| This marks the end of a great journey as we are forced to retire from Welsh pony production after 30 years. This is your last opportunity to acquire a homebred Helicon pony from the farm - all are reasonably priced. We regret that increasing health problems have prevented us from getting these fine youngsters out at the shows for your perusal. You can go by our record - each one offered is from a noted performance family. Please go to www.heliconsportponies.com - Check Our Record for a partial account of our hunter and sport pony wins. We are actively pursuing the acquisition of property for the Helicon Show Stables Annex in CO and then all our stock will be transferred to Molly in Colorado. This is your last chance to obtain a Helicon homebred from Illinois. It has been our great pleasure to supply the Welsh and performance world over several decades.
