14.2hh | 6yo Registered Connemara Gelding | Class 1 Breeding | N/N
Billy is a quality Registered Connemara gelding with Class 1 breeding throughout and N/N status. An athletic, eye-catching pony with all the attributes to excel as an allrounder, Working Hunter, Riding Club horse or grassroots competition pony. He has a fantastic attitude to work and all the ability to become something very special.
Imported from Ireland, Billy was professionally backed and introduced to both showjumping and cross-country before coming to the UK. Like many genuine young horses, he takes a little time to settle into a new home, but once he has found his person his true character shines through. He is genuine, willing and incredibly rewarding to produce, and we have no doubt he will become someone’s pony of a lifetime.
Billy hacks happily alone or in company, is sensible in traffic and open spaces, and has attended arena hires where he behaved impeccably. He recently competed at his first dressage competition, scoring an impressive 72%, taking the atmosphere completely in his stride. He loads, travels and stands quietly on the lorry at shows.
He has three balanced, expressive paces, plenty of presence and covers the ground well. Clean limbed and correct, he has all the quality to progress through the levels.
Billy has confidently jumped 1m single fences at home and has proved to be exceptionally honest, bold and forgiving. Fillers, water trays and new questions dont faze him, and he’ll always try to help his rider. He heads to his first showjumping competition this weekend and we’re excited to continue building his competition record.
Please no novices. He would thrive with a confident young rider/ small adult who wants to get out and enjoy life with him. He deserves someone who matches his enthusiasm and wants to make the most of his talent and enjoy the journey together. Give him that partnership, and he’ll give you everything in return.
Good to catch, bath, shoe and handle. Loads and travels impeccably. Up to date with worming, vaccinations, dentist and farrier. Recent clean vet certificate.
Serious enquiries only. Ridden videos will be requested prior to arranging viewings to ensure the right partnership for this special pony.
