allrounder type with a bit of exposure/experience to support a junior rider. Confidence builder (probably more whoa than go). Don’t mind a little aged as long as sound and free moving. No vices, no wind suckers, no laminitic ponies (very grass-rich region). Should enjoy jumping (Grade 5/4). Should be happy to receive love and attention from kids. Would love a Welsh-type, but not fussy. Prefer 12k budget unless tack included – can stretch a bit for special candidate. Riding Ambitions: Mount to be suitable for PC, low level comps including XC, the odd show and trails.

Disciplines: Dressage, Pony Club, Showjumping Breed: NO PREFERENCE Height: 13.2 to 14.2 Age: 8 YO to 16 YO Asking Price: 3000 to 10000 Sex: Gelding, Mare Rider Level: Novice Location: Tasmania |
Riding History:
We are looking for a new pony for our 12 year old granddaughter. She has been riding since she was 7 and currently has a lovely 12hh mare who she is sadly out-growing. She has weekly lessons with a very good instructor and regularly attends Pony Club rallys. She is a competent but not hugely courageous rider. She currently jumps 50cms in competitions and is training at 60cms. She has done numerous Pony Club shield competitions, some dressage competitions where she did the Prelim 1A test (she won a second place in this a few weeks ago at a local comp) and a few ODEs although she finds the cross country rather scary still! Dream Horse: We are looking for a pony 13.3 – 14.2hh . We want a pony that has had plenty of experience with pony club and shows and that is safe, reliable and kind. It needs to be able to jump and also do some simple dressage. Also, to safely go for outrides to the beach and in the bush. We would prefer a gelding but are happy to consider a mare if it is the right pony. We would also prefer something no younger than 8 years old and preferably not much older than 16 years as it will eventually get passed down to our younger granddaughter. Riding Ambitions: Our granddaughter wants to continue to improve her riding and start jumping a bit higher. She is also quite interested in dressage and would be happy if her new horse could take her a bit further with this too. Most of all she wants to continue to have fun with her pony at pony club rallys and local competitions and be able to safely ride on the beach or in the bush. Pony Club 24/12 29/10 – spoke to Alison> keen for more footage on Geelong chestnut one. We will go view. Quoted her $100 to view as close to home, explained any more would be travel costs included.

Riding History:
Evita is 14, turning 15 on Christmas Day, she is 170cm and weighs around 56kg. She has been riding since she was 6 years old, however a simple whole body shake off her first pony resulted in a broken arm and loss of confidence. She has been on her current 12hh welsh A for the past 7 years and is very confident on her. Evita has also ridden our old TB mare at home in the arena and out on trails around the farm although we had to put her to sleep a few months ago. These are the only two horses Evita has really ridden and she does get nervous on unknown horses. Evita has completed at Ag shows, dressage, showjumping and HT on her current pony (all grade 5). She occasionally gets nervous out on cross country and may pull up to have a walk mid cross country course which usually results in her being eliminated. Her pony can put in the occasional pig-root and spin when a tractor passes, both of which she is happy to handle as she knows the pony, but usually she does not like to ride anything unknown who would do the same. Dream Horse: We would like a sound, fun, easy and straight forward been there done that type with plenty of PC and competition experience and no dirt. Needs to be good to hop back onto after a few weeks off and easy for a young and sometimes nervous teenager to do everything with. 14.2hh – 16.2hh, 6 – 16 years old. Any colour / breed. Pony Club experience to Grade 3 preferred. Prefer Victorian location or Vic / NSW boarder location as we do not wish to buy sight unseen. Riding Ambitions: Evita would like to have a bit of a go at everything pony club offers. She would like to move up the grades with horse trials, showjumping and dressage as she develops confidence. She will have lessons, attend clinics and do some trail riding. Notes: 1/11 spoke to bridget. Located in Swan Hill. True second pony 14.2h-15.2 with experience at grade 3 level. Daughter not a fan of having to kick along. Must try before they buy so vic only. 30/10 – Messaged Bridget to let her know I will be in touch soon to discuss her application further.

