A pony breed that was once used to take milk to the creamery, bring turf from the bog, and help people to harvest seaweed will have a showcase outing at a rural show in the fertile Golden Vale on Saturday.
The Kerry bog pony national classes will be part of Cappamore Show in East Limerick, one of the most popular in Munster with a heritage spanning over 70 years.
