"Winnie" is a twelve year old Thoroughbred mare
who stands 16.3 hands. She is bay with a very small star and as you can see, has a magnificent hunter-style trot.
Her sire is Shakeel, by the famous Mr Prospector. Her bloodlines read like a "who's who" of Thoroughbred breeding.
Winnie was bred in 2005 to the Swedish Warmblood stallion Ricky Martin of West Wind Farms in Atlanta, Georgia. Born July
27, the filly Resoluut has now been registered PHR & lifetime USEF. This year, she foaled a beautiful uphill filly,
Gabilan, by the Oldenburg-approved stallion Gatsby. This filly will be registered PHR, USEF, and possibly Oldenburg.
Did we mention the repro clinic manager refers to Winnie as a "kind and gentle giant"? She is submissive to the other
mares in the field, and appears to be the "mother hen" of the babies.