Riding History:
First introduced to horses in my late teens following high school graduation. Did some very basic trail riding and riding around the farm. First time owning and purchasing a horse in April this year – bought a re-trained STB after working with them in my veterinary training at university and falling in love with the breed – got to know each other and increased our workload to look at competing at low level endurance events (20km / 40km) after being introduced to the sport by a work colleague. Was riding alone on the roads and doing regular 10km training sessions alone to build up fitness. Unfortunately he has damaged collateral ligaments in one of his front feet and is on rest for the next 6-12 months with a guarded prognosis back to riding. Now getting regular lessons from the coach at my agistment to learn how to sit and ride properly and build a well formed foundation for riding on an awesome warmblood mare who is a dream to ride. Dream Horse: Quiet and easy going with; cars (even ones who zoom past), dogs, tractors, sheep etc – over 15.2 hands as I am tall (around 170cm) Happy to be alone or in company on trail rides (ie no separation anxiety) Suited for endurance, but also happy to dabble in adult riding club events and other things (ie arena work, round yard work, small jumps just for fun while riding etc). But also with suitability/potential to increase in workload if desired (ie 80km endurance rides). A horse with a great conformation (straight legs, no previous tendon injuries) that will tolerate a workload well as well as enjoy the endurance side of things (ie not too lazy) Riding Ambitions: – Endurance riding (20km initially) with hopes to increase to 40km and 80km Endurance focus 1/2 horse in nsw passed the vet to an acceptable level and pippa has transferred the money 25/1 booked a vetting for the horse in NSW that pippa tried. Vetting is booked for 31st jan 9/1 followed up on one for pippa, sounds really promising, She is going to view it on thursday and take for a ride. 6/1 spoke to pippa on the phone, small animal vet, keeps her horses on agistment. Sending me videos of her riding tomorrow. She sent me a horse I have followed up on, going to send the owner the video as owner seems pretty switched on and go from there. 24/12 finally heard back from pippa who has been to busy to call back. have sent her happy xmas message and will email her the ebook now.

Riding History:
Rode (competitively at PC and HOTY/ official dressage) from age 8 to 18, and from 13 – 18 worked at a riding school, taking trail rides and eventually teaching lessons (flat and jumping). After a few years break I started riding again at 30 (6 years ago). My last three horses have been young/straight from the breakers. Dream Horse: Seeking a reliable horse to compete in dressage and showing, hopefully something I can also take to the occasional adult riding club rally or beach ride. While I am competent to handle young horses and acrobatics under saddle, my preference would be not to have to as my confidence has taken a hit! Horse still needs to be in front of the leg and suited for state HOTY level showing and should at a minimum be training novice dressage. Non spooky (within reason!) Riding Ambitions: Over the next 3-5 years I would like to continue showing, and progress a horse to Elementary dressage as well as re-gain some of the joy in trail riding/riding outside an arena! Notes: 28/2 – sent heather a message. 14/2 – sent heather this – still no replies https://www.horsedeals.com.au/listings/beautiful-wb-gelding-4b474d23-091a-411c-8ffa-451d5637a590 3/2 – sent heather Jess Tanish’s WB x TB. $25k she might take $22k

Growing up on a big property we did however do everything, including jumping bareback, mounted games etc! I’m now 32yo and getting back in the saddle after 15 years off. I’ve been having weekly lessons since November 2021, on a 16.2hh WB dressage schoolmaster who can be a bit lazy/ behind the leg but I can push him along into an active trot. I can steer, trot and canter in small circles in the arena, plus ride out on (mostly flat) trails. I’ve also ridden a variety of different horses over the past month, including a few quiet OTTB and bigger ponies. I’m 157cm and 49 kg so hopefully that helps with options! Dream Horse: Kind, quiet and fuss-free! Easy to handle on the ground, c/s/f is a must. Must be happy to be ridden once a week, occasionally up to three times, but very even-tempered so doesn’t require consistent work. Ideally, established paces on the flat and happy to be ridden mainly in the arena, also out on the trail with friends or solo. Riding Ambitions: Well 32yo me is very different to 12yo me! Right now, I’m looking for a pleasure horse that is happy to be ridden mostly in the arena on the flat and out on the trails occasionally, with other hoses or solo. I wish to continue my own lessons so a horse/ bigger pony that is happy to be ridden in the arena, trotting and cantering (a lot!) in circles. My riding school has a dressage focus, so something very low-level here too would be nice but I have no desire to compete! Just to ride out calmly and enjoy having a horse again! Pleasure; Schoolmaster 3/2 alice found a horse which has been vetted but not through MMR 1/2 vet checking a horse she has found herself through her instructor. 18/1 sent alice a stock horse in melton, she is booked to go and see on friday. Alice headed off to ride griffin at cargill tyson and loved it but they sold it to someone else who didnt want it vet checked. 9/1 spoke to alice on the phone. Straight forward level 3/4 dressage horse that trail rides. 6/1 sent a welcome email with ebook. will call tomorrow.

