‘More!’ 15-month-old rider loves her first ride on tiny stallion – who has his dinner in the kitchen

Tiny rider Lula Hamilton may not be able to speak much yet but she knows “pony” – and “more”, which was her call after her very first ride, aged 15 months, on stallion Simba.

Lula’s mother Tamsin told H&H she and her husband Jamie bought the miniature Shetland for Lula’s first birthday in December, and the pair have developed a close bond.

“It’s just so sweet,” she said. “It’s a very trusting relationship. I wasn’t brought up in the horsey world, but I’m realising now the bond you can have with them, it’s really lovely.
