The hardest part of breeding and raising foals is putting them up for sale. I have enjoyed watching them run, play, and develop into beautiful young ponies. Each time I have handled them I have felt a bond strengthen and have been amazed at how quickly they learn. Both colts are athletic and correct. I believe both will make lovely riding and/or driving ponies. Phoenix is smooth, balanced and classy. Blue Jay is elegant with a lovely reach to his stride. They were recently weaned from their mothers and are doing well on their own.

Phoenix is a handsome, correct, purebred Connemara colt that has that "look at me" attitude. He is the first one of the foals to venture out in search of adventure and loves attention. He carries many of the old Connemara bloodlines that have produced superb performance ponies. His dam's sire, Balius Rhyddspence , one of the three premium approved stallions in the American Connemara Pony Society, was a champion in eventing and dressage. His dam's dam, Gralyn's Gypsy Rover, was a petite pony who was praised by the Irish inspectors for her "pony type" and carried many young riders to blue ribbons in her many years as a show pony. Phoenix's sire, New Heart's Sundance Kid, is by Cornerstone Indelible, who is from the successful Greystone lines out of Tullymors Tiger Nellie who is from the Montully's Son lines.

We have had several Connemara people tell us that Phoenix has a lovely top line. He is an athletic, playful and powerful colt and yet very sweet.

Phoenix has a very good chance of staying pony size.  His dam is 14:1 and his sire is 13:2. His body parts are growing in proportion and he has maintained the "pony" type.  He was excellent for the farrier and is easy to lead. Phoenix is  groomed and hugged by young children and loves living with other horses and ponies.

Blue Jay is an energetic and athletic buckskin colt. His smokey blue eyes and dark pigment are both unusual and striking.  We are pleased with his correct conformation and lovely movement. Blue Jay's sire, Gunsmoke, was recently exported to Ireland. Gunsmoke was born in Ireland and was the highest scoring stallion at his inpection there. Blue Jay's dam, Elphin Chickadee, is from English, Irish, and American bloodlines. His dam's dam, Scottsway Lullaby, was imported from England and carries some of the most successful Connemara lines from the UK. His dam's sire, Maplehurst Michael MacDaire, was sired by the American stallion, Gilnocky Ard-righ MacDaire out of the Irish mare, Abbeleix Bluebird. 

After shedding his foal hair, Blue Jay now has a rich, golden, dappled buckskin coat.  As he develops we are seeing a fabulous trot and lovely round canter.

We are pleased with Blue Jay's bone. He also has good sized and well shaped hooves. We can't say for sure that he will stay pony size as his sire is 15 hands. He does appear to be a colt that will be able to compete in any discipline.

Blue Jay is a lovely mover with long and elastic strides. He looks like a natural for dressage or combined training.
