I’d be happy to have lot 15 in my field, really like the look of him (and I’m usually a mare person!)
I know i could google it, but it’s easier to ask here… what’s the difference between all the different sections?

At the sales normally Section 1 generally is for youngstock, Section 2 for older registered ponies. As there aren't many older ones I assume they have just merged the registered ponies into one.

Fidleywood Falconer is only a young stallion who first ran out in 2018. Just 50 progeny at present, so oldest stock by him is 2. He ran near my area.

Anyone wanting information please do contact the seller. Or I am happy to have chat about these fab ponies. ?

Just in case those of you who like lot 27 haven't noticed, he is advertised as 14.3hh. Peregrine Falcon, please correct me, but isn't this over height for a NF?

Yes, there are a few ponies listed with incorrect heights too, but 14.2-148cm is max height.

Unfortunately over-height ponies have to go on the x-register and wouldn't be able to be shown in registered M&M classes.

I wonder if that is a typo as he was advertised as 14.1 with shoes on on horsequest. Being overheight will have an impact on the value.

I wonder if the typo meant to be 13.3 instead of 14.3.

Mine who is 14.1 in shoes is 13.3 without.

If it is a typo they need to try and get it corrected as being overheight would impact on the price they get at auction.

For those interested in lot 27, I have seen elsewhere that seller has confirmed he is 14.1hh.
