Welsh Ponies

General

Royal Windsor Horse Show

A lovely show to attend and Libbys first time to ride Buzby there at such a big event .They were placed 2nd in the A and B Olympia class. As grandparents so proud that she is competing with the adults and getting the same ride marks as them ,remarkable for a 13 yr old child on a stallion who two days previously was covering his mares and still behaved impecably. Also a success for the 12.2 Show Pony Smalland Playalong owned by Debbie and Ron Thomas and ridden by Libby she was 1st and Reserve Champion Novice Show pony.

Our first ridden show of the season

Our first ridden show of the season was Mid Wales BSPS, it was great to see in the Novice Small Breeds that the first three ponies we had bred. First was Cadlanvalley Valegro ridden by Libby, second was Cadlanvalley Sirocco ridden by Sarah Russell and third was Cadlanvalley Rio Grande ridden by Liane Evans.We were pleased that Valegro went on to be Novice Champion.

It was Libbys first ride on Cadlanvalley Buzby as she has not been old enough to ride a stallion until this year.We have waited a long time to see her ride him in the ring,and they were two stars together.Buzby was Open Champion and then finished Supreme of show.
