(Invitation to Tregoyd horse owners to send up-dates on their horses for inclusion on this page if they wish)
*********************************************************************************************
Entry made on 16th November 2008
These below are all model horses based on the Breyer Cleveland Bay.
Not sure whether the breed should be flattered or annoyed that the Cleveland Bay appears in all of these forms sufficient to
satisfy the eye of the viewer and modeller that the conformation suits all of these breeds of horse. Perhaps annoyed that credit is
not always give to the Cleveland Bay and that they are sometimes blatantly described as Irish Draught, for example.
Wouldn't you think that they want to have a model based on an actual ID or what ever horse breed is 'painted'?
I can't help admitting that some are really attractive so this
must show the high quality of the original horse,
the original model of the CB as well as the sculptor.
I suppose it is also amusing and perhaps to
be expected, dare I say it, in the USA .
What do you think?

Entry made 11th November 2008 - More news of Boo from Jane Russell. Thank you.
She says:
" I have been following your website stories about Choco, it is lovely to see how he is getting on. Just thought
I would send you a quick update regarding Boo's dressage at Bury Farm, He managed to win his first
rosette by coming 6th which was lovely for him, He found it all very spooky this time, so we are going
back on the 30th to try to get him used to working with other horses bobbing about in the arena
hidden from his view. Having watched the video he actually looked a lot better than it felt, so that
is promising, but he behaved like a dream in the warm up before and after, and I have sent you a
good picture this time of Boo doing his test, prelim 13. He is still loving his jumping and he is
generally getting more and more confident with everything.

Entry made 3rd November 08 - Photos of Choco at his new home in Pembrokeshire with Rhiannon and Sonnie,
and of meeting their other
Tregoyd bred horse, Tregoyd Sportsman.

They may all have to travel together at sometime in the future all being well.

Entry made 28th October 2008- Hot Tregoyd Chocolate today started a new phase of his life after being broken to ride by
Owen Cooper, by traveling with Sonnie and Rhiannon Eustace to Pembrokeshire where he has a new
home and with fellow Tregoyd bred horse, Tregoyd Sportsman (Sport).
Margaret and I are sure that he will be very happy and there and will soon be a familiar sight on the BE circuit.
He will be brought on very gently as he is only 31/2 years old and has shot up in height rapidly this last few months.
Pictures of him at his new home will be posted here when we receive some from Sonnie.
Below is an earlier picture of Sport from early in October at Dauntsey Park where he finished a creditable 6th in his section.

31st July 08 - Photos from Jane Russell who has Tregoyd Court Jester. Non CB needless to say.
Jane reports:
I have enclosed 2 pix of Boo taken by my Dad at the weekend of him competing in the RB Derby at MK event centre.
As you can see he loves his jumping and always goes over the fences. We have had a few lessons from
the 4* eventer Nick Turner and he really likes him and he is getting better and better, and more
confident. All the best Jane
