Klara og Lord Joker |
|
Matilde og Lord Joker |
As often happens with small ponies their rider get too
long legs for riding them so they have to change riders. Joker has been
leased out for riding to Klara for a while. The development of both have a
pleasure to follow. A new young rider - Matilde - has got Joker for riding
dressage and show jumping. We wish her good luck and we are looking
forward following them in the future.
Leucarum Elise Arrived
The Fayre Oaks purchase, Leucarum Elise, has arrived in
perfect condition. She is now in the barn with the other mares, and
hopefully she will find a friend or two in the future. In 2012 she will
have a foal by Leucarum Gatsby and will be covered by Rhydspence Squire.
Shortly she will have her own page under the link mares.

Again this year the Autumn holidays were held in the United Kingdom in
good company. The stud visits included Delami, Fronarth, Cascob and
Thistledown - all excellent places to see quality ponies and cobs and we
are so greatfull to the owners for showing us the ponies and sheared their
expert knowledge with us.
The Sale was interesting to follow; will there be any high flyers, will
the prices be high or low and well there be any trade. A few hgh prices
were given but not as in the previous year, but the average price seem to
be reasonable. The most expensive pony was the Welsh Part Bred and Horse
of the Year Qualifier Amesbury Dolly Mixture (£10300) follwed by the young
International sec.B champion Thistledown Artic Fox (£9000) and most
expensive welsh mountain pony was the stallion Dyfed Prophet (£5500).
A lovely trip and impressive to go to the United Kingdom to see nothing
else than sunshine!!
New Welsh Mountain Colt - Waxwing Pint Pot
In the Spring the colt foal Waxwing Pint Pot was spotted on the website
of the Waxwing Stud so he has now arrive to be the stallion prospect of
the future. He is brother to the up-and-comming stallion Waxwing Dick
Turpin being out of Waxwing Penny Dainty and by Waxwing Victory - a
popular stallion used with success at Cui and Thistledown Stud. We are
looking forward seeing him develop.
Clausholm Lord Joker Do Dressage Performance Test
For the first time the Danish Pony Breeding Societies
collaborated on having a performance test in dressage and show jumping for
younger ponies. Klara and Clausholm Lord Joker (Rhydspence Squire x

qualified for the national finals. Well done Klara and Joker.

Ysselvliedts Seline. Photo can be seen at the foal page.

to appear this year, but hopefully we will have the option of using Royal
Flight next year.
Success at Swedish Show
At the local welsh show at Burhult Stud in Sweden, the
yearling filly Särken Winnie by Telynau Souza out of Cottrell Wild Rose
was exhibited with success gaining a first prize and a gold medal for
quality. We wish her owner and breeder, Särken Stud, congratulations with
the nice results. Presently, she is for sale see
www.stuterisarken.se for more
information.
Another Grey Foal

The Royal Welsh Winner Moelgarnedd Dewin (Carwed Charmer x Moelgarnedd
Madonna) is the choice for our Royal Welsh Winner Clausholm Silica (Rhydspence
Squire x Clausholm Saphira) this year. Last year he was exported from
Sweden to the Dahlsminde Stud in the Southern part of Denmark. He
represents new bloodlines in Denmark though the sire and dam are wellknown
as being very good show and breeding ponies. We are looking forward seeing
the foal next year.
New Mares

