Twelve small foals are born this year in our stud farm !
Five mini Shetland foals, two Welsh A, two Welsh B, two Arabians horses and a son of Emilion (KWPN). This is not a poney but instead a tall horse for sport. This foal is already tall above average. His mother is Kanaii du Tallis by Arpad des Six censes x Horcica by Fantastique (Ibrahim), and his sire is the well-known Emilion de VDL stud te Beers (vd Lageweg) (Netherlands). Emilion is one of the best stallions of the jumping world (World Champion Millstreet). One of his sons has been many times World Champion and Horse of the Year in the US.

Summer 2009:
Welsh Poney Club International Show, Netherlands. The best ponies, coming from all over Europe, were present. This was to be the place where we fell in love with our new Welsh B stallion champion, HILIN CATO (right). We bought him immediately after the show, because many potential buyers were ready to "steal" him ! He is so beautiful !.
We also bought Dream Team's Kassandra (under) at the same show. She was selected in an Elite special auction. We like very much her "arabian type" head with expressive eyes and her dream lineage ! |
