Bryndefaid Stud

The Stud's current senior Stallion is Friars Sprightly who was bought from his breeders at the Friars Stud in Anglesey as a 3yo Colt in 1991 to provide an out-cross for the Herald Daughters. He remains here to this day - and will do so for the rest of his life! He is a perfect gentleman and a joy to have, and we think his stock speak for themselves. He has been shown lightly here in Scotland in his younger days but is now retired !
He is a full brother to the many times Champions Friars Sion, Friars Siani, Friars Shanco, Friars Integrity Boy and Friars Generous.

We have retained the young Stallion Bryndefaid St. Andrew who was shown as a colt by Mark Tamplin, and was always placed in good company. Andrew combines the bloodlines of Waxwing Herald & Friars Sprightly. Andrew was shown under saddle in 2008, being produced by Samantha Roberts, and had fantastic first season Qualifying and coming Ninth in the Open Ridden A&B Class at Hoys, and winning his section of the Picton Final. In 2010 he was produced by Katy Marriott-Payne, and was 6th at Hoys.
