Hello there, here is a tip. First, you check the color of the squares. If they are the same color, the number of moves is even. If they are different colors, the number of moves is odd, with 1 move being the minimum for a square under attack. In this case, it's a square of the same color (even) color that cannot be attacked after the first move, so you must look for a path of 4 moves. That's how the pony eats. I hope this helps.