Riding History:
I was a horse owner and experienced all rounder rider as a teenager. I am now 50yo and have just started doing trail rides and some basic lessons to get my confidence up – with a 30 year absence from riding. Dream Horse: I am 6ft and 95kg, professional busy mum. I am after a gentle giant, that would be called bomb proof. Does not spook, a horse that has been there and done that and well trained, and a horse looking to be well loved and to become part of my family. A horse my 10 yo daughter would feel confident around and could jump on at times (she is having lessons at present and I will get her a horse in next 6-12 months). Ideally a Clydesdale cross that is bigger than 16H, and has no health issues. The horse has to have no problems with farriers, dentists, floating, being retrieved from paddocks etc. Riding Ambitions: I am seeking a pleasure and trail riding horse. I will continue doing riding lessons on this horse for a while. I found an excellent full-care agistment place that I plan to keep the horse at (where my 10yo does her riding lessons). Notes: Had to refund $350 as she found her own quickly.

I have been riding off and on since I was 10. I had my own pony/horse until I was 18 and then went to college, got married, had children etc. I started riding again in my early 30s and since then have always had my own horse. In the last 10 or so years I have been having regular dressage lessons with a qualified instructor. Dream Horse: I am looking for a horse to do some low level dressage on – up to elementary is ideal – as well as trail riding. The breed is not as important as temperament – I want a willing, calm and experienced horse who is not over-reactive to different situations. A horse that has had lots of exposure to different situations is ideal. Riding Ambitions: I would like to compete for fun in some low level local dressage competitions as well as to trail ride in the bush and on the beach with my husband. Mostly my ambition is to keep riding safely for as long as possible (I am 69 this year) and to continue with my regular dressage/flat lessons. Dressage 21/3 – been sent multiple options. Chasing footage of the queenstown horse for her. 28/2 found alison a horse in yass, nsw which may suit pending the outcome of another viewing today. 21/2 spoken with alison, asked her to set up a watts ap, it was just via text last time. 15-16hh elementary level dressage.

Riding History:
I am in my late 40s & from the UK and grew up riding. My mum ran a riding school so I had my own ponies, two older smaller ponies and then I had a 13.2hh 6yr gelding Sparky and we grew up together, pony club, hunting, and show jumping at shows and winning lots of rosettes. All my ponies were honest, a bit naughty from time to time but genuine. I had a particular bond with Sparky – we trusted each other and he rarely put a foot wrong. He was especially precious as my parents were divorced, he was my therapy. I then had a mare who was lovely. In the end we sold her when I hit my late teens and didn’t have the time to commit due to exams. It was heart wrenching. I then went to University etc. I’ve since ridden every opportunity I’ve had – friend’s horses, riding holidays. When we first arrived in Australia I leased a 19yr schoolmaster eventer who was awesome. I did dressage lessons and trail rode him. I leased him fir about 6mths until I got pregnant. In the last two years I have been having pole clinics with an instructor on school horses. I started riding a young warmblood who I fell in love with and was going to buy him but he turned out be really green on our first trail ride (very looky with rearing) and we had a nasty accident. This was late November 2021. Long story short – Wrong horse, wrong time, wrong place. Also I do think the instructor / seller mismatched was more interested in selling him rather than working out if he was the best fit for me. Regardless of that I consider myself a competent, confident rider but probably a bit green from missing so many years of adult riding. Dream Horse: Just the usual unicorn!! I’m 165cm & around 62kg so around 15.2hh, 10yrs+, experienced, honest, genuine. Enjoys fun solo trail rides and competent jumper. Nicely put together, absolutely no rear, buck, bite or bolt. Easy to handle and no vices. Forward going, not a plodder but not a loose cannon either. If I had to choose I’d say more whoa than go but I don’t want to have to push it forward constantly. Riding Ambitions: In the first instance, trail riding, trips to beach, clinics with an instructor, then maybe look at show jumping/eventing or hunting. No set ambitions really other than to really enjoy trail riding. I really dislike dressage and only school by necessity. Notes: 11/5 sally asked to pause the search 5/4 touched base with sally to see if she wanted us to follow up on any for her. Sent her a show horse type to see if the show horse bling fitted her criteria. 21/ 3 – sent sally a few options. curently her sun has covid. sally is exploring sight unseen so we can send her options outside of south australia. 3/3 sent sally a welcome email with complimentary ebook.

