As I approached enclosure at about 10.04 on the Sailing Club access road in E9, I heard a loud whinnying from the direction of the woods in E9.
I entered the enclosure via the cattle grid in E9 and as I headed north on the compound access road, I heard another loud whinnying, this time from my rhs, (IE the woods in E9. Then two ponies crossed (east to west) the compound access road in front of me.
I entered E9 woods and north into E8. From there I was able to look down onto the open areas of D8 and D9. There were about 40-50 soldiers mustered in the D8 open area, while all 6 ponies were grazing in the open area of D9.
I moved down into the clearing and got off my bike between the soldiers and the ponies and about 50 yards from the ponies.
The soldiers moved off towards the E8 weeks,
after which the ponies approached closer to me with one close enough to stroke, (dif pony to previous days). I was able to observe all six ponies grazing contently and moving freely. They did not appear to have any issues.
