Sadly, today we had to say goodbye to our dear High Flown's Viper. Our sweet Viper was almost 26 years old and meant a lot to us. With his super character he was the darling of the kids to give him a lovely brush up. In his younger years he was a beautiful appearance in the harness classes in single and double with Klenekes Basje. Viper has left us beautiful black mares who have achieved beautiful predicates such as High Flown's Black Rose (keur, preferent), the star mares High Flown's Alycia and High Flown's Be Mine and High Flown's Amy who has produced beautiful offspring such as the star mare High Flown's Amira, High Flown's Adorable Balou, High Flown's Ace, High Flown's Abu and High Flown's Avastar. Our other black mares have the High Flown's Viper blood through his son the black High Flown's Adrian. How proud we were that Viper was chosen as the nicest old Welsh pony in 2021. We are very happy to be expecting another foal this year from Viper out of the mare High Flown's Banana Milkshake, how we will cherish and pamper this foal.

Dear Viper, thank you for the 26 wonderful years and how terribly we will miss you. “
