Meet Bergli Gloria.
She is the best Shetland pony filly foal in Shetland 2016 and that is a seriously nice silver rose bowl that she has won.
This is her mother – Bluemull Roseblossom.
You may remember her. This was Roseblossom in March 2015. She was the mare we nursed through hyperlipaemia.
During her horrible illness, she aborted her foal (a strong colt) which physically probably saved her life but mentally hit her hard. Afterwards, after careful thought and consideration, she ran with Wulfert v.d. groote woerd 528 009 05 1119553 (Waffle’s Sire).
This spring she had a beautiful filly foal. She was thrilled. Everything was back to normal.
Darling little Gloria.
And if anyone says to you that Shetland ponies just can’t move like bigger horses and ponies, well then……
…. perhaps refer them to watch Gloria in action.
This little lady floats with ears pricked and a smile on her face!
Stunning, absolutely stunning.
So effortless.
Serious wow!
I could watch her all day.
And she has the most delicious little canter too.
Roseblossom deserves to be happy after all the hell that she went through last year and she is. She has the most beautiful, talented little girl.
The best in Shetland.
I am not surprised. The trophy is well deserved.
On the way home, Foula was looking magical.
I never pass up an opportunity to take photos of Foula when it is looking special.
Well done Roseblossum you have a beautiful little girl. Gloria is gorgeous, her new title is truly deserved.
Oh what a little darling!
This makes me sooooooooo happy! What a darling little filly, and Roseblossom looks so pleased! The photo of her with her foal melts my heart, especially knowing what she went through last year. Kudos to all who helped pull her through! Gloria indeed!
PS Congrats to Bergli Stud!
That that is a perfect ending to a tale if I ever read one!
What a little sweetie!
This is the first time I have seen your blog and will start following! Your mare is beautiful (the dam) and the little girl…. what a doll! So glad to have found your blog!
So happy to see roseblossom…happy…and what lovely names …me thinks a future harness prospect….and a well deserved win..
Congratulations to Gloria – she has brought pride to her owners and love to her mom!
What a wonderful story, Frances.
what a wonderful story ! little Gloria is indeed glorious!!
Wonderful! Always glad to hear good news!
I’m glad that the mom is doing well and congratulations to all who helped mom and filly!
I only wish you had taken some short videos of the trot and canter so we could all admire in unison!
I will see what I can do. I find it very hard to either take a film or to take a photo. I can’t do both. I get muddled in my head of what I am looking for and which button to press!
What an absolute cracker!! I can’t wait for our foal shows to start next month x
Glad to hear Roseblossom has had a much better year. Gloria is lovely!
Lovely to hear after following the Roseblossom story. Gloria is a gem! Thank uou Frances!