Riding History:
We are looking for a family horse and best friend I am in my mid 40s and rode for many years – as a child to late teens, I rode competively in the ring/dressage. I am getting back into riding and having lessons to get me ride fit. I am a confident rider. My 8 year old daughter is a beginner and currently in lessons, she is being taught properly in a round yard, no reigns, then no saddle for her balance etc she can now rise and sit trot off the lunge comfortably, stop, start and turn. She will be proceeding to canter after the holidays. Dream Horse: See below – A mare that we could later breed would be a bonus, so good bloodlines. Although gelding also fine. Riding Ambitions: Looking for a patient “been there and done that” pony my daughter is quite tall and is growing like grass so that is why we are looking for pony around 15hh ( a touch smaller could be ok) Clearly needs to be safe/sound and something that she may use for interschools when she begins high school – she has showed some interest in dressage. Please note this will not be a competitive home per say, we are simply looking for a horse that has plenty of experience/education as I enjoy an educated ride, due to my show days and a pony can help my daughter continue to gain confidence and skill – maybe ex show/dressage that maybe ready for an easier life, with weekly rides in the arena/trail, tonnes of love & attention. Notes: oct 29- sending Sasha horses every day pretty much! Oct 8- Vet checking one next week. Tuesday onwards in QLD

But have been looking for quite some time so as long as ready to go, friendly and good manners I am flexible.

Riding History:
I started riding at age 9, got my own horse at age 12. I was very competitive at Pony Club in everything (games to showing to grade 3 eventing). At 18, I got an OTT and evented level 2. then stopped riding. I returned to riding in my early 30s and had an OTT and a 16.3hh WB who I evented HRCV grade 3 on. I sold him 7 years ago. This year, I have started riding again under instruction on my friend’s WB doing mainly dressage. This has stopped in lockdown though as I live in Melbourne. Dream Horse: 15.2-16hh – nice movement and a love of jumping. Must be good out on trails and rarely refuse jumps. Bonus points for brown or black horses and ones that are a bit smoochy! The dream is the horse has had some exposure or success at events but I am beginning to give up hope of that. Riding Ambitions: I am looking to do a bit of everything. I will be under instruction and will be able to get a trainer to help if the horse is a little green. My ambition is to do ARC, trail riding, low level eventing and straight dressage. I am not a nervous rider but I don’t want a horse that bucks or bolts. The odd pigroot is ok. Bad ground manners ok. Horse must load on the float well. Notes: 9/10 lucys horse passed vet and is being transported to victoria on tuesday 12th. Nikki to call/message and discuss a potential partial refund

We are thrilled to be able to assist you. We will start the hunt immediately and you will be started to send options that may suit! With your budget obviously being a touch lower, I think more the older style with plenty of experience and calm nature but slightly winding down may suit? Hopefully similar to what you were thinking. Please shoot through or feel free to call anytime – we will text / email options as we discover them. You will hear from either myself, Nikki or my co-worker an Match maker extraordinaire Heleni (H) will be in contact soon, Many thanks,

Ideally just pleasure riding, may expand to ARC if she finds a proper no fuss unicorn. – She’s in metro and would like to ride (Can only go 15km from home). But has friends in regional or would be happy if we could view too. So VIC only. But happy for sight unseen if friend could possibly ride. Lovely lady but has had quite the spook so proper unicorns only, realistically a beginner who is scared to canter.

