2x

I find it amusing that people hear Bella's breeding and assume she is going to be a showhorse. I presume this is due to her grandsire, Kilvington Scoundrel www.whaltonstud.co.uk/kilvingtonscoundrel.html. However, Bella is out of Eden Garnet (Swedish Warmblood - Gibraltar II / TB - Shipside Sally) so I consider her to be bred for performance, and not just the showring.

I saw Bella doing two times changes in the paddock - this isn't the first time I've seen her do this so hope it bodes well for her future!
