I suppose at this stage they are still 'townies' and might not realise that horses don't just stand around in fields waiting to be ridden by passing strangers. Nicola maybe said it without thinking, and then Peter saw it as a dare. I still think they were being cheeky; but I can see that the pony needed to be featured strongly at this point to make it believable that Nicola had a pocket full of sugar the next day.
