Really keen to find this beautiful mare a new home. Schooling beautifully over fences upto 80cm.

Belle 5yo mare by Iffraaj standing at about 15.2hh (approx.)

Belle is a sweet, workman like little lass.
From day one she’s been great to handle including on the ground and and super straightforward to ride, gets both leads easily & has never said no to a jump. Has played with a couple of one strides & lines.
Floats & trucks perfectly. Straight ties & cross ties with no issues at all.
We’ve taken her on an outing down to the river and she was very well behaved, brave/forward into the water and banks/hills/dips were easy.
Just been front shod and was very easy for the farrier.
Belle, although she is very easy is still green, can be keen to get the job done. I wouldn’t say she is hot, but can be strong and loves to work. Because of that we think she’d suit a more active lifestyle, show jumping or perhaps eventing!
Absolutely no dirt whatsoever, although not suitable for beginners or nervous riders.
If you’re looking for a nice blank canvas, feel free to flick Ardlussa Equine a message on facebook
More photos/videos of her there too.

ARE YOU LOOKING FOR YOUR NEXT TOP SADDLE HUNTER/ SHOW HUNTER PONY
Beautiful solid bay mare.

Bee was starting professionally under saddle and has slowly produced. And is very ready to start showing career. She has had limited outings, Due to having too many ponies on the go. Bee is a lovely natured pony easy to handle on the ground, the first one at the fence to say hello. Good to trim hoofs, loads well, stands happy tied to the float. Hacks on a long rein on her own or in company. Can be ridden without requiring lunging after having time off. Bee has lovely big moment at the trot, has a nice steady show ring canter, a light soft mouth. She can be ridden by a beginner but would benefit having a experience ridder carrying on with schooling her over winter ready for next season. She has no buck ,bolt or any naughtiness just green due to lack of milage, no qurks. She will Excel in the saddle hunter ring /Dressage and has a perfect show hunter rhythm over Jumps. doesn't look at fills or anything. Will only sell to experience competitive home, no beginners. Videos available on request.

Rocky, 8yo 159cm (smidgen under 15.3) gelding by Badlands Hannover. Well let down, in great condition ready to go!
Rocky has been great to have around right from the start.
Took to being ridden very well.
Loves hacking out, river rides, no bank or dip too scary for Rocky. Takes his time and always finds a good path.
Great for all grooming, floats perfectly, goes on the truck. Stands tied & isnt girthy.
Excellent solid feet, walks out well.
Stands well while others do stuff around him. (super videoing platform!)
The arena isn’t his happy place, he doesn’t have any interest in going in a contact or showing off any fancy foot work, he is more like an off roading/farm truck!
Canter is there but it is a bit elusive. In the arena he can looky, happy to go into detail about this, HOWEVER, out side of the arena he is very happy and hasn’t spooked once, including when 500 ducks flew out while we’re at the river!!

Wanting to go farming. Would make an excellent mustering, farm hack or high country/cavalcade horse.
All inquiries to Ardlussa Equine, there is videos of him too.
We are in Riversdale, Southland.

Beautiful all-rounder mare 4years 16.1hh
Dolly is a lovely big moving girl with loads of offer!

Loves getting out for a hack, schools very well walk trot and canter, pops small jumps kindly & has jumped upto 90cm on the lunge showing oodles of potential!
Going to make a perfect all rounder however her trot is lovely & she would seriously shine in the show ring!!
Recently broken to saddle but you wouldn’t know it with her very kind quiet nature.
We are located to Southland, Riversdale
We are asking two Kay for Dolly

Springdale Pandemonium, Panda

Springdale pony's don't need much introduction as they're all gorgeous ponies with excellent movement and "panda" is no different. Super cute spunky pony looking for his new home.

Panda came to us about 2 ish years ago, from Cambridge Lucy Dagnall Equestrian (more photos on her page).
With a confident rider panda is a super fun pony with loads of enjoyable character. He has taught countless riders how to canter while with us and taken them over their first decent sized jumps (60/70cm.)
Unfortunately our lesson program just inst the place for him, he is just too tricky for first ridden, however great on the lead line.

Panda isn't a "dirty" pony but with the inexperienced riders he really makes the kids work for it, you'd think he's stuck in knee deep mud, he has a pretty decent list of classic pony habits. (Napping in the middle, slowing down, standing still etc, no risk of bolt mind you ??)

He is best suited to a confident rider who can already canter and understands how to keep a pony moving forward. Beautifully schooled, goes in a contact with ease & has basic leg yields. Has been well schooled by adults throughout his life.

Panda has done loads in his life before us, Orginally from eventstars, where he had a prefect start to being ridden, they did loads with him, showing, inhand and under saddle, show jumping, farm riding, beach riding & ODE's.
He went onto another family where he took a 5yo through to another pony, he did everything with them - including hunting! Then he came to us, he has been well loved, previous owners want to keep in touch Full history is known.
In his time with us he has been showjumping, showing, farm riding & swimming. Even did a day on the cavalcade!!
Panda is excellent to catch, float, clip & do everything on the ground with.

He wants to go to a home where he can get back out there doing stuff with one rider.
MUST go to a home that is experienced with horses, like most small ponys, he is a smart.

Standing at 16hh on our stick and sired by Derryn.
This gelding has been waiting in line patiently.
He’s had a spell since his arrival a few weeks back, been in the paddock which is exposed to our neighbours.
The school kids and the new turf which is super active boarder his fence. (He’s been eating some apples and lunches I’m told)
Now rolling into some retraining but it’s only early days.
No paddock vices or Issues, a clean bill of health with a recent dental.
So being unraced he might tempt those who enjoy more of an unopened package but will require a rider who is confident with a young horse with less miles on the clock.
Eye catching with a heart of gold he’s certainly made room in mine since he walked off the truck.
Retirement reason - no speed on his side, owner not keen to continue.

Mac is a super cool dude that has done a fair bit since finishing up at the track. Although he’s primarily been focused on showjumping he’s also successfully evented to 80 as well as been to pony club and hacked all over the farm.

This season Mac has been competed by a capable 13 year old. Most recently coming 5th in the TIES final at horse of the year and has previously competed to 1.15m.

Mac works kindly on the flat with the basics established. He has a snaffle mouth in all phases, moves off the leg well and works in a nice consistent frame. He is more than capable of pulling off a polished test.

Mac is great to hack out and isn’t a hot ride. Ideally I see him fitting into a pony club home or as an all rounder for someone that wants a flash and capable horse that is safe and has a great nature.

Mac is great to shoe (shod all round), take to new places, float and truck etc.
