Bear is a 15.2hh, 7yo grey Class 1 Connemara gelding with an exceptional combination of performance, versatility, and proven success.
By Coosheen Stormboy and out of Knockferry Joy, bred by Inbhear Connemara Ponies, Bear has enjoyed an impressive showing career. He is a previous winner at Balmoral Show and has earned prestigious titles including Reserve Supreme Ridden Pony and Champion Ridden Connemara Gelding. He has successfully competed in Working Hunter and Mountain & Moorland classes, always standing out in the ring thanks to his presence, movement, and quality.
Beyond the showing world, Bear has proven himself to be an incredibly versatile and genuine all-rounder. With his current jockey he has attended clinics, camps, Pony Club, Riding Club, and NSEA events across all disciplines. He has attended stay-away shows and settles well away from home, making him ready for the next step in his training.
Showjumping has come naturally to him, having competed at BS 85cm/BN level and qualifying for the 85cm Amateur Championships. He schooling at 1/1.05m at home with scope to progress further.
Bear is beautifully produced with three balanced paces and a particularly outstanding canter. He works in a soft, correct outline and consistently achieves high dressage scores, highlighting both his trainability and quality.
Bear thrives on work, loves to be active and have a varied life, he is a much-loved member of the family and finding him the right experienced forever home is of utmost importance. He is only offered for sale due to sadly being outgrown, making this a genuinely heartbreaking decision.
Sad sale on behalf of his owner as he’s outgrown
