About this ebook
The heart-warming true story of an Irish Connemara pony. Winner at the EQUUS Film Festival AWARDS. Written by the #1 award-winning movie director of Listening to the Horse, Elaine Heney.
At the horse sales in Kilkenny, Elaine Heney bought a green five year old gelding. As she unloaded him in Tipperary that evening she realised she had a restart on her hands. This is the story of how they progressed since then. Early reviews have described this book as "beautifully written, fantastic and totally addictive reading. Elaine captures you and drags you into her world. Ozzie was featured in the award-winning 'Listening to the Horse' movie.
"Small, wide-eyed and nervous the grey walked anxiously around the sales ring, his front feet moving apprehensively through the fresh yellow sawdust. Bidding started quickly, with the English lady leading the buyers triumphantly from the ring side. 500 quickly turned into 1000 and at 1500 he was officially on the market and would be sold. We quietly put in the next offer to the auctioneer's delight and after two or three more minutes of bidding, it was only us and the English dealer left as the price climbed higher. My heart was in my mouth. `Going once, any more bids now'? The auctioneer's question rang around the room, crackling on the loudspeaker outside. I clenched my fists tightly and stopped breathing completely. `Going twice, this is your last chance now......' the auctioneer paused, hammer raised, as I wished and hoped and prayed simultaneously. The auctioneer took a deep breath, as he glanced around the room and then shouted `Sold!' exuberantly, as the hammer flew through the air and crashed down loudly onto the dark mahogany counter........
