           TEAPOT

Kevin was born in March 2012, his dad was Pearly Prince born here and shown below and his mum was Visa who  we bought at eighteen months. She is half TB half KWPN but still only about 15hh. I really like her, having just broken her as a 3yo.
Visa is really a sensible girl who has an old head on young shoulders and I like her attitude to life. Hopfully this bodes well for Kevin, as his dad Monty has his head screwed on the right way too. So far he seems a friendly sort of creature as you can see!

 Peggle was born in March 2011. She's  a very pretty little madam and moves like a true show pony, as she should given her bloodlines. Her mum is Cotswold River Pearl and unsurprisingly her dad is Blackjack (both shown below). These  two both have hugely successful show ponies in their dam lines.

 Unfortunately I couldn't use my prefix on Peggle as the french only use siffixes as the foals are all supposed to have names that begin with a certain letter for each year. I didn't know about all this for Monty so he dipped out on getting a passport which would allow him to enter the concours d'elevage in France. I was determined not to make the same mistake again.

Peggy is no longer just a pretty face, please check out her progress on the way to becoming a handy pony;

Monty born in 2009 was our trailblazer, our first foal in France and bear the Wychwell prefix. His mum is Cotswold River Pearl.

  His dad is Denys de la mer, out of a french mare by Demonstrator, both homebred by my mother at Cotswold Manor Stud. He is the apple of my eye and a real terror, I can't wait to start doing things with him.( I think in France I will be able to start his eventing as there is a section for adults to compete ponies.)

Pearl is pregnant here, we hope, in foal to Blackjack.

She is out of a show pony mare by an anglo arab. I broke her when she was three and rode her for a little while, she'd be a little rusty now but she has a great jump and carries weight no problem.

She is a tough little mare and has borne my mum some cracking foals. I have always had a soft spot for her. I hope she breeds us a few more Montys, hopefully in filly format!
