Hally has been in Chris Wrays care since January 06, after his own endurance Arab mare Zawadi became constantly lame. He and his wife Patricia already have two of my Lancashire Heelers. T. Bouncing Carmen (Ruby) and T. Startling Quinta. I bought Hally at six months with endurance firmly as her future, only I thought it would be me riding her. It has been a privilege to have been owned by her over the years. She has the nicest yet most mischievous nature that never stops bringing a smile to all.
Chris and Hally took about a year to bond and get to know each other. With 40km easily being completed in 2007.
Then as the results show for2008, with the dedication of Chris, Pat and friends they achieved the Open Class Champion. Endurance GB National - Royal Lord Trophy. Not bad for a Morgan in an Arab horse world. Hopefull 2009 will be another step up.
'Hally loves attention, these visiting elderly ladies enjoy meeting
closely all the animals at the farm. Hally dutifully gives them all
individual apple removal.
