ISO: L, L to P or potential P for young rider who has recent outgrown her pony:

-14.2 - 15.2h range

-Must be good on the ground, to trailer, on the trails, off the farm, able to be safely handled by kids at pony club events and shows

-Needs to have some show experience (eventing experience is a bonus)

-Prefers more of a forward ride than a kick ride provided it’s safe (no buck, etc)

Budget 4s or lowest 5s for L, low 5s for P. Excellent pony club home!

Fantastic on-site lease opportunity in central NJ in a program w/ FEI 3* event trainer.

ISO two equines for clients:

Pony #1: Kid-safe, all-around pony with show experience (preferably eventing)
Prefer a more forward ride that loves to jump, provided it is safe and correctly schooled. Capable of jumping at least 2’9, and has changes (doesn’t have to be auto)
Ideally 13-14h, but would consider smaller for a perfect fit, s*x and breed not important
Must have excellent ground manners
Budget for L 10 carrots, purchase twenty carrots, if P, age range 8 – 14 YO.

Horse #2: Horse for an AA seeking to learn to jump
Horse must be safe, excellent ground manners, good all-around, but with established english training (discipline unimportant). Must have experience and be quiet off farm. Capable of jumping at least 2’3.
Age range 8 – 14 years.
Ideally 15- 16h, slight preference for a gelding.
L or P, L to P option would be big plus. Budget $20 carrots.

Lease would be located in Princeton/Hopewell NJ area in a program with FEI 3* eventing trainer.

Bit of a mixed bag today- fez was fantastic for his move up to novice, but in a bending line )’(not pictured here) on XC my stirrup broke 🤯, and I fell off 🤷‍♀️ here are some of the highlights before I hit the ground- we’re both ok and will be back to fight another day. I think I saw that the show photographer was shooting the combination. I fell on- so stay tuned for possible fall sequence photos upcoming!

Fez getting a massage and red light therapy from Therapetic Hands: from Equine to Canine to help him feel his best for HPNJ tomorrow!
