Poseidon, our 3 year old 2021 GRP gelding is a super correct and very fancy dark bay German Riding Pony gelding by Popeye and out of our own Die Chanel, imported GRP mare by Der Feine Lord AT X Chantre B born February 11, 2021. Smart, eager to please, well handled since birth, Poseidon is well mannered and a delight to be around. He loves attention and willingly leads and ties. He loves his grooming sessions. He has been exposed to trailers, bathing, fly spray, and handles well for the farrier and vet. This is going to be a super nice pony!

Popeye is the only pony stallion (and one of only a handful of all stallions) that has been awarded 5 Stars with ISR/OldenburgNA.
