BLACKTHORN PICTURE PERFECT – “FLO”
Exceptional Class 1 Connemara mare
Approx. 14.1hh | 5 years old | Dapple Grey
Snaffle-mouthed
Flo is a beautifully bred Class 1 Connemara with quality, presence and an outstanding temperament. By a famous sire “Contepomi Cashel” out of “Blackthorn Pollyana” renowned for her kind nature, Flo truly combines breeding, ability and trainability. With an excellent grading score on her own merit.
She has enjoyed an excellent showing career from a young age, winning the British Connemara Breed Show when shown in hand as a 2-year-old. Highlights include Reserve Champion at North Somerset Show and 2nd in hand at Royal Windsor as a 3-year-old.
Backed and carefully produced, Flo has gone on to achieve wins and placings in show jumping, dressage and showing. Most recently she won both her dressage classes, took two firsts in showing and was Champion. She is a fantastic prospect for PC, show jumping, eventing, NSEA or working hunter, with plenty more to give.
She has been recently ridden by an 11-year-old, is sensible and straightforward, happy hacking at dusk, confident on busy roads and bold across open spaces. She is safely jumping ditches on the heathland and is always ridden snaffle-mouthed.
Flo has a lovely, affectionate character, enjoys learning and is easy in every way. She is good to clip, shoe, load and travel, and is fully up to date with vaccinations, teeth, physio and farrier.
Sad sale as her young jockey has sadly lost interest, and Flo would be wasted as a field ornament. She truly deserves a partnership with either a small adult or a child/teenager who will enjoy sharing her enthusiasm, love of work and fun outlook on life.
A genuine, talented and kind mare looking for her next best friend.