Bronheulog Jodie with Juliet (left) and Cwrtycadno
Gloyw (right) |
Last year at a stud visit to the Bronheulog Stud
Bronheulog Jodie was spotted, and when
the Bronheulog Stud advertised her for sale in the early Spring, it was
decided that she could be a nice addition to the stud. She arrived in the
beginning of June with her daughter Juliet by Bronheulog Royal. Jodie has
a very nice pedigree being by Eyarth Figaro out of Hattongate Heidi which
both has produced many good show and ridden ponies in the United Kingdom
and abroad. Jodie is covered by the up and coming black stallion Hilin
Glyndwr.
Due to a decision of the Mirain Stud to be on standby for a while
Cwrtycadno Gloyw has been leased. She
is a rather young mare with a very attractive pedigree being by last years
Royal Welsh Champion Griashall Kiwi out of Cwrtycadno Glain, that
presently is at the Waxwing Stud. She is now running with Clausholm
Viking.
See more information on the pages of the mares.
New Foal
In the beginning of June Clausholm Saphira (Telynau Souza
x Warmwell Safran) got a super grey colt foal by Rhydspence Squire. A full
brother to our Royal Welsh Winner Clausholm Silica.
New Champion at Fynsk Juni Show
Again this year a Welsh Pony and Cob Society Show was held
on Funen. The first time the show was held we sponsored a trophy for the
overall supreme champion. This has been give to all other sections than B,
but this time the judge Herr Schumacher of the Mahrdorf Stud in Germany
chose the sec.B barren mare Lintelo Gracious (Lintelo Halycon x Lintelo
Gratitude by Paddock White Lightning) as overall supreme champion.
Congratulations to the Dahlsminde Stud. Photo by kind permisssion of
Dahlsminde.

Ysselvliedts Iron Destiny (Photo:

One of the new eyecatchers at this year's Dutch Stallion
Show was a grey welsh mountain pony by the name Ysselvliedts Iron Destiny
which also caught the judges eye being graded in 1st class. This grey
stallion is by the famous Springbourne Glide out of Ysselvliedts Irene by
Baledon Jerimiah going back through the granddam Sunwillow Isola to Coed
Coch Siaradus - one of the most prominent broodmares from Coed Coch. Hanne
of the Greenhill Stud was also present at the Stallion Show, and when she
saw him advertised for sale at the Ysselvliedt Stud, she made the
investment, and now he is in Denmark. It is always interesting when new
stallions arrive, and why not test him by sending a mare? The champion
mare Clausholm Duchess (Ysselvliedts Dalvair x Reekse Hoek Desi) was
chosen to be the mare. We are looking forward seeing the resulting foal
next year.
Foals by Cwrtycadno Sadwrn
The first and only foals by the young stalllion Cwrtycadno
Sadwrn (Cwrtycadno Cymro x Polaris Columbine) is born. First, a grey/roan
filly foal out of Clausholm Vitara (Rhydspence Squire x Kenwoods Virgina)
and then her dam, Kenwood Virginia (Eyarth Caradog x Shamrock Spindlewood),
got a grey/roan colt foal. Unfortunately, the milk of Vitara is not
sufficient for the filly foal, but this issue she has solved at the udder
of Virginia! Only Vitara is a little sceptical. We are very pleased with
both and we hope to bring some photos asap.

The next sec.B foal from Clausholm Viking (Rhydspence Squire x Kenwoods
Virginia) is born in Norway. A very nice chestnut filly, named Northwind
Circle of Life, out of Bronheulog Black Rose (Hilin Glyndwr x Bronheulog
Gypsy Rose). Congratulations to the Northwind Stud and her owner Linda
Gaptjern. Another two foals are expected by Viking this Summer and fingers
crossed for success. We are looking forward following the foals in the
future.
New Rider for Clausholm Lord Joker
Clausholm Lord Joker (Rhydspence Squire x Kenwoods Lady Jill) has been
leased out for riding purposes to 12 year-old Klara who will ride him
untill she gets too old in the end of this year. We are looking forward
seeing the red rosettes achieved at dressage competitions.
Another Filly Foal Is Born
Mid-May saw the arrival of the first sec.B foal this year
- a chestnut/grey filly by Rhydspence Squire out of Clausholm Lady
Jacqueline. Pictures will come asap
Clausholm Lord Joker Gelded
We decided to let Joker geld as his future will be as top
performance pony which requires 100% concentration from both pony and a
young jockey.

New Owners of Clausholm Scilla and Clausholm Delight

Safran is now owned by 6 year-old Dicte who will use her for riding in the
future. Mum fell in love with the welsh mountain filly Clausholm Delight

Pendock Mantovani. We looking forward following the all in the future.

