HAVING BEEN BREEDING OUR
MINIS FOR OVER TEN YEARS WE WERE KEEN TO GET ONTO THE SHOW CIRCUIT
BUT DUE TO FAMILY
COMMITMENTS, SO FAR THIS HAD NOT BEEN POSSIBLE UNTIL THE DAY WE FOUND AN
ADVERT
FOR A STUD IN ANDOVER
WHO WERE TAKING LIVERIES FOR SHOW PRODUCTION AND TRAINING.
AFTER MUCH DISCUSSION
IT WAS DECIDED WE WOULD SEND ONE OF OUR YOUNG FILLIES ANCASTER CHARISMA
DOWN TO THE STUD TO
SEE WHAT HAPPENED.
THUS BEGAN A
WONDERFUL AND LIFELONG FRIENDSHIP WITH TWO VERY SPECIAL PEOPLE,
BECAUSE WITHOUT
THEIR
TIME, PATIENCE, HELP
AND ADVICE WE WOULDN'T BE WHERE WE ARE TODAY. OUR SINCERE THANKS GO TO
SHARON
AND DEREK AT THE
SHADEL STUD. www.shadelstud.com
  
SOME PICTURES OF
CHARISMA AS SHE PROGRESSED THROUGH HER TRAINING WITH SHARON AND DEREK.
  
WE WERE SO PLEASED
WITH THE RESULTS THAT THE FOLLOWING YEAR WE SENT SOME MORE OF OUR MINI'S TO
SHADEL.
ANCASTER HERMIONIE "BEFORE AND AFTER"
ANCASTER NEYLA TESTING THE WATER FOR HER
BATH. NEYLA AT HER FIRST SHOW
AND THEN..... THE FOLLOWING YEAR WE SENT SOME MORE.
ANCASTER SIR
NEIL ANCASTER NEW EDITION
EVERYONE OF OUR
MINI'S THAT HAVE BEEN WITH SHARON AND DEREK FOR SHOW PRODUCTION HAVE
QUALIFIED
EACH YEAR FOR MHOYS,
ROYAL LONDON AND/OR MHCGB CHAMPIONSHIPS. WE FOUND OURSELVES IN A POSITION
IN 2008 TO GO ALONG
TO MHOYS TO WATCH AND LEARN AT ONE OF THE MAJOR SHOWS. CHARISMA AND
NEW EDITION
WERE ALREADY AT
SHADEL AND READY TO GO. ALTHOUGH WE HAVE HAD EXPERIENCE IN SHOWING BIG
HORSES IN
THE PAST I WAS QUITE TERRIFIED
WHEN I FOUND MYSELF, AFTER A FEW QUICK INSTRUCTIONS FROM SHARON
ON THE OTHER END OF
CHARISMA'S SHOW LEAD AND IN THE RING. THANKS TO CHARISMA AND HER EXPERT
TRAINING
FROM SHADEL OVER THE
LAST FEW YEARS I
MANAGED THE DAY WITHOUT MAKING A FOOL OF MYSELF AND WE WALKED
OUT WITH A HUGE SMILE
AND SOME ROSETTES
FOR OUR EFFORTS.
AND SO THE SHOWING BUG WAS BORN. ROLL ON 2009..
