Part Bred Welsh: A SpaceForHorses network
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.
You never outgrow a Welsh Part-Bred Pony for pleasure, fun and competition! Welsh Part-Bred horses are increasingly in evidence in every aspect of equestrian sport such as dressage, showjumping, driving, eventing and in the show ring.
