[Charlie007]

Peanut is a reg. welsh a could make a B if he keeps growing like he is peanut is 8 months old i think without looking at his passport he is a very friendly little chap and moves nicely he is chesnut with a blaze and 4 white socks so very flashy ideal show pony or kiddys pony ... call or txt for info

no it is entirely possible for a sec A to be upgraded to a sec B

 

[SmallHunter]

What ester said if an A goes over 12hh they can be re-registered as a B.

 

[Charlie007]

Crikey, would not have believed it!! So very different in type. Welsh A, small, fairly dished face, real pony looking, and B's tend to be like a small tb pony!!

 

[Cazza525]

OMG, you learn something new every day!

 

[ester]

I aim to educate

I did have to go and double check though

some more old fashioned Bs are actually much stockier and more like the As from what I have seen, much less spindly!

 

[SmallHunter]

From the WPCS website

The general description of ponies in Section A of the Stud Book is applicable to those in Section B, but more particularly the Section B pony shall be described as a riding pony, with quality, riding action, adequate bone and substance, hardiness and constitution and with pony character.

so basically they should be very similar with only height as the main difference.

Pathetic -how old are you 10?

and for the same reason my section C who went over 13.2 was reregistered as a D.....................

 

[Aoibhin]

yup does happen Cooie (sec C) foaled to a sec C stallion and the boy was passported as sec C untill he kept growing,
he is now 15.3 & passported as sec D.

Hmm just need a sec B and we got the full set

 

[pricklyflower]

Oh god, now I'm confused! My pony in her passport is a Section C but she's only 128cms?? Is it purely on height because if it is, she should be a B?

 

[LadyRascasse]

pricklyflower, i think that wouldn't be the case as A and B's are pony and pony type and C's and D's are cobs and cob types so a C would be too chunky to be classed as a B.

i am prepared to be corrected though

 

[pricklyflower]

Thanks LR! I'm glad I found this post as it made me get her passport out and do some digging and I've just found a photo of her father, who looks very similar to her.

I'm amazed at the differences (looks wise) between the different sections!

 

[SunSmile]

Pricklyflower - The setions only have upper height limits, so even tho your C is only 128cms he is still a C.
As already said you can (and have to) 'upgrade' a section but you can't go down a section just b'cos the pony doesnt make the height.

 

[SmallHunter]

I'm not sure about other sections but I know that a D can be re-registered as a C if under 13.2hh but they have to have a life height certificate

 

[brighteyes]

Yep, totally correct - our friend had a C which had been downgraded from a D as he was only 13 hands. I too hadn't realised B's could be reclassified overheight A's, though
