From 238 entries from all over Wales and as far as Buckinghamshire,
the Show supreme, the in-hand section C mare Rangeview Rhiannon and
the reserve supreme, the ridden section D mare Haighmoor Gwenllian
were both novices, Rhiannon entering the show-ring for the first
time ever and Gwenllian making her debut under saddle.
Rangeview Rhiannon
Champion Section C and Supreme
|
Rhiannon, produced by the Gloucestershire Popsters Stud for Derek
and Debbie Conti of Salisbury, is a daughter of Synod Romantica, the
top-priced section C at 1,500 gns when bought by the Contis as a
foal on the 1988 Brightwells Royal Welsh Sale to start their Stud
and this was the first time the ten-year-old Rhiannon had ever left
home. Rangeview Stud only breed from their mares in alternate years
and since this was her barren year after having produced four
fillies, it was decided that this was the year for showing.
Rhiannon’s sire Synod George was also once owned by Rangeview Stud
and is still alive and well at 26 years. Her sister Rangeview Rosa
(foaled in 1998) qualified at BSPS Area 6 for the ridden M&M
championships at the Horse of the Year Show in 2003. Rhiannon is an
exceptional mare to beat all the seasoned campaigners at her first
attempt. |
|
Julie Evans’ seven-year-old Haighmoor Gwenllian had only been with
Beth Simons at Narberth in Pembrokeshire for four weeks to be broken
to saddle after having an illustrious in-hand career which included
twice winning the Royal Welsh Winter Fair and being youngstock
champion at the Royal of England in addition to winning countless
County Shows. From her exemplary performance she could well be
mistaken as having been ridden for years.

Penstrumbly Norma Jean
Champion Section D |
Reserve to Rhiannon for the in-hand championship was the very worthy
section D champion, the seven-year-old mare Penstrumbly Norma Jean.
Bought by the Prater family of Cwrtnewydd, Llanybydder for 3,000 gns
at the Penstrumbly Sale in 2005; her sire Menai Firestorm sold to
Abergavenny Stud for the same price on the same Sale. Norma Jean is
one of the most exciting cob mares to enter the showing scene for
years and is another who went straight to the top on her first
attempt. Reserve to Gwenllian for the ridden championship was John
and Ann James’ section B mare Sianwood Amelia ridden by their
daughter Phillipa and Amelia also collected the section B in-hand
championship. Amelia’s dam Abercrychan Antonia is a grand-daughter
of Antonia which the late Mrs Lena Thomas bought to start the
Abercrychan Stud. Antonia is also grand-dam of Harmony Bubbling
Champagne, the 1974 Horse of the Year riding pony champion. |
|
The riding pony mini champion was Hywel and Yvonne Davies’
six-year-old section A lead-rein winner Penllyn Plover, one of the
Penllyn ponies which the late Mrs Homfray had gifted to her helper
Ike Davies. When Hywel went to collect her last year, Plover had
produced a filly foal so he got two for the price of one! Reserve
mini champion was Jenny Thomas from Blackwood with the four-year-old
part-bred lead-rein Little Lord Fontleroy which Jenny had reared on
the bottle since he was rejected by his mother at birth. |

Mini Champion with Mrs Sue Cooke |
Dukeshill Darcy
Champion Section A with Mrs Jocelyn Price |
Kathy and Joanna Sheil’s seven-year-old stallion Dukeshill Darcy was
section A in-hand champion. Darcy won five championships last year
and his sire Dukeshill Magnum, now sixteen-years-old and running out
with his mares qualified for the Horse of the Year Show Cuddy
In-hand championship at the Three Counties in 2002. |
|
Anne Prichard-Simmons’ five-year-old stallion Cupidhill Calvados was
in-hand part-bred champion and he has twice won at the Royal Welsh.
His sire Trellech Courvoisier died at the Stud last year aged 25 but
has left one mare to foal to him this time. |

Judges were Mrs Jocelyn Price (Courtway) section A & B; Mr Cemaes
Evans (Cathedine) C and WPB; Mr Meurig Thomas (Cruglwyd) D and Mrs
Sue Cooke (Marl) ridden.
