A good temperament is of course the first priority. A good Pony Club pony must be confident enough
to have a go at everything even if the young rider is a bit nervous. It does not have to have the movement of a
dressage pony but it needs to have good steering and good speed control to
allow you to do jumping and games and learn the confidence to go fast.
Choose a pony with a good mouth and not to big stride.
The best pony goes easily forward to a light kick, but not too forward so it
frightens the rider or to lazy so it gets boring.
