Welcome to our website! We are family Mattila and pony trotting is our hobby. All started year 2000 when we bought our first pony, Shetland Electric “Hessu” Herman. At that moment we were already looking for a Gotland Russ but there were no races for them in Finland. But now the things are changing and we have mainly Russ-ponies.
In May we got two stallion foals; for Vera & Ljungens Razzia. Later on the summer will Hults Varona and Bennita get their ones.
We have bought some Gotland Russ mares from Sweden, first for racing but they have been selected on their pedigree basis. So our aim is to breed good quality, Finnish born trotting ponies. And the circle has closed; mother Erja started her horse hobby with Russ ponies about 30 years ago.
We hope you enjoy our website – if you any further questions or comments, please send us e-mail.
By the way – our stable name Poninhäntä means in English Stable Ponytail.
-greetings, folks of the stable and ponies
