Horsesickness restrictions announced<br />
1ST APRIL 2009. In a press release today, the Minister <strong>of</strong> Agriculture in the Western Cape,<br />
<strong>Cob</strong>us Dowry, announced restrictions on horse movements into the Western Cape due to<br />
outbreaks <strong>of</strong> <strong>Africa</strong>n Horse Sickness throughout the rest <strong>of</strong> <strong>South</strong> <strong>Africa</strong>.<br />
The Chief Directorate <strong>of</strong> Veterinary Services in the Western Cape has announced that a restriction<br />
will be placed on all horse movements to the Western Cape <strong>Africa</strong>n Horse Sickness control<br />
area from all other provinces, with immediate effect.<br />
These restrictions have been instituted due to the increasing number <strong>of</strong> reported and suspicious<br />
cases <strong>of</strong> AHS in the rest <strong>of</strong> <strong>South</strong> <strong>Africa</strong>. Horse owners are thus strongly discouraged<br />
from attempting to move horses from anywhere in the infected zone into the Western Cape<br />
control area as the risk <strong>of</strong> transmitting the disease is increasing daily. An outbreak in the AHS<br />
control area can potentially result in the death <strong>of</strong> many horses as well as place our export status<br />
in jeopardy, possibly leading to a 2 year ban by the EU and causing major financial and<br />
physical losses to the equine industry as a whole.<br />
This means that all horses from the Western Cape protocol area intending to return from<br />
Bloemfontein would have to spend three weeks in quarantine in Beaufort West at about R60<br />
per day, and after the period would have to be collected as a separate trip, adding some R4000<br />
to the trip from up north. This will affect ponies coming to Nationals from that area which<br />
covers an arc from Morreesburg to Swellendam.<br />
Welcome to our overseas judge for Nationals<br />
Mr Cemaes Evans <strong>of</strong> Cathedine Stud has<br />
accepted an invitation to judge at the 2009<br />
National Show in Bloemfontein. The following<br />
history <strong>of</strong> the Stud is taken from The <strong>Welsh</strong><br />
<strong>Cob</strong> by Dr. Wynne Davies (J.A. Allen 1998).<br />
Cathedine Stud<br />
Cathedine Stud was started in 1941 when Mr<br />
Tom Evans bought the chestnut <strong>Cob</strong> filly<br />
Victory Maid for £8. In 1949 he bred Princess<br />
out <strong>of</strong> Victory Maid and she went on to win<br />
both the George Prince <strong>of</strong> Wales Cup and the<br />
ridden <strong>Welsh</strong> <strong>Cob</strong> class at the Aberystwyth<br />
Royal <strong>Welsh</strong> Show in 1957, the only mare ever<br />
to have won both. The Cathedine Prefix which<br />
had been registered by 1954 was adopted<br />
from the farm in Bwlch Brecon where the<br />
family have lived for almost 100 years. The<br />
Cathedine Stud has had a great influence on<br />
many studs throughout Britain, including the<br />
Ebbw Stud where Cathedine Pride II was the<br />
dam <strong>of</strong> a string <strong>of</strong> champions including the<br />
famous Ebbw Victor. (Information from The<br />
<strong>Welsh</strong> <strong>Cob</strong>, Dr. Wynne Davies, J.A. Allen 1998)

Council Matters<br />
Transparency and democracy has become the<br />
order <strong>of</strong> the day in all spheres and it is Council’s<br />
desire to involve all the members in as many<br />
ways as possible. It was decided at the last<br />
Council Meeting to make all correspondence<br />
open to all so that the members are fully aware<br />
<strong>of</strong> what is happening within the society.<br />
Listed below are e-mails received by Council or<br />
the Secretary since 1 May 2008<br />
From Paul Carstens:<br />
Hi Sue<br />
Hiermee dien ek my bedanking as Raadslid en<br />
Vise President van WPCS in met onmiddellike<br />
inwerkingtreding. Ek wil graag die Raad en<br />
