Rollingwoods Lorna Doone AOE LOM - Winner of the Prestigious Dam Award of Excellence (Three offspring totaling over 8000 points) We are proud to say that we own two of the only three broodmares to ever win this honor. Lorna is the consummate babysitter and has always passed this trait onto her offspring. She is also one of the only broodmares in the history of the Welsh Pony and Cob Society to win both an individual and Dam Legion of Merit. Lorna can be ridden English or Western, driven and even has excelled in the hunters.

Ozark Let's Rock - Sometimes you acquire a pony for one reason and wind up loving it for a host of other reasons. Lettie was leased to us to complete the Sire LOM for her dad, Severn Sirocco. After showing her we realized that this mare was special and purchased her immediately. She has excelled in the driving arena but her biggest success has always been in pet pony obstacle. Children will fight over who gets to lead her because she has excellent ground manners and will not step on the smallest child. Some of her awards include:
Individual Award of Excellence
2005 WPCSA National Champion Pleasure Driving 12’ 2” and under
2005 WPCSA National Champion Carriage Driving
2005 WPCSA National Champion Child’s First Pony

Severn Desert Song - Song was a gift to us by a very special friend of ours upon her death. She is very cute and has produced some nice foals by our Stallion Rollingwoods Rockford. She is gentle in the pasture and passes this disposition on to her offspring.

Gayfields Mona L LOM - This mare gave us our first success in the hunter ring with her daughter Rollingwoods Picturesque who was the 1994 Small Medium Green Pony Hunter Champion. This was the start of a long dynasty of great hunter ponies. Each one by *Sleight of Hand OD LOM is a carbon copy of the other with incredible movement, natural lead changes, and unbelievable scope over fences. The only time we didn’t breed her to Sleight she produced our herd stallion, Rollingwoods Easy as L. Our thanks to Gail Thompson of Gayfields for sending this mare “over the river.”

Rollingwoods Stuck on You LOM Fortunately for us, Stuckey was born with a sway back so we retained her. Bred to Sleight of Hand, OD LOM, she has produced such champions as Rollingwoods Sticky Fingers and Rollingwoods Stick To It. Stuckey’s foals always mature large mediums with incredible scope over fences.
Rollingwoods Unrivaled- This filly was purchased in utero from Reta Rodgers. She was shown as a three year old and then retired to the broodmare herd. She is a relatively young broodmare but her first foal is currently in training and we don’t think we have ever had a more trainable animal.

Rollingwoods Who Doone It - This mare holds a special place at Rollingwoods as she is currently taking care of our future rider, Turner Davis. She defines the versatile welsh pony as she has excelled in Trail, Western, English, Hunter and Driving but her most valuable asset is her unflappable disposition. She has allowed Turner to learn to ride and not just be a passenger. Words can never describe her worth to Rollingwoods Farm. Some of her awards include:
12'2" and under 1995, 1996, 2003 WPCSA Champion Carriage Driving
2003 WPCSA Champion Leading Rein
2003 Award of Excellence Winner
1996 Legion of Merit Winner
1994, 1995, 1996, 2003 WPCSA Champion Pleasure Driving
Rollingwoods Undeniable - (Rollingwoods Easy as L LOM x *Varndell Desiree x Downland Mandarin) 2007 Section B Black filly – We thought that Dizzy was through producing and she presented us with this very special foal. Full sibling to Rollingwoods Unequaled she is definitely a “keeper”.
