Meet Elf, a 5-year-old, full-up 138cm Connemara mare who is as genuine as they come. Fully registered and N/N for hoof wall, she boasts outstanding breeding—by Goblin King, sired by the legendary Dexter Leam Pondi, one of the most respected Connemara stallions with an exceptional showjumping career. Her pedigree speaks for itself.
Elf is an old head on young shoulders. Despite her age, she is rock-solid and would happily attend a Pony Club rally tomorrow and behave like a seasoned schoolmistress. She is incredibly versatile and will excel in any discipline, whether as a BS pony, working hunter, Pony Club star, or an exceptional all-rounder. On the flat, she is soft, willing, and responsive. To a fence, she is brave and honest—she doesn’t seem to know how to refuse! Fillers, planks, logs, water trays—nothing phases her.
Her temperament is second to none. She would take a novice around a full course of jumps without hesitation.
She is one of the most unflappable ponies we have ever sat on, making her a true confidence giver.
She hacks alone or in company, is fantastic in open fields, and is always ridden in a snaffle—never strong, fizzy, or silly. She loads and travels easily, is barefoot and great for the farrier, and stands perfectly to clip. She has never bucked, reared, or napped.
Recently jumped double clear everyday at a showjumping festival with 2 young jockeys that had never sat on her before! She looked after the youngster and went steady away and then stepped up a gear for some jump off turns with her older sister.
Completely clean and sound, she has no lumps, bumps, sarcoids, or splints.
Elf is a truly special pony, and a rare find
