Sales March 16, 2010   We often have youngstock for sale and occasionally have ponies already with training. We do encourage sales of youngsters at affordable prices which allows their new owner to begin training. Our young ponies do undergo much training even before they begin under saddle. As weanlings, they learn to stand for the vet and farrier and even begin to learn about being loosely tied for grooming. As yearlings, they go to the trainer's barn to learn what it is like to be around the hustle and bustle of a show barn. They begin working in a round pen and even start wearing a bit at this time. As two year olds, they are introduced to the saddle and learn about lining. Our youngstock is not broken under saddle until the winter of their third year, when they are coming four year olds. This gives them plenty of time to grow and learn all the ground manners needed to be a child's pony. All of our ponies are up to date on vaccines (EWT, West Nile, Potomac and Rabies), farrier work and deworming. All of the ponies have been microchipped to be able to maintain a positive ID on each individual. We have a "Welcome Home policy" for all ponies that we have bred. Should an owner find themselves in unfortunate circumstances and not able to keep the pony, he or she may be returned to our farm at any time, no questions asked.   Sommertime Oasis Sis is a section B, grey filly (foaled black roan) born in March 2008. She is by Gayfields Silver Sprocket and out of a Cloe Olympian mare named Sommertime Opening Ceremony. She is a very friendly filly that will run to the door to say "Hi!" when you enter her stall. At the ripe old age of one month, she would lead so well that my six year old son was the one who turned her out in the morning and brought her back to her stall in the evening. She also stands well for the farrier, who has commented on both of this year's fillies that they are the best sucklings she has ever worked with. Sis already has show experience. She attended the Heartland Welsh Show in July 2008 winning the B yearling and under class as well as the mare & foal class, under both judges. In August 2008, she attended the Midwest Welsh Event taking home two second place ribbons. She definitely has that "look at me" personality that will show well on the line as a youngster. But she also has the conformation and bloodlines to be a fabulous performance pony when she is older. On March 23, 2009 Sis had an accident that resulted in her fracturing her first pastern. After three month of care, she has healed well according to the vet's opinion when viewing her x-rays. However, I feel it would be unethical of me to promise she will remain sound for under saddle work. But the vet feels she will be sound for breeding purposes. Because of this, she will be sale only as a broodmare prospect, only. Sis has come back stronger and better than I dared to dream she would. Sis attended three Welsh Double Gold shows in 2009 and did so well that she finished the year Reserve Champion B Fillies in the North Central region, 7th in the North East region and 16th in the nation for section B fillies! She remained completely sound throughout her travels and showing, so we have decided to show her in 2010 in an attempt to help her sire earn his Sire Legion of Merit. After that time, she will be for sale.     Sommertime Riddle Riddle is a section B, grey filly (foaled black) born in March of 2008. She is by Gayfields Silver Sprocket and out of my imported mare, *Cloigen Ruby. She is a wonderful girl and with a super personality. She has excellent conformation and I am looking forward to showing her this year. Riddle was not shown last year because I can only haul one mare and foal combination and she lost the coin toss. Riddle is the last foal from my beautiful *Cloigen Ruby, who passed away in the fall of '08. Since I decided long ago that I will sell all foals and not keep the best for myself, she is for sale. Her price is a firm $2,500, and I feel she will be worth every dime of that.     Gallod Ji-Binc Binky is an extremely typie Section C, Welsh Pony of Cob Type Gelding and stands 12.1 hh. He has correct conformation topped of by a stunning head. He has the build and Welsh type to continue to do well in the Halter ring. He was shown in halter at several shows in 2008. He placed well in all of the Pony Halter classes where he participated. He is broke under saddle and to cart. Although I have not driven him since we purchased him, I can say he is fabulous in the long lines. He spent several months with the trainer last year working on solidifying his ground work, sacking out and getting him fit for the show ring. He was a willing pony who learned well what he was being taught. He was purchased to be a walk-trot pony for my son, but my son is growing so fast that he will outgrow Binky very soon. Besides, I think this pony is destine for an amazing driving career! Binky is priced at only $2,500. Buy him now and have him ready for show season!     Sommertime Zoot Suit Riot (Gayfields Silver Sprocket x Zangible) 7 year old, 13.2 hh grey Half-Welsh gelding. He was shown English Pleasure in Welsh ring in 2009. Zoot finished 5th in the NE Region, 6th in the NC Region and 19th in the Nation for Half-Welsh Adult English Pleasure. Zoot was also shown in Intro level dressage in 2008 where he did very well. More info and pictures to come. $7,000
