WILDWYCH CRICKET
2001 Dark Dun Mare
*Glenormiston Flurry Knox X Tower Hill's Fiona
Cricket is a second Wildwych bred pony for Avelene!  She is an extraordinary
color described as dark dun!  Her mocha color and added highlights make for a
dramatic picture.  But it is her personality that will cement your adoration!
Cricket went straight to work this fall as an ambassador for the American
Connemara Pony Society at the Equine Affaire!   Not only was she
enthusiastic about greeting visitors to the ACPS Booth but she performed
during the breed demonstration as well.  
      Cricket is a 2001 model pony.  Her background so far has been lower
level eventing and dressage.  Within a few short weeks of her arrival, we
introduced her to the bitless bridle and panelled saddles that we use for
distance riding.  When we moved her out on trail, she quickly learned to
navigate through very difficult terrain and pace herself over distances.     
      Cricket has exceptional performance conformation.  Her high point of
shoulder and set back wither influences her longer stride.  Her LS is in line
with her hip and her hocks are closer set to enable great power and impulsion.  
Her neck is balanced with her length of back and her croup is equal in slope.  
She has a beautiful face, accented by her wide set large eyes!  
      We have enjoyed sharing Cricket with others on venues such as the
Equine Affaire.  She is one of our larger personalities at Avelene!  We love to
tell people of our pony stories...but we love it more when the pony tells their
own story.  Sit quietly...she talks!
