Evans Cadfael 2006 Section B Welsh Colt
Lovely Section B colt sired by our Champion Stallion *Morton's The Celebrity and out of our outstanding producing mare, Lane's Cherry Jubilee. Quality colt with a lovely pedigree and great looks that will take him far!

Congratulations to M. Sparkes and D. Bergeron on the investment purchase of Evans Cadfael aka "J.J."  Evans Cadfael took Reserve Best Pony in Jacksonville his first time out at 14 months. Sparkes and Bergeron plan to let him grow up a little before the final decision will be made for his future. We wish them all the best in the upcoming show year as he will be campaigned on the USEF "A" circuit in Zone 4.

Thank you Amendolara Family!
We are so pleased that YOU are pleased with your Evans Pony.

"We bought Evans Dark Pleasure (Bristol Victorio x Lane's Peach Blossom) from the Watt's family in Lebanon, OR about  9 months ago.  We absolutely ADORE her!  My daughter (9yrs old) started her under saddle, and has been very successfully showing her in hunter schooling shows and 4H shows.  She loves to go trailriding and is up for just about anything that my daughter wants her to do.  She literally cannot walk past someone without a nice compliment!  Her temperment is flawless, and her athleticism and beauty are only icing on the cake!  We would love to visit your farm someday.  We'll definitely visit when we're in the market for another pony!"

"And while I'm bragging about our beloved little "Fergie" (that's what we call her), I wanted to tell you about the first show that we took her to.  She had only been under saddle for about two months (she never offered to buck by the way...) and we took her to an open show at our local fairgrounds.  We weren't expecting anything of her, but thought that the exposure to a show would be a good thing.  My daughter's trainer took her in a halter class strictly to let her look at the ring.  It was a class of 17 mares (all horses) and she won the class!  She came back to the championship class and won Champion Halter for the whole show! As a testament to her temperment, I let my 5 yr old (very green) daughter ride her in a leadline class that day and she behaved perfectly.  She has since earned two more Championships in Hunter shows.  And we honestly get "most beautiful pony ever" comments from everyone including judges to trainers to our vet, and lots of little girls!"

Fernview Tobias
2006 black dun

*Wedderlie Maradonna x Whispering Almond is a tall elegant colt with an amazing front end.  His neck is swan-like in it's length and shape.  We had sold Almond in foal to Sally Meohring of Cottage Farm in Florida.  When we lost Maradonna, Sally agreed to sell Almond and her son back to us.  For that we are very grateful.  Tobias will mature well over 13hh.  We believe he has the quality to be an important sire.  We believe he will produce a lot of color for us also.

Evans Royalist

*Kenwood Royal Charter x *Morton's Camilia by *Stockham Commander
This is a pedigree to die for and this colt looks every inch the champion. Our fist foal by European Ch. *Kenwood Royal Charter and out of multiple Halter Ch. Morton's Camillia, it would be difficult to match this pedigree anywhere in the world today. Royalist has his sire's fantastic neck and a heart stopping trot. Look at the pedigree, look at the photos - - Wow!! Royalist should mature a mid-sized medium.

CONGRATULATIONS to Sue and Kym Shingleton of Penley and Penrhys Pony Studs in Western Australia who have, in partnership, purchased Evans Royalist to be their main Welsh B stallion.  He will be used to cover their 16 Welsh B mares that have been bred through Nattai, Downland and Weston bloodlines.  They believe that the introduction of the Kenwood, Keston, Cottrell and Morton's bloodlines will allow them to continue to breed beautiful and athletic ponies that have exceptional temperaments.
