* Granby Tom Thumb
x Morwel Mariah
Morwel Double Dare..aka
Herci, is a wonderful Sec A gelding. He is by the imported
stallion, Granby Tom Thumb out of Morwel Mariah (Severn
West Wind x Severn Fancy Free). Craig and I purchased him
last fall as a prospect for our daughters.. At the time
of purchase, he was sold with 30 days driving training,
however he had a tramatic accident in the cart that put
a terrible fear into him.
After consulting with our trainer, we decided to start him
under saddle to see if we could help him to over-come his
fears. Our incredible trainer, Danielle Gadd, started him
in June. Herci was such a willing student that he progressed
enough to warrant taking him to the Ohio Welsh Show in Canfield,
Ohio, August 10th, 11th, and 12th. To our delight, he placed
4th in adult trail in a strong class against seasoned ponies.
How many ponies can navigate all the elements of a trail
class with only 60 days under saddle? Herci has a great
future and will be a strong competitor in numerous disciplines
as time progresses.
Update: Since our daughters
want to show Pantheon Vivienne and Rosmel's Sunny Delight,
we decided to sell Herci to our trainer, Danielle. She sees
great potential in this small, but mighty pony and will
continue on with his show career; preparing him for her
young son and daughter. We are all very excited to see him
packing young children in the near future to all-around
awards. Danielle plans to compete in various events such
as English Pleasure, hunter over fences, ridden welsh, trail
and driving. If you are interested in Morwel Double Dare,
please contact us and we'll put you in contact with Danielle.
If you need a small
adult trainer for your small, medium or large ponies, give
Danielle a call. You won't be disappointed with her methods.
