    4. ‘Wise head on young shoulders’

    Height: 14.2hh

    Age: four

    Gender: gelding

    Selling points: “This registered Connemara is by Grade A showjumping stallion and grand prix winner Gwennic de Goariva. ‘Ralphie’ has the most adorable temperament, a wise head on young shoulders and just wants to be your best friend. He was imported from Ireland and has been backed and brought on by us. He has started his education, been out showjump schooling and competed at his first BS pony show last weekend. Ralphie is a very quick learner, he has no vices and is easy to do in all ways. He hacks out very well, goes first or last and is excellent in traffic. He has a very good, effortless jump and would suit someone looking for a pony showjumper. He would also be a great potential event pony as he is well balanced on the flat and brave to jump.”
