Welsh ponies dominate the Indoor Championships!

February 23, 2026

What an unprecedented success for the Welsh pony at the past Indoor Championships! Our versatile ponies have once again made their calling card abundantly clear at the KNHS Indoor Championships.

Of the total 45 medals to be awarded, no less than 24 went to a Welsh pony! That's more than half of the total podium!

The impressive medal tally:
🥇 9x Gold
🥈 9x Silver
🥉 6x Bronze

On behalf of the NWPCS we congratulate all riders, proud owners and passionate breeders with this fantastic result. You show that the Welsh pony is at the absolute top when it comes to sports performance and character.
