Pony for sale

Kingslea Escapade (aka Richie)

Richie is an 9yr registered Welsh part bred gelding by Adlou Postie
I have had Richie since he was a weanling and have carefully produced him to where he is today, he has a lot of potential that should be put to good use.

He is a half brother to both Kingslea Chat Up and Kingslea High Jinx (who I previously owned since a 3yr in 2014 and sold in 2020), both of these ponies have qualified and competed at Horse of the year in different disciplines.

I started carefully producing him as a rising 4yr during covid and from there on he has just gotten better and better. He has not had a lot of competition experience with school study, Thoroughbred Racing commitments and working getting in the way, but has proven from his 4 competition outings that he will make some lucky kid more than happy in the competition arena. I have only competed him in showjumping up to 70cm and at home schooling 80cm+ so far but he will be schooling bigger tracks the more I produce him before being sold. His first show he was at an Interschools Showjumping at St Peters in 2022 and just had a learning curve but still jumped great and showed how quick he learns from the first day to the second. His second show we were at Gisborne in 2022 in the practice ring not putting a foot wrong. His 3rd show we were at the first Pegasus Cup at Takapoto in 2023 where he jumped 4 rounds all clear and placing in all getting two 2nds and two 4ths. His most recent show was at Woodhill in 2024 he had 4fts but still placing 2nd. He has also had a few training days with the big showjumpers at Showfields in previous years.

As I am now 18 and no longer able to compete ponies, his outings will be limited to practice days and schooling at various facilities in the Waikato. In the meantime, Richie is in work and will be working his way up the heights slowly to keep him confident so he can use all his potential correctly. I will also be taking him out and schooling him around cross country and practice show hunter courses at home to expand his versatility.

Most recently in December 2025 I took Richie to Pleasant View for the first time where I showed him cross country jumps for the first time, up to 80-85cm and he exceeded all expectations jumping everything I pointed him at without hesitation. He has also recently had a young 10yr novice rider on him which never phased him at all. He was a perfect gentleman each time she rode him.

This is a sad sale as I have thoroughly enjoyed working with Richie and his amazing cheeky personality, but as I can no longer compete ponies, it is time he finds his new little rider to have fun with. He will only be sold to a 5 star home. He is available to try any time, he is most suited to a confident pony rider who wants a pony to keep producing up the heights in whatever discipline they desire and enjoy placing at every show they go to.

Attached is a video of Richie’s most recent flat work, jumping and cross country from pleasant view over the last couple months.
