‼️SOLD‼️
⭐️ For Sale: Maisie ⭐️

11.2h - Welsh A mare - 15 years old

Maisie has been at the riding school for 3 years used for lead rein, beginner, learning to canter and jump lessons. The reason for her sale is due to no fault of her own, we believe she would enjoy a one-to-one home doing activities in and out of the arena.

Maisie would be suited as a second or family pony. She is super in all aspects. Previous to the riding school she successfully competed in showing lead rein & first ridden at local and county shows. She enjoys jumping both in the arena and XC field. She has good bloodline and has had one foal.

She is lovely in the stable to groom (and cuddle!) and good to shoe, clip & hack and has had no lameness.

She is looking for her next jockey(s) to take them through the levels.
