Captain has truly stunning paces.  I can see him going a long way in the dressage world.  Naturally uphill and a pleasure to train.  He rides beautifully in front of the leg without being hot or sharp.

Keen, natural jumper, always jumping what is infront of him without a fuss.

Clean limbed, recent clean 5 stage vetting complete with a full set of clean x rays all available to view.

Captain has been in the family since he was a foal so his whole history is known.  He has been well handled and looked after.

No vices. N/N for hoof wall.

Felix combines looks and ability with the kindest temperament.

Very successfully shown in-hand (once) where he won both his classes and went on to be reserve champion. He was mannerly all day, brilliant with my children, on and off the trailer and travelling etc.

He was bought from Ireland in May always with the intention of producing him to sell. He has settled into family life with us brilliantly and for most of that time has lived in a field by himself just casually seeing the children’s ponies coming and going. He loves to see us but is in no way bothered when we leave him behind. He’s also happy with others.

He’s long reined all over the moors by himself and sometimes with my daughter and her pony tagging along and I then took a long time leaning over and getting on and off so he’s very settled in that regard.

He’s very recently broken and riding where he has taken everything in his stride - mainly hacking with a couple of times in an arena (we don’t have one). Good with all the traffic he has seen as well as cows, sheep, goats, dogs, children on bikes etc. He’s also been out a couple of times on our own when I’ve had no one else to go with. In company he will go at the front or back.

This is a brilliant opportunity to purchase a top quality 3yr old that has been slowly and correctly produced to this point. He has all the makings of a top class show pony / WHP and would also make the most perfect all round family pony / mother daughter share. At this stage he would only suit an experienced rider due to his age but there’s no reason why a competent child couldn’t ride him in the near future with knowledgeable parents or professional help in the background.

Clean X-rays taken this summer.

Perfect First Pony – Safe, Sweet & Steady 4, rising 5yo Purebred Connemara Gelding

Meet Silver, a truly lovely 4-year-old purebred Connemara gelding standing at 14.2hh. With his calm, kind nature and beautifully quiet temperament, Silver is the type of pony that’s very hard to find. He’s safe, steady, and reliable, making him an ideal choice for novice riders, a mother-daughter share, a riding school program, or a young child moving up from smaller ponies.

Silver is easy and uncomplicated in every way. He is a dream to handle on the ground—easy to catch, box, shoe, and hack, and he is perfectly sensible in traffic, he will hack out alone or in company. Under saddle, he’s just as easy. He never gets strong, silly, or spooky, and he takes care of his rider every step of the way. He’s laid-back without being lazy and has a lovely attitude towards his work, making him a pleasure to produce.

This gorgeous gelding has a very pretty head and is beautifully put together. He moves well, with three super paces, a soft, kind mouth, and a naturally balanced way of going. Silver is also very capable over a fence—he’s jumping confidently up to 90cm at home and is honest and straightforward to a jump. He’s the type you can point at a fence and trust him to take you over, making him an excellent confidence-giver for a child or smaller teen.

Silver would make a fantastic Pony Club allrounder. He’ll happily take a little rider from crosspoles all the way up through the levels, always giving his best and building confidence. He is quiet enough for beginners but talented enough to keep progressing with more advanced riders too.

He is a fully registered purebred Connemara gelding, with lovely old-fashioned bloodlines: Dunloughan Troy x Coral Star x Mervyn Kingsmill—breeding that brings together temperament, quality, and soundness. Silver has no stable vices and is open to any vetting.

His price includes delivery to your yard anywhere in the UK, and if he’s not the right fit, an exchange can be arranged—we’re confident you’ll love him. Be sure to watch his video to see what a special pony he is.

For more information, call 00353868077626 or email gertytynan@gmail.com. Silver is ready to make someone very happy—don’t miss this one!

An absolutely beautiful pony – destined for the top!

Boris is suited to open classes, workers, or would make the most amazing junior pony.

By “Lightening Star” out of the outstanding mare “Derrylackey May,” Boris has tremendous breeding, excellent conformation, good bone, clean limbs, and straight, correct movement. He also has the most exquisite head.

At his first ever ridden show, he was perfectly behaved - no plugs, calmers, or endless working-in needed. He simply went in and did his job with a lovely, willing attitude.

Boris has now started jumping and is showing real natural ability and carefulness over a fence. He also hacks beautifully both alone and in company, taking everything in his stride.

He’s super safe, sensible, and easy in every way - a genuine pony who gives his rider confidence and would make a wonderful all-rounder for a child, small adult, or competitive junior.

Top Class Allrounder – Kind & Talented 4, rising 5yo Class 1 Connemara Mare

Introducing Sophie, a stunning 4-year-old Class 1 purebred Connemara mare, standing at 14.2hh. Sophie is the definition of a traditional Connemara pony—she has a leg in each corner, a beautiful head, a kind eye, and a calm, generous nature that makes her a pleasure to work with every day.

Sophie has the ideal temperament for a novice rider, a riding school program, a mother-daughter share, or a young rider wanting to do a bit of everything. She is sweet, steady, and exceptionally quiet, both to handle and to ride. Her laid-back attitude and genuine nature make her the kind of pony that gives confidence and always tries her best.

Under saddle, Sophie is nicely schooled with three balanced paces and a lovely rhythm. She works in a soft outline and listens well to her rider. Over fences, she really shines—she has a super jump with a careful, tidy technique that would make her an excellent working hunter or Pony Club allrounder. She is honest and uncomplicated to a fence and is equally bold and sensible out cross-country, where she never looks at a thing.

Sophie’s kind and willing attitude make her an ideal candidate for Pony Club, working hunter, or family use, and she has the temperament to suit a wide variety of riders. Whether you’re looking for a safe and straightforward pony to learn on, or a quality young mare to produce further, Sophie ticks every box.

She comes from excellent traditional Connemara bloodlines, by Tullaree Hawk (a son of the legendary Dexter Leam Pondi), out of a mare by Bobby Joe, with Garryhinch Finn also in her pedigree—names known for producing performance ponies with sound temperaments and quality conformation.

Sophie has no stable vices, passed a recent 5-stage vetting, and is open to re-vetting for serious buyers. Her price includes delivery to your yard anywhere in the UK, and if she’s not the perfect match, we offer an exchange policy for peace of mind.

Take a look at her video to see just how lovely and genuine Sophie is. For more information, feel free to call 00353868077626 or email gertytynan@gmail.com. This kind and talented mare is ready to find her forever home.
