That sounds a suitably short pony ride for young children. I don't think the comment that there are no brakes in its design is meant to be taken seriously, it is just a warning that a pony ride can be a bit more erratic than a ride in a car.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Hi Jack! Thanks, again I am a bit confused here with understanding of the horse they are talking about. Pls read the following passages; В конструкции детской лошадки нет тормозов. Маршрут катания на детской лошадке - два круга вокруг фонтана или 5 минут.

neutral  Piotrnikitin: I tend to think it's a toy horse. "Нет тормозов" may be a joke, but "опрокидывание" is hard to imagine in a living pony.

Rock and Ride Pony


Explanation:
I think the term will depend on what exactly this лошадка can or cannot do. If it looks something like the one in the link below, maybe you can go with Rock N' Ride Pony.

pony/horse tricycle


Explanation:
Perhaps, this is rather a tricycle than a (rocking) horse.

this is what it is :-)

Then it is just a riding (toy) horse.

There have been so many videos of this horse already, before the Asker explained what exactly being asked... I am sure it has a proper "name" on the American or British websites.
