This month we welcomed another new addition to Brynmor, Welsh Section A Mare ‘Glynyarra Park Demelza’ (Weston Mistletoe x Trently Dilys)  I have admired this mare for quite some time, so when the opportunity came to buy her I couldn’t resist.  We took 2 ponies to the SA Welsh and Riding Pony Youngstock show at Oakbank in January.  Part Welsh/RP filly Brynmor Lucille and the Yearling Welsh B Gelding ‘Wynara Showoff’ (owned by Wynara Stud).

We had a bit of a setback this month with Daniel breaking his arm badly after falling off (of all things) a cat scratching pole!  He had been progressing with his riding lately, finally mastering Rising trot – unfortunately now he’s out of the saddle until October.

A broken arm hasn’t slowed him down though, he feeds and cleans Harmony’s yard every night, mastering the pooper scooper one handed!  He’s more upset that he’s not allowed to ride.

Brynmor Lucille left for her new home this month.  She made the long trip over to WA to new owner Luke Dawes.  Luke plans on starting her under saddle and showing her at Perth Royal and WA HOTY.  We wish Luke every success with her.

We have a new addition to our Show Team, the striking gelding, Seawynd Hallmark (Seawynd Red Flyer x Barnon Heirs Cheers).  Soon after being weaned, Hamish attended his first show, the SA Welsh and Riding Pony Foal Show on the 3^rd May where he placed 1^st in both his classes.  Thank you to Lana Crompton from Seawynd Stud for allowing me to purchase Hamish.  He’s an entertaining young man, and we’re having a lot of fun with him.

A last minute decision was made to take young Daniel (3yrs) and the 20yr old Shetland pony ‘Woodview Harmony’ (on loan from Wynara Stud)  to compete in the Tiny Tots classes at Macclesfield Show.

Harmony decided she wasn’t a show pony any more and when we opened the stable door in the morning we were rather amused to find her standing there with every square inch of her covered in sawdust, she had it up inside her rugs and even in her ears!   It took some brushing to finally get her clean again.

Daniel and Harmony had a successful day placing 2^nd in Led Handler under 4yrs, 2^nd in Rider under 4yrs and 4^th in Monte Carlo.  Daniel wasn’t too keen on getting up early, so took the opportunity to have a sleep in the car on the way home.  There was no way he was letting go of his ribbons!

We took 2 ponies to the SA Welsh and Riding Pony Youngstock show at Oakbank in January.  Part Welsh/RP filly Brynmor Lucille and the Yearling Welsh B Gelding ‘Wynara Showoff’ (owned by Wynara Stud).

Lucille did well placing 3^rd in all her Part Welsh and Riding Pony Classes, and Wynara Showoff won both his Gelding classes in Rings 1 and 2 and was awarded Champion Gelding in one ring and Reserve Champion Gelding in the other.
