Rocky is a striking green book Connemara by Mystical Bobby Lane. Rocky has been with me since a two year old so full history is known. I broke Rocky in myself as a 3yo and he has been very easy since day one.
Rocky is a very balanced pony and seems to find everything very easy. He is becoming established in his flat work and showing nice paces in walk, trot and canter. He has a lovely soft mouth and only ever requires a snaffle.
Rocky has been to a training show and popped around a course of 60/70cm with ease. He has completed a 70 cm Hunter trial finishing fifth, and a busy fun ride where he also behaved impeccably, unfazed by other horses charging past etc.
Rocky has been picked up and put down a lot, he has had many breaks along the way and a long winter holiday. Rocky hacks out alone and in company. He is better in company as can be spooky alone, although when he is in more consistent work, he is much less so. Hacking is very daunting around here, so the fact he hacks alone with his age and experience is remarkable.
Good to do in all ways. Currently barefoot although he has had front shoes on in the past, but his feet are so good I don’t feel like he needs them at this moment in time.
Due to age and stage in training , Rocky would suit a competent child with guidance from a parent/trainer or a small, experienced adult. No novices please, as although he is very sane, he is still very much in the early stages of training.
This is a sad sale, but he was bought originally to sell on, so he really needs to go and find his person.
Serious enquiries only please, and no time wasters. Open to offers to find this Pony the perfect home.