WPCS bedank vir die voorreg en geleenthede<br />
wat ek gehad om op die Raad te dien. Glo my<br />
dit was nie ‘n maklike besluit om iets op te gee<br />
wat naby my hart le nie, al die laagtepunte en<br />
hoogtepunte waardeur ons deur die jare gestoei<br />
het nie.<br />
Soms moet ‘n persoon ‘n besluit neem wat jou<br />
lewe net rustiger maak, geleenthede wat opduik<br />
wat jy met albei hande moet aangryp, aandag<br />
gee aan jou gesin en net jou ponies weer kan<br />
geniet. PAJAYHU WALLIESE PONIES gaan voort<br />
in al sy glorie en ek wil net graag weer my<br />
skoue begin geniet.<br />
Ek het alreeds my Komiteelede ingelig oor my<br />
besluit en dit sal my laaste vergadering wees as<br />
Voorsitter van die WESKAAP.<br />
Nogmaals baie dankie en ek sal die uitstappies<br />
na Bloemfontein mis.<br />
Vriendelike Ponie groete, Paul<br />
From Roleen Carstens:<br />

Hereby I would like to notify Council <strong>of</strong> my resignation<br />

immediate effect. I have decided to study further<br />

Staten Might<br />
(Clyndo Elegant - Dawray Melita)<br />
12 September 1996 - 16 Mei 2008<br />
Our sympathy to Yvonne Lubbe on the loss <strong>of</strong><br />
her lovely stallion, Staten Might.<br />
The following was received from the Botha family<br />
who stabled and showed the well known<br />
pony:<br />
In die ponie bedryf is dit seker een van die groot<br />
name wat daar op<br />
die muur van prestasies in die Bill Sieberhage saal by die skougronde in Bloemfontein geskryf staan.<br />
Twee keer SA Groot Kampioen enkeltuig met die SA Kampioenskappe in Bloemfontein. Hy is in die<br />
fleur van sy lewe van ons af weggeneem. Baie mense het vir Mighty soos almal hom geken het<br />
geken.<br />
Iemand het daardie aand na sy dood vir my gesê Mighty was net ‘n<br />
legende. Hy was die hings met die mooiste temperament . ‘n Kind van 8jaar kon met hom werk tot ‘<br />
n volwassene. Waaroor ek baie spyt is is dat hy nooit gebruik is nie. Net 2 lewende vullens van hom<br />
leef. Staten Bismark nou ‘n reun en uitstaande ry perd, en my eie perd Cracker Jack. Cracker Jack is<br />
nog jonk maar ons glo dat hy in sy pa se voetspore sal volg.<br />
Mighty is aan ‘n baie seldsame siekte dood Akute Emperokolitus. Dit<br />
was ‘n ontsettende skok vir ons as Botha familie.<br />
Ons wil net aan al ons perde vriende vir die telefoon oproepe en<br />
S.M.S.e wat ons ontvang het baie dankie sê ons waardeer dit baie. Al wat nou oorbly is mooi foto’s<br />
,rosette,medaljes en ‘n groot gemis want ons Groot Kanon is nie meer daar nie.<br />
Die Botha Familie, Zewitco Stoet, Jagersfontein<br />
ties (managing the Division) at work also it will<br />
not be possible for me to go on being the secretary,<br />
regional administrator and Council member.<br />
I had to make a decision to pull in some<br />
things just to keep afloat and recent incidents<br />
just made it easier to decide. I will not be<br />
available for the Regional committee anymore.<br />
We will vote for a new committee on the 2nd<br />
<strong>of</strong> October when we have our AGM at<br />
Robertson.<br />
I want to thank Council and yourself for all you<br />
did and still do to keep the <strong>Society</strong> running.<br />
From Derek Kohler:<br />
Hello Sue,<br />
Thank you for the summation <strong>of</strong> the advantages<br />
and disadvantages <strong>of</strong> the National<br />
Champs in Cradock.<br />
Just to clarify some <strong>of</strong> the list <strong>of</strong> disadvantages :<br />
3<br />
1.The Cradock venue would be available for at<br />
least the next 10 years if required.<br />
2.Other regions are welcome to “tender” for the<br />
New WPCS logo<br />
items available<br />
Kids’ T shirts: R40 (variety <strong>of</strong> colours,<br />
sizes from XXS to XXL)<br />
Adult Golf Shirts: R50 (S,M,L,XL, white,<br />
navy & black)<br />
Kids’ Caps: R25<br />
Adult Caps: R30<br />
