President’s Message<br />
Dear Fellow Members,<br />
The Festive Period has come and gone. We can<br />
now move on to giving all our attention to the<br />
upcoming Showing Season.<br />
By now you will know that it was all but impossible<br />
to continue staging our National Show at<br />
Bloemfontein. Our <strong>Society</strong> has held these<br />
Nationals on an annual basis for a good number<br />
<strong>of</strong> years. In order to ensure this continuity is<br />
main tained, the Regional Committee <strong>of</strong> the<br />
Eastern Cape <strong>of</strong>fered the Agricultural Show -<br />
grounds at Cradock as an alternative venue. This<br />
has placed an enormous workload on the limited<br />
workforce <strong>of</strong> our smallest active region.<br />
Obviously only the maximum support <strong>of</strong> our<br />
members can determine how well rewarded their<br />
efforts will be.<br />
At virtually every AGM, some member will refer<br />
to the camaraderie at Nationals which appears to<br />
have been lost over the years. The Eastern Cape<br />
Committee will make every effort to see that each<br />
day’s showing ends early enough so that all our<br />
exhibitors can enjoy the entertainment planned for<br />
the evenings from Wednesday to Saturday.<br />
In the past the AGM has been held on the<br />
evening before showing actually begins. Those<br />
who exhibit will know how critical this time is<br />

PRELIMINARY NOTICE<br />
WPCS Annual<br />
General Meeting<br />
The Annual General Meeting <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Welsh</strong><br />
<strong>Pony</strong> & <strong>Cob</strong> <strong>Society</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>South</strong> <strong>Africa</strong> will take<br />
place at 18h00 on Thursday 5th April 2012 at<br />
the Cradock Showgrounds.<br />
Items for the Agenda and Nominations for<br />
Council positions should reach the Secretary,<br />
P.O. Box 1029, Halfway House 1685 no later<br />
than 25th February 2012<br />

Raad moet die Sekretaresse, Posbus 1029,<br />

for the myriad <strong>of</strong> little things which can only be<br />
done at the last minute. In consequence, the<br />
AGM has been moved to the Thursday evening.<br />
Please attend. There are a number <strong>of</strong> important<br />
decisions to be taken, including the future <strong>of</strong><br />
Nationals. It is one <strong>of</strong> life’s great paradoxes that<br />
those members who ignore communication from<br />
Council, seem to have the most to say later, most<br />
<strong>of</strong> it negative.<br />
Despite the misgivings <strong>of</strong> one or two prophets <strong>of</strong><br />
doom, our <strong>Society</strong> is in fine shape considering<br />
these troubled times.<br />
We are looking forward to seeing as many <strong>of</strong> you<br />
as possible at Nationals and hope you enjoy your<br />
show successes and the new spirit which<br />
pervades the <strong>Welsh</strong> <strong>Pony</strong> and <strong>Cob</strong> fraternity.<br />
Best wishes for 2012 - Derek.

Height certificates<br />
In order to ensure that our <strong>Welsh</strong> <strong>Cob</strong>s and<br />
welsh ponies <strong>of</strong> <strong>Cob</strong> type are entered in the<br />
correct section <strong>of</strong> the Studbook, they are<br />
required to have an <strong>of</strong>ficial height certificate at<br />
the age <strong>of</strong> 5yrs. Copies <strong>of</strong> these certificates<br />
should be submitted to the <strong>of</strong>fice as soon as<br />
possible after the animal has reached this age.<br />
No entries will be accepted for Section C & D<br />
animals <strong>of</strong> 5yrs and older at Regional or<br />
National Championships unless a height certificate<br />
has been lodged with the Office. In order<br />
to ensure that animals are birth notified in the<br />
correct section both parents, in the case <strong>of</strong> both<br />
Section C and D animals should have a height<br />
OBITUARY<br />
Trudie Gilfillan<br />
It is with great sadness that we report the<br />
death <strong>of</strong> Trudie Gulfillan at the end <strong>of</strong><br />
October 2011. Trudie was an Honorary Life<br />
member who had served on Council on many<br />
occasions. She was a founder partner, with<br />
Jack, <strong>of</strong> the well-known Haelline Stud and<br />
will be remembered in competition for her<br />
skilled driving in the Ladies Fine Harness<br />
class among others. For many <strong>of</strong> us she was<br />
an integral part <strong>of</strong> our National<br />
Championships and it is hard to imagine the<br />
collecting ring without Trudie in control.<br />
Our deepest sympathies are extended to Jack,<br />
Spookie, Michael, Elizabeth, all the grandchildren<br />
and her many friends.<br />

