Does anyone know what has happened to Jethro's horses. He was breeding some nice race horses and had some very nice show horses but next week he is selling everything up, has he given up horses?
We competed against his hunters a lot 2006 -12, he had them with Robert Oliver, and thinking about it I haven't seen his horses in the ring for a while now.
It was suggested to me 4 years ago that there were some decent brood mares for sale, available and from Jethro, as he was giving up breeding. I suspect that he's finding that his once expansive life style, supported by sufficient earnings, is now slowing down and wisely, he's reducing his outgoings. Shrewd man, I'd say!
The carvery attached to his stables hasn't been open for about 4 years now. See a few horses in fields, not many, outdoor school which was well used and maintained now overgrown. Not been touched for at least a couple of years. Never see anyone about and lorry parked up whenever I drive by his place. Last saw his lorry out at devon county couple of years ago.
