24.01.2022 SOLD Currently have a dear little gelding, rising 5, 11.2hh just broken in. He is a genuine kids pony of the future, but needs some more time with experienced small adult or capable younger person before being handed over to the littlies. Top quality, grey, fully registered easy to do anything with, loves people. He is available at a really reasonable price now as he needs further time to reach his potential. Message or call me for more details
24.01.2022 ****SOLD***** I have a lovely little gelding that I have started breaking to harness. I have come to the realisation that I won't be able to do him justice as he has the movement for the show ring which is not my thing. He is too small to fit into my combined driving team at under 11hh. He has the movement and the heart of a much bigger pony and I am confident in the right hands he could go to the top in the Show Driving world. He is grey, with dark points and white socks, so will be flashy for quite a while. He has a good attitude to his training and plenty of "look at me" attitude. I would love to sell him to the right home or I would consider a lease. PM me if you would like some more info.

(Sunwillow Jubilee (AI UK) x Madison Park Patience) Pom is the first progeny of ...the Royal Welsh winner ***Sunwillow Jubilee (UK) *** to be offered for purchase in Australia. Like having an imported pony without the plane fare! On her Dam's side she goes back to the legendary Coed Coch Norman (imp) with the best of Owendale bloodlines. Bred in the purple, full of lovely Welsh type, straight - from the shoulder movement and a sweet temperament, she would be an asset in any breeding program.

21.01.2022 A first at Mosman Park. A double dilute filly. Cremello or Perlino? I am no good at these colors. Sunwillow Jubilee x Madison Park Patience
19.01.2022 EOI Snip,snip! Finnigan, booked for gelding next week, seems a crime so much bone and type with a temperament second to none. Oh well, awesome lead rein pony then.
18.01.2022 We delivered two lucky young ponies to a gorgeous young lady today. It is wonderful when you can place ponies in a beautiful home that offers them a brilliant future. Happy Breeder
15.01.2022 So excited. Have loved the Islyn ponies since I first laid eyes on them. Thank you to Dora and family for allowing him to make the big journey. Now to learn to say his name!
14.01.2022 With the hustle and bustle of the fabulous International Welsh Show and VAWS behind us, this week I have been enjoying playing with and photographing this years babies.
13.01.2022 'A Breeders Dream’- attending the 20th International Welsh Show Sydney hosted by the Welsh Pony and Cob Society of Australia by Salima Keswani This week I have ...fallen in love with a country, it’s people, a small white dog with anger issues, and a fabulous pony. Almost 10 years ago, a firm friendship was made with Margaret and Rod Sperrin of Mosman Park Stud, Australia when they purchased some frozen semen from Sunwillow Jubilee. The birth of the beautiful buckskin filly Mosman Park Britannia out of Mosman Park Bella in 2012 saw Margaret buy all the remaining Jubilee semen and become his ‘Down Under Mum’. When the talk that the International show for 2019 would be held in Australia began 4 years ago a plan was hatched. Inspired by Sunwillow and Heniarth who had gone before me, the plan was to have an ‘Amilas’ 3yo to show at the show. Not all great plans go the way expected and the first insemination failed so we went back to the drawing board. The following year via the power of Facebook Madison Park Patience joined Mosman Park Stud and was subsequently leased to me. What a mare she turned out to be, the outcome of her first insemination was a beautiful filly, Amilas Pomegranate 2017, on her next, the colt Amilas Pendragon 2018 and this year she’s had another beautiful filly Pandora. It was the yearling colt Pendragon, who’s resemblance to his sire is uncanny, that was chosen for the long trip from Melbourne to Sydney. I arrived at Margret and Rod Sperrin’s house on Monday this week to meet my ‘Amilas’ babies for the first time and on Tuesday we began the 900km trip to the Sydney International Equestrian Centre. My co driver Jess Jackson and I being trusted with Rod’s Ute and float and left loose on our own driving for 2 days along the Hume Highway. The first thing you notice as you arrive at the Sydney International Equestrian Centre is the Sydney Opera House esque indoor arena, swiftly followed by the vast and impressive stable complex. Built for the 2000 Olympics it’s an impressive and well maintained legacy. Arriving on Wednesday, we were met by a quiet showground but the buzz of anticipation was already simmering. By Friday morning almost every stable was filled and the showground was alive. Several small settlements had sprung up around each amenities block (which provided showers and toilets) and the accommodation cabins on site had started to look like a Butlins holiday camp. On Friday afternoon the inaugural Welsh and partbred Ridden championship took place in the indoor arena and it was encouraging to see the classes well supported with some breed sections so large they had to be split into heats. In the evening hotdogs sponsored by The Welsh Pony and Cob Society of France were served overlooking the arena whilst the Championships were judged and the party atmosphere (and nerves) kicked in. Pendragon’s class was the first at 8am so an early start but the show ground was a hive of activity as we headed down to the picture perfect grass showring with Pen wearing his beautiful Welsh made Helen Reader bridle (that required me having a quick appointment with border control on the way through the airport) and the laid back, snoozy colt turned into a fire breathing dragon. The stewards here are very organised, you are collected in one spot in preparation to enter the ring and await instructions, which isn’t that easy to do with an overexcited yearling colt bouncing about. Once we were in the ring the class went by in a blur. Pen was somewhat fired up, but held it together, trotting his socks off. I was so proud of him, blown away by his Squid like attitude, and so extremely grateful to Margaret and Rod Sperrin for making all this possible. I’d have been happy had the story ended there. We achieved what we had set out to do. That isn’t how it ends though, Pen won his class and after the other junior classes were done he went into the youngstock championship, by far the baby of the group I expected nothing but he was pulled forward as Reserve Champion behind the beautiful and mature yearling filly EaglePark Venus. Venus later stood Supreme International Youngstock Champion. The well supported in hand classes, judged across two rings ran on into the night and the championship’s had to be relocated into the indoor arena with background music provided by a live male voice choir. Whilst unplanned it certainly made an incredible spectacle to end in-hand day. The tireless and fantastic team that put on this show have to be thanked, as it was a truly memorable event. As we head home my gratitude to Margaret and Rod Sperrin is unending, my total admiration of everyone who has worked so hard to make this event such a success is limitless and thank you to all the new friends I’ve made this weekend for you company, support, encouragement and help. P.S. Pendragon isn’t coming home, the next plan for him is well underway and let’s hope that works out as well as this one did. Editor’s note - this colt carries three crosses of Coed Coch Norman a past Royal Welsh Champion when shown by John Hendy. He was imported to Australia back in the 1970’s by the Owendale Stud of Pauline,Bob and Darrell Owen
11.01.2022 We at Mosman Park wish all our friends the best in these difficult times. I feel so lucky to have space and ponies and dogs around me for the duration of the pandemic. Fortunately ponies and dogs don't understand or require social distancing

04.01.2022 These two ladies in waiting managed to have a mani pedi in lockdown courtesy of me Margaret. Then turned out onto the Misty Mountain this morning. Madonna in foal to Arielen Nimrod, Matilda in foal to Bamborough Catcher.
03.01.2022 Run free, my pretties.
02.01.2022 With colts far outnumbering fillies this year at Mosman Park, these little fellows will be available at weaning and a small deposit will secure. With the curren...t situation in Australia, I don't feel it is appropriate to offer them as colts. My plan is to geld them all before delivery. They will be well handled, gelded, registered, and value for money. (If anyone feels they would like one of them for a show/stud colt, speak up before they get the snip!) Please feel free to PM or call me for further information :) See more
