Breeding History
Carwed Charmer had many successes in
hand and as a ridden pony and was especially noteworthy for his calm, quiet, tractable temperament which Tollhouse Mercury
has certainly inherited. He is very well known and was the Royal Welsh Champion
and Multiple Sire Ratings Winner.
Eyarth Celebration had
his first win at the RWAS when, as a yearling, he was top of his class, reserve champion youngstock, and reserve male champion.
Before that, as a foal, he was unbeaten wherever he was shown. His most successful year in the show ring in 1987, when, on loan to Tom
Best and David Blair of the Waxwing stud, he was overall native champion and reserve supreme champion at the West Midland
Stallion Show, supreme at Glanusk and champion at Lampeter, champion at the Royal Highland and the National Pony Society as
well as reserve champion at the Great Yorkshire Show.
Keston Royal Occasion — Perhaps the most pre-eminent sire in the history of Welsh and Riding Ponies in both Australia and the United Kingdom. In the United Kingdom he won the sires rating trophy several times and in Australia
he held the award for the Australian Riding Pony Society from 1993 - 2000, placing second in 2001. This is an immense
achievement as he had only limited youngstock competing because he has not been at public stud for 3 years. He is a welsh B who has sired numerous winners since his importation to Australia and whose Riding Pony
imported grandsons, Janinos Little Joker, Syon Royal Portrait and Fairley Temptation are proving excellent sires.
