Annaghbay Ted

Description

Annaghbay Ted ("Teddy") is a performance-bred Class 1 perlino Connemara Pony stallion, foaled 1 September 2023, standing at natural covering with Michael Flanagan at Annaghbay Farm, Bohola, Co. Mayo — the same yard that stands Cahir Knight ("Bobby"). 148cm with 8 inches of bone. Michael describes Teddy as performance bred on both sides: by Gwennic de Goariva, the international dun stallion standing at Tullaghansleek Stud with the Carey family, and carrying the Grade A showjumping stallion Kilmullen Fionn on the dam side. Their records are set out under Performance below, each attributed to its source. Colour tested: carries the double cream gene, with no grey present. In Michael’s words, "he is bred to perform and to produce full golden duns with full black points with performance abilities." Classified Class 1 by the Connemara Pony Breeders’ Society in spring 2026. UELN 372004000126628.

Performance

Teddy is a young stallion (foaled 2023) and no competition record of his own is claimed here. What follows is the record of the two performance stallions in his pedigree, each attributed to its source. Sire — Gwennic de Goariva: per the summary Michael Flanagan supplied (an AI-search overview, not yet cross-checked against a studbook or results database) — Grand Prix level in France, and repeatedly among the leading sires at HOYS (Horse of the Year Show). Breeders are encouraged to verify directly with Tullaghansleek Stud. Dam side — Kilmullen Fionn, per his own stud advertisement: a Grade A showjumper with 540 SJAI points, awarded silver disc status by BSJA. Before competing in the UK he produced stock in Ireland from seven registered mares, including Monaghstown Pat (Class 1 stallion), Turlough Star (Class 1 stallion), Quantuam O.T. (RDS winner 2008 and 2009) and Bracken Fionn (performance pony in Sweden), and he sired the highest-priced yearling at the Cavan Connemara Sale, February 2010. He is a full brother to Iratu Varagnac, a top eventing pony who competed internationally for France and Ireland, and to Herr Varagnac, a successful working hunter pony in the UK.
