History wanted - Elvis 6yrs grey IDx by Welcome Flagmount

[Lulup]

I bought this horse around Easter this year from the Norfolk area and would like to fill in the gap between him coming over from Ireland (spring/summer of 2011 I think) and coming to me.

He is approx 16.1 - passported and chipped - by Welcome Flagmount x Springvale Queenie.

Any info received with great interest

Thank you

Whereabouts in Norfolk did you buy him from?

 

[Lulup]

I bought him from a yard near Thetford - a reputable importer of Irish horses - but he had come in as a PX from a private home in the Norfolk area, a young girl I think (15 maybe).

Might be worth asking on IDHS website. Good luck

I have a welcome flagmount, who is the breeder on passport. I used to deal with yard where stallion stood

 

[Lulup]

He was bred by Gabriel Nohilly and then next name is Gabriel Slatterybat Castlelawn Stud - I'm guessing after losing the stallion they may have started buying in some of his young stock.

Where did you get yours from and what is it like?

Gabe Slattery was the stallion owner, I bought our boy from him.
"Flaggy" as he was known was a superb Grade A sj'er really neat & tidy & you would not know he was a stallion to ride or handle.

He was killed whilst being got ready for a show the wall in the solarium area collapsed, he held the wall off his groom Fiona & saved her life. She was out cold with a head injury.
I was priviledged to have met him.

Gabe senior & junior have bought up a lot of his stock & you should drop them a line as they are always interested in his progeny.
Castlelawn stud Irishtown.

Guess you got yours from Sue, she has good horses, I'm sure she would pass your details on to previous owner if you asked her.

Oh my boy, check out my profile picture that is him.
17.2hh pure ID, so willing & friendly, loves to work.

Allistair Hood has a champion cob by Flaggy too.

Thank you - he did come from Sue but he came in as a px with very little history - I dont know who imported him or what he had done since leaving Ireland but loved his breeding so i took him on as an unknown prospect really. He is a lovely boy

 

[Lulup]

Your boy looks lovely - what a great picture x

 

[partypremier]

Pm'd you.
I'm sure he would have hunted with the North Galway. Gabe is a whipper in & Hunts everything & anything.
He would have also schooled round his xc course I bet.
Google Castlelawn stud & you will see his place on you tube.

 

[partypremier]

Gentle giant, no matter where he is on the place if you call him he calls back & trots over without fail.
Can do anything with him.

Hope yours turns out the same.

 

[Lulup]

I hope so too - he is a very kind friendly horse