In the beginning of April the first foals of Clausholm
Viking started to arrive in Norway at the Northwind Stud. First was the
palomino filly Northwinds Moulin Rouge ex. Bleachgreen Swallow by Cnapton
Chipmunk followed by the colt foal Northwinds La Boheme ex. Molinas Gipsy
by Eyarth Ramah. Both look to have a bright future, and fingers crossed
that the remaining 4 foals at Northwind will be of equal quality.
New Stallion at Stud
From the Mirain Stud we have leased the young stallion
Cwrtycadno Sadwrn, who also spend last Summer with some of our mares,
for 2011. He will be available on the same conditions as
Telynau Souza,
Rhydspence Squire,
Clausholm Viking
and Pendock
Mantovani. Cwrtycadno Sadwrn won a bronze medal and several supreme
championships as foal, and at the Mirain stud he sired several nice foals
including the colt foal Mirain Toy Soldier who was overall supreme
champion at the largest Foal and Youngstock Show in Denmark. We are
looking forward seeing the foals out of Kenwoods Virginia and her daughter
Clausholm Vitara.
Clausholm Dutch Design
One of the first welsh mountain ponies we bred was Clausholm Dutch
Design (Vechtzicht Hazy x Reekse Hoek Desi). He is still fit for fight,
says his present owner, Karina Kold, who uses him at stud and as ridden
pony. He loves being used whether with minor pilot or loose jumped as
shown on the picture. We look forward following him in the future.
Stallions at Stud 2011
Again this year we can offer out proven stallions,
Telynau Souza,
Rhydspence Squire,
Clausholm Viking
and Pendock
Mantovani, at stud to visiting mares. Take a look at their sites by

Again in 2011 the Winter Holidays were spend in the Netherlands at the
stallion show. As always we saw plenty of stallions all containing more or
less welsh blood. Even for Winter Holidays it was lovely to see green
grass and feel 10 degrees!!
Several ponies were entered for the first inspection on Friday. The
largest group consisted of Dutch partbreds followed by the welsh mountain
ponies and welsh ponies. Of approx. 120 entered around 35 passed first
inspection and was allowed to proceed to inspection on hard ground and
veterinary examination. Saturday was initiated giving premiums to the
previous graded ponies. As the newly graded Dutch part breds ponies are
not allowed for the part bred championship, the champion was chosen from
the older ponies being Heitraks Marvin (De Goede Ree Now or Never x
Molenhorns Gracia). Among the 3-year-old approved part breds the most
spectacular trotting pony was selected. The honour was awarded Orchard (G)
Wildeman (Orchard Red Prince x Orchard Swetlana). The champion of the
"real" part breds was again this year David van den Hout (FS Champion de
Luxe x Naomi van den Hout) without much competition as no new Welsh Part
Breds were graded. Limited number of entries characterised the cobs and
cob type ponies so the championship for sec.C was awarded to the one and
only Cobmels Syndod Haf (Fronarth Lucky Strike x Washingpool Hafwen). Of
the previous and new graded welsh pony stallions the championship was
awarded to Bekvelds Dave (Breeton Dai x Woldbergs Song) though there were
some good colts among the newly graded 3-year-olds headed by Stockham
Aristocrat (Rotherwood Aristotle x Horsegate Sapphire). The second largest
lot of the weekend consisted of mountain ponies, and here the newly graded
ponies could neither compete with the previous graded ponies as the
championship was awarded to Roetsenests Santa Fe (Springbourne Glide x
Nebus Serena). De Evertshoeves D'Elegance (Vlonderzichts Harm x De
Everthoeves Angaretta) and Ysselvliedts Iron Destiny (Springbourne Glide x
Ijsselvliedts Irene) headed the classes for 3-year-old and elderly,
respectively. A nice break in a cold snowy Winter, and as always in good
company.
Clausholm Dot Sold
The filly Clausholm Dot by the Australian owned Ysselvliedt Golden Boy
out our foundation mare Reekse Hoek Desi has changed owner. We wish Birgit
and the girl a lot of success with her in the future.
