Fantastic artist
I think this was on show at a National Show not Malvern or Ascot
Marylin can you help? And was it modelled on a living horse?
Bob
The original sculpture was shown at Ascot in about 1982 - not cast until many, many years later. I have several of PduB's Rydal models, as well as some of the Frankline Mint pieces but the latter are not good representations of the quality of her work - very badly finished in many cases. Like most FM issues they haven't held value on the secondary market and can be picked up fairly cheaply on ebay!

The first Pamela du Boulay bronzes I saw were at Jean Kirch's house, they were magnificent. I then tried to buy one for myself sadly with no success.
I have some of Karen Kasper and Judy Nordquist's bronzes but would love to have a Du Boulay if anyone can be of help in locating one?

| Pamela is a dear friend of mine and until December was a close neighbour. She has some superb pieces in her own home but sadly lost the will to work on any sculptures for quite a long time after the death of her husband. However, she was really getting back into the swing of it last year and long may it continue, her work is unique. |

For those interested,
check out www.animalartistry.co.uk and look for Garretts of Hereford on the bottom left side of home page.
Underneath that you will see Pamela Du Boulay.

You’ll be pleased to know that I spoke to Pam last night and she is busy working on a new project but it’s not equestrian related I’m afraid. To those who are interested, the secret of her success is being a gifted horsewoman and spending many years studying equine and animal anatomy in great detail. Fortunately, it’s a lesson she taught me well but it does spoil you for looking at some other artwork – you can see some amazing anatomical errors and impossibilities!
Back to Muscat; He was bred in Russia by Salon (Negativ x Sonata) out of Malpia (Priboj x Mammona by Ofir). He was purchased by Howard Kale and exported to the USA where Muscat became a very influential sire. Interestingly, Muscat was the stallion that money “couldn’t buy” and it took Howard Kale 13 trips over a 3 year period to secure him. According to ‘The Dam Lines of Tersk’ by Dr. Dee B Whittlesey Muscat’s purchase “was effected through the selection and trade of 2 of the top Standardbred stallions in the US. The exchange of lead ropes was made at the Polish border. A very nervous 20 hours later, Howie (who was driving the van through Poland and East Germany) arrived safely in Holland with Muscat….and a new chapter in Arabian history was written.”

Was he bred by the Backhouses on Horsey Island? Have a horse in mind but his name escapes me!
(I don't have the chance to look things up, have to drag it all out of memory )

If you need yet another hint, look at where I come from
Y'all got the books - you can figure it out I'm sure.
Also, his dam was definitely not a war horse.

WELL DONE
Pacific (Nasmeshnik x Peace) was exported to Denmark in 75 where, according to the Danish stud book, he sired 67 foals. There are some others that were foled in other countries.
He was bought by Harry and Jean Laursen and stayed with them until he died, siring a dynasty of broodmares and quality riding horses.
Pacific was one of the most influential stallions in Denmark
He was shown once at the Danish National Show in 1980 where he got a gold medal and was Stallion Champion.
