Poppy has had an absolutely fantastic start to life being produced slowly on a quiet yard with lots of hacking alongside her training.
She is a chunky build with 3 good paces and a real presence in any arena. She works nicely over a soft, swinging back and knows all her lateral work and has a half pass each way, easy leg yields and knows her shoulder in.
Poppy’s sire, Carraig Donovan has rare bloodlines going back to Parnell, Night Nurse and Ben Purple. He was highest placed pure bred stallion in the performance class at the Irish Draught bred show 2024 and was also the overall ridden stallion champion at the bred show, gaining the most points for his performance over the weekend.
He has a super jump, jumping upto 1m20 as well as being a fantastic allrounder taking part in dressage, hunting, and beach rides. His fantastic temperament and versality has very much ben passed down to Poppy who is affectionate and incredibly sweet in the stable and loves her hacking as well as her schooling.
We also think she has the potential to make a super eventer too.
Poppy is only for sale as her owner brought her as a young horse and she has grown far past the height she was supposed to and has now purchased a pony that is more height-suitable for them hence the sale.
