Virtue was one of our foundation mares and has won many championships for us. She has produced some outstanding offspring and her two sons by our chestnut stallion Weewaif Bath Oliver, Brockville Venture and Brockville Vintage are both now licenced stallions. We have retained two of her daughters for future breeding purposes, Brockville Vermillion and Brockville Verona. Virtue has now been retired from breeding having had her last foal in 2010, another stunning bay colt, Brockville Vermont again by Oliver who we are very much looking forward to showing in 2012.

Meg won many in hand Championships as a youngster and in 2004 won the three year old coloured filly class at the International Shetland Show in Belgium. She is one of four daughter's of our chestnut mare, Weewaif Merry Melody who have been retained by us. In 2007 Meg had her first foal, a beautifully marked skewbald filly by Brockville Venture who has also been retained.

For the last three years Meg has been competing in ridden classes having been expertly produced by Mrs Beryl Rae from the Samber Stud in Devon and ridden and shown by Eve Richardson. During this time she has won numerous classes from Lead Rein to Open Ridden as well as a large number of Ridden Championships. The photo above was kindly taken by Steve Richardson.

Merry is one of our favourite mares. She was only shown once when she won the yearling class at the Royal Bath & West Show. She has been a prolific breeder of fillies and we currently have four of her daughters, Merry Meg, Merry Margo, Merry Morag and Merry Mischief in the stud. One of her sons, Merry Maestro was gelded and is now going nicely under saddle. She has bred a lovely big red bay colt foal this year, Merry Mac who will be for sale at weaning. He is by Brockville Venture and is expected to mature at 41".

Millie as she is known in the stud, is the full sister to our two home bred licensed stallions, Venture and Vintage. She is one of the rare finds in the Shetland breed being a full 42". She was shown for the first time at the Shetland Pony Stud-Book Society Breed Show in Shetland in 2009 where she was 3rd in a very large Coloured Yeld mare class. She is a beautiful mare who is the very image of her dam, Hose Virtue. In 2007 she had her first foal, a colt, Verdi, by the black stallion, Stow Vulcan.