All Items can be ordered from<br />
the Secretary’s Office
privilege <strong>of</strong> running the National Show if they<br />
have the equivalent facilities.<br />
3. While our show society is not in a position to<br />
pay a R5000 levy, Cradock would most assuredly<br />
not make any charge to the <strong>Society</strong> for the<br />
use <strong>of</strong> the Showgrounds and all the accompanying<br />
facilities.<br />
4. At the recent Regional Champs both sets <strong>of</strong><br />
stands were packed with spectators, particularly<br />
on the Friday and the Saturday. This could well<br />
be because there is very little alternative entertainment<br />
for the people <strong>of</strong> Cradock. Local interest<br />
was such that parking on the showground<br />
had to be reserved for <strong>of</strong>ficials and competitors<br />
only. The street outside the showgrounds was<br />
parked solid on both sides <strong>of</strong> the road for some<br />
distance.<br />
Incidently, the <strong>Welsh</strong> team <strong>of</strong> 8 was universally<br />
accepted as the highlight <strong>of</strong> the show.<br />
5. There was, in fact, a small funfair available to<br />
the children.<br />
Queries :<br />
Entries at Nationals have averaged 180 ponies<br />
over the last 5 years.<br />
The Cradock showgrounds has 230 stables <strong>of</strong> at<br />
least equal quality to those at Bloem.<br />
There are 2 camping sites including reasonable<br />
ablution facilities on the showgrounds and<br />
4<br />
competitors would be welcome to camp in any<br />
<strong>of</strong> the spare stables.<br />
There are 2 good PA systems available for the 2<br />
showrings and a PA system for the collecting<br />
ring steward.<br />
At all Cradock shows there is adequate clean<br />
fresh bedding for each stable. Dirty bedding will<br />
be removed daily at no charge to the <strong>Society</strong>.<br />
All the ablution blocks and toilet facilities are<br />
totally closed in between shows. The show society<br />
re-opens, checks and cleans these before<br />
the shows at no cost to the <strong>Welsh</strong> <strong>Pony</strong> <strong>Society</strong>.<br />
What limited security is required at the showgrounds<br />
is provided for by the Cradock show<br />
society.<br />
In one <strong>of</strong> the stands, alongside the main arena,<br />
a local church group runs the kitchen providing<br />
cooldrinks and basic foodstuffs throughout the<br />
show (quality good). There is also a full-time<br />
bar at the other end <strong>of</strong> the stand. Within 1km<br />
<strong>of</strong> the showgrounds there is both a Steers and a<br />
Kentucky Fried Chicken. Other restaurants are<br />
also within easy reach <strong>of</strong> the showgrounds.<br />
Regarding the dates on which the show will be<br />
staged, we are merely <strong>of</strong>fering an alternative<br />
venue at whatever date Council decides is best.<br />
We trust that he organization <strong>of</strong> this event will<br />
be handled by the designated Council member<br />
and that our role would purely be one <strong>of</strong> support.<br />
If you have any further queries, please do not<br />
hesitate to contact us immediately and please<br />
be assured <strong>of</strong> our fullest support for the<br />
Nationals watever Council decides.<br />
Kind regards, Derek.<br />
From Gustav Karlsson (in reply to Secretary’s<br />
comments on the proposal re election <strong>of</strong><br />
Regional Council members):<br />
Hi Sue<br />
There is to be no debate at the AGM. At the last<br />
AGM the principles were established and I expect<br />
that by the next AGM the new system will have<br />
been implemented and the new councillors elected.<br />
What problems do you have with the wording<br />
as it is quite clear and in line with the proposal<br />
which was passed unanimously at the AGM. So<br />
what are your concerns which you refer to?
