Kapatone is the name of the stream that runs around our property. 

Welcome to Kapatone Section B Welsh Ponies and Shetland Ponies.  We are situated in Chrischurch, New Zealand.  We started aquiring  Section B Welsh Ponies in 2005 wth the purchase of Glendale Ash (sire of Dam Pendock Pilgrim Imp Uk)- Ash was ridden by our daughter and proved to be an outstanding pony under saddle.  Ash has since produced two lovely fillies.  Our second mare was Glenmore Penllwyd (Imp Aust) which was imported in foal to Rotherwood Secret Agent (Imp Uk).

Our aim is to breed Welsh Section B's with quality,temperament and movement either under saddle or for the show ring.
