Ballybritta
14.3h black mare (born 12/18/01)
Out of Too Truely (TB)
Bred and owned by Mary Hughes, St. Matthews, SC

 

Alice Verbrick and Bally Britta (photo below) completely dominated the tadpole division at Jumping Branch CT on August 22 winning 1st place and scoring a 25 on dressage and a clean round.

We had a great time at the ACPS Region VI show, and will definitly try to come next year. The Jimmy Wofford eventing clinic was fantastic. Thanks for the picture. It was so fun seeing Bubba do his thing (see his photo below)..Mary (June 09)
ps Peidmont Palmetto trotted his first cavelletti today..

One of Bubba's offspring was competing at the Camden Hunter Trials. BallyBritta (1/2 TB) 7 year old black mare - very pretty. She's owned by Mary Hughes and leased by a 13 yo girl (Alice Verbrick) who will probably buy her. They may come to our Region IV show!
She got a ribbon in 3 of her 4 classes - 3rd in Jr Hunter, 4th in Open Hunter (2'3") and a 2nd in Pairs. Kate (Mar 09)

Thanks for keeping up with me and Britta (by Balmullo's Beacon ). She is being leased by a rather talented kid that rides with me and really doing well going to combined tests and schooling horse trials. If I were wealthy Ii'd keep her as my exclusive hunt pony because she locked in and is the most instinctive hunter I've ever ridden. I guess like the fetch in a labrador its bred in there what fun... Piedmont Palmettto (by Balmullo's Beacon) is very special also. He's 16 hands and balanced.  Has only bopped around the farm with other horses at this point but really likes that.    Mary Hughs (Feb 09)

Britta is phenominal, if she were sixteen hands she'd be my horse of a lifetime.... Her dressage is coming along and she's just incredibly brave about scary things like ditches and water.. I have to force myself to take it slow with her (4/05)
