[Sarah Sum1]

How big was he? Looks like he has some Welsh D in him to me

 

[Ladyinred]

Is that a UFO or a coffee stain?

I would think pony is either NF or a Connie.. very smart and rather lovely.

 

[Jesstickle]

I second the section D idea. Especially in the first piccy. He looks very handsome

He was 14.1

^^ UFO most deffinately by the looks of things.

Beautiful pony I'd say Connie or Welsh D in him.

 

[Ravenwood]

What a lovely pony How tall? looks about 14.2 ish?

I love the second photo

As to breed, lots of Welsh in him I should think

ETA - just seen post above about height

LOL! It is in fact a hot air balloon! Not sure why it didn't come out properly in the photo I took of the photo

 

[SnaffyBoodle]

I would say Welsh D, in the third photo he looks just like my friends old sec D

 

[Dancing Queen]

I Second the welsh sec d.

[patchwork puzzle]

I agree Sec D. He definately looks very Welsh, a gorgeous looking boy. x

 

[FanyDuChamp]

I'm gona go against the grain I don't think he looks anything like a welsh d. I'm going for tb x nf

 

[Liesel]

Gosh I thought I had found a thread about our pony! He looks just like my daughter's first pony Jacob. We dont have a passport either so guessed he was Welsh Dx. He is 20 years old now and still full of fun. In his youth (before we owned him) he was a JC. I have his BJSA record I would love to find out more about him. He's called Agent J when competing. Although my daughter is now on horses, sadly 14.2 didnt last long with her legs. We still own him and the young girl who has him loves him to bits.

- Ruby and Jacob 12 & 17 respectively!

But he's black. I reckon section D because of that, crossed with maybe an arab x welsh That sounds kind of racist doesn't it

 

[stencilface]

We have a welsh x tb and his face looks very similar to yours

 

[maletto]

deffo welsh I think.

very gorgeous!

 

[Kao]

Welsh D, or Welsh D x TB.

 

[KVH]

Stunning! My bet would be on Welsh D too.. the UFO amused me!

 

[Eriskayowner]

I would vote for some Welsh as well. He has some of the features that Blackjack (my old showjumper) had - he was Welsh D x TB.

Aww he is gorgeous, very similar to my old boy! Although he would be a around 28 now if he is still with us. He was just shy of JC when I sold him, when I got him he wouldn't jump coloured poles, and fillers were an absoloute no no! But I kept on working with him (didn't even have many lessons, as my parents said they were paying enough already!) and in the end I had affliated him and he was jumping so well! I was very proud of him. He was also an incredibly spooky pony, couldn't pin a rosette on him easily and he wasn't keen on things around his head in general. Bags and flaping things were a nightmare. But again he learned to trust me and we had a great bond.

 

[Sarah Sum1]

Thanks for all the replies guys Welsh seems to be the favourite, but a few going against the grain. Wish I knew for certain

So if he's black he must be a section D - is that what you're saying?

so this pony must be a D too?

No of course not, just that it is common in welsh ponies and rare in NFs and TBs. That coupled with a welshy head is what makes me think welsh is all

 

[skychick]

I think arab x welsh, looks very much like a pony i used to own.

 

[intouch]

First thought was Anglo-Arab, def not Connie.

 

[Toast]

def section D or at least part bred D

this ^^ with emphasis on the part bred. I doubt he's a Connie, but a bit of NF maybe. He looks lovely

 

[3DE]

He's very welsh D looking but his head seems a bit more dished than in a pure welsh so I'd go for crossed with an arab

 

[jumptoit]

I would have said Welsh D crossed with personally.
