He's gorgeous, and confirmationally very mature for a comming-3.
The first thing I noticed is that he is over at the knee. His shoulder angles are very nice, but his hip angles look a little open. This may develop more correctly as he gets older. He has a beautiful head. I would personally like to see a little more angle through his hocks. He has a nice short back and a pretty topline. His neck is still a little long for his body, but that's just a baby thing. I'm guessing he will grow into it.

He has such beautiful coloring! Not a confirmation thing, but just in general.... Very pretty

Oh, he's smashing. *__* At 14.2 he's gonna be quite tall for a Connemara, but that's all I'll say conformationally; He's young/got a bunch of growing to do, and I'd probably guess something wrong. ^^;

But yeah, I think you've got a great young stallion there. ^_^ Cross him with some thoroughbreds, they make fabby, hot all-rounders! :p

he's very striking and reminds me of one of the warm bloods wehre i ride [who is FAB!]

he is over at the knee and his neck is long [but he's still growing so that might be outgrown] he's got a great pony face and overall he presents very well [he's SOOOOOO cute!!]

He's so beautiful! he reminds me of my friend's connamara pony who is the same color and stocky build. her horse is a bit smaller though. but he's amazing i agree with you that he's perfect!

I rode for a woman for a short while who had a bazillion half-feral connemara ponies. She was like, "There is no point in having a broodmare not bred; why pay her bills for no reason." I thought about bringing up the point that since they weren't actually selling any of the horses they bred they were just costing more and more money... But the ponies were cute and they had me in there to "teach them some manners" because the farrier was coming in a week.

Could you expain what "only one of 15 stallions out of a hundred given that grading this year in his age group" means? Is he one out of 15 stallions in a group of a hundred that made the cut so there are 15 stallions that made it total? Or the only stallion out of 15 to make the cut? If he is the only one out of 15 out of a hundred isn't that just 1 in a hundred? Sorry, I can't help myself, I'm a law student. ;) He looks cute enough to be 1 in a million though, so...
