The Broodmares

Our non-native mares carry a high percentage of TB / Arab / Trakehner blood, and also the famous Piran pony bloodlines, so favoured by German sports pony breeders. We believe our mares are the right stamp to cross well onto the increasingly wide range of proven sports pony stallions available at public stud. From our mares we aim to produce sports ponies and small horses of good character, well suited to the disciplines of dressage, show jumping, eventing and hunter classes.

El Crysto / Blue Sun / Salih

Pedigree

 

'Winnie’ is a beautiful 14.1hh liver chestnut mare by El Crysto out of Ashwod Juella (Blue Sun). Her grand sire, Carrick Crystif, who's breeding is best described as English / Crabbet, was bred by the famous Carrick stud. A true riding horse, he won many major shows under saddle; his crowning glory being ridden champion at the Horse Of The Year Show. As with many of today's successful sports ponies, Winnie's pedigree is littered with famous names such as Oran, Ludo, Blue Domino and Count Dorsaz, to name but a few.  

 

Winnie is a very good looking, correct mare with loose expressive paces. She qualified for the Cherif Championship first time out. She has been placed in affiliated dressage and ridden sports pony classes.

 

Spring 2009 will be Winnie's first year at stud.

Strinesdale Matador x Becconsall Cherry Bee

Pedigree

 

'Florence' is a 148cm chestnut mare by Strinesdale Matador, out of a county level TB show hack. Strinesdale Matador is one of the most sought after pony sires of today. His fine paces and temperament have been recognised internationally, not only in the show pony world but also in the Sports Pony world by his inclusion in the American Sports Pony Society register and the British Sports Pony Studbook Society register. His progeny are excelling both in the show ring and in dressage. 

 

Florence has only been lightly shown in-hand, but in these few outings she has either been placed first or second.


Spring 2009 will be Florence's first year at stud.

Ahwell / Piran Little John / Cusop Connoisseur

Pedigree

 

Isadora’ is a five year old chestnut mare by an Anglo Arab (Ellation x Western Night) out of the British Riding Pony mare 'Piran Amerella'. Piran Amerella's sire was Piran Little John who was by Piran John Halifax, a name which appears in so many sport pony pedigrees. Piran Amerella's dam, Piran Camilla, was by Cusop Connoisseur (Bwlch Valentino) out of Arden Domino (Blue Domino x Ardmay), again all well known sports pony names. 

 

Sadly, Isadora had a nasty field accident as a two year old which has left one of her hind legs badly scared. Consequently, she has never had an in-hand or ridden career. However, when the opportunity arose to buy her from her breeder, Mrs J Tovey, we jumped at the chance. Isadora's beautiful bloodlines, conformation and presence make her an exciting broodmare prospect and we are thrilled to have her in our herd.

 

Spring 2009 will be Isadora's first year at stud.

Gilly's Surprise

 

Gilly's Surprise (1990) New Forest Pony Mare

Fully Registered with the NFPB&CS 

Wellhouse Shepherd's Boy x Millersford Polly

Pedigree

 

Gilly is a 135cm registered New Forest Pony mare. Her grandsire is the famous Peveril Peterborough, renowned for his jumping ability and as the sire of many top ponies. Gilly’s dam, Millersford Polly, lived on the forest all her life; Gilly, therefore, is forest bred. Her sensible temperament, surefootedness and ability to thrive ‘on thin air’ are doubtless a reflection of this. 

Gilly came to us in later life and we feel she never really fulfilled her potential undersaddle. However, after only a couple of BHS TREC competitions Gilly and Dani found themselves ranked 21st on the BHS TREC Newcomers Winter League 2005-2006 (which placed them in the top 10% in the UK).

Gilly has now retired to stud and will be put to a New Forest Pony stallion in 2009.

Mandalin War Bonnet    

 

Mandalin War Bonnet (1990 - 2003) British Riding Pony

Registered with the NPS

War God x Piran Amerella (Piran Little John)

Pedigree

 

In memory of Mandalin War Bonnet ('Sybil')


Without Mandalin War Bonnet there would be no Arcenciel Stud. Sybil was our first encounter with a British Riding Pony and she captivated us from the outset. Sybil was exquisite, spirited and beautifully bred. She was supposed to be our first broodmare, however fate had different ideas and sadly Sybil was put to sleep before we could fulfil that dream.

However, we have sought out her blood lines, (Piran / Bwlch / Blue Domino / Ardmay), and many of our ponies are related to Sybil. In fact, in 2005 we were lucky enough to find and buy Sybil's half sister, Isadora (Rochand Quest). Sybil's bloodlines and her memory will live on.
