PBSA Youngstock Show 2022
The Pony Breeders of Shetland Association held their annual Young Stock show at Shetland Marts on Sunday 13th November. Thankfully the weather was kind to all involved. There were record entries this year with 91 ponies competing. In a change to the norm the PBSA also took the opportunity to hold their annual general meeting in the sale ring during the lunch break. Chairperson Sheena Anderson commented that it had led to a good turnout of members and a constructive meeting.
The judge, Mr John Harrison from Lancashire, was delighted with the standard of the ponies commenting that there were some excellent ponies forward and that it was the best class of standard filly foals that he had judged in a considerable number of years. Show organiser, Steve Rendall, thanked Mr Harrison for all his hard work during the day and for making the journey up to Judges. Thanks also to Arianne Fraser for Stewarding for the day and to everyone who helped make the day such a success, in particular the exhibitors for showing their ponies.
The overall honours for 2022 were taken by the 2 year old black filly Muness Shadow from Muness Stud in Unst, with Musselbrough Lottie, piebald standard filly foal from Musselbrough Stud in Unst, taking Reserve Champion. Shadow also won the trophies for best standard pony and also best exhibitor bred pony.
This year’s young handler champion was Julie Williamson, from Vidlin, with her own Hollydell Rannoch.
We look forward to seeing everyone again next year.
