Waterford's
Orion
(5/30/00,
out of Faline, unregistered Connemara) dun colt, Owned by The
Rich Family of Davie Co. NC I am appending a recent photo of Orion, at the age of 2+ years. He spent June at school with Kathy Hines at Cornerstone Farm and is well started under saddle. During that month he was ridden every day, in the ring and on trails, and has started lunging. He has been briefly cantered and has a very balanced canter. His disposition is wonderful--very friendly--and he accepts direction and discipline without resentment. We had him gelded early this spring... My goal is eventually to sell him... He would make a great project for a child with some experience and supervision. I visited with Sarah Trompeter last month to see her new foal out of our mare, Faline (Orion's dam), and I sold Faline to her. Her new foal looks very much like Orion, and I expect that she will raise more Ford-Faline babies. Nola Rich (7/02) |
Boo (2001, out of Cherry, TB), 16.2h Connemara cross gelding, Boo is a sound, quiet, naturally balanced horse with nice gaits. He is a steady type and is easy to put in a frame and keep together. He is easy and quiet at shows, fabulous in warm-up, doesn't change in the ring. He excels on the flat and really seems to enjoy it. |
Waterford Zena (2002, out of a Welsh mare) Proven Broodmare! Zena has great conformation. She is a beautiful mover and jumper. She was lightly ridden before becoming a broodmare.

Waterford's Scarlet (2002) HBM 2025 XLIV, 14.2h Connemara cross, dun mare |
Waterford's April Fool's (4/1/02, out of Surreal Sue, TB) HBM 897 XLII, 15.0h Connemara cross, Bred by Sarah Trompeter (VA); owned by Myra Braswell (VA)
April is an honest horse with great potential. Her experience has primarily been on trails, where she is glad to lead or follow. She would enjoy, and go far with, consistent attention from an intermediate child or adult. April has the wonderful Connemara personality, and her Connemara features are ever-so-slightly refined by her thoroughbred breeding. She placed 2nd in the Half-bred class at the 2011 Region III Show. She is an easy-keeper, stands for the farrier, and loads easily. Current on shots and Coggins. Her owner is working full-time and going to graduate school, and would love to see April in consistent work. |

bright bay with star and back sock

Waterford's Blaze (2003, out of Welsh mare) HBG 1882 XLIV 13.0h Connemara/Welsh/pinto gelding Blaze has been a wonderful pony for me...he has been to numerous hunter shows and brought home a reserve champion ribbon at his first show. Blaze is so eager to please and very smart. He walk, trot, canters, and jumps and is doing very well with flying changes. He is currently in training for foxhunting and I will be using him as a hunt horse this winter because he's so quiet and sensible. He is fit for any disipline or lifestyle. |
Waterford's Windy (5/13/03, out of Surreal Sue (TB)) 15.1h brown Connemara/TB mare) Owned by Lora Howard, Clove Connemaras, Golden, CO (2012) |
Waterford's Zoom- Zoom (2003 out of Fresca) 13.3h bay Connemara/Welsh/TB mare. "Zoomy"
has big, sweeping, flat-kneed gaits. Her large step makes the
lines easily, and her jump is always correct with a particularly
sharp front end. She has auto-changes, jumps everything, and
is also a great Equitation partner with rock steady gaits that
make for an ultra comfortable ride to show off her rider. |
Waterford's Crescent Moon (2006) ACPS HBG2001 XLV, 14.3h dun purebred gelding. "Doodle" is a big-boned guy with the unique Connemara characteristics. We are just starting him under saddle and we are currently walking and trotting around in his field, he is very sensible. Doodle is one of my favorites... He is an absolute hoot to be around, a really fun guy!! 2017 - owned by Harold Holborrow (MA) |
