Rosie (Kilbride Rosemary) has had a successful flat showing career qualifying for the Royal International every year we have attempted. Regularly placed in hoys qualifiers, I would love her to have a more varied life, looking for a showing, dressage, working hunter, pony club eventing home.
She is 10 very full up 14hh LHC, traditional leg at each corner type takes up your leg nicely.
She is the kindest mare to handle, great to shoe box and clip, great in traffic, up to date with vaccinations no vices.
Incredibly sad sale.

Just under 15.2hh | Dun | Exceptional Irish Bloodlines | UK Delivery Included
Meet Arkle, a rising 5-year-old purebred Connemara gelding who truly ticks every box. Standing just a fraction under 15.2hh (with more growing to do), Arkle is a beautifully put-together horse with good bone, a pretty head, and correct conformation. His striking dun colouring and traditional Irish presence make him a real eye-catcher in any yard.
?? Top-Class Pedigree
Arkle boasts some of the best and most proven Connemara lines:
Western Boy × Moyvoon Star × Ashfield Sparrow
These bloodlines are renowned for producing ponies with talent, temperament, and versatility across sport, showing, and leisure.
?? Temperament & Rideability
Arkle is the ideal mother–daughter share—kind, sensible, and easy-going, yet capable of carrying taller or more experienced riders with ease. Currently ridden by a teenager, he is straightforward, safe, and enjoys his work.
He has three correct, straight paces, a soft snaffle mouth and shows all the potential to become a competitive allrounder or riding club horse. With his calm, genuine nature, he would equally suit a riding school looking for a reliable, quality horse.
?? Talent & Versatility
A true allrounder, Arkle is well-suited for:
• Working Hunter
• Showjumping
• Eventing
• Dressage
• Riding Club / Pony Club
• Hacking & Leisure
He is eager to please, learns quickly, and has a willing attitude—he’s the type that never wants to put a foot wrong. He is honest to jump over coloured poles and cross country, and he’s showing great potential, currently jumping over 90cm with plenty more to give in the future.
?? Manners & Handling
Arkle is a delight to have on the yard:
• Easy to hack, alone or in company
• Excellent in all types of traffic
• Good to shoe, box, catch, and ride
• No stable vices
• Open to any vetting
He truly is a lovely, genuine oversized Connemara who should suit almost any kind of rider, from competitive juniors to adults seeking a dependable and enjoyable partner.
