SHOW NAME: Llew Aur (Gold Lion)
BARN NAME: Tirion (Gentle)
AGE: Seven
GENDER: Mare
COLOR: Palomino
BREED: Haflinger
HEIGHT: 14.3 HH
PERSONALITY: Tirion is a cheeky little mare with a huge heart. She’s more of a dog than a horse, and is completely adorable when it comes to her mannerisms around the yard. She simply loves everyone and will do anything for a fuss. She’s also a little joker, always pulling things out of peoples reach or trying to ‘hide’ from her owner when being tacked up or caught. She usually complies when she’s been ‘found’ but sometimes can have an off day when she generally just doesn’t want to work. She has a thing for hair, and pony tails, and will try to latch onto anyone who passes by with one. As much as she’s excitable, she knows when she has to behave and can stay still when needed too.
To ride, it’s a different story. She’s extremely excitable, so is prone to rearing and bucking to show it. After every jump, she’ll throw in a buck and toss her head in pure excitement. She’s not dangerous, just hyperactive. She wants to please, just takes a long time to settle. To compete, it’s touch and go. Sometimes she can be lovely, other times she can be overwhelmed and even throw a rider. She feels extremely sorry for herself when she does so, and it’s obvious she doesn’t mean it. She just gets a little too frantic.
HISTORY: Tirion was bought at three by a riding stables for a lesson horse. When the mare proved to be too difficult for the riders to use, she was offered to a young girl who had a horse boarding at the stables. The young girl delighted to take her on, and brought her on considerably. She and Seren were sadly sold on when the girl disappeared a month ago, and the pair still together as they pass through various auctions for a new home. The young girl turned out to be Angharad Landeg, who has now been reunited with Tirion and Seren.

SHOW NAME: Hunllef Dawel (Silent Nightmare)
BARN NAME: Seren (Star)
AGE: Seventeen
GENDER: Mare
COLOR: Bay with White Brindle
BREED: Dutch Warmblood
HEIGHT: 16.3 HH
PERSONALITY: Seren is a mare who just doesn’t know whether she’s coming or going. She’s in her own little world and it takes a lot for someone to get in there with her. She seems to be in a constant daze, but is also harmless. She doesn’t make noise at all, but has a very expressive face. When she goes off in her little dream world, it’s immediately obvious. She gets a goofy look on her face which is completely adorable. Her stall manners need to be worked on though, mainly because it’s hard to get her to focus. She can be quite clumsy until you pull her into reality, so you have to be careful of stray hooves that may crush your feet.
To ride, she is a completely different mare. At least in competition. In training, she can be a pain. Her nature is to get distracted, so that she does. It could be a dog, or a person strolling past with a bucket or various other items. Other horses are another thing, she has to greet them all. When she finally gets going, you can see why she’s ridden as a Puissance horse. Her jumping capabilities are world class, and in competition she really proves it. In her younger years, she was one of the highest ranking mares. Now with age, she’s lost her value but is still very capable of what she’s always done.
HISTORY: Seren was bred for a rider in North Wales, transported there as soon as she reached age to leave her mother. Originally bred in Holland, she was trained by her owner in North Wales. He adored her nature and brought her far before getting various riders to compete on her. Eventually she was bought by a Welsh woman who managed to ride her in the Olympics, winning a silver medal for her troubles. By that time, the mare was already ten. Seren was then passed around to various people, competing in various competitions before settling in the hands of a young girl. The mare remained there until a month ago, when she was sold on because her owner disappeared. Now she’s being passed around auctions, looking for someone to take her on. She has now been reunited with the young girl, who turned out to be Angharad Landeg.
