stud history cont...
We have kept most of our old bloodlines which I think are the building blocks of the future. We now have both Wheelers & Minsmere prefixes although only use the latter to register the Connemara ponies. Most of the ponies we have sold, we manage to keep tracks of where they are and what they are doing, sometimes we hear from them many years later. A couple of years ago we had a phone call from a very upset lady who had sadly lost her pony - Wheelers Kingfisher (Knodishall Diamond x Wheelers Periwinkle). He had been a very successful driving pony - 3rd at Wembly in the Scurry as Fish & Chips.
