Meet Whalley Mystic Diamond; She is a 15.2hh, Welsh Section D who will turn eleven this year. She is owned by Donna Mair, and has been since she was one-day-old. Donna explains: “Mystic was backed when she was four, then was given the Winter off to finish maturing. She was then brought back in to work, however this has been rather stop-start as she has either been injured (sustained in the field) or quite poorly. When Mystic is in work we do general schooling, and hacking out. She does enjoy jumping but we haven’t had a chance to do much of that. She can be your typical chestnut mare at times when times when ridden, and can also be hot headed but that is all part of the fun. Mystic has competed in a few local shows in hand, and some internet showing being placed each time.” “Mystic was born in 2005 out in the field to a black mare called Becky (Laddenbrook Rebecca); and by Welsh Section D Stallion Maesmynach Enchanter at Whalley Stud in Darwen, Lancashire. Mystic’s breeders were expecting a black foal as all of her lines are mostly black until you get very far back. However, out popped Mystic, a bright chestnut with four big white legs! I went up to see her the day after she was born, and put down a deposit there and then. It was love at first sight. I also bought her little/big brother from the same stud. Not a true brother though, he was born a month after Mystic in June 2005.” “I hope to bring Mystic back into proper work in the Summer time, and go out and have some fun with her. Not that we don’t have fun now! Mystic is such a sweetie, she loves to give cuddles and kisses and will do anything for a carrot. You would think she is never fed!”
“I am finding Feedmark’s No Fill to be fabulous, as with the amount of rain we have had lately, the fields are like a mud bath, and she is now having to stay in for longer periods of time. Mystic is doing great and the No Fill seems to be doing as it says and keeping her legs lovely and slim. Hopefully this will carry on throughout the colder months. I will definitely be sticking with No Fill from now on, and would highly recommend to it to anyone whose horse has to stand in. There is always super-fast delivery and great, friendly and helpful staff if you need to speak to anyone regarding a supplement or delivery etc. I have never had problems with Mystic eating No Fill, in fact she has wolfed it down with no problems from day one. My other Welsh D is a fussy eater and will snort at anything new that you put into his feed; however I put some No Fill in there by mistake the other week (aimed for the wrong bucket!) and he didn’t bother at all, it was all gone!”
