CALLOWFEENISH P.J shines on the international stage – now offered for sale via an online timed auction on MartEye at Connemara Pony Sales Clifden.
CALLOWFEENISH P.J, a 2013 Connemara gelding, continues to make his mark in international show jumping. Bred from Precious Otto and Palermo (by Tanatallon Bobby), the talented grey gelding has proven himself as a consistent and competitive presence on the FEI Youth circuit.
Under the saddle of Italian rider Giorgio Marini, CALLOWFEENISH P.J has represented Italy at some of the most prestigious youth competitions in Europe. His 2025 campaign has featured appearances at Nations Cup stages in Compiègne, Busto Arsizio, and Zuidwolde, as well as a strong showing at the Pony European Championships in Le Mans and the CSIO Youth Finals in Lier where he won a gold medal with team Italy in the Challenge Cup.
In addition to his 2025 performances, CALLOWFEENISH P.J has already demonstrated his ability to deliver results at the international level, including a top-ten finish in the International Pony 1.25 m class at Valkenswaard in 2024.
For the first time in history, the renowned Connemara Pony Sales in Clifden will host an online timed auction, and CALLOWFEENISH P.J will be the pony offered. The auction will run from Friday, October 10th through Monday, October 13th, marking a new chapter for the auction house as it embraces a digital platform to reach an international audience.
What is even more unique about this auction is that CALLOWFEENISH P.J was bought as a five year old in the Connemara Pony Sales in October 2018 and now the auction house has been entrusted in offering him for sale again.
