“We sell the majority of our foals<br />
at weaning and they have such<br />
trainable temperaments that they sell to<br />
professional riders and amateurs alike.<br />
Youngstock sales were going really well<br />
before the lockdown, and we have 3<br />
cracking new foals this year. We keep<br />
some – I have two Darco colts at the<br />
moment, one was a futurity champion<br />
last year and we have just had his full<br />
brother. I want to keep one as a stallion,<br />
so will have to make a choice. It is<br />
important to have the next generation<br />
of stallions to keep improving the<br />
lines”, explains Hazel. “I have always<br />
liked working with stallions. Perhaps I<br />
am lucky to have such lovely stallions<br />
to work with but then that is not by<br />
accident! My 11 year old daughter was<br />
having lessons on Carthago Chicago<br />
before the lockdown”.<br />

WG Stud has always been a supporter<br />
of <strong>British</strong> breeding and especially the<br />
Futurity Evaluations, with Silvester’s<br />
progeny having been awarded 11 Elites<br />
to date. Let’s hope their new venture will<br />
help bring many more.<br />
