2002:
My friend, Lisa, in Roanoke, VA, tracked down
Foothills Waterford
, who is still with owner, Sarah Trompeter. She brought me some video which showed that he has filled out tremendously and still a very lovely pony type. Sarah reported that Ford
won the stallion class at the Virginia CommonWealth Games
in 2001 against several impressive warmbloods, and that his foals were also doing well.
A TB-cross son (Waterfords S'il Vous Plait) was 2nd in the colt foal class
and he, along with
another Waterford filly won the Get of Sire.
I have some good video of Ford and a couple of his babies. I think you will like it. Everyone LOVES him! Love, Lisa Knappe (Jan. 02)
In 1994, Ford's full sister,
Foothills River Queen
, was awarded the first place Futurity Trophy in the highly contested Region III Purebred Connemara Yearling Futurity.
The following year, at the tender age of only 12 months, Waterford placed 2nd
Ford was started under saddle in the summer of 1997 and was ridden mostly by a 13 year old girl. He is a responsive mount with a nicely forward, free way of going. He is a safe and willing jumper in both stadium and cross country.
