My own Connemara pony Magoo:

Magoo is a bay Connemara gelding. He is aged 11 and is 15 hands in height.  His registered name also know as show name is Jim Delaney. His sire is the bay 14.2 hand stallion Westside Mirah. He has a special place in our yard as he is home bred. His mother is also still in our yard and is also ridden by me. Magoo has been a pleasure to work with since day one as he has a quite but quirky temperament. He has a cheeky face with a little white spot on it know as a star. He is mainly used as a jumping pony mainly competing in working hunter classes and Connemara performance classes during the summer and then during the winter months jumps on our school show jumping team. He has scope to burn and would jump all day if he had his way! To date Magoo is jumping tracks of 1 meter 10 centimetres and at home is show the ability to go higher. He has many titles and wins to his name. He competed in the Royal Dublin Horse show this year for the first year and taking home fourth place in the 153 working hunter class section A. This year he was also performance champion at the national championship show, he was also novice working hunter champion at Wicklow area IPS Summer show and second place overall novice 153 working hunter. He is a great pony and has been in our yard for 11 years and hopefully many more!
