Here at the Soberton Stud we have several mares at present.

Soberton Venus

13.2hh Black Welsh Section C Mare

Sire:Maesybont Black Prince (see stallions page)

Dam:Shorelands Red Sonja

Venus was bred at the stud 12 years ago. She has been shown in-hand at national level with much success. She has als bred two foals both blue roans by Arllwyn Daffyd (see stallions page).Venus was broken to ride in the spring of 2004 by Sarah. Venus competed under saddle at local shows at the end of her first year under saddle, She was supreme ridden champion and supreme native champion on her first outing! Venus successfully competed at a variety of shows last year, including the ridden welsh C &D  class at the New Forest Show, in which she was placed 6th out of 36. An achievement that we are very proud of.Venus will be competing in ridden classes again in 2009.

Nellie

14hh Palomino and White New Forest X Arab mare.

Nellie is mum to Soberton Graffitti (see stallions page). As well as being a wonderful brood mare she has also had much success in the show ring both in-hand and under saddle with Sarah.Nellie is an eye catcher due to her unusual colour and her long floating movement. Nellie has now produced 2  very beautiful palamino and white  foal's  by Soberton Showman. In 2006 a handsome colt foal, Ringo and in 2007 a pretty palomino blagdon filly, Fizz. This year Nellie produced a pretty red and white filly by Soberton Showman.

Pentrocoed Royal Mint

Megan

Welsh Section D Bay Mare

Fronarth bred mare who was purchased 3 years ago. Since then she has been broken to ride and bred a beautiful  foal, a blue roan colt by Arllywn Daffyd. She has had a lovely bay colt foal by Arllwyn Daffyd this year, who was born on St Georges Day so is appropriatley named "George".  Megan is a very gentle and loving mare with extravagent action.

Soberton Trapeze

14.2hh Piebald Hackney x Cob

Trapeze has been successfully shown at the New Forest Show as a youngster on two occasions. Trapeze is a lively mare with bags of personality. She has bred two very beautiful and elegant foals. This years foal is by Spberton Showman and is a big skewbald filly. Trapeze is by the stallion Eaglestone Arc Royal - see below

We had the pleasure of owning Arc Royal in his retirement until recently when he had to be put to sleep.Arc Royal came to us in his  retirement after a long and successful show career. He contested and won many titles in his career, including Horse of the Year Show. We are extremely fortunate to have three off spring by Arc Royal here at the stud. Trapeze (above) and two bay pure hackney fillies. He is greatly missed.
