That first picture cracks me up; I can't believe how well he's looking when he jumped like that!

Not quite a poundland pony; paid £120 for her as a straight off the forest wild thing at Beaulieu Rd sales. She's now cleaning up at the local BS shows with a young rider.

Never been lucky enough to find jewels going cheap - how fortunate they all are to have found you wonderful owners. What a lovely, lovely thread :o
 
Why can't i be that lucky? How on earth do you come across them? I'm not being a tight @r$e but i have a good loving home to offer to a horse and would love to help a horse and person out... you never know...

Great to see these ponies doing proud though.
 
I just asked everyone I knew if there were any racehorses going free. Ended up trying two from two different people. Picked the second one in the end and they even delivered him. Had him eight years this year, he's now twenty and knackered but he'll stay with me til the end.

I also had a free pony a while ago, saw an ad in the local paper for that one.
 
Jem cost me £100, and came with a bad reputation!

Since I have had her, we have been to the Badminton Grassroots Championships, and we finished the 2012 season ranked 7th in the BE foundation points league table :D.

My horse of a life time <3 the best Xmas gift ever from YO!
I realised, while galloping up a hill, feeling in total control and then again when walking past road works, that he really is an absolute super star. It's taking a LOT of hard work to get him like this, but even more rewarding knowing I did (most of) it! :D

My free pony :) and by far the most easiest and genuine horse I have had. I must admit when I got given her for nothing I expected a few issues to be coming along with her but she has been amazing and is everything to me. :D

The first day.

Free to me; my beautiful PRE - abused, misunderstood and now happy, willing and no longer petrified of life: the beautiful soul (and yes, he has no tail).


Gorgeous horse! I'm curious- what happened to his tail? He suits the tail-less look :D
