OUR Monthly NEWS

Janurary News 2010

The start to a new year, there is lots of change at Ard Cherrymount Stud. Richard has moved out on his own and I have joined forces with George Newton, a very successful producer of young horses. We hope to offer you all a good stallion base and many potential horses and ponies to continue the great success we always enjoyed seeing our clients achieve.

The good news for breeders with be the return of Clover Flush for the 2010 season. Proving his stock can make it with 'Harristown Princess' (sired by Clover Flush sired before he headed off to Australia), Winning the Grand Prix at Kill International EC in an exciting finish at the close of 2009 jumping season

The stallions we will now have on offer for this coming season will be ;-

	Natal, now sire of five horses that have competed at International level.
	Simply Javlin, International Jumper and successful eventing sire
	Clover Flush, Winner of 1.60m International Grand Prix and representing Australia
	Sillogue Maximus Fully Approved Connemara Pony. Full brother to Pony of the Decade 'Sillogue Darkie'

We have mares due to foal to Natal this spring. We have a selection of youngstock, young riding horses and three potential 14.2 registered Connemara geldings soon ready for sale but these will be listed shortly.

Feburary News

We have all, but one, of the ponies measured ready for the coming season. Our little pony the was 126cm is now a very full 128cms to my surprise as she was five years old when she was first measured! One of the 148cms ponies was full up too but made it thankfully.

March, April, May News !

Three months going very fast! Sillogue Maximus has settled in well and is showing favour with the breeders. At last I now have a picture of him for you to see (below) and a page here on our site, just click on his name.

It is amazing to think he is by Ard Talisman that we bred those many years ago . I have had lovely emails from people who had related stock from us over the years and they are delighted to hear we have him and are delighted to hear that we can offer frozen and chilled semen from him too, which is great particularly for our seas clients

Natal is also doing very well and here on the stud we have just had two beautiful colts by him, which I will picture here soon. I have heard that Natal has a very exciting seven year old doing very well in Germany and causing quiet a stir, so I will have to do some more research on that. Eva Bitter's stallion 'Argellith Neils' is also doing very well for Germany too.

The riding horses are soon going to be ready to go to shows. We also have three lovely Connemara geldings now ready for sale and I will put up their details very soon

June News

Two of our three Connemara geldings are now sold. The first arrived with his new owner today the 8th and I got this email;

Casper arrived safely today!
He's better than we anticipated, we loved him on the video but in person he is gorgeous! His conformation is fabulous, I judge on the heritage panel and I haven't seen a connie as nice this yr!
He is currently tucking into his net!

I will still have 'Jack the lad' and I have to take him for measuring tomorrow and he does need a little more work anyhow. Must do a video of him too.

My lovely mare Riza had a beautiful bay colt by Natal at the end of May but Riza was sick 11 days later. She appeared to be clean but showed all the signs of Plesentitus or worse. I have had her on eight days of treatment using the most expensive drugs and it looks as if we have it stabilised and she is just beginning to show improvements.

I have a lovely young Douglas gelding that I hope to get out to a show shortly. It was great to see that the first and second in the 4y'old RDS Dublin Horse Show Qualifer were by Douglas and the week before I noticed two winners at a One Day Event in the UK. They do seem to be doing well.

Conan has two wins in Mullingar Int Show this last week end on his pony Jack and has another RDS qualifier at the beginning of July.

I found this video of one of Natal's sons 'Lil Majd' and he is still jumping this year.
