After 53 years in business, an established Canadian Welsh and Sport Pony breeding program will disperse in July.
SportHorseAuctions.com by Flashpoint Bloodstock, LLC announces the Kelly Acres Welsh Ponies and Cobs Complete Dispersal. The Internet Auction will include both Welsh and Sport Ponies from every facet of the breeding program.
Prolonged, extreme drought has forced the owners to make the difficult decision to disperse their Welsh Pony & Cob Breeding operation. This offers a unique opportunity for breeders to access bloodlines that otherwise might never be available.
Since 1966, the ponies produced by Kelly Acres have sold all over North America as well as Japan. They are competing in all disciplines and are making their new owners very happy.

Bidding will open on July 9 and close July 16.
As with all of Flashpoint Bloodstock, LLC’s Internet auctions, potential buyers will be able to register and have full access to the seller and all their information. Buyers can set appointments to try ponies, or have a representative do it for them. Pre Purchase exams can be done before bidding closes, and there is a limited post purchase exam allowed if done within five days of the closing of the auction and before the animal leaves the seller’s grounds. Some restrictions apply to post purchase exams. As always, buyers and sellers can expect quality, personal attention by Tim and Cathy and their staff, who all have years of experience, not only in the auction business, but also, in several different disciplines in the horse business. For Tim and Cathy, horses are their passion, as well as their business.
