Macho was born with us. His entire history is known. Our daughter has neatly trained Macho herself over the past 6 years to the level he is at now. For the first few years she only rode dressage and for about a year showjumping has been taken up seriously. Macho is a pony who is far from reaching his peak. Over the past year he has been competed more in showjumping and has always continued his dressage training.
He has attended multi-day competitions in Texel, Wierden and Nisse.

Macho is a performance pony based on his dressage grading at the New Forest pony studbook.
Over the past year he has achieved various 1st prizes and regularly finished in the top 3.
Last summer in Nisse he won the Z1 dressage class with over 68% and was clear in showjumping all 3 days, placing in the prizes twice.

In daily handling Macho is a super sweet pony, social towards other horses and ponies. He turns out in the field in a mixed herd.

Loads easily into the trailer and horse lorry.
Behave well at the farrier, is shod on front feet only.
Clinically inspected on 10 August 2026.

Macho is a sensitive but honest pony. He is best suited to a rider who has already gained some experience in competitive sport. We do not find him suitable for a beginner. We also strongly prefer parents with experience with ponies.

We are looking for a 5* home where he can go out in the field or paddock during the day and be stabled at night. That is what he is currently used to.

Macho is in the slightly higher price range.