STUD NEWS<br />
Paddock Hill - three years <strong>of</strong> showing!<br />
Although we did not enter Nationals in 2011 because <strong>of</strong> the country-wide<br />
<strong>Africa</strong>n Horse Sickness threat, our Stud nevertheless did very well on the<br />
Regional front in the Western and Eastern Cape. Thus at the 2011 WC<br />
Regional Championship, we took the Junior Championship and Reserve,<br />
the Senior Mare Championship and Reserve, the Senior Stallion<br />
Championship and the Supreme Championship - a "full-house" for us so<br />
to speak. At the 2011 EC Regional Championship, we again won the<br />
Junior Championship, the Senior Mare Championnship and Reserve. We<br />
were placed Reserve Supreme, our mare standing down to a very flashy red-roan stallion.<br />
The end <strong>of</strong> 2011 marks three successive years <strong>of</strong> showing for us. During this relatively short period<br />
we won the SA Junior championship on the two occasions we entered Nationals. At Regional<br />
level, in the WC (Robertson) and EC (Cradock) and in Heidelburg, we have captured the Junior<br />
Championship consecutively at each show over the three years <strong>of</strong> our showing. Our eldest mare<br />
has taken the Senior Mare championship on each <strong>of</strong> the 4 occasions in which she has competed in<br />
this category. Between them our ponies have won 4 Supreme Championships and three Reserve<br />
Supreme Championships. In the three years they have taken 2 Purebred Supreme Championships.<br />
Our senior mare qualified for<br />
the Legion <strong>of</strong> Merit in 2010<br />
and in 2011.<br />
Our show team consisted <strong>of</strong> :<br />