You certainly did not mention any concerns<br />
when the resolution was passed.<br />
It looks as if those in Council are hell bent on<br />
delaying this election to stay in power for as<br />
long as possible (Mugabe syndrome?) and<br />
members are fed-up with this current council<br />
and wish for their council to be democratically<br />
elected.<br />
Could you please send me the draft minutes <strong>of</strong><br />
the AGM so that I can ensure that you have<br />
correctly recorded the resolution taken.<br />
To answer your questions<br />
Yes, Yes, you can send this e-mail to your<br />
beloved president and fellow non-democratically<br />
elected members.<br />
Regards, Gustav<br />
Original Message —<br />
From: “Sue Cook”<br />
Subject: Re: WPCS Constitution<br />
Hi Gustav<br />
I’ve gone through your proposal and just require<br />
clarity on two points.<br />
9.2.3 I assume the nomination form requires signatures<br />
by two members in addition to the nominee.<br />
The synopsis is presumably <strong>of</strong> qualification/experience<br />
rather than personal details.<br />
9.2.12 I presume new nominations forms will<br />
only be sent to the Regions that lack the requisite<br />
number <strong>of</strong> members? What happens if no<br />
nominations have been received from a Region<br />
in the required time?<br />
I have a couple <strong>of</strong> concerns about the proposal<br />
but those are for debate at the AGM.<br />
I will send your proposal to Council with the<br />
Agenda for discussion at our meeting.<br />
Regards, Sue<br />
From: Viv Van Den Bergh<br />
Hi Sue<br />
Please accept my resignation from the Council.<br />
As much as I would like to do my bit for<br />
WP&CS I cannot be doing with this petty<br />
kindergarten politics from Gustav.<br />
I shall do my bit on the sidelines.<br />
Thanks, Viv<br />

The Ten Showing<br />
Commandments<br />
These are reproduced at the specific<br />
request <strong>of</strong> TWO international judges<br />

<strong>Africa</strong>!<br />
1. Thou shalt not overtake another<br />
competitor on the inside when passing<br />
the judge.<br />
2. Thou shalt not steal another’s place in<br />
the line up under the pretext “I thought<br />
it was me they were calling in”.<br />
3. Thou shalt not allow thy groom into<br />
the ring in scruffy clothes and not<br />
wearing a hat.<br />
4. Thou shalt not allow thy groom to<br />
bring the contents <strong>of</strong> the lorry into the<br />
ring.<br />
5. Thou shalt not be unpleasant or rude to<br />
a steward, thy groom or thy mother<br />
who has been up since 4am plaiting<br />
and driving.<br />
6. Thou shalt ignore persons outside the<br />
ring <strong>of</strong>fering verbal assistance whilst<br />
you are in the ring.<br />
7. Thou shalt never leave the ring without<br />
first seeking the judge’s permission.<br />

pleasant to the judge, even if thou<br />
thinkest “blind old bat” or “silly old<br />
trout”.<br />
9. Thou shalt smile and say “thank you”<br />
when handed your rosette, even if<br />
thou disagree with the result<br />
10. Thou shall turn up for Championships,<br />
parades and prizegivings if required,<br />
even if it is a long way home or thou<br />
want to change.
