Midland Connemara Pony Breeders Show

The Irish Horse Board were proud sponsors of the Future Performance Class for Connemara Ponies held at the Midland Connemara Pony Breeders 4th Annual Championship Show, which took place at Annaharvey Farm, Tullamore, Co. Offaly on Sunday 29th July.

This class is an excellent showcase for the Connemara Pony, displaying their ability in the dressage arena and over a course of fences. The ponies were also judged on confirmation. €2050 was on offer for the class including an award of €250 for the breeder of the winning pony.

Regrettably, due to a clerical error with the scoring on the day it has emerged that, by very close points, ponies orginally placed 1st and 2nd, should have been in reverse position. please find corrected out come of the class below.

Corrected results also effect the €250 prize awarded to the breeder of the winning pony.

The Midland Connemara Group would like to apologise sincerely for any inconvenience and disappointment caused..