Dimmock Dragonfly<br />
The arrivals <strong>of</strong> Dragonfly’s “Christmas Crop”<br />
this year made for a very exciting time indeed.<br />
Proud owners are Ken and Lynn Twort, the<br />
Bechards,and the Cocksedge family and three<br />
for Lynn and Claire Owen <strong>of</strong> Silkwoods Stud<br />
in Hilton.<br />
Dams are two TBs, two Partbred <strong>Welsh</strong> show<br />
ponies by Bumble Bee (Waterside Sunrise out<br />
<strong>of</strong> Lady Art, Twicker’s dam, and Jebel Miss<br />
Dior), a charming coloured cob called Jigsaw<br />
and a Boerperd/Arab ex eventing pony.<br />
The foals are beautiful, have exceeded all<br />
expectations, are show quality and very<br />
friendly. They are all in Hilton or Nottingham<br />
Road/Rosetta where I go to visit Dragonfly<br />
almost every week. They are glorious colours,<br />
cream, coloured, grey, bay (all fillies) and two<br />
chestnut colts. Now we are waiting for Grant<br />
and Carla Langley's mare Foresyte Forest Fire<br />
and the last foal this year will be down in the<br />
Cape.from Catherine Anderson’s a TB mare.
S A SPRING SHOW 2011<br />
Judges Report<br />
I would like to thanks Sue and all her hard working committee<br />
for inviting me to judge the <strong>Welsh</strong> classes at the Spring Show<br />
2011.<br />
Early on Saturday morning I was collected by Mike Bernstein<br />
and driven to the show ground at Pretoria. On arrival I was<br />
introduced to Terence Jägers a probation judge for the <strong>Welsh</strong><br />
classes.<br />
The Part Bred classes were first in the ring; although the classes<br />
were small in numbers due to the other shows in the area some<br />
very nice ponies came forward for their respective classes.<br />
A very nice <strong>Welsh</strong> type chestnut filly, Dibynn Chit Chat, owned<br />
by Dibynn Stud and shown by Di Nicholson stood out and took<br />
the Championship from the Stallion, Bronwydd Bannut<br />
Laburnum, who unfortunately did not show himself <strong>of</strong>f to his full<br />
potential. Laburnum is owned by Sue Dittmann and shown by<br />
Muiren Kok,<br />
Section A classes followed on with a good moving chestnut colt<br />
Tipuana Flamboyant, owned by Tipuana Stud and shown by<br />
Digby Donaldson taking the Junior Championship. The senior<br />
classes concluded with the stallions, Gwyddls Dante and<br />
Caernafon Tabutanna Dunkid, both owned by Wehlia De Villiers<br />
and shown by Johannes Mbewe and Jeremiah Klaas, standing<br />
champion and reserve from the juniors.<br />
Section B had very little support with the mare Meifod Highland<br />
Fling being champion and the stallion Meifod Bellissimo reserve.<br />
Both ponies are owned by Sharon Ralston and were shown by<br />
Kiven.<br />
In the Section C classes a free moving stallion Freyja Taliesin,<br />
owned by Rene Le Roux and shown by Wilton Nkomo stood<br />
champion with the mare Cavallito Hawaiin Sunset, owned by<br />
Claudette Vianello reserve.<br />
In the Section D classes some nice junior cobs came forward with<br />
the 3 year old filly Llandilo Princess Royal, owned by Tipuana<br />
Stud and shown by Digby Donaldson taking the junior championship<br />
and the yearling Cavallito Allanay , owned by Rene Le<br />
Roux and shown by James, reserve. The two senior mares<br />
Bukkenburg Gwenllan, owned by Rene Le Roux and shown by<br />
Wilton Nkomo, and Bukkenburg Gwendline, owned by Siobahn<br />
Ralston, took the championship and reserve respectively.<br />
The gelding class a good type <strong>of</strong> cob stood out: Freyja Victor<br />
Bach, owned by Rene Le Roux and shown by Wilton Nkomo<br />
10<br />
headed the class to take the Championship with a Section A,<br />
Meifod Maistro, owned by Sharon Ralston and shown by Kiven,<br />
reserve.<br />
Sunday, Performance Day, commenced with the First Ridden a<br />
very well ridden pony Tipuana Eros, owned by Roly Stud and<br />
shown by Trentin Varrall took the first place. The leading rein<br />
was a lovely little pony, Dunkid St Peter that went well for the<br />
small rider, Daniella Strauss. Some well schooled Partbred<br />
ponies came forward giving a smooth ride to their riders.<br />
The Championships were co judged with a very nice lady, Shirley<br />
Sadleir; both Shirley and I agreed on the Champions and<br />
Reserves. Champion Purebred Young Child’s <strong>Pony</strong> was Tipuana<br />
Eros ridden by Trentin Varrall and Reserve was Hydown Olympic<br />
Sportsman ridden by Tyrique Varrall. Champion Partbred Young<br />
Child’s <strong>Pony</strong> was Foresyte Michaelangelo, owned by Ainsley<br />
Bailey and ridden by Elena De Abreu and Reserve was Golden<br />
Nugget owned and shown by Hannah Boulle.<br />
The Pure Breed Ridden classes followed on with a Section A Blom<br />
Stardust owned by Kaylin Jacobs and ridden by Imke Schamrel<br />
Champion and the Section D Freyja Victor Bach, owned and ridden<br />
by Rene Le Roux Reserve Champion; both the pony and the<br />
cob performed very well in their classes.<br />
To conclude the ridden section the large Part Bred Show Riding<br />
class was won by a very nice type <strong>of</strong> horse, Foresyte<br />
Michaelangelo, owned and shown by Ainsley Bailey, well produced<br />
and ridden with the second in the class, Drummore<br />
Picadilly, owned and shown by Kiara Joelson, going on to stand<br />
Champion and Reserve respectively.<br />
The Child and Junior handler classes were closely contested with<br />
Tayla Shipper winning the child handler and Kiara Joelson the<br />
junior handler.<br />
I would like to thank Sue, Mike, Lyn and Roger <strong>of</strong> the Roly Stud<br />
for their kindness, hospitality, looking after me so well and<br />
showing me some <strong>of</strong> the lovely country side and studs in the<br />
area.<br />
I hope your <strong>Welsh</strong> Ponies and <strong>Cob</strong>s go from strength to strength<br />
in <strong>South</strong> <strong>Africa</strong> and once again many thanks to you all.<br />
