Arkle boasts some of the best and most proven Connemara lines:
Western Boy × Moyvoon Star × Ashfield Sparrow
These bloodlines are renowned for producing ponies with talent, temperament, and versatility across sport, showing, and leisure.
🤎 Temperament & Rideability
Arkle is the ideal mother–daughter share—kind, sensible, and easy-going, yet capable of carrying taller or more experienced riders with ease. Currently ridden by a teenager, he is straightforward, safe, and enjoys his work.
He has three correct, straight paces, a soft snaffle mouth and shows all the potential to become a competitive allrounder or riding club horse. With his calm, genuine nature, he would equally suit a riding school looking for a reliable, quality horse.

He is eager to please, learns quickly, and has a willing attitude—he’s the type that never wants to put a foot wrong. He is honest to jump over coloured poles and cross country, and he’s showing great potential, currently jumping over 90cm with plenty more to give in the future.
🌿 Manners & Handling
Arkle is a delight to have on the yard:
• Easy to hack, alone or in company
