Hi

We were there for the fox hunter. The crowd behind us were in disbelief that the winner was British Bred!

Voltaire is still a force to be reckoned with in jumper breeding. I think that British breds do so well because of the superior nutrition of your land as it brings out the full genetic potential. I am in Ocala Florida USA and we are noticing the best horses seem to come from your region, also Ireland and Normandy in France. Bravo to British breeders! The disbelieving crowd, where were they from do you know?
