(Shenandoah Gamekeeper x Farnley Flying Titania (Farnley Lustre)) 2001 Welsh grey mare. Stands at about 12.1 now and will mature to be a top-end small. Great granddaughter of Farnley Lustre and daughter of legendary Shenandoah Gamekeeper, Sprite is a delicate mare with a super-sweet temperament. She is tremendously willing and incredibly athletic. She has the beautiful, flat-kneed movement so characteristic of Gamekeeper/Lustre babies. She has had ample schooling in basic dressage and is beginning leg yields. She will go in either a collected, dressage frame or in a loose, hunter frame.
NEWSFLASH: Sprite won Champion September 25th 2006 at her debut show, going gorgeous in her flat and overfences class in Adult Equitation.
She did blue ribbon flatwork, blue ribbon form over unfamiliar/never before seen walls, coups and rails and swapped her leads.
Sprite has also done event courses, including jumping trees, water obstacles, ditches, and stone walls--all done with confidence and without balking or hesitation. She'll jump anything you put her to as was demonstrated in her wins. She's also been ridden extensively on trails and in open fields bareback with simply a halter and lead, and she's very responsible and sweet. She will dominate any discipline, be it hunter, dressage, eventing, or simply an all-around versatile children's pony. $15,000 or private treaty lease. Downloadable videos of Sea Sprite are available to view by clicking on the photo below to go the Pony Theatre

(Shenandoah Gamekeeper x Flying Isabeau) 1995 12.2 Half-Welsh dark bay gelding. Very elegant, big-bodied gelding with a sweet, in-your-pocket temperament. Ollie has had significant dressage training, readily does leg yields, and will go in either a collected or loose, hunter frame.
SOLD
He does walk/trot/canter ringwork nicely, is quiet over fences, and has been trail ridden extensively. Ollie also is quiet to ride bareback or with just a halter and leadline, and he loves to be ridden into the pond sometimes to go swimming! He has also been schooled over event courses, including jumping trees, water obstacles, ditches, and stone walls. He willingly does it all! This summer, his stellar undersaddle performance at his first show earned him Champion under an USEF R-rated judge! He has been ridden and handled extensively by toddlers and children as young at 3. He is currently being used as a walk/trot leadline pony for one of our beginner students (a four-year old girl). He is very patient and responsible with her through everything she wants to do with him. She especially loves practicing climbing on and off of Ollie, and he is very calm as she sometimes uses him as a jungle gym. SOLD.

(Shenandoah Gamekeeper x Severn Merrily) 1996 Grey Welsh gelding. Nephew of Legion of Merit winner Severn Gambol, Wink has the exact same athleticism and temperament of both his uncle and his father (Gamekeeper).
Superb movement and way of going. Wink has the presence and pizzazz of a miniature Andalusian, but he is still a great, quiet caretaker for children. He's been schooled in dressage and stylishly does walk/trot/canter flatwork and hunt courses complete with changes.
Wink has the unique quality of adjusting to the riding ability of his rider, so he's truly suitable for any level of rider--from beginner all the way to advanced. He's quiet on trails, and he loves being ridden bareback. He has been schooled over event courses, including trees, water obstacles, ditches, and stone walls, never balking at any. He has been handled and ridden extensively by toddlers and children as young as 2, and he is responsible with everyone. To see video of Wink with his favorite rider (Makayla), go to the Pony Theatre page. Wink is truly a pocket pony, and has an excellent temperament combined with flawless conformation and way of going. Wink is the picture of the ideal Welsh Pony of the mountain type in conformation, movement, and temperament. Wink has the temperament, conformation, and athletic ability to do anything from leadline to pony jumpers, so look for him in the show ring next summer! $20,000
