Fun 13hh grey cob for loan.
9yrs old.
Flo has done a lot in her 9 years and we have decided / been shown by her, that her best skills are hacking and lead rein. Due to having been in a riding school (when she was 6 before we got her), she can get school sour if not on the lead rein, and will drop a shoulder, or do a buck to try and unbalance her rider and to get out of working. This is why we say she is not suitable off lead rein in a school unless an adult or a gutsy kid who can take the rough with the smooth is riding. She is well schooled (we have paid for adult instructors to continue to school her and of course they can handle her antics or sit her tricks nb she has a weight limit up to 10 stone). She loves jumping, but off lead rein can be unpredictable in her antics so want to make this very clear. She’s taught my daughter a lot, and we all adore her. She always has a home with us, but we can’t bear for her to be wasted in a field.
Hacking she is a saint, and I have put many novices on her. She is not 100% perfect as no horse is, and has had a excited little kick out in canter on the forest but it was sat by my then 9 year old no bother, it was excitement not malice. She has spent the spring and summer at a hacking centre in the forest.
A bit more about flo, she has done lots of pony club, but flatwork isn’t her preferred thing but SJ and XC she loves!! She is pretty keen on PPC too.
Snaffle mouthed, will load on a trailer or lorry. Excellent manners on the ground and was used in a riding school with children doing all groundwork. We have also taken her to a nursery and had children paint her and paint their hands and then cover her.
Good to clip (child can do, but she needs sedating for her feathers to be cut). Great for farrier, has bare feet. No health issues or history of laminitis, good diet.
Lives in or out and can be in a mixed herd as she is excellent at mixing with others, hacks alone and in company, goes first or last.
Up to date with all vaccinations and teeth.
Please contact for more info.
Happy for her to stay at our yard or move yards, but within Hampshire, Wiltshire or Dorset or 60 mins of Salisbury.
Flo is a very much loved, fun, but quirky pony.
