30th September 2007 : 2007 Showing Season


Our yearling filly, Rainhill Rowena, pictured above and below (photos by Keith Curtis), went from strength to strength as the season progressed with wins at Northleach, Midlands WPCA and Home Counties WPCA Shows. At the Southern Counties WPCA Show she won her class, was Section D Youngstock Champion, Section D Champion (and a bronze medal), Welsh Youngstock Champion and Reserve Champion of the Show. The showing season ended for Rowena at the Royal Berkshire Show where she again won her class, was Welsh Youngstock Champion, Welsh Champion and Reserve Mountain and Moorland Champion. It was hard for big sister, Rainhill Olwen, to keep up but she was always in the ribbons and, at the Southern Counties Show, she stood Reserve Youngstock Champion to her sister! We look forward to showing Rowena in 2008 and Olwen is in foal to our 23 year old stallion, Ystrad Dewi Flyer. We will be waiting anxiously in mid March 2008!
