Hi im new on here, and a little bit lost with it all. But basically i have just bought a beautiful horse called Peaktown Katie, and she is an absolute dream. Id just like to find out about her parents who are
Sire- Idealist
Dam- Peakown Willow
I have no idea where id find this information, i do know she is registered with the A.E.S but i just get lost on the website and all i want to do is browse to see if any three of these horses are on there. Or just on the internet. Id love to know about her Parents and breeding etc. So any advice would be so greatly appreciated! Thank you

Peaktown Willow is 1/2 shire 1/2 TB - she 's by Another Hoarwithy out of a mare called Ballbeard Lucy

Ballbeard Lucy is by Metheringham Joseph and out of Ballbeard Midnight Rose. I guess this is the shire line - very Shire-type names and Lucy is roan

(born 1983)

Another Hoarwithy was a highly thought of TB stallion standing under the old HIS scheme.

Idealist is a Belgian warmblood

She's a very smart looking mare - well done! Hope you have fun with her

Oh my goodness, i appreciate that help more than you'll ever know! Thank you so much, its really kind of you!
She's just so lovely, i adore her. Cant wait to spend the rest of our days together. Shes just amazing. And thats why i want to no about her history so i can appreciate her even more! Thank you again, you've been great
 
Haha, really helpful though, iv looked everywhere, still finding it hard to find pictures of these and information!!, iv found a pic of another hoarwithy which would be her...grandad?? i think, lol. But its just difficult to find anything. I suppose im doing her family tree haha, i find it really nice and exciting! You'd think i had all the time in the world!!

the other place you could ask for information is

http://www.shire-horse.org.uk/

Sounds like the damline came from Derbyshire...... there is a Ballbeard Farm in the Perak District Derbyshire - I have no idea if there is a connection there - but a Metheringham stallion - same stud as Joseph - stands near Newark, which is not a million miles away.

Got the initial information from www.nedonline.co.uk


You would think I had nothing better to do lol!
 
having done a bit more digging..... there is a Dutch stallion called Idealist who is by Jasper out of Capella. Not sure if this is the right one, but he was born 1990 so the right age to be her dad

Jasper used to show jump for the Austrian Olympic team under the name Little One (I think)
 
This is GREAT!!! Thank you
