6yo

Grey Purebred Connemara Mare

Sire: Blueberry Hills Storm Cloud

Dam: Yggdrasil Celtic Frost (by Wychwood Snowbird × Celtic Lavender)

HWSD clear by parentage

One of the last mares from the highly sought-after Wychwood Snowbird dam line in Australia and New Zealand. Dove’s dam is also a half-sister to multi-champion performer Parklands Celtic Storm.

A rare opportunity to secure an exceptionally well-bred purebred Connemara mare with all the ingredients for a serious performance career.

Dove possesses truly outstanding natural ability. Her movement is expressive, uphill and naturally balanced, with the quality to develop through the levels and the potential for FEI Pony Dressage.

Equally impressive is her scope—she is an athletic jumper with an incredible natural technique and plenty of power, seemingly equipped with built-in springs. She has all the attributes to excel in showjumping as well as in the dressage ring.

She floats well and has had several outings to lessons and competitions.

Dove is being offered for sale because she is not suitable for children to handle on the ground unsupervised, or inexperienced riders or handlers. She can be incredibly sweet, affectionate and loving; however she can also be an opinionated, dominant mare who will happily assume the leadership role if allowed.

She has been ridden by a child and has mostly been very good under saddle.

Dove undoubtedly has the bloodlines to contribute to any quality breeding program & combined with her athletic ability she offers huge potential.

Experienced homes only.
