Progeny:

Machno Carwyn, is the leading show jumping pony stallion of all time - during the 28 years since the beginning of the Pony European Championship - no other stallion has gained a medal, whilst he has two individual Golds - 2000 Hagen, Germany - 2001 Veyjer de la Frontera,Spain.

At only 7 years old, he was 11^th in the finals of the individual - his European Championship debut. He was also 4^th in the individual final at Lanaken, Belgium 2002 with a 12 year old rider - see pic on left.

He won the Gold medal at the Swiss National Championships no fewer than  four times and one Bronze.  These are highlights of his career with numerous other titles and awards to his name. He placed in 130 top international competitions winning more than 50 and also placed in more than 25 international Grand prix winning 7.

In 2004, at the age of 12, sadly this came to a premature end due to eye injury, should this genius have continued, just imagine the feathers in his cap!

Machno Della, born 23rd May 2004, This 13.2hh beauty was shown for the first time at Gwynedd Breeders foal show 2004, was 1st in the Section C filly class and went on to be reserve champion. Also 1st in the breeders exhibiter class which included all sections.

Now sold to the famous Wyken stud, she continued her winning ways as a yearling, gaining many in-hand championships. All this is a stop gap until she can be produced under saddle.

Her brother Machno Dawnus - 1999,13.2hh has been exported to Switzerland and is winning classes against horses!

Machno Showtime

This rising 4yo is a prime example of how Carregcoch Bleddyn stamps his stock, being very agile, careful with excellent jumping technique and paces to match-with the calibre to go to the top.  Showtime went to the BEF Young Pony Evaluation in Stone, Staffordshire, on 20^th April 06 and was the highest scoring pony and was awarded Performance and Breeding Diplomas.  At the final for the BEF Young Pony Evaluations, which was run alongside the SPSS Grading on 21/22 October, Showtime was top jumping pony.           

This mare has spent time breeding and is now embarking on her sporting career in Switzerland. Proving to be a top class jumper, being 6^th of 70 in a horse class in Feb 06 and consistently gaining double clears. Her owners being so impressed they now have have 4 Machno ponies.
