Tawna Neptune

Born 2008. A really classy young strawberry roan/white stallion. From the moment he was born he possessed that "look at me" factor. Height: 32.75" (83cm). Very lightly shown, his exceptional long-striding free-movement ensured success. He is now being used at a stud in France.

Born 2005. Sold as a foal (with stallion potential), Dundee was later purchased by the Tussilago stud in Northamptonshire where he was licensed and sired over 20 foals.

Tawna Bea’s Knees

Tawna Basil
Sire: Tawna Rubus
Dam: Tawna Saffron
Born in 2011 Height 32.25” A ‘stand-out’ foal from the beginning, Basil was sold as a foal to the South Park (Fairy) stud and was licensed in 2015.

Penwarne Firery Jack
Sire: Tawna Sherbert
Dam: Tawna Black Magic
Born 2001. We sold "Eric's" dam when she was carrying him, which is why he has a different prefix although his parents are Tawna -bred. We bought him back as a 2 y.o. and he was licensed in 2004. He produced 44 foals in the UK before going to the Tyeslemore stud in Holland.

Tawna Graffiti
Sire: Kirkstall Achilles
Dam: Tawna Merryn
Born 2010. With his jazzy markings and tremendous presence, Graffiti was an eye-catcher from day one! Purchased from us as a foal, and since licensed by the Ellernbrook stud in Germany we hope this flashy stallion has a great future. Photo courtesy of Ellernbrook stud.
Tawna Petroc
Sire: Kerswell Nutcracker
Dam: Tawna Merryn
Born 2012. Sadly this most attractive young dun and white stallion was too closely related to many of our mares to be of real benefit to us. We would love to have kept him, but it would have been impractical. After licensing him, he was sold to a stud in Hungary where we hope he will produce wonderful stock. Photo taken at 2 years old.
Tawna Smart Alec
Sire: Kerswell Musketeer
Dam: Tawna Custard Cream
Born 1995. Judging by the picture above, this boy was well named! We exported Smart Alec to Holland as a foal. He was later licensed there as a stallion (31.75”), gained Premium grading, and as far as we know has spent all his life in that country.
Tawna Pablo
Sire: Kerswell Nutcracker
Dam: Tawna Pavlova
Born 2005. Sold as a foal with stallion potential, Pablo unfortunately had rather a chequered first few years of his life, but later was licensed, and to date all his foals have been broken coloureds. Licensed height: 32.75”. Photo at 5 months old.

Tawna Sage
Sire: Kirkstall Achilles
Dam: Tawna Saffron
Born 2010 Height 32.5”. Sage was out of a lovely mare from our best line of show ponies. He had a tremendous length of rein, neat little head and plenty of mane and tail. Before being sold to Germany, he was leased out in the UK, producing some super, quality foals with attractive heads.
Tawna Orion
Sire: Tawna Rubus
Dam: Tawna Celeste
Born 2020. Height 32.5” Rion was a head-turner from the start - most attractively marked, flashy movement and loads of silky mane and tail. He had the sweetest temperament and was a real pleasure to take in the showring where he was consistently well-placed. We wish him well in his new home in Wales
