About Poseidon
Poseidon was an extraordinary pony with a fabulous temper. He was easy to ride and he loved to perform in the different kinds of shows. He loved children, music and to show of when people looked at him. One of the best jugdes in Denmark once wrote: "When Poseidon trots through the arena, no other New Forest pony in Denmark can follow him".
