An oriental pony to be sure!
In case you didn't know there is this page for all the notes on the Lutens (by a MUA member):

Thanks, E. I remember that site from my POL days, but I had forgotten all about it. It's bookmarked now.

Wow, I checked it out, R--that sounds wonderful. How'd I miss that, pony-mad child that I was?
