Up-and-coming native pony producer Vicki Casey had her own Connemara stallion Frederiksminde Volcano right on song to win over sticks and clinch the NPS/Supreme Products Supreme M&M working hunter pony accolade at the 2021 Royal International Horse Show.
The final reckoning was a wonderful display of the native breeds, each combination producing outstanding gallops to ensure they were in contention for the top title. But it was Vicki and her 143cm winner who stole the hearts of the judges.
The 10-year-old, by Lissroe Hurricane, has already proved himself on the flat, winning at HOYS in 2019. This was his first major worker victory, as it was Vicki.
