Description

Large Show Hunter Pony, 14hh (life measured), Chestnut Gelding, 13 years old.
Sire: Mirinda Field of Dreams, Dam: Mirinda Dresden. Registered SHC, EA, Riding Pony, Part Welsh, Australian Saddle Pony.
After owning our beautiful Spanner for almost 4 years it has come time for him to find a new home. Spanner needs little introduction to the show ring, proving himself as a competitive and very successful Large Show Hunter Pony.
Spanner always stands out in any line up, with head turning looks, movement, and quality. Having the most kind lovable nature makes Spanner a pleasure to own, produce, and show. He is a true best friend. Spanner is very well educated and easy to float, stable, clip, shoe, etc., with no vices or nastiness.
Spanner has proven to be a great rider class mount taking myself to place Top 10 in the rider 17 years and under 21 years at the 2022 Grand Nationals, as well as placing 1st in the novice and 2nd in the open lady rider 17 years and under 21 years at the 2022 Sydney Royal Show.
A handful of Spanner highlights over the years include:
-Barastoc 2018- Champion Large Show Hunter Pony and Reserve Champion Child’s Large Show Hunter Pony
-Southern Cross 2018- Champion Child’s Large Show Hunter Pony
-Melbourne Royal Show 2018/19- Champion Large Show Hunter Pony
-SHCV HOTY 2019- Champion Large Show Hunter Pony
-SHC Pacific Coast 2022- Reserve Champion Large Show Hunter Pony
Spanner can be forward moving and for this reason would suit a competent teen or small adult rider to continue his success in the show ring. Qualified for All Royals 2024 and Canberra and Sydney Royals 2025.
This is an extremely difficult sale but unfortunately, we can’t keep them all. Spanner will only be sold to the best of homes. Genuine enquiries only.
