64956 Friars Choice (1979) 64956 Friars Choice (1979)

 

Choice is now 25 years old and with a colt foal by Putwell Carreg Llwyd at foot this year.

Choice arrived with us at the end of March 1980 after purchasing her from the Friars Stud as a 4 week old foal in 1979. Choice has won too many prizes to mention during her 23 years and has given us some lovely daughters, not to mention the immense pleasure we have had showing and breeding from her. There are currently six of Choice’s daughters currently in the stud, Ruperra Charm, Ruperra Crystal, Ruperra Cariad Llwyd, Ruperra Catrin, Ruperra Chablis & Ruperra Choice.

Another grand old lady at 25 years old

Rosebud came to Putwell in 1995, although it wasn’t the first time we had met – she originally came to South Wales in the same trailer as her half sister F. Choice in 1980, but was sold on by her owner, Les Evans at a later date. Rosebud was in foal when she arrived and produced a beautiful chestnut filly, Putwell Rhoslyn by Minsterley Leon. Another filly, Putwell Rosemary, owned by Jackie Wilson, Exeter is also a prizewinner in the South West area.
