39/40” real leg in each corner 12 year old unregistered shetland gelding. We sold Thomas in April this year after doing loads of hacking, local SJ and him being a great pony to get my novice nephews confident and have fun. He hasn’t been ridden much over the summer due to the jockey in his new home preferring his motorbike. Since he has been back he has been out hacking up the road and over fields. In the school jumping and being handled by children. He is great to catch, clip, load. A perfect safe starter pony. Herefordshire please WhatsApp 07956025712 for videos
