Sire: Nerwyn Gwyn (Betws Llew x Nerwyn Gwyrthiol by Nerwyn Tywysog)
Dam: Alvesta Electra (CadlanValley Pirate x Alvesta Fantasia by Llandefalle Bonheddwr)
This has been a special cross for us. Sire and dam are two of our strongest movers—and while we don’t often cross A x B, the right pairing can make for a great Welsh Pony.
Eira is just what we were hoping for: wonderful movement and bone, type, with a bold, intelligent mind.
ALVESTA FAIRY LORE
2023 Section B, Grey Roan (Chestnut) Mare
Sire: Thistledown Arctic Lore (Thistledown Arctic Sun x Thistledown Gala Queen by Mynach Buccaneer)
Dam: Alvesta Fairy Lustre (CadlanValley Pirate x Alvesta Mystique by GlanNant Adonis)
We've dearly hoped for a Lore x Fairy Lustre (15 yrs old) replacement daughter, as this has been such a lovely cross, and we just love the look of this filly, plus she's got about the sweetest temperament we could ask for.
We've now retained three Fairy Lustre daughters, including Silver Lustre & Caelia. What a mare she's been.
Full siblings: Owain, Oberon, Oneida, Odyssey.
