Took Flash to his first show down south and bless him, he won the youngstock class and beat six welshies!!! He was an absolute star and behaved impeccably in spite of having to hang about for two hours because the class was running so late. We didn't do anything in the championship as he was the only baby and everthing else was yet again Welsh! In all the native in hand classes there was only Flash being a different breed, every single pony was.........yes, you've guessed it......Welsh!!!!! I think the judge must have a Welsh judge but he did like Flash and said if there had been a rosette for the best boy he would have won it! He did actually get best gelding too! Only one pic of him and I think he was getting sleepy as it was about 29degrees out there! I must just say that Colin and Karen have raised a beautiful pony!!!!
