Thin Ponies on Yeoland Down

It was bought to our attention that there were some very thin looking ponies on Yeoland Down, our welfare assistant went to check on them. There was a group of five ponies that were, indeed, thin. Two were worse than the others, however the ponies were eating hay that had been left out. 
On further investigation the owner of these ponies was established, these ponies are being fed on a daily basis and due to them being very close to our rehabilitation yard we are able to monitor them daily.
We are hoping that they will start putting on weight once the spring growth starts and if they lose further condition we will be able to liaise with the owner to have them removed.
