Tawna Raffles

Bay colt (minimal tobiano)

Born 27/03/26

Sire: Tawna Rubus

Dam: Tawna Freckles

SOLD Raffles arrived slightly before his due date, but there was nothing premature about him. As someone commented - he’s built like a box!

With his exquisite little head, substance, presence, and showy paces we think he has a great future. To mature approx 30” - 31”

His full set of well-matched socks, black and white tail, and minimal markings, makes him such a smart pony.

Full brother to Frida, Freya and Fritz, we have deviated from the ‘F’ names this time: Raffles (sort of) combines both parents’ names, and we think it suits him.

Tawna Fenella

Skewbald filly

Born 08/04/26

Sire: Breckenlea Scenario

Dam: Tawna Florence

NOT FOR SALE Our lovely girl Florence has come up with the goods again. This darling little filly is full sister to Flasheart (2024) who was a great favourite.

Fenella has inherited bold face markings from both parents - her star is like a big spotlight. She is extremely pretty and won my heart from day one

We really like the Rio/Florence combination, and look forward to seeing this little girl develop here in the stud. She’s bound to be a favourite.

Tawna Daffodil

Palomino filly

Born 19/04/26

Sire: Tawna Champagne Charlie

Dam: Tawna Daphne

SOLD It’s absolutely wonderful to at last see our lovely Daphne with a foal at foot. She is the sweetest, gentle, calm-natured young mare, and is proving to be a super mother. Sadly we lost her previous two foals - both fillies.

This precious baby arrived unannounced, overtaking three far more likely candidates for the maternity wing!

Dilly is extremely pretty and feminine with a lovely head. She is gentle and ever so friendly - takes the lead in coming over to say hello every day! A real little sweetheart.

Tawna Murphy

Black colt

Born 25/04/26

Sire: Tawna Champagne Charlie

Dam: Tawna Tia Maria

SOLD Tia is a very beautiful mare, a great favourite, and we already have two of her daughters in the stud - Sherry and Martini

Murf is another smart foal - sturdy, upstanding, loads of presence - a good contender for the show ring, although he could be a slow-burner: he may well take his time to mature, but it will be worth it because he promises to be a stunner.

This sweet-natured boy has inherited his mums long mane - exceptional for a foal - but all on the wrong side. His new owner will have to train it over, but I know she won’t mind that little job.

Tawna Rosco

Chestnut colt

Born 28/04/26

Sire: Breckenlea Scenario

Dam: Tawna Rosetta

SOLD Three of Rosetta’s previous four foals by Rio have been fillies, and all have been extremely pretty.

This handsome, noble colt has a most attractive head, and a pleasant outlook. He carries himself well with a lot of style and is developing a lot of bone.

I thought he might roan-out like his mum, but it looks as if he will stay chestnut.

He’s a friendly, confident little chap - eager to come over - ears always pricked - for a scratch and tickle.

Tawna Posie

Piebald filly (minimal tobiano)

Born 28/04/26

Sire: Tawna Rubus

Dam: Tawna Pansy

SOLD Pansy popped out this baby with no trouble, but when the foal would not ‘latch on’, the following 16 hours were a real worry. What a relief when she eventually got the idea.

This filly is pure class in appearance, and super-placid in nature - like her wonderful mother. She was also extremely hairy - took ages to cast her foal coat.

Her socks are so pretty, and a real bonus - finished off with black hooves and ermine spots - always attractive and special!

Thanks to Nadja’s mum for the name suggestion!

Tawna Flavian

Skewbald colt

Born 29/04/26

Sire: Tawna Rubus

Dam: Tawna Florentina

SOLD This dear little boy is super-cute, and so evenly marked - pretty much the same on both sides. Well done Florentina! He is this young mare’s second baby, and she produced both with no fuss or preamble.

Flavian is extremely friendly and confident. He has inherited his sire’s impressive stride - tracks up nicely. He holds himself well, and with his straight movement, compact conformation and attractive markings, he is a good prospect for the show ring….his yearling full brother is having a great life doing young-handler classes.

Tawna Arabella

Chestnut filly

Born 04/05/26

Sire: Breckenlea Scenario

Dam: Tawna Agnes

NOT FOR SALE What a thrill to have another beautiful foal from Agnes and Rio….and a filly! This strong baby is built like a tank! Full sister to Apollo, Red Ember, Amber and Aramis.

We will probably (reluctantly) retire our wonderful Agnes this year, so it’s perfect that she has given us a worthy replacement . . . a friend said she was due to have a filly this time and she was right!

Arabella - love the name - has the super broad forehead and bold eye that Rio gives his babies, but she has a slightly flighty side to her nature, and does not like posing for the camera!!

Tawna Albie

Palomino colt

Born 05/05/26

Sire: Tawna Champagne Charlie

Dam: Tawna Alice

NOT FOR SALE Albie is a little dream-boat - very laid-back, totally chilled, just like his full sister, Amelia, who we have retained in the stud.

Albie is so pretty - lovely head, and huge eyes. He displays the typical excellent front and nice topline that Charlie stamps on his offspring, and has a good stride too.

Both parents are mushroom carriers, He has been genetically tested and is also a carrier.

With Alice and Charlie both being champions, we would hope this boy has a bright future. To mature approx 30” - 31”
