Hartland All For The Best
(Phantom
of the Opera X Hartland Best of All by Courage of Equinox)
14.3 h bay mare f. 19
Unknown
to us at the time that we sold her, it looks as if Allie will be Bess's
only daughter. From the age of three Allie has lived on the island
of Martha's Vineyard, as the fulfillment of a life-long "horse
dream" for owner Susanna Sturgis. Susanna had grown up riding
borrowed Morgans in a 4-H club led by Phyllis Cox, who loaned her
the
retired
show champion Lord Jeff
(Upwey Ben
Don X Junior Miss) for her 4-H project. Allie and Susanna are learning
about dressage and inventing a variety of projects to enjoy together.
They are pictured here at the annual Martha's Vineyard Horse Council
pace ride in October 2003 (photo by Cindy Bonnell).
