5 year old 14.2hh aprox bay Connemara gelding Swankie Frankie is by Dark Stranger grade B show jumper our of international JA show jumper Rathcoona Rosie. Swankie Frankie is what I would describe as your ultimate competition pony both his parents have competed to a very high level Rosie was on the Irish pony Show jumping team and was second in the 1.30m Grand prix in Switzerland as well as numerous other successes.
