Sillogue Connemara Ponies - Co. Louth, Ireland
Sillogue Connemara Pony Stud. The main focus and indeed our passion is breeding Connemara ponies for performance in disciplines such as eventing, cross-country and showjumping.
Without question the demand has been and will be for high quality ponies with the potential to deliver performance. Simply put ponies in the marketplace with limited potential, will realise limited prices concurrent with today’s typical average. On the other hand ponies who have correct confirmation, temperament and soundness, along with equally important real athleticism and scope do and will continue to command a price premium.
Depending on your location frozen & chilled semen is available for Sillogue Maximus
Bred by Eamonn Briscoe at Sillogue Connemara Pony Stud, and fully approved by the IHB & CPBS (Class 1), the stallion Sillogue Maximus is available to breeders focused on producing high performance progeny as demanded increasingly by the modern market- place. Sillogue Maximus will continue to accumulate SJAI points this year with Kerry Taggart aboard.

To be honoured along with the owners of Ballyowen Maybelle Molly at the annual Clifden Connemara Pony Show was the icing on the cake.
