Meet Colleen – A 14.2hh, 4-Year-Old Class 1 Cremello Connemara Mare
A rare colour, a golden temperament, and talent to match.
Colleen is a truly striking young Connemara mare who stands at 14.2hh and is four years old. With her beautiful cremello coat, kind expression, and elegant way of going, she turns heads wherever she goes. She is a fully inspected Class 1 mare with an outstanding pedigree and is already showing all the attributes of a top-class all-rounder. Colleen is that perfect blend of presence, personality, and potential.
She is wonderfully easy to have on the yard and a delight in every way. Her temperament is second to none – she’s calm, gentle, and always willing. She is good to catch, clip, shoe, load, and travel, and she is confident and steady in traffic. Colleen hacks out happily both alone and in company and is consistently polite, relaxed, and uncomplicated in all settings.
Under saddle, Colleen is professionally and correctly produced. She is riding beautifully on the flat with three rhythmical, balanced paces and a particularly lovely uphill canter. She works softly into a contact, is responsive to the leg, and is always light and straightforward. Her ride is comfortable, correct, and enjoyable, making her a lovely option for a confident teenager or a small adult looking to develop a quality pony with talent and manners.
She has also started jumping and has been introduced to cross-country schooling, where she continues to show her trademark attitude – brave, honest, and eager to please. She approaches every new question with calm curiosity, and nothing seems to rattle her. Whether it’s in the school, out hacking, or over fences, Colleen gives her rider confidence and a lovely feel.
Colleen’s pedigree is filled with performance bloodlines. She is by the renowned Class 1 stallion Lissroe Charlie, known for producing athletic, rideable, and high-quality ponies. Her dam is by Woodfield Sammy, another proven performance sire, and her maternal grandsire is none other than Westside Mirah, one of the most respected and influential names in Connemara breeding.
This is a pony with all the qualities you could hope for in a future competition partner or all-round riding pony. She has beauty, brains, and a temperament that makes her truly stand out.
Colleen has no stable vices, is open to any vetting, and comes with UK delivery included. An exchange can also be offered if she’s not the perfect match.

Rules for Showing
Prospective purchasers of Connemara ponies should be aware that under BCPS Rules for showing – ‘No Connemara exceeding 148cm may be shown or take part in any competition restricted to Connemara or Registered Mountain and Moorland ponies within the jurisdiction of the BCPS.’
‘Where it is reported to the Society that this may have occurred then the Society may require the animal to be measured or re-measured in accordance with the Rules of the Joint Measurement Scheme -
The penalty for the contravention of the above Rule may be cancellation of the registration of the animal concerned
They should also realise that both the Irish and British Connemara Societies register ponies under a classification system. Briefly, all foals are registered as Class 3. Adult ponies (2 years and over) – Stallions and Mares – are registered in Class 1 if they pass a visual and Veterinary inspection, and as Class 2 if they fail the visual, but pass the Vet, or are over or under height, or blue eyed creams, and as Class 3 if they fail the Vet or have not been inspected
The progeny of Class 3 ponies remain in Class 3 and cannot be upgraded
It is suggested that purchasers should ask to see the pony’s passport to verify the Class of the pony, and should contact the BCPS Secretary if they have any queries on the details given below
