Announcements
We are pleased recent ponies we have sold have settled nicely into their new homes and are grateful to their new owners for keeping us informed on progress and sending pictures!
It is also lovely to hear about past ponies of Red Lane Equestrian. Many of whom are out on the showing or BSJA circuit and we are exstremely grateful to all the owners that keep in touch and inform us of their stories! It makes all the hard work and training we put into the ponies to give them a good start worthwhile.

Golden Miller, 15hh 6 yr connemara gelding. He is an absolute diamond. He is palamino in colour which is rare for a purebred connemara! He has an amazing jump. We have taken him hunting and showjumping, and have boxed him up for a hack around the woods. He is really laid back takes everything in his stride. He is very steady so we are feeding him oats and using spurs which has made him a little more forwards, but he is a very safe fun pony that jumps on springs!
Rodney, our 15.1hh connemara gelding is coming on very well. He went to his first Dressage competition in mid January and he was a star, he acted very mature and was very calm trotting around the warm up ring along side 6 or 7 other horses without a care in the world. By the time we came to do the test in the indoor arena he was a little tired but he showed great potential and shown some lovely steps in his test.
