Elphin Cronan is a 14.3 hh, grey stallion out of SP Mils Breaban. He was one of our first crop of foals, born in 1992. Cronan is Gaelic for "little dark one", as Cronan was born dark bay.
We sold Cronan as a yearling, and he stood at
stud in Maple Ridge, British Columbia until 2008. He has since moved to PEI
with his owner.

Some of his TB and warmblood cross foals are now making names for themselves as eventers and show jumpers in BC. These include Irish, the 2008 BC preliminary level champion, and 2009 BC intermediate champion; KS Priceless, a purebred out of Avenn's Diamond Dee, the 2009 BC preliminary eventing champion; and Simply Irresistable, a 7/8ths Connemara who was 4th in the 2009 BC jr pre-entry divison championships.
