GERRANMO

2012 Connemara gelding, standing approx 14h.

Gerry is relatively low mileage due to previously being kept back as a breeding stallion with lots of smart offspring.

That being said Gerry is a pleasure to have both on the yard and to ride. His flatwork is relatively green but he has 3 nice paces and is keen to learn.
He very easy to a fence and enjoys jumping, he’s both brave & careful with SJ & arena eventing type fences. Currently schooling around a course of 80/85 with plenty of scope to progress on.

To hack Gerry is superb, he hacks alone & in company. Great with all heavy traffic, machinery, busy roads, livestock & open spaces. He doesn’t light up in company and is always an on the buckle ride. I have led my daughter from Gerry & he has also had very small jockeys on the lead rein.

He’s great in all respects on the ground, turns out with & next to mares and stabled next to mares too, he shows absolutely no sign of the fact he was entire until fairly recently. He is barefoot with good feet and is well behaved for the farrier, vet & to be clipped. He loads & travels great too. He is around & very used to young children and dogs on the yard, with the kids helping to groom & lead him about.

Despite the fact he has a superb temperament, he is not a novice ride due to the fact he will suss a nervous or less competent rider and use it to get out of work. He isn’t sharp, doesn’t buck, rear or bolt, but he can be sensitive to the aids and will not tolerate pony club kicks. He can have a week off and be no different to ride, for a competent rider he will be both an ease and a pleasure.

He has all the qualities to make a superb working hunter pony, he is correctly and well put together, with nice movement and a careful brave jump.