Disciplines: Adult Riding Club, Allrounders, Beginners, Pleasure, Trail Riding Breed: NO PREFERENCE, Clydesdale, Cross Breed, Other Breeds Height: 14.2 to 15.2 Age: 9 YO to 15 YO Asking Price: 1000 to 10000 Sex: Gelding, Mare Rider Level: Beginner Location: Victoria |
Riding History:
We have owned our own stock horse gelding that my daughter rode for over 10 years and he has now semi-retired. In that time I had the some lessons on him, but not consistently. He is not a beginners horse and is very sensitive to aids with a very soft mouth, so I am not a complete beginner in the sense that I know how to be a quiet and gentle rider without hanging on the mouth or flapping my legs about, but I have not done much out of the walk so am definitely still a beginner. In the lessons we worked mainly in the walk to establish good seat and leg aids, good riding position, gentle hands/aids, and how to get the horse listening and working calmly. I do not have a lot of riding experience outside of these lessons. I have been handling him and caring for him the whole time we have owned him, so am at an intermediate level for handling and experienced in caring. He is generally a quiet and easy horse to be around (hence intermediate rather than experienced), although can get pushy when food is involved, and also can get nervy when not in work. Dream Horse: I am looking for a unicorn and would love a horse that will take care of me in the saddle and enjoys interacting with people. This horse will be a member of the family and we will be a forever home for the right fit. It must have trail experience, both alone and in company, as I plan on doing a lot of trails. The alone part is very important, as I will often be trail riding alone, and need a horse who is comfortable doing that. As I am a beginner, more woah-than-go would be preferred, and must not be known to bolt on trails (even if the other horses take off), or be spooky. I will also be having flat lessons to improve my riding, so the horse must have a good basic education. While the more education the better, I have no plans on climbing the dressage levels so it’s not necessary to have high level dressage education or anything like that. As long as the horse is more educated than me, I will be happy. One more thing that is very important for me, is that the horse will not be in work 5 days a week. I need a horse who will be okay without consistent work, and who’s temperament doesn’t change if they haven’t been ridden in a week. I need to be able to hope on for a plod down the road, or a little work in the arena without the horse being too hot. Ideally, we would be paddocking the new horse without our gelding. So a horse that is sensible when paddocked together would be great, but we do have room to paddock separately if we had to, so not a deal breaker. No OTT or green horses as I don’t have the experience. Must be good to catch/shoe/float/teeth, and no bite, buck, kick or bolt. Must be sound. I would prefer no windsuckers. Must be good around farm machinery/dogs/traffic. I have put 14.2hh-15.2hh, if closer to 14hh would prefer a stockier breed as I am tall (5 7 but light). I would prefer a gelding, but am definitely open to a mare if she ticks all the boxes. As for breed, I am not set on anything in particular, but would love something with the temperament of a QH or clydie. I would prefer no TBs, arabs or breed that are known to be a bit hotter/require more consistent work. Little managable quirks and personality is welcome, as long as the horse is safe. Safety is my biggest priority. Overall, I need a horse that has been there, done that. Already had the miles put in and exposure. I don’t want a dressage superstar, or anything flashy, just a good honest horse who is happy to have a beginner learn on it. Riding Ambitions: I am a mature woman rider who is a beginner so my ambitions are quite low. I want to do a lot of trail riding, as there are some great places from my front door, and I want to have flat lessons. I will be having lessons to improve my riding abilities, so the horse must have a solid basic education as I do not have the experience to further this myself. I want a pleasure riding horse, where I can enjoy the trails and improve my own abilities, while also having a great companion. I have no plans to compete, to jump, or to show. On average, I will probably be riding 1-2 times a week. We have recently purchased our own property, and the horse we end up finding will be very loved and cared for. I am located in Kyneton/regional VIC, and am willing to travel anywhere in VIC, COVID restrictions allowing, to view a horse. I am not comfortable buying sight unseen. beginner; trail riding 5/1 – sue getting wilson from mitchell park vetted. 24/12 – sent sue to horses yesterday but both are unsuitable. Sent sue a chrsitams message 21/10 called sue and left a voice mail and a text message.

