Height: 15.1½hh
Colour:
Brown
Sire:
Smithfields Magistrate
Dam: Garden Vale
Stylish Lass
Because of his height Indy (his stable name due to his being born on
Indy car race day) was exhibited as an Australian National
Saddle Horse rather than as a Riding
Pony. His progeny are, however, eligible, and, at that time, he provided a rare
opportunity for breeders wishing to produce stock in the 14 - 16hh
range. His conformation,
quality and movement made him a prolific show ring winner. He produed
hacks with
the movement and temperament of a pony similar to the English
hacks that were being bred using up to size Riding Ponies.
Garden Vales Stylish Image's final foal
before being gelded was a Chestnut Gelding Smithfields Final Image
out of Malibu Park Stella.
