We just purchased another pony (of my in laws breeding) on Saturday. I dropped off my coming 5 year old pony to an indoor arena about 10 mins from my farm to continue with his training through the winter, and then went to go and look at a 2 year old for training/sales project.
I just wanted to make sure he was a large and he measured just under 14h so should finish around 14.1h or so. Both parents are 14h. I rode his dam once and she was lovely. He has shown a bit on the line as a yearling so has been to shows already. My plan is to do the Cup Pony classes at the Royal as a 3 year old (one class is a line class and the other is a w/t/c class but you have to qualify first by attending 2 qualifying shows in the fall). He will be registered as a Canadian Sport Pony (he is 3/4 BRP and 1/4 Section B Welsh).
So welcome Manny to our farm! He is starting to settle in and is trying to make some friends (he’s out with another 2 year old, a 15 year old and my 28 year old retired pony). I won’t do too much with him all winter (just to come in and out every day) and will start him in the spring when our Ontario weather starts to get better!
Last 2 pictures are of dam and sire
