I have two New Forest mares, who I used to ride out with my friend in the New Forest. Unfortunately, she is no longer able to do this so I m hoping to find someone who is may be retired (I m in my 60 s).

I m looking for someone to ride my finer built Forester, so you d probably be no taller than 5 6 and not over 10 stone.

No children or under 18 s

You do need to be able to ride and be confident.

Winnie is a sweet mare, who was broken during lock down and hacked out at least twice a week and also had lessons and schooling through the summer months. She s ridden in a snaffle bridle and isn t strong.
She is usually always ridden out with the other mare.

I ride the other mare, who is not so good in traffic, so is led the 500yards to the Forest, where my friend helped me on.

Both ponies have been successful in the show ring and I m open to doing some dressage or anything that would be a bit of fun for them.

We are based near Lyndhurst, at a friends house. They are the only two ponies there.

I m not necessarily looking for any payment, just possibly some help with them.

I m very flexible with whatever level of involvement anyone would want to commit to, as getting the girls out riding again is my priority.