My 10yo son is a confident beginner/novice coming off a small pony (11.3hh).

Riding History:
We are looking for a new pony for our 12 year old granddaughter. She has been riding since she was 7 and currently has a lovely 12hh mare who she is sadly out-growing. She has weekly lessons with a very good instructor and regularly attends Pony Club rallys. She is a competent but not hugely courageous rider. She currently jumps 50cms in competitions and is training at 60cms. She has done numerous Pony Club shield competitions, some dressage competitions where she did the Prelim 1A test (she won a second place in this a few weeks ago at a local comp) and a few ODEs although she finds the cross country rather scary still! Dream Horse: We are looking for a pony 13.3 – 14.2hh . We want a pony that has had plenty of experience with pony club and shows and that is safe, reliable and kind. It needs to be able to jump and also do some simple dressage. Also, to safely go for outrides to the beach and in the bush. We would prefer a gelding but are happy to consider a mare if it is the right pony. We would also prefer something no younger than 8 years old and preferably not much older than 16 years as it will eventually get passed down to our younger granddaughter. Riding Ambitions: Our granddaughter wants to continue to improve her riding and start jumping a bit higher. She is also quite interested in dressage and would be happy if her new horse could take her a bit further with this too. Most of all she wants to continue to have fun with her pony at pony club rallys and local competitions and be able to safely ride on the beach or in the bush. Pony Club 24/12 29/10 – spoke to Alison> keen for more footage on Geelong chestnut one. We will go view. Quoted her $100 to view as close to home, explained any more would be travel costs included.

Riding History:
Evita is 14, turning 15 on Christmas Day, she is 170cm and weighs around 56kg. She has been riding since she was 6 years old, however a simple whole body shake off her first pony resulted in a broken arm and loss of confidence. She has been on her current 12hh welsh A for the past 7 years and is very confident on her. Evita has also ridden our old TB mare at home in the arena and out on trails around the farm although we had to put her to sleep a few months ago. These are the only two horses Evita has really ridden and she does get nervous on unknown horses. Evita has completed at Ag shows, dressage, showjumping and HT on her current pony (all grade 5). She occasionally gets nervous out on cross country and may pull up to have a walk mid cross country course which usually results in her being eliminated. Her pony can put in the occasional pig-root and spin when a tractor passes, both of which she is happy to handle as she knows the pony, but usually she does not like to ride anything unknown who would do the same. Dream Horse: We would like a sound, fun, easy and straight forward been there done that type with plenty of PC and competition experience and no dirt. Needs to be good to hop back onto after a few weeks off and easy for a young and sometimes nervous teenager to do everything with. 14.2hh – 16.2hh, 6 – 16 years old. Any colour / breed. Pony Club experience to Grade 3 preferred. Prefer Victorian location or Vic / NSW boarder location as we do not wish to buy sight unseen. Riding Ambitions: Evita would like to have a bit of a go at everything pony club offers. She would like to move up the grades with horse trials, showjumping and dressage as she develops confidence. She will have lessons, attend clinics and do some trail riding. Notes: 1/11 spoke to bridget. Located in Swan Hill. True second pony 14.2h-15.2 with experience at grade 3 level. Daughter not a fan of having to kick along. Must try before they buy so vic only. 30/10 – Messaged Bridget to let her know I will be in touch soon to discuss her application further.

Riding History:
First introduced to horses in my late teens following high school graduation. Did some very basic trail riding and riding around the farm. First time owning and purchasing a horse in April this year – bought a re-trained STB after working with them in my veterinary training at university and falling in love with the breed – got to know each other and increased our workload to look at competing at low level endurance events (20km / 40km) after being introduced to the sport by a work colleague. Was riding alone on the roads and doing regular 10km training sessions alone to build up fitness. Unfortunately he has damaged collateral ligaments in one of his front feet and is on rest for the next 6-12 months with a guarded prognosis back to riding. Now getting regular lessons from the coach at my agistment to learn how to sit and ride properly and build a well formed foundation for riding on an awesome warmblood mare who is a dream to ride. Dream Horse: Quiet and easy going with; cars (even ones who zoom past), dogs, tractors, sheep etc – over 15.2 hands as I am tall (around 170cm) Happy to be alone or in company on trail rides (ie no separation anxiety) Suited for endurance, but also happy to dabble in adult riding club events and other things (ie arena work, round yard work, small jumps just for fun while riding etc).

