                  We believe Silver has jumped 
                  BSJA, we are going to try and follow up her show records and 
                  past history in due course. 
                  She came to us with the 
                  intention of producing her to sell after her owners had found 
                  she was too much for their daughter.  She proved to be 
                  very difficult under saddle and we came to the decision she 
                  was unsafe to ride.  She is a lovely person who we think 
                  may have had a lot of pressure in the showjumping arena and it 
                  has blown her mind. 
                  We have loose jumped her and 
                  she has a fabulous jump. 
                  We discussed her future with 
                  her owners, and we all came to the decision we would keep her 
                  as a brood mare so she didnt get pushed from home to home, on 
                  the understanding she doesnt get ridden 
                  again. 
                  We decided with the jump she 
                  has to put a showjumping stallion on her and carefully chose a 
                  superb Netherland New Forest called Fabian, who is a young 
                  Sports Pony Graded Stallion who is proving outstanding in his 
                  first year of BSJA showjumping, she took in foal on the first 
                  covering and her first foal "Sally" was born on the 14th March 
                  2008. 
                  We graded Silver with a score 
                  of 78.7% with the SPSS 13th October 2007, she proved very 
                  popular having decided to do the loose jumping of her own 
                  accord - even though being in foal she wasnt expected to 
                  jump!!!!

                  Silver is now out for the 
                  Winter looking forward to her foal coming in the early Spring, 
                  we are all very excited about it, shes not quite as clean as 
                  she was for the grading but looks just as well!!!  We 
                  have used a German Riding Pony Hilkens Black Delight as a 
                  choice for 2009 he is absolutely stunning and has some 
                  fantastic results in Germany so we look forward to see what 
                  she will produce for her second foal.

                  For 2008 Foal - Fabian 
                  standing at the Meadow Stud .... 
                        
                  We had a trip to Willoughby Equestrian 
                  Centre to meet Fabian, Toby, who rides him and his dad Craig 
                  Gardener he had the most fantastic temperament, and superb 
                  jump, as stunning in the flesh as his advertisement photos, 
                  Craig and Toby were fantastic people who had time to introduce 
                  us to him and talk at length, even though they were 
                  incredibly busy with ponies competing in all 
                  classes!!!!! 
                  We'd like to wish them all the best 
                  success in the future.
