Ellie is the youngest member of the British Paralympic Team (13 yrs old) and has won GOLD in swimming event. Ellie came to our Stud when she was eight years old and rode our Welsh pony Blodwyn. Despite her handicap she had amazing balance and was fearless. Her other interest was swimming which she practiced twice a week.
It soon became apparent that swimming was her real love and pony riding gradually took a back seat and she concentrated wholly on swimming..........the rest is History
Below are pics of Ellie, aged eight years, presenting the rosettes and Sashes at out 2003 British National Foal Of The Year Show