Disciplines: Adult Riding Club, Allrounders, Dressage, Schoolmasters, Show Breed: NO PREFERENCE Height: 15 to 16.2 Age: 5 YO to 16 YO Asking Price: 15000 to Sex: Rider Level: Intermediate Location: Tasmania |
Riding History:
Rode (competitively at PC and HOTY/ official dressage) from age 8 to 18, and from 13 – 18 worked at a riding school, taking trail rides and eventually teaching lessons (flat and jumping). After a few years break I started riding again at 30 (6 years ago). My last three horses have been young/straight from the breakers. Dream Horse: Seeking a reliable horse to compete in dressage and showing, hopefully something I can also take to the occasional adult riding club rally or beach ride. While I am competent to handle young horses and acrobatics under saddle, my preference would be not to have to as my confidence has taken a hit! Horse still needs to be in front of the leg and suited for state HOTY level showing and should at a minimum be training novice dressage. Non spooky (within reason!) Riding Ambitions: Over the next 3-5 years I would like to continue showing, and progress a horse to Elementary dressage as well as re-gain some of the joy in trail riding/riding outside an arena! Notes: 28/2 – sent heather a message. 14/2 – sent heather this – still no replies https://www.horsedeals.com.au/listings/beautiful-wb-gelding-4b474d23-091a-411c-8ffa-451d5637a590 3/2 – sent heather Jess Tanish’s WB x TB. $25k she might take $22k

Riding History:
I grew up with horses, learning to ride at age 5 and competing my ponies mainly on the flat in the show ring, a little jumping and pony club. Growing up on a big property we did however do everything, including jumping bareback, mounted games etc! I’m now 32yo and getting back in the saddle after 15 years off. I’ve been having weekly lessons since November 2021, on a 16.2hh WB dressage schoolmaster who can be a bit lazy/ behind the leg but I can push him along into an active trot. I can steer, trot and canter in small circles in the arena, plus ride out on (mostly flat) trails. I’ve also ridden a variety of different horses over the past month, including a few quiet OTTB and bigger ponies. I’m 157cm and 49 kg so hopefully that helps with options! Dream Horse: Kind, quiet and fuss-free! Easy to handle on the ground, c/s/f is a must. Must be happy to be ridden once a week, occasionally up to three times, but very even-tempered so doesn’t require consistent work. Ideally, established paces on the flat and happy to be ridden mainly in the arena, also out on the trail with friends or solo. Riding Ambitions: Well 32yo me is very different to 12yo me! Right now, I’m looking for a pleasure horse that is happy to be ridden mostly in the arena on the flat and out on the trails occasionally, with other hoses or solo. I wish to continue my own lessons so a horse/ bigger pony that is happy to be ridden in the arena, trotting and cantering (a lot!) in circles. My riding school has a dressage focus, so something very low-level here too would be nice but I have no desire to compete! Just to ride out calmly and enjoy having a horse again! Pleasure; Schoolmaster 3/2 alice found a horse which has been vetted but not through MMR 1/2 vet checking a horse she has found herself through her instructor. 18/1 sent alice a stock horse in melton, she is booked to go and see on friday. Alice headed off to ride griffin at cargill tyson and loved it but they sold it to someone else who didnt want it vet checked. 9/1 spoke to alice on the phone. Straight forward level 3/4 dressage horse that trail rides. 6/1 sent a welcome email with ebook. will call tomorrow.

Riding History:
I was a horse owner and experienced all rounder rider as a teenager. I am now 50yo and have just started doing trail rides and some basic lessons to get my confidence up – with a 30 year absence from riding. Dream Horse: I am 6ft and 95kg, professional busy mum. I am after a gentle giant, that would be called bomb proof. Does not spook, a horse that has been there and done that and well trained, and a horse looking to be well loved and to become part of my family. A horse my 10 yo daughter would feel confident around and could jump on at times (she is having lessons at present and I will get her a horse in next 6-12 months). Ideally a Clydesdale cross that is bigger than 16H, and has no health issues. The horse has to have no problems with farriers, dentists, floating, being retrieved from paddocks etc. Riding Ambitions: I am seeking a pleasure and trail riding horse. I will continue doing riding lessons on this horse for a while. I found an excellent full-care agistment place that I plan to keep the horse at (where my 10yo does her riding lessons). Notes: Had to refund $350 as she found her own quickly.

