Tryfel Stud

Quality Welsh Mountain Ponies

Small and select breeders of quality Welsh mountain ponies

Welcome to Tryfel Stud website. This is our update that covers 2006 show season and our foals for 2007.  We had a great show season but with everything good comes something bad and unfortunately ours happened before Christmas 2006.  We had Sprig put to sleep, this was a sad time for all of us.  He's left a big gap in our hearts and at our stud.  We hope you enjoy looking at our updates.  

WE HAVE A SELECTION OF FOALS AND YOUNG STOCK FOR SALE THIS SEASON.

Ty'r Capel Sprig

 

 

 

We are a small stud breeding Welsh Mountain Ponies.  We purchased Ty'r Capel Sprig in 1987 from Mostyn Isaac.  Sprig was our Stallion for many years leaving us some fabulous stock over the last 19 years.  Sprig won many prizes in both youngstock classes and as a stallion but it is his stock that proved who he was.  Sprig won the overall sire rating Stallion at the Royal Welsh in 2004 and this was a real highlight for us as a small stud.  We also purchased Ty'r Capel Sara two years later and from FairOaks sale Vaynor Perpetual.  These three ponies had been the backbone of our stud for nearly 20 years.

At Glanusk Open day 2006 Bridie won the younghandlers section winning The Windswept Trophy which was kindly donated in the memory of the late Emrys Griffiths and Dinah Griffiths of the Revel Stud.  Michael was not left out of the day as he was asked to give a demonstration to the younghandlers with commentary from Mr. Ifor Lloyd.

We are normally known for our Welsh Mountain Ponies but this year we have something different.  We have our first section "C" foal.  This is Monaray May Queen with her colt foal Tryfel Prince Charming. 

 

 

 

We also have Welsh Mountain Pony foals this year.  This is Bethan with her colt foal Carlos.  Bethan was made into a film star last year when we were asked to take her to the Boomerang studios in Cardiff.  There she was photographed and filmed and now you can see her on the billboards at the Royal Welsh showground and also in the titles for the coverage for the Royal Welsh and Winter Fair.

We had a great show season in 2006 and also now at the beginning of 2007.  The highs for 2006 was winning the Royal Welsh with Veronica Laytons Parvadean Denise and winning Veronica a Gold medal.  For our own ponies Bethan winning a  Bronze medal.  We also showed Dion who was 2nd at the Rhydespence final in Shewsbury.  Michael also had a very good season with his ponies Dynamite winning both a Bronze and Silver medal.  Monaray May Queen, his Section C mare also winning Bronze and Silver medals and also 2nd at the Royal Welsh.  Bridie has also gained in confidence and experience under saddle with her pony Arrow  winning performance medals again in 2006.   

We would like to thank Cheryl Pearce who has provided most of our recent photographs to update our site.  

We hope you enjoy looking at our ponies as much as we enjoy owning them.
