Apollo, a 8-year-old bay Argentine Polo Pony gelding

1 / 2

About this horse

Apollo has played four Wellington seasons in a 16-goal string and has never missed a chukker for soundness. He is quick off the line, stops square off either rein, and is honest in a ride-off against bigger horses. He is handy enough for a strong amateur but has enough gas for a professional to play him in the fourth. Stands for the farrier, loads alone, lives out in a paddock when he is not in work.

Performance history

Played 16-goal at Wellington, 2023 through 2026
Regularly played in the third and fourth chukkers by a 5-goal professional
