Success
Meadow Stud has continually enjoyed success in breeding quality sport horses and providing British Breeders with stallions that have the ability to improve the British gene pool. Numerous horses by Meadow Stud stallions or bred by Meadow Stud have gone on to impress at shows all across Britain, such as the 2008 Futurity Supreme Champion ‘Woodlea Farm Eleanor’ (by Pro-Set), the 2007 Futurity Champion ‘Pucks Glenn’ (by Pro-Set), the 2007 HOYS champion ‘The Ascoteer’ (by Irco Lhee) as well as Burghley Young Event Horse finalist ‘Master Blaster’ (by Irco Lhee), the 2008 Winter Dressage Championshipe finalist ‘Armani’ (by Libro) and 2008 HOYS WHP winner ‘Springwind Pro-Set (by Pro-Set) to name a few.
Also the quality of our stallions has been recognised abroad with several of them being approved on the continent. Vangelis-S most recently received the ‘thumbs-up’ from the BWP (Belgian Warmblood Sociey) and will therefore also be available to continental breeders.
The team at Meadow Stud takes great pride into being part of British Breeding and are actively encouraging breeders and buyers to support the British Breeding scheme.
