Do you have any contacts in the pony club? There is usually a lot of smaller ponies that know their job well pass round different families teaching little ones to ride in the pony club.. I have friends who have done this for all their kids and have had numerous fabulous ponies..
I dont have any direct contacts with many PC people but I may try to find out! thanks for that - mind's gone a bit blank and there doesn't seem to be much out there at the mo!
Mention it to your farrier too, they seem to know everything that's going on & everybody talks to their farrier, so he may just know of something suitable!
