The pair claimed the NPS Celebration of British Breeds Championship…an exciting new NPS sponsored competition, celebrating the versatility of British breeds!
Competitors earn points across different disciplines before going forward to the special Grand Finale showing class. Across the two days, Millie and Duke achieved top-five placings in both dressage and showing, before going on to take the Championship in the Grand Finale. We have owned Duke and his brother Rodlease Bandsman, since they were weanlings…purchasing them from their breeder Suzanne Kempe. Both boys are by Bullhill Major, and Millie has produced them slowly and correctly from the start. At six, Duke is now showing the rewards of that patient approach. The boys truly are versatile, confidently turning their hooves to every discipline…and neither has been out without a placing this year. This is a wonderful achievement for Millie and Duke…and a true testament to the versatility and quality of the New Forest breed!
