"Quality sportpony prospects for dressage, eventing and hunters for the advanced child and competitive petite adult rider."
The Kaleidoscope Farm sportpony breeding project first began in 1991,
as a personal project for my own needs. As a petite adult, my personal goal
was to produce a smaller warmblood type, more suitable in size, without
losing the movement necessary for higher levels of dressage competition.
Starting
before any of the American sportpony registries were organized and prior
to the availability of any of the European Sportponies, the foundation was
based on the Connemara Pony with outcrosses to warmbloods from my sporthorse
breeding program..
The original foundation has relied heavily on the progeny from our foundation
Oldenburg stallion, Weltstern, who proved extremely prepotent in reproducing
his outstanding movement in successive generations.
Long an
admirer of the Connemara Pony, my foundation pony stallion was Stonybrooks'
Curragh Kildare, a smaller Connemara with outstanding athletic ability from
top American performance bloodlines.
Now in the
3rd and 4th generations of this project, the Kaleidoscope sportpony breeding
program is showing very consistent results with talented equines competing
in a variety of disciplines, under both adult and child riders.
