Polish Shetland Pony Championship

Plamp Eitan

1st in stallions/geldings class mini + standard

 

On Saturday September 21st the 19th Ognopolska Shetland Pony Show took place in the Riding Club Wolica. This show is the biggest shetland pony events event in Poland. Stallion licencing takes place here too. In Poland the stallion licencing occurs once a year. This was our second time attending a pony show in Wolica.

 

The judge Mrs Linzi Cave was amazing. The ponies were in and out of the ring. Jerzy Dmochowski and his team prepared a wonderful event again.👏

 

This year was a little different from last year, the stallions took the agility course twice. Once for the licencing and once for the show.

 

Sky gained the Polish breeding licence with 45 points.

 

The structure of the Polish championship is a little different from the Czech one. There are fewer classes but each class has more ponies. Shetland ponies are separated into Foals, Youths (1-3 year old), Mares, and Stallions & Geldings. Standard Shetlands and Mini Shetlands are shown side by side in all classes. At the end of the show all ponies who won first place in their class compete for the title of BIS - Best In Show. This year this honour went to mare Imno Xamira. Congratulations!
