Has anyone any up to date websites/contacts with either performance type Welsh D stock or Welsh D x tb sports horses.

Needs to have a good jump in it as will event/hunt.

Not looking to breed and not a foal,
4yo+
Currently window shopping but would like an idea of what I’m looking for.

One of the best known performance lines of Welsh Ds are the Maesmynach bred. They can get big too; the stud sell very well for dressage and jumping and are very nice to deal with. They have youngsters at quite a range of prices; I highly recommend getting in touch with them - they are very welcoming. My Maesmynach is a little more traditional in her look but easily fulfills the performance title; she is very happy to jump 1m + and will do lateral work. She drag and trail hunts, shepherds at home and will do 20 miles over mountainous tracks with a smile and just enough sparkle to be a fun ride.

There are other lovely studs too: Corscaron breed performance horses as do Thorneyside. I hope I can have another Maesmynach one day though - I adore my clever little dragon.

ETA: I see you are looking for 4yo plus - most of the studs will not have 4year olds so it may be worth thinking of a 3y/o.

the Welsh cob sale in Builth Wells later in the year might also be a happy hunting ground for you!

I know of a fun mare for sale in ni. She’s a beautiful dun or buckskin mare but typical welsh d so not for numpties.

Pm if you want to know more.

absolutely nothing against mares at all but needs to be a fella due to just due to living arrangements ie mine thinks he’s Billy big balls when there’s girls and there’s lot of herding and biting and escaping

Mine is by Abergavenny Tango and loves his jumping/ drag hunting. Also does a nice dressage test. Only let down by his plum of a mother

Are the machno ponies Welsh D’s?

There's a Machno stallion local to me (in New Zealand) and some of his offspring compete locally, one crossed to a TB (I think) mare just stepped up to 4* eventing.
