🏇 Fergus 🏇
14.2hh | 4-year-old Pure Bred class one Connemara Gelding | Dun
If you’re looking for a genuine young horse with a kind nature, a sensible outlook and bags of potential, Fergus could be your boy.
Fergus is a quality pure bred Connemara gelding with Class 1 breeding throughout his pedigree. He has been given the time to mature and has been produced slowly and correctly. We’ve never rushed his education, allowing him to grow in confidence and enjoy learning at his own pace.
His temperament is one of his greatest strengths. Around the yard he’s affectionately known as the “soppy Labrador” because he genuinely loves people and thrives on attention. He’s the sort of horse who enjoys being around people and is a pleasure to handle.
Already, as a 4-year-old, he has:
⭐ Been placed at a couple of showing shows and working hunters -behaved well throughout.
⭐ Been to clear round showjumping, taking everything in his stride.
🌟 placed at arena eventing
🌟 XC schooled
⭐ Travelled away from home and gained valuable experience.
⭐ Shown a willing attitude and always tried his best with everything we’ve asked of him.
He has a kind, trainable nature and genuinely enjoys learning. Like many young horses, he’s growing in confidence with every outing. He has never shown any nastiness and is always willing to try.
On the yard, Fergus is a pleasure to have around:
✔ Good to catch.
✔ Excellent to groom, tack up and mount.
✔ Stands well for the farrier.
✔ Loads and travels well on the lorry.
✔ Happy living in a mixed herd with mares and geldings.
✔ Hacks alone /company
✔ Blemish free.
Fergus is still only four and very much at the beginning of his ridden education. He is not the finished article, nor should he be at this stage. He has been given an excellent foundation and is now ready for someone to continue his education and enjoy producing a quality young horse.
With time, patience and further education, we believe Fergus has all the attributes to develop into a fantastic Riding Club, Pony Club or grassroots event horse. He has the versatility to turn his hoof to a bit of everything, whether that’s showing, showjumping, eventing, hunting, clinics, camps, fun rides or simply being someone’s much-loved all-round partner.
With several young horses to produce, we simply can’t keep them all, so Fergus is now looking for a home where he can continue his education and fulfil his potential.
Because of his age and stage of education, Fergus would be best suited to a knowledgeable home, or someone working with an experienced instructor, who will continue producing him correctly and allow him to reach his full potential.
Fergus is a much-loved horse looking for his forever home. If you’re searching for an honest, kind young Connemara with a lovely temperament, quality breeding and an exciting future ahead of him, we’d love to hear from you.
