RECTORY TEGAN By Ystraddewi Tywysog by Derwen Rosina's Last Tegan is everything I wanted to breed in a cob. She won championships in hand before I sold her and her full sister (very regretfully). However they both went to a fabulous owner in Debbie Murray, Essendon Stud, where they were broken to ride. Teg's full sister, Tywysoges was successful in WHP. After breeding two foals for Debbie, Myron and Madonna, Tegan went on to have a very successful career under saddle, winning many Championships and qualifying for most of the major ridden competitions at PUK etc. This culminated in 5th place in a large ridden mare class at the Royal Welsh in 2004. In October 2004 Debbie sold Teg at the Cob sales as she was giving up, I was given first refusal on her but decided she would be wasted with me as I was still working at the time and not in a position to start breeding again. She was sold to Tracy Lewis of Cwmmawr stud where this year she had a lovely filly foal by Tracy's stallion, Brynithon The Exterminator. Tracy has decided to cut down, and so Tegan has 'come home' to be with her daughter and hopefully breed me some more lovely foals. I couldn't risk losing touch with her and so she will stay here for the rest of her life. Attended 3 medal shows in 2007, winning 2 x 1st and 2 x 2nd including In foal to Blaenpennal Black Jack for 2009 |

ESSENDON MADONNA By Essendon Thomas by Broughton True Flyer I lost my old mare, Chance, in 2002 and went to see Teg's daughter at Debbie's. One look at her huge liquid eyes and that was it! I had also lost that bloodline in selling Teg and Tywysoges as I no longer had the mare and stallion. Maddie came to me as a yearling in 2002 and was lightly shown that year and she was never out of the top three, including a second in an Open class against adult Sec D's. I am hoping to show her next year as a 6yr old,as is usual with this line, they take a long time to mature, but are well worth waiting for when they do! All being well she will be put in foal in 2008. As well as her lines to Pentre Eiddwen Comet through Nebo Black Magic, she also has several lines to him through Tyhen Comet. |

RECTORY MOON MYSTIQUE By Rhystyd Welsh King by Brenin Gwalia Mitzi was the first foal I bred out of a home bred mare. She has had 4 foals, all colts by Tywysog and Geraint, but the elusive filly was not to be to carry on her lovely old bloodlines, unfortunately. At 21 she is now retired and the 'leader of the pack!' |

ARAN GINGERSNAP By Aran Idris by Hendy Brenin Aran is a real sweetie and the image of her grandsire. Bought at the cob sales as a 2yr old for the Hendy Brenin bloodline, she has bred all fillies but due to having to reduce in the 90's, none were kept. She was broken at about 12yrs and we plodded around to keep my OH company until I fell off badly and broke my collar bone and that was that! She is 19yrs now and sadly has a touch of arthritis in her shoulder so I don't think it fair to try and breed from her again. As she is so good natured, she usually keeps the babies company. |
