What *Wedderlie Mardi Gras LOM has to offer your mare:
TYPE
- Exquisite true Welsh type.
Mardi Gras foals are unmistakable, as they consistently
have the strong look of their sire.
TEMPERAMENT
- Kind disposition, with
loads of personality and presence. Excellent
trainability and willingness to learn. Very people
oriented, with the kind of disposition that is easy to
live with.
CONFORMATION
- Mardi Gras has a
beautiful, well shaped head, large eyes and tiny ears.
Long, well shaped neck, clean throatlatch Short back,
strong loin, exceptional hip. Sound, correct
limbs, with plenty of short, quality bone.
Excellent feet. What you see with Mardi Gras is all
natural, the result of quality breeding, excellent
nutrition and care.
MOVEMENT-
Breathtaking natural
movement, extremely free and straight, from the
shoulder with a long, flat kneed, reaching stride. Good
walk, exceptional trot and beautiful canter. His
movement has never been "enhanced" with gimmicks,
shoeing or "creative" hoof trimming by leaving his toes
long. Because his movement is natural, it is passed on
consistently to his foals.
SHOW RECORD
- CONSISTENT and PROVEN!
Mardi Gras has more than proven himself in the show
ring, winning Champion at the Royal Welsh, the largest
Welsh Pony show in the world, as well as winning
National Champion (National High Score winner) twice in
the USA. He is a many, many time Grand and Supreme
Champion. Championships won in the USA number over 100
through the 2007 show season, winning 46 championships
in 2007 alone! He is extremely consistent in the show
ring, winning over and over again against top
competition, under a wide variety of judges. Performance
championships in Hunters and Ridden Pony. WPCSA points
in: English Pleasure, Hunters, Long Stirrup, Carriage
Driving, Pleasure Driving, Western Pleasure and Trail.
In 2007, Mardi Gras
accumulated MORE breeding points than ANY other National
Champion Section B pony!
PEDIGREE
-
Carrying the best of Eyarth,
Boston and Wedderlie bloodlines, his pedigree is well
respected around the world and is proven to pass on
quality.
IMPROVEMENT
Mardi Gras has over 100
foals on the ground, consisting of both purebred and
crossbred foals. He is proving himself to be an
exceptional improvement sire for virtually all types of
mares.
SOUNDNESS
-
Mardi Gras is both mentally and
physically sound. He has never had any health or
soundness issues throughout his life. He is a very
kind pony, and is extremely easy to live with -- a
quality we value very highly in a breeding stallion!
CONSISTENCY
- If you fall in love with
Mardi Gras, you WILL fall in love with his foals! He is
an extremely consistent and prepotent sire -- strongly
stamping his unique type on his foals from many
different breeds of mares.
ALL NATURAL
- What you see is what
you get! If you look at Mardi Gras and like what you
see, you are seeing the results of years of selective
breeding for quality. He is not the result of a sweated
neck, gimmicked movement or drugs to enhance his looks.
Quality is passed on genetically -- those other
things are not. We believe in QUALITY -- quality
genetics beget
quality foals!!! And his foals speak volumes for the
quality of their sire!
We invite you to choose Mardi Gras for the foal of a
lifetime!!!
