WELSH
PARTBRED
Welsh Pony blood is eagerly
sought for outcrossing with Arabs, Thoroughbreds, Hackneys and Polo
Ponies.
To these established breeds, the infusion of the Welsh blood has given
the resultant offspring stamina,
a strong constitution, superb bone, courage and the ability to tackle
any task.
The Welsh Pony is blessed with a superb temperament and acknowledged
as the most beautiful
and aristocratic of all native ponies. It provides the greatest pony
outcross that the equestrian world has known.
It is therefore little wonder that the Welsh Part-Bred Pony has achieved
so much in the pony world.
Welsh Part-Breds have a minimum of 12.5% registered Welsh blood in
their parentage, which can come
from the sire, the dam, or both. For example, it can come from crossing
two ponies which each
have 12.5% Welsh blood, or from any other combination which ensures
the 12.5% minimum is met.
Welsh Part-Breds have no restriction on colour, unlike Pure-Bred Welsh
Ponies and Cobs,
where piebalds and skewbalds are debarred.

A Welsh Part-Bred horse:
- has a minimum of 12.5% registered pure Welsh blood.
- is over 14.2 h.h
- can have any colour (also piebald - skewbald)
- is eligible at any age for registration in the Welsh Pony &
Cob Society's Part-Bred Register.
