"The Topspec Supreme In Hand Champion was Thursden Vallye Raphael, who was also our Roseberry overall Champion and the Spring Show Supreme- there is something in his stud advert that states " he walks on water" he has certainly lived up to that at Area 4 shows this season"

NPS Area 4 Autumn 2008 News Letter.

 

Thursden Vallye Raphael, Trudy Goulding’s Hunter pony breeding stallion won the first Cuddy in-hand Horse of the Year qualifier of the season, beating a strong line-up at the West Midlands Show”

Thursden Vallye Raphael

Thursden Vallye Raphael a striking son of Graded Sports Pony Stallion Aimbry Chester out of a classically bred SPSS graded Yealand Nightowl mare. This elegant pony has an exquisite head, fabulous athletic paces and superb temperament. He has very correct conformation with a fabulous front, length of rein and the ability to inject quality into all types of mares, continually producing his own stamp over and over again .He does not carry the red gene so therefore has never produced a chestnut foal even to chestnut mares. This attractive talented pony stallion shows a careful jump over poles, loose jumping up to 1.25m and is bold and brave across country water, ditches, banks etc hacking out alone and in company. He has been fully vetted and licensed with the National Pony Society, was easily backed and ridden away during Autumn 2005 by a small child and is still proving to be calm and sensible regularly ridden and handled by children which must surely be test ament to his outstanding manners and temperament, he is the perfect Childs pony - the type mothers dreams are made of.

Raphael has taken all the qualities from his father's influential warm blood breeding which includes Advanced Dressage Stallion Wadacre Chicko, top international show jumping stallions Ramiro Z, Lady Killer, Rastell and Raimondo, as well as his mothers top class riding pony breeding which includes Yealand Nightowl, Bottingelle Swansong, Bwlch Valentino, Oakley Bubbling Spring and Blue Print. Berry Rose Dawn Chorus was a winning Riding Pony Broodmare, when she graded with The Sports Pony Studbook Society in 2003, Raphael was described by both judges as an outstanding foal with excellent conformation, temperament and charisma.

In 2010 as well as continuing a top level in hand and ridden showing career he will be produced by International Dressage rider Lisa Marriott as a Dressage pony, with the aim to be selected with a junior rider for BYRDS pony teams. He is already working at medium level & won first time out at Novice level scoring 69.5% he currently has 20 British Dressage points. In the winter of 2009 he began his showjumping training with international junior showjumper Lara Whiteway who is a member of the Junior British Team, he is very brave and careful over a fence, and will be making his debut in the show jumping arena very soon. Autumn 2009 he competed at the Cherif Championships carrying a side saddle something he took to after only a weeks training. His long term career plans are to be produced as potential JA and FEI event pony as well as an outstanding ridden show pony, his career potential is unlimited. We consider him to be a superb choice to breed top class children's competition ponies including show hunter ponies, working hunter ponies, dressage, and jumping ponies. As well as the ability to down size to breed fabulous Hacks, Ridden Part Bred Arabs and Intermediates from larger mares.

His youngstock and foals are proving to be exquisite with fantastic temperaments and conformation and that incredible “look at me” factor. Raphael is a top class multi champion performance pony stallion with an outstanding competition record. He surely must be the best performance pony stallion standing in Lancashire and probably without a rival in the North West of England.

Frozen Semen is also available in Australia, New Zealand, Northern Ireland and the European Union.

Progeny includes:

Bathleyhills Sea Swift - 1st & Champion winning NPS Silver Medal Rosette, Show Hunter Pony - Ashby De La Zouch Show. Champion Show Hunter Pony In Hand NCPA Leics & Rutland Show. Silver Horse Show, Supreme Champion, Graded SPSS broodmare achieving a SPSS first Premium at The SPSS Open Youngstock Show at The Heart Of England Equestrian Centre 2008 scoring 9/10 for temperament 9/10 for walk and 9/10 for trot 2009 BEF Brood Mare Premium. Bathleyhills Chocolate Dream 2nd PBW British National Foal Show.1st SPSS Open Youngstock show achieving a SPSS first Premium scoring 9/10 for temperament and general impression, 9.5/10 for head/neck and 9/10 for walk, 2009 BEF Futurity 1st Premium and SPSS 1st Premium. Songbird Of The Skie Champions of the future 1st Sports Horse Foal, 1st PBA 2/3 yr old, Best Of British 2009. In 2008 he sired the champion pony foal of Ireland at the Cavan Championships. First crop of exquisite foals born in Italy this year.

Covering certificates are available from the NPS. We consider Thursden Vallye Raphael to be a superb sire for quality Riding ponies, Working Hunter Ponies, Show Hunter Ponies, Showjumpers and dressage ponies along with the sort of pony that children’s dreams are made of. To horses he has the ability to downsize and to produce hacks, riding horses, and intermediate show-hunters/Show Riding Type. His foals are exquisite with fantastic temperaments, conformation and that incredible "look at me" factor.

Stablename Chocolate as everybody wants a piece of him !!! book early to avoid disappointment as he will stand to a limited amount of mares. Watch this space, dare you not utilise his bloodlines!!!
