I need some help please on wording an add for my newly backed 4yrs Welsh D pony.

The issue I need some help with is that he has proved to be an absolute star in his training so far and I obviously need someone with experience to continue his training but if I put ' no novices' it implies he is a bit of a handful so I need the wording to strike a balance between no novices but not a handful ??? I really don't want someone who over estimated their capabilities and ruins the pony at a key time in his education as he has the makings of a rather lovely RC chap.

Along the lines of kind, experienced home required for further education of well mannered newly backed pony but obviously less wordy

Any thoughts and how did you word your adds.

Thanks
 
Agree with appylass above - also if you state that he's just backed that might help too. You will still get the idiots calling to ask when they can take him round a BE90 etc etc whatever you put.....

I bought a just backed 4 year old last year and very much appreciated that I was told from the outset that she'd only been sat on for the first time 6 weeks ago.
 
Perhaps something along the lines of 'seeking home with riders experienced at bringing on youngsters'.

The other one I've seen is 'backed and ready to start education' which explicitly states what he is.

I think you'll get numpties regardless, but isn't that the case with all adverts?
