Anyone heard of them?

How are their horses?

From the adverts ive seen they seem to produce fantastic ponies.

The link for their website doesnt work!

thanks!
 
I'm not 100% sure but I think that the Stud owner may be winding down although please dont take this as gospel.

We have broken a few of the Machno ponies for the owner in the past and a few have gone on to do well as performance Sports Ponies, which was the basis for the Stud.Their lines were based on Carregcoch Bleddyn who was the sire of Macno Carwyn, who was a prolific jumping stallion overseas.
 
Look on the spss website you will find more details there ,Waterborn on here has a lovely filly by Machno Carwyn she may be able to help .
 
fantastic ponies! friend of mine is very good friends with the people at the stud and used there stallions.has 3 mares scanned in foal to there tb stallion.If you need any more info please pm me.
 
I think you need to know what you are doing as these ponies can be sharp! Helped break one of them in and he was very sensitive. They are as wild as wild - mountain bred - but I think the stud owner bred too many and sold too few before they 'took off'. Don't quote me either but I'd say the £ signs were ringing up in his eyes... and it was quantity rather than considered strategy.
 
I have a 2 year old filly by Machno Carwyn, she is showing fantastic jumping potential has springs attached to her feet!) and I am very pleased with her. As a yearling, I did wonder what her temperament would turn out to be but, as she matures, she is lovely to do and very trainable. My thoughts are to loan her out as a four year old & watch her progress.
