Diablo: 

This stunning colt is only a few weeks old in the photos and they do not do him justice so I will update them as soon as I get a chance as he matures..... He is a striking chestnut colt with, I think, 4 socks and a blaze. He is nicely put together with a strong backend and good front, lots of bone and feather and is graceful yet powerful. He already has lots of presence and attitude but is kind natured and inquisitive. His sire is the famous Trevallion Valentino, himself a supreme champion in the show ring, as well as the sire of numerous top show winners including Royal Welsh Winner Drogheda Stormy Tempest, Northleach winner Danaway Miss Supreme, multiple Supreme Champion Danaway Samson, and has repeatedly proved himself as a top show stallion and sire.

His dam is Danaway Ribbon a beautiful chestnut mare who is a half-sister to the multiple Supreme Champion Danaway Tango, being by Tireinon Triple Crown and out of Rainhill Fantasy (out of a Derwen Telynor mare and by the superb stallion Brynymor Welsh Magic). Her sire (out of the infamous Tireinon Spring Song and by Nebo Brenin) was a Builth Wells `Sale Topper` in 1984 and later went on to win the RWAS in Harness. Her dam, Trefforest Ribbon, is by the supreme champion Nebo Daniel and out of the top stock-getter Synod Rumour. Trefforest Ribbon is the foundation of three generations of top welsh cobs at Danaway - dam to superb cobs like Danaway Champagne Charlie, Danaway Shannon (dam of foals including Danaway Black Harry and Danaway Maximus), Danaway Painted Lady, Danaway Janella (herself dam of foals including RWAS winner Danaway Crackin Rose) and the stunning filly Danaway Rose Gold.

This colt has a truly awesome pedigree with back to back champions throughout his pedigree and siblings. He has Brynymor Welsh Magic and Tirienon Triple Crown as grandsires and Nebo Brenin, Nebo Daniel, Cippyn Real Magic and Nebo Black Magic as his four great grandsires! The mares in his immediate pedigree are also some of the greatest: Tapton Rachael; Tyngwndwn Mathrafal Lady; Tireinon Spring Song; Nebo Rosebud; Cathedine Pride; Synod Rumour and Nebo Princess Ann. It really is a who's who of welsh cobs. This colt is bred to show and knows it.... running rings round his dam at only a few hours old - he already has the presence and attitude of a colt destined to do great things. Regrettably I cannot keep another colt so if you are fed up with run of the mill welsh cobs and are looking for something special then this colt is for you....!
