Sass is a super fun pony who happily turns her hooves to most things! From bareback jumping round the forest to cruising down the beach, schooling on the flat, to tackless she's done it all with us but would love a kid of her own to be enjoying her!

She has been out competing with a previous owner and would happily be back out their with her new kid.

Jasper has been a real dude to have about. He is straight forward and easy to have round in the paddock. LOVES jumping and is a real pocket rocket, locks on and really genuine to a fence, haven't seen a no in him. He has been out hacking, goes kindly on the flat and is just a good sort.

He can be a touch girthy especially out of work but been very manageable here. Currently barefoot.

Murphy is a fun little chap who is more woah than go. He loves getting out of the arena, has been bold and uncomplicated to jump and is pretty willing to give most things a go.

He has only recently been started under saddle so is still very green and has on a handful of occasions had a buck so best suited to an experienced home that can continue producing him!

Eva is a fun and straight forward mare who is taking to her new career really well. She loves getting out for a hack, hasn't been a spooky sort, enjoys learning and has been very uncomplicated to get jumping.

I see her thriving as a fun all rounder doing a bit of everything!

TB x Irish Draught Filly

Out of Katie's Sister

EMH 16.3hh

DOB 27.11.23

TV Mountain Emerald aka Emmy

Emmy is a beautiful filly with big flashy movement. I believe she will mature for the Riding Horse or Saddle hunter ring. She is well put together and a super nature, loves her humans. She leads, ties, covers & has had the farrier. Just been Microchipped & registered with the IDHSNZ. Will learn to float in the next few weeks. Ready to go to a new home at the end of May

This is a very tough sale, being one of the last Ballineen Blue Mountain fillies I was hoping to keep her but a change in circumstances and I really need to move her on aswell. My loss is your gain.

Located Oamaru, open to reasonable offers and payment plans.

Barry's Fake ID “Barry/Baz” 16.1hh, rising 8yo standardbred gelding by American Ideal. (Raced as 'Beauty Barry')

Baz is a much loved member of our family and he is only coming up for sale due to me being overcommitted at work and having to many horses. His other rider is unfortunately out with injury for at least a year, and sadly he is wasted sitting in the paddock.

He is super honest and will give anything a go, has an amazing showy trot, although does still pace when he's nervous or doesn't understand what your asking. Has jumped up to 80cm around home and at training, has competed to 65cm, fairly point and shoot, from any spot, as long as rider is confident. I got Barry off the track in 2022 from a Trainer I had previously worked for.

He has an amazing jump for a standy and has the basics of lovely flatwork. With more work he would be an awesome show horse. The basics are there, they just need polished now.

He is great to do most things with, at home or at a show it makes no difference. He's great to Float, angle or straight load. Has trucked, travels well once loaded, however he can be difficult to load on the truck (could be fine with another truck, my ramp is quite steep) he's good to worm, clip, shoe etc. Is currently barefoot and has been since August 2023 with no issues. He can however be a bit niggly to catch if he's feeling well. Nothing nasty. Just the cheeky catch me if you can...

Baz has been a real good sort whilst ridden. Happy bareback, and has also been ridden by my mum who "is too old for riding horses" and also my 12 year old sister, for reserve champion standardbred at a low level show with no issues. Has a current Standardbred passport, and also a height certificate, however it is no longer current.

He loves going for a hack out and is a great horse to be around (no buck, rear, bolt etc.).
Baz is a big horse and he does require a competent rider as he is forward moving, and is still a green ex pacer, and is a ride with a lot of power. Currently in light work, but he's a consistent type in work, or bought back in after 6 months off.

This will be a very sad sale for us and he will only go to a 5* plus home. Would prefer buyer seeing him and having a ride first, or be able to provide references if purchasing sight unseen.

Birch Hill Bindi, aka Stormy, seeks 5* home and new best friend.

134cm (current height certificate).  Talented, honest showjumper. Has the elegance and movement to do well in dressage; can hold her own in the B Pony ring. Suitable 2nd or 3rd pony for a kind, confident rider. Always comes home with ribbons! Schooling up to 85 cm, showing/winning up to 60cm and very ready for 70cm. Very sad sale, but rider truly outgrown. We've had Stormy 2 years; she was very low-mileage before we bought her. If I could add 13 cm to her height, we'd never sell her. She is a pleasure to own in all ways.

My daughter was a bit nervous about jumping when we bought Stormy and thus we focused on dressage and showing at first. But then they started on the showjumping and Stormy quickly showed us how talented she is and how much she loves jumping. They now fly around 50-60 cm courses together, and if they don't win a class they sure give the winner a run for their money! Stormy's thus been an excellent confidence-builder.

Showing wins include Champion Novice B Pony at NZRPS Horse & Pony Show 2023, plus a Reserve Champion in a show just before we bought her, and a Reserve Champion Green Pony with us. Two wins in only dressage show, Level 0.

Heaps of showjumping ribbons include:

Three 1sts & a 2nd: 45-60cm, Dunstan Rangiora Nov 2023

Three 1sts & a 4th: 50-60cm, Dunstan Amberley Nov 2023

1st and 2nd: 60 cm, Dunstan Rangiora Feb 2023

1st and 2nd: 50 cm, Roydvale Pony Club, Feb 2024

Reasonably forward but not hot, Stormy can get a bit energetic at shows but settles with lunging or a good canter in the warm-up. She has a fantastic, honest work ethic. Tries very hard to please and loves to be told “Good girl!” Can have the rare spook but not dirty.

Impeccable bloodlines. Full sister to Windsor Royal Return & Windsor Englishe Love ("Possum", who I believe did pony grand prix showjumping). Would make a stellar broodmare.

Sensible and sane, loves cuddles, attention and bum rubs. Great for farrier; floats/vans fine. Unfazed by clippers, dogs, trains, and cars. Fine around sheep/cattle if they’re not charging her. Thinks she’s a princess; loves her rugs. Wants a shelter shed or indoor stable in storms.

Likes a paddock mate but ok alone. Gets very anxious if paddock mate is taken away without her; no problem whatsoever leaving paddock mate behind in paddock. Does not like friends leaving her at shows, and we thus think it’s best to take her to shows without friends.

Teeth just done April 2024. Always sound/healthy with us; happy to share 2022 pre-purchase exam, which she passed easily.

Available for viewing weekends only, or weekdays by arrangement. Prospective buyer can arrange a lesson on her at the riding centre we attend. Videos available.

We're looking for a 5* home for her where she'll get the love and attention she thrives on.
