The Welsh Pony and Cob Society, 

 founded in 1902, bids fair to place the 

 Welsh pony on a proper foundation, and 

 this Society has made four divisions as 

 follows : — 



Class A. — Pure Welsh Pony not 



exceeding 12 hands and 2 ins. 

 Class B. — Ponies from 12J to 13J 

 hands, when a cob cross has been 

 introduced direct from the Welsh 

 Pony. 

 Class C. — Ponies from 13J to 14J 

 hands having more cob blood in 

 them.