And you think we have problems!<br />
Poop predicament has horse<br />
owners raising a stink<br />
The poop hit the fan when the last manure<br />
mulcher in Los Angeles closed shop. The price <strong>of</strong><br />
poop disposal is breaking the budgets <strong>of</strong> Los<br />
Angeles horse owners, as stable owners pass<br />
along the expense <strong>of</strong> taking horse droppings to<br />
landfills.<br />
"The cost to get rid <strong>of</strong> this stuff has just skyrocketed,"<br />
says Royan Herman, who runs the Peacock<br />
Hill and J-Bar Ranch stables in the San Fernando<br />
Valley with her husband, Mark.<br />
Los Angeles is home to about 10 000 horses, says<br />
city councillor Wendy Greuel, although some<br />
estimates <strong>of</strong> the horse population run as high as<br />
20 000 within city limits and 45 000 in all <strong>of</strong> Los<br />
Angeles County.<br />
The waste produced by horses living in a big city<br />
was not a problem for decades, as nurseries and<br />
compost yards accepted manure and turned it<br />
into fertiliser. But when zoning <strong>of</strong>ficials allowed<br />
developers to build homes close to those sites,<br />
new residents complained <strong>of</strong> the stench and<br />
nurseries began turning away the dung.<br />
Depositing manure at a landfill costs up to $47<br />
(R362) a ton, five times what the mulchers<br />
charge, says Mark Herman. Stable owners can't<br />
afford to stay in business unless they pass that<br />
expense to boarders, he says. The 120 horses at<br />
his stables produced as much as 4.5 tons <strong>of</strong><br />
manure a day.<br />
Horses generate an estimated $900 million in<br />
ancillary revenues a year, according to local resident<br />
Fritz Bronner, sustaining riding teachers, veterinarians,<br />
blacksmiths, and feed and tack stores.<br />
And poop could add even more cash to city c<strong>of</strong>fers.<br />
Councilman Richard Alarcon started a pilot<br />
programme to recycle some <strong>of</strong> the manure<br />
into compost. "We are looking at every option<br />
available to us, including the generation <strong>of</strong> electricity,"<br />
Greuel says.<br />
Bronner says he's worried that the poop-disposal<br />
crisis and lack <strong>of</strong> political clout may spell an end<br />
to the intangible benefits <strong>of</strong> sharing Los Angeles<br />
with horses. "The clip-clop on the streets is soothing,"<br />
Bronner says. "Horses just slow everything<br />
down a bit. Traffic slows down, you slow down."<br />

Family <strong>Cob</strong><br />
by Jessica Franks<br />
It’s an arduous job being a family cob<br />
Calling for brains and ability.<br />
We must cater for all from the short and the tall<br />
(in varying states <strong>of</strong> stability).<br />
When I take Mrs. hunting I stay at the back<br />
What Mrs calls hunting, I’d call a hack.<br />
She’s frightened <strong>of</strong> jumping, so I must wait<br />
(ashamed as I feel going through a gate).<br />
When I take Mr. hunting I’m happy to know<br />
That if there’s a jump, he’ll have a go.<br />
His style, I admit, is far from the best<br />
But I’m glad- oh so glad- to be up with the rest.<br />
When summer time comes, it’s a bit <strong>of</strong> a pain.<br />
It’s pony club rallies, with our little Jane.<br />
I plod round in circles taking great care.<br />
Unless I trot smoothly, she could disappear!<br />
Jim rides after school, he thinks I’m Red Rum,<br />
(or he’s driving a sports car in formula one)<br />
A little success has gone to his head,<br />
So I dump Master Jim in a thick nettle bed!<br />
It’s an arduous job being a family cob,<br />
Calling for brains and ability.<br />
I have to teach all from the nervous and small,<br />
To those who should learn some humility.<br />
Thank you to Sarah Rose for sending this to us.

