Snowflake is a stunning 11.3hh, 15yo Cremello gelding. This little man has been attending Pony club since he was 3yo. He has always been in a horsey home and is the most compliant, easy to manage pony, both on the ground and under saddle. He is just a pleasure to be around. He would suit Lead line/confident beginner/second pony. He is free moving, and has the best breaks you will ever find on any horse/pony. Just the slightest indication that you want to halt and he halts, give him the go signal and he will stay in that rhythm, in that gait, until told otherwise.Snowflake is a sweet, friendly pony who loves attention and has a genuine willingness to please. He is an allrounder under saddle, safe, responsible, reliable, consistent and well educated. Suitable as a lead line or for a confident beginner looking to step up to their next pony. He has a lovely soft natural way of going and a natural correct head carriage even with the smallest jockey on board. He is always first to the gate and will stand there all day with kids brushing and milling around him to do all those things kids love to do. The kids can do it all with him and all on their own with confidence, catching, saddling and then loading him on the float.Snowflake is a pony that is not bossy in the paddock or matey with other horses. He is happy for the kids to take him away from his paddock mate for a ride and no issue from him at all. The other horses love him so much, they are usually the ones kicking up a stink. Snowflake has always been around stock, motorbikes, dogs and farm machinery and dare we say it, pretty much bombproof. He is the best pony ever to lead off other horses too, he just goes along side any other horse with out any fuss. Never any nonsense at all and just trots up as required. He has been to Pony club rallies, done heaps of trail riding and some stock work around the farm, camps, gymkhanas, Ag shows and most of all he loves to jump. If there is a little kid out there that wants a sup...

Ive owned Lars since 2019. I bought him directly off the track at age 9 (he wasnt racing competitively at this point, but because of his quiet and genuine nature they held onto him to train amateur jockeys).He still has some quirks from his racing days which Ill start with:He is not smart around fences (hes got scars on his back legs to show for it and for this reason lives in paddock boots 24/7).He can still be horse-shy at times. Particularly in the warmup ring. Hell need someone with confidence to ride him out of it when it does arise. The good news is that it is actually easy to do once you build a relationship with him and know the trick. His horse shyness is genuine rather than any dirt on his part. He doesnt buck, bolt or rear.As with all ottbs, hell need his feet done regularly (Ive always had him in shoes) and a joint supplement (Ive always had him on 4cyte). Hes never had issues with either but should be maintained for his longevity.Now thats out of the way, Lars is the most genuine and honest horse Ive ridden. In typical bay gelding fashion he tries his heart out to do whatever you ask of him. He is a lovely type with a beautiful, comfortable rhythm and trusting nature.Lars has competed and placed in countless horse trials (80cm, training 95cm), show jumping (up to 90cm) and dressage (novice) competitions over the years Ive owned him. Hes particularly bold and adjustable on cross country which is his real strength. He still needs some confidence show jumping which he gets from his rider, and he produces a lovely, consistent dressage test. That being said he is not currently in work and is priced as such.Even now when hes not been in consistent work hes been a dream to hop on and go for a trail ride, do some flat work or pop down the cross country course for a jump. Ive ridden him through town regularly past guard dogs, trucks and all sorts of chaos and hes been cool as a cucumber.Lars would suit a confident rider wanting a capable, experienced horse to co...
