Colby is a quality pure breed Irish Draught gelding that I imported as a foal from Ireland and have owned ever since. He was professionally broken this summer and has been given a varied and correct start to his ridden career.

He has had a busy first season, including riding holidays, hunter trials, fun rides and beach rides, and has hunted with me this winter, where he proved bold, genuine and sensible. He has always jumped everything asked of him and shows a very honest and brave attitude.

A true heavyweight type with a leg in each corner, a great shoulder and a good length of neck. He has super paces and a very good jump, making him a serious prospect for eventing, showing or hunting.

Good to do in all ways with no stable vices. Hacks happily alone or in company.

Still green in the school, as his education has focused more on getting him out and about, but he works in a lovely outline, is nicely off the leg and has good transitions.

Looking for a knowledgeable, experienced home where he will not be wasted. Not suitable for a novice rider or anyone looking specifically for a weight carrier.

A genuine, talented young horse with a very bright future.

Guss is a 16.1hh 4yo Irish gelding and a true confidence giver. He happily hacks out alone or in company and is rock solid in traffic. He loads and travels in anything, is always ridden in a snaffle, and has no stable vices.

He has hunted this season and is one of the most mannerly and straightforward young horses you could find. Guss stands like a rock at the meet, is sensible with hounds, and has never lifted a leg or shown any nastiness towards other horses.

He has competed in clear round jumping at Felbridge up to 80cm and has schooled around East Byshe arena eventing, taking everything in his stride. He will happily work in the arena, although he is still green, as expected for his age.

Guss is easy to do in all ways — good to catch, clip, load and shoe. He is an honest, kind gelding with a fantastic temperament and is a real friend to have around the yard.

A genuine, unspoilt young horse with the best attitude, ready to continue his education and excel in a variety of homes.

He is a true model of the breed—a beautiful, well-made pony with good bone, excellent shoulder and hind end, and three balanced, rhythmical paces that make him eye-catching in any arena. His traditional Connemara head, with a bright, intelligent, kind eye, completes the picture.

Show Record & Potential

Quinn is already proving himself in the ring. He was Reserve Champion at this year’s Sligo County Show, showing his correctness, way of going, and natural quality against strong competition. He is the type judges notice—clean, elegant, and well-schooled for his age without being overproduced.

He is an excellent candidate for ridden Connemara classes, performance classes, dressage, working hunter, and eventing. With his paces and temperament, he has the scope to continue progressing quickly.

Loose jumps over 1.20m effortlessly
Brave, careful, and naturally athletic

He has the qualities to excel in eventing, hunter trials, pony club, jumping leagues, and he would also make a superb hunter, as he’s straightforward, balanced, and not phased by new places or fences.

Hacking & Everyday Riding

Quinn is excellent to hack out:

Alone or in company
Good in traffic
Sensible in open fields and new environments
Happy to pop drains, logs, or simply stroll home on a loose rein
He is the same ride after a day off and does not need to be worked down—he has a naturally calm, willing attitude.

Who He Suits

Quinn would suit:

A confident teenager looking for a competitive, fun partner
A mother–daughter share
A rider wanting to produce a talented young horse with incredible potential
Someone wanting a safe but forward-thinking pony with a great work ethic
He is a genuine all-rounder with the quality and brain to excel in any direction.

Breeding

Quinn is beautifully bred, from some of Ireland’s best and most proven Connemara lines:

Sire: Lough Melvin Gorteen
Dam lines: Western Boy × Aran Flight
He carries the traditional Connemara traits—intelligence, courage, athleticism, and a kind, cooperative nature.

• Well hunted

Beautiful 16.2hh 2012 Irish (green book) bay gelding, out and out seasoned hunter; his main job throughout his years has been hunting.

This lovely lad knows the hunting job inside out with several seasons under his belt, he will cross any country and jumps whatever is in front of him, a mannerly, enjoyable ride that can operate.

Rolex has three nice paces on the flat, works in a lovely frame and has a beautiful canter, snaffle mouthed and would absolutely produce a nice test.

Unbothered by fillers Rolex will just get on with it jumping wise, plenty of airtime in his tank and he gives you loads of confidence, will go off any stride and knows his job. He’s a proper hunter but a nice enough horse to go on and do any job, he’s hunter trialled, done a few SJ shows, beach rides and fun rides.

An absolute sweetheart to have in the yard. Friendly, affectionate and kind. The best hack in the yard, any traffic, any company, he doesn’t care.

Genuine mannerly hunter open to any vet or trainer.

Trial period available.
