Sire of foal is Josie Jump who is a true superstar of a Grade 1 Connemara stallion. He has won in multi disciplines at top level both in Ireland and in the U.K. Photo included in this advert.

He has a superb temperament that is passed on to his offspring and he is loved by all. See the link below for more information. Other videos can be found via a Google search.

https://sportpony.org.uk/josie-jump.shtml

This dark chestnut colt foal is sure to make a fantastic all rounder competition large sports pony / small sports horse. He already shows incredible movement and stability. He has a bold engaging and playful character. He has already seen some machinery and is used to lots of everyday yard and household sights and sounds, dogs and different people. After finally losing his lighter coloured newborn baby coat he has revealed his real colour, a beautiful darker chestnut coloured coat.

He has been microchipped and is passported and registered with Sports Pony Studbook Society and British Connemara Pony Society. He will be eligible for British Connemara classes.

The mare is clean limbed, has nice movement and has no health issues! She is barefoot and has good hooves which are regularly professionally trimmed. She is up to date with all her vaccines, her teeth are professionally rasped regularly and is up to date with a worming and testing programme.

She has produced 4 previous foals plus this year's Connemara cross TB foal. The previous two were born within the last 4 years and are big boned strong Thoroughbreds with beautiful temperaments.

Photos include this mare with her current foal. The last photo is of the stallion Josie Jump.

Please see the attached videos. Click on the "videos" link beneath this description.

If you are interested in producing great sports pony or horse foals this very well bred national hunt mare is the one for you.

She is an excellent broodmare. She takes first time both naturally and via AI, foals easily and is a good mum.

She has a sweet nature, good to handle and travels really well but is not to be ridden. She is better to be a mum!

She can happily be paddocked with mares and geldings. Must be kept with other horses.

Please only genuinely experienced owners for this mare and foal, that can provide evidence of a truly 5 star loving home.

£7,500 for both but open to suggestions. I may consider loaning my mare and selling my foal separately to the right person.

Please message me through this website or call me with any questions

This is Ace. And he is ace in many ways which is why I bought him in July from Solway Racehorses straight from the field after turnout post training at 2 ( poor baby!) . Some photos from when in training . He was basically not raced as ‘too slow, didn’t grow’. Now he is growing!!!

I bought to retrain and sell on , however like all good plans, it all went belly up as I was in a horrible accident a few weeks later which smashed my pelvis!! Prior to then I had done some groundwork with Ace as he was as green as grass, even not tying up or lifting feet!! However he ws quick and keen to learn. I also hacked him out many times and he was good as gold. Looked at things but like a little boy in a toy shop kind of way!! Too cute!!

I have managed to get back on now and again have hacked him out but I have lost my nerve with him on the ground . My accident was two mares attacked him as I led him through their field ( only access to yard !) . A big brood mare kicked me and I was very ill after due to blood loss etc. I have PTSD and can’t manage to finish the job I started with Ace. He needs to go to someone who can give him one to one as he is now jealous of the time I spend with my own sweet gentle mare who I trust 100%.

Ace is a little but cheeky when he doesn’t get his own way but partly due to being bored . He thrives on work and eager to please, but only 3 last March so immature when it comes to discipline, I think he has been hit previously as was scared of bridle especially jangling of the bit. I ride him in plastic bit or leather one and he a lot better .

He is compact little horse and will be a total pocket rocket around a course of jumps He is really bright eyed chappie . I think he will grow a bit yet too. He has great feet ( cold shod in front) , teeth done in July. Vaccs up to date.

Am selling at a low price as I can’t afford to keep 2 horses through the winter as still not able to work due to injury. I also found out this week I need to have surgery so REALLY can’t aford full livery for 2. He can come with rugs and can deliver for costs . Travels in trailer alone or prefers his ‘sister’ with him . Any foibles due to his inexperience and being field ornament since Aug but lots potential . Needs confident educated owner, maybe practicing natural horsemanship over whips as he deserves kind person and doesn’t react well to Mr Shouty!!

Sire Dabirsim and Dam is Crowning Glory.

Olive retired from racing in 2023 sound and has been allowed down time. She has been doing lots of hacking, lunging and long reigning with her owner and she is now on sales livery to continue to be produced and to find her next long term home.

Olive is a very quiet mare and more woah than go. She moves very nicely and has started to work in an outline in all 3 paces in the arena. We have taught her to jump and she is proving to be a natural over a fence and very much enjoys it.

She hacks alone and in company and has seen plenty of traffic. She is good in open spaces and she is proving to be a very honest and genuine mare with a lovely temperament.

Olive has great conformation and is very pretty to look at. She would be an ideal ROR horse for someone wanting to produce a quality TB in the ROR competitions.

She is green. She does need further training and miles on the clock. However she has had a great start to her life outside of racing and she would suit many types of riders if they are happy to put a bit of work in. She will be a fantastic riding club horse and give someone a lot of fun along the way. She is good to clip, catch, load, shoe. No vices, no lumps or bumps.
