Her registered name is Cloigen Carisma, Stable name 'Chloe'. She is approx 14.2hh, Welsh section D Chestnut mare with four white socks and a blaze, she was born 1st May 1997 so would be 15 years old this year. SHE IS FREEZEMARKED 2TOD on saddle area.
Last we know of her is that she was sold from Hornchurch, Essex in 2005 to a lady in Devon but was sold on again a few months later so could be anywhere now.
I used to own this horse and have been trying to trace her for many years but only recently found out she was sold to someone in Devon. The sale was legitimate, This is NOT a stolen horse. I purely just want to know how she's doing as I had heard she had gone through many homes.
Any information good or bad would be gratefully received, If you recognise her or know of her whereabouts please email me maydencroftshetlands@hotmail.co.uk or message me.
Thank you for reading this :)

SHOW CUPS AND TROPHIES

This is an appeal for anyone who has ever won a SWA cup or trophy to look and see if they have still got it, we are missing a few cups and in spite of the signed receipts accepting full responsibility whilst in their care, people deny still having them. Before going to the expense of replacing these missing cups, we would ask everyone to check extra carefully. If you find you do have one of the SWA’s cups please return it to a committee member or the relevant show secretary. We intend to start a list of people who have not returned cups and they will not be allowed to take any in the future and we may publish in the Spring Newsletter a list of those cups for which we have receipts but which the people who signed for them deny having.

PHOTOGRAPHS FOR WEBSITE

Please keep sending in photographs of ponies and cobs which have either done well and are owned by a member or ones that have been bred in the area. They must be good clear photographs of the ANIMAL. Also any interesting stories about ponies or cobs which would not necessarily do well in the show ring but do so much in advertising the attributes of the Welsh – the show ring is not the be all and end all of everything!! Rob’s e-mail address is karenofpolmesk@btconnect.com.
