He's here! (and show me your glow ups)

[FlyingCircus]

Super pleased with my new boy. Saw him advertised, asked to go see him same day and offered to buy him. 5 days later and he's home

He's just a baby (rising 5), so has plenty of filling out to do. I'd love to see yours at 4/5 and then older!

Gratuitous video of him!

He looks gorgeous and looks like he will be a nice floaty ride

Congrats

I was going to say "floaty" too! He's gorgeous. Interesting that he likes to trot, I was just videoing my Connemara colt in the field earlier and he prefers a little rocking horse canter. Despite owning one I know very little about Connemaras so I've no idea what's typical for the breed in that respect.

I've yet to see him canter So here's hoping it doesn't look like a camel..!!

The grey in the green rug behind him is also a full Connemara. His go to is usually canter! He has never had a particularly floaty trot, he's far more workman like.

He's gorgeous!

Hes far too pretty to be a Murphy!

With that trot I very much doubt he'll have the canter of a camel

I think Murphy is a great name! (Mine is called Davey. The farrier and the horse trainer both teased me about it.)

 

[FlyingCircus]

His show name has Cillian in it, so I assume it's after Cillian Murphy. Cillian Murphy is one of my favourite actors! Was destiny

Am still abit surprised at how he appeared. As per my other post, I have a couple of irons in the fire in Ireland and Hull..! So when his advert popped up on a site I rarely look it, it was a bit of luck

Congratulations! I love the name Murphy too, we used to have a bay Connie with the same name and he was a cracker.

He's beautiful! Very excited to see what you get up to with him

He's made me want a Connemara now! (Do they always have such lush tails I wonder ) And for all he's so floaty and pretty he looks to have plenty of bone. Also love the name Murphy

 

[TheOldTrout]

He's lovely!

 

[Errin Paddywack]

Very nice indeed.

 

[FlyingCircus]

Everyone needs a Connemara in their life Or several..!

He's settling in really well. Is a fun little character.

 

[Michen]

beautiful!!!!

 

[dreamcometrue]

Congratulations he’s lovely x

 

[FlyingCircus]

Thanks all

Does anyone have any bridle recommendations? Not sure what would suit him best! Do I go with a thicker hunter-y noseband?

I think he’d like a nice new Henry James bridle
