DoCDoc came from a herd of ponies in Lesotho (he stills has clan cuts of his ears!). He is about 16yrs old and he is the biggest baby on the planet. He is also terrified of cats! Doc is a very comfortable pony to ride and he's great for teaching the kids how to canter. He has a lot of character and enjoys stealing and chewing random items, crops and people's shoes are some of his favourite things to chew on!

JohnnyJohnny is the brat of the group. He came to Newmarket when he was 2, he is now 7! He always wants his own way and was quite a handful when he was first used in lessons. Johnny hates injections and his mane being combed or cut. His favourite treat is apples and he loves his food! Now that he's a bit older he is a great pony for any rider and is willing to do just about anything for anyone... as long as you can tack him up!

Handy AndyHandy Andy is a spunky little pony, he's 18 years old and is the newest member of the team. He was once burnt in a fire so he can be a little shy until he gets to know you but he is a kind pony and likes to be handled gently. He loves to jump, and often jumps over the paddock fences when he's bored.

StardustStardust is a 7 year old Appaloosa mare, she came from the same farm as Moccachino and he's her best friend, they always share the same paddock. She's very sweet and friendly and absolutely loves being groomed. Stardust is kind to the kids and can be very playful and inquisitive. She loves carrots, but doesn't really like apples very much.