Riding History:
I have been riding off and on since I was 10. I had my own pony/horse until I was 18 and then went to college, got married, had children etc. I started riding again in my early 30s and since then have always had my own horse. In the last 10 or so years I have been having regular dressage lessons with a qualified instructor. Dream Horse: I am looking for a horse to do some low level dressage on – up to elementary is ideal – as well as trail riding. The breed is not as important as temperament – I want a willing, calm and experienced horse who is not over-reactive to different situations. A horse that has had lots of exposure to different situations is ideal. Riding Ambitions: I would like to compete for fun in some low level local dressage competitions as well as to trail ride in the bush and on the beach with my husband. Mostly my ambition is to keep riding safely for as long as possible (I am 69 this year) and to continue with my regular dressage/flat lessons. Dressage 21/3 – been sent multiple options. Chasing footage of the queenstown horse for her. 28/2 found alison a horse in yass, nsw which may suit pending the outcome of another viewing today. 21/2 spoken with alison, asked her to set up a watts ap, it was just via text last time. 15-16hh elementary level dressage.

Disciplines: Allrounders, Pleasure, Schoolmasters, Showjumping, Trail Riding Breed: NO PREFERENCE Height: 14.2 to 16 Age: 9 YO to 16 YO Asking Price: 15000 to 1000 Sex: Gelding, Mare Rider Level: Novice, Intermediate Location: South Australia |
Riding History:
I am in my late 40s & from the UK and grew up riding. My mum ran a riding school so I had my own ponies, two older smaller ponies and then I had a 13.2hh 6yr gelding Sparky and we grew up together, pony club, hunting, and show jumping at shows and winning lots of rosettes. All my ponies were honest, a bit naughty from time to time but genuine. I had a particular bond with Sparky – we trusted each other and he rarely put a foot wrong. He was especially precious as my parents were divorced, he was my therapy. I then had a mare who was lovely. In the end we sold her when I hit my late teens and didn’t have the time to commit due to exams. It was heart wrenching. I then went to University etc. I’ve since ridden every opportunity I’ve had – friend’s horses, riding holidays. When we first arrived in Australia I leased a 19yr schoolmaster eventer who was awesome. I did dressage lessons and trail rode him. I leased him fir about 6mths until I got pregnant. In the last two years I have been having pole clinics with an instructor on school horses. I started riding a young warmblood who I fell in love with and was going to buy him but he turned out be really green on our first trail ride (very looky with rearing) and we had a nasty accident. This was late November 2021. Long story short – Wrong horse, wrong time, wrong place. Also I do think the instructor / seller mismatched was more interested in selling him rather than working out if he was the best fit for me. Regardless of that I consider myself a competent, confident rider but probably a bit green from missing so many years of adult riding. Dream Horse: Just the usual unicorn!! I’m 165cm & around 62kg so around 15.2hh, 10yrs+, experienced, honest, genuine. Enjoys fun solo trail rides and competent jumper. Nicely put together, absolutely no rear, buck, bite or bolt. Easy to handle and no vices. Forward going, not a plodder but not a loose cannon either. If I had to choose I’d say more whoa than go but I don’t want to have to push it forward constantly. Riding Ambitions: In the first instance, trail riding, trips to beach, clinics with an instructor, then maybe look at show jumping/eventing or hunting. No set ambitions really other than to really enjoy trail riding. I really dislike dressage and only school by necessity. Notes: 11/5 sally asked to pause the search 5/4 touched base with sally to see if she wanted us to follow up on any for her. Sent her a show horse type to see if the show horse bling fitted her criteria. 21/ 3 – sent sally a few options. curently her sun has covid. sally is exploring sight unseen so we can send her options outside of south australia. 3/3 sent sally a welcome email with complimentary ebook.
