🐴played games
🐴 competed at mounted games
🐴 refined some of our horse handling skills
🐴 learnt how to ride the obstacle course with confidence
🐴 ate a lot including breakfast at the table with our favourite miniature horse ‘Buttons’

🐴‘Rachem Firefly’ 🐴
Mallawa Park Sh'Boom x Amberwood Park Touch of Magic
5yo, approx 12.1h, 3rd Gen Australian Pony Filly
Liver Chesnut

Gorgeous little girl with great movement.. if you're on the hunt for a leading rein pony then you can't look past this!

Fly has attended pony club, clinics and done some trail riding and jumping with her 10 year old rider. She has also spent time being ridden by a professional rider since being broken in and attended a few comps, placing well.

She has been exposed to all your typical family/farm activities including motorbikes, kids running around, machinery etc

Easy to handle and show prep.
Can sometimes be a little stand off ish to catch until she bonds with you but then will come straight up! She is easily handled and tacked up by the kids.

Fly has stabled well overnight at busy shows and ties to the float alone, she can wriggle around at times but then settles quickly, will not pull back.
She is the perfect pony for a competent, enthusiastic and confident small child who is established in canter with an independent seat and soft hands. No nervous riders.
Fly will need some more outings to continue to build consistency in her confidence and performance in unfamiliar places as she can sometimes need reassurance but isn’t hot and is easily ridden in a snaffle.
With a few more excursions, this pony will thrive!!
She would make an amazing leading rein mount.
Impressive movement, will excell at showing or pony dressage but certainly well suited to a PC Mount and enjoys the variety!
Our preference is to sell her to an experienced horse home, she is a sweet girl, full of personality and is ready to make another child very happy.
Extremely reluctant sale on behalf of her owner who has too many ponies, Fly just needs and wants her own little person!
