Gladstone is by Heniarth Scheckter, who is line bred to Roseisle Pandytudyr and is proving to be an excellent stock-getter both in the UK and the Netherlands.

 

Both of Scheckter's parents are Royal Welsh winners, his sire Mr Milligan three time winner, Male Champion and HOYS Cuddy finalist. His dam Yippie Aye Yeah also qualifying for the Cuddy final at HOYS as well as being the dam of several Royal Welsh winning siblings and HOYS finalists.

​

Gladstone's dam, Gloriumptious, is a Supreme Champion lead rein pony who qualified for the Lead Rein final at HOYS. Gloriumptious is a full sibling to the very successful stallion Heniarth Beaudacious, both being by Champion and WPCS medal winning stallion Colne Turbo and out of Royal Welsh Champion mare Heniarth Yum Yum.

​

The combination of both of the Royal Welsh winning daughters, Yippee-aye-Yeah and Yum Yum, also means that Gladstone is line bred to Sunwillow Yasmin, who is a mare we felt was a of a type that we would aspire to breed here at Kaydrith.

​

We saw Gladstone in a video shared by Heniarth Stud as a foal at foot. When we visited Heniarth to view him, we were particularly impressed with the over-riding type of their Welsh Mountain Ponies, unmistakably 'Welsh' but with a usefulness in performance that has been proven time and again with their results.

We hope that with his type and breeding, Gladstone be a future asset to our stud.
