Solstice Sangria was born here with us, out
of our first and favorite cob mare Glenhaven Welsh Margarita. She
was a delightful little red filly, very loving and friendly. She
quickly became the farm “character”, an official greeter of people
and new equines, always up to babysitting, and of course, our
favorite. She was well started as a three-year-old and became
English Pleasure Champion at her very first Welsh show in classes of
six.
As a four year old she was shown lightly in introductory dressage
with most of her scores in the 70s, and topped by a 76% which got
her a year-end award. Her first time in Training Level Test One she
scored a 74.09%.
She was also well schooled in trail obstacles and Western. She has
taken First Place in two very large open trail classes with stock
breeds, one at age 3 and again at age 4. She can open gates, do pole
work (side-pass and back-throughs).
In 2005, while pregnant she got second place in her first ever Gold
Show Ridden Cob class of many entries. She has won three Southern
Welsh Association year end awards for Western Pleasure Adult, then
for English Pleasure Adult and High Score Welsh exhibitor at the
Canterbury Schooling Dressage Series.
In 2006, she became a mom to a very beautiful half Arabian filly.
Sangy has a very people-loving and trusting character. You could not
ask for a better best friend.