Remember MacGyver?<br />
31 March 2009 was the 20th birthday <strong>of</strong> dear little<br />
'Ben Hur MacGyver' a 'Hydown' pony that some <strong>of</strong><br />
you may only <strong>of</strong> heard <strong>of</strong> at the Performance<br />
Awards.<br />
He has been with us for the last 8 years during<br />
which time he did many lead-rein classes at <strong>Welsh</strong><br />
and other shows. His best event was and still is<br />
Working Riding'. He won this event at the<br />
'Children's Festival' some time ago in the 10 and<br />
under age group [<strong>of</strong>f lead rein]. In addition he won<br />
this event at the 'old' Gauteng Schools League<br />
Finals out <strong>of</strong> a class <strong>of</strong> 60+ entries. He is also<br />
good at dressage having won the Eastern Region<br />
<strong>of</strong> GHS 10 and under Championship as well as<br />
<strong>Pony</strong> Club Champs. His latest achievement was to<br />
be part <strong>of</strong> the Benoni PC team that came 1st at<br />
the recent Inter-Branch mounted games and to<br />
beat about 20 others in the 'Jumpkhana' eventthis<br />
being a mix <strong>of</strong> Mounted games and jumps. In<br />
addition he is extremely popular and useful for<br />
<strong>Pony</strong> Club instruction purposes. Due to his section<br />
B size lots <strong>of</strong> our members can easily practice<br />
such things as 'Bandaging and Rugging',<br />
'Grooming,' 'Points <strong>of</strong> the horse' etc.<br />
He is very nippy at ducking under our fences and<br />
when he hears the suppers being dished up he is<br />
first to appear if not already in his stable.<br />
We hope he stays with us for many years to come.<br />

Flying the<br />
<strong>South</strong> <strong>Africa</strong>n<br />
flag in Europe<br />
Here is an update on one <strong>of</strong> the ponies bred by<br />
Grant Langley in <strong>South</strong> <strong>Africa</strong> that is now living<br />
and competing in Switzerland and doing very<br />
well.<br />
Foresyte Fidji<br />
This poem was submitted by<br />
Emma-Jane Osborn<br />
Mane like seafoam,<br />
Nose like silk,<br />
A heart <strong>of</strong> gold<br />
Fidji owns the hearts <strong>of</strong> many.<br />
Flying over a jump<br />
Pegasus comes to life.<br />
When she neighs<br />
The world stops breathing<br />
10<br />
Here is some news and results <strong>of</strong> Steffi and<br />
Penny. You called her Foresyte Little Villa, but<br />
we named her "Penny" after she left me "penniless"<br />
as a student! I had to pay Carla <strong>of</strong>f<br />
because I had so little money those days!<br />
She won first time out in dressage with a score<br />
<strong>of</strong> 75% in novice, 64% in Elementary (2nd),<br />
then went on to win the open riding class and<br />
the partbred in-hand class at an international<br />
<strong>Welsh</strong> Show with an English judge, Anna<br />
Stevens. She also got an special trophy for the<br />
best partnership between pony and handler.<br />
She since has had another Elementary Show<br />
with a first and third in her classes.<br />
She also took Steffi through a licencing test last<br />
weekend (people have to do an oral and riding<br />
test here before they are permitted to ride in<br />
higher classes, ie from EM level onwards), the<br />
judge approached her after the test and said<br />
she wanted all the results from SA so that they<br />
can put her up for National selection next year.<br />
Which means we may be competing internationally<br />
from the end <strong>of</strong> next year onwards.<br />
I must say, after all the hassles <strong>of</strong> the import,<br />
we have never regretted it and I am SO GLAD I<br />
bought her when Carla suggested it. She has<br />
NEVER been mean, although certainly no slug<br />
either, she has just the right amount <strong>of</strong> pep and<br />
fire to get her the awards without being out <strong>of</strong><br />
control. Thank you for breeding such a wonderful<br />
pony! Ulrike Kafka<br />
The image <strong>of</strong> her father<br />
A treasure trove<br />
She, the jewel.<br />
But at the end <strong>of</strong> the day<br />
Out comes the carrot<br />
And Fidji’s a lady no more.<br />
She’s a friend,<br />
A sister<br />
And the queen <strong>of</strong> my heart.<br />
When this happens<br />
I always think<br />
How did I survive<br />
Without her?
ROSEAPPLE<br />
SPRING<br />
CLASSIC<br />
<strong>South</strong>ern Riding Centre was very kind to<br />
allow us to hold the RoseApple Spring<br />
Classic at their premises this year. This<br />
being particularly so as they are undergoing<br />
huge renovations to upgrade the property.<br />
Grandstands ready for erection were<br />
in evidence as well other building material.<br />
Competitors were very understanding once<br />
they knew what was happening and there<br />
is great enthusiasm for a show next year<br />
at what will be a super venue.<br />
