Firecracker - noun: a firework that makes a loud noise when it explodes    

This is a very long-awaited second foal for his beautiful dam, my foundation mare Danaway Fantasy, yet another striking colt that is palomino to boot! Firecracker has fantastic conformation, a real 'look-at-me' attitude and a confident presence about him. He has a beautiful head and kind eye with just a hint of that fire that every welsh cob should have! By my favourite stallion, Danaway Tango, this gorgeous colt features arguably one of the best stallions as his sire, whilst combining the bloodlines of my favourite stallions and studs! His sire needs very little introduction having won the Royal Welsh and Royal of England as well as almost every other major show in England and Wales! His dam is by the renowned stallion Danaway Flash Jack - a multiple supreme champion, Royal Welsh winner, bronze, silver and gold winner and holder of the coveted Prince of Wales Cup as well. He is carefully line bred to the wonderful stallion Tireinon Triple Crown and Cippyn Real Magic, two of my favourite old stallions that just ooze bone, feather and old welsh type. With the first four generations featuring the stallions: Danaway Tango, Tireinon Triple Crown, Nebo Brenin, Danaway Flash Jack, Nebo Brenin, Cippyn Real Magic, Trevallion Flash Jack, Hendy Brenin, Nebo Black Magic, Derwen Telynor and Brynymor Welsh Magic with mares no less amazing it is no surprise that this lad has all the hallmarks of being a superstar in the making!
