Other Info: Brett has a wonderful temperament and lovely paces. He was shown successfully in hand as a yearling by the Waxwing Stud. Since then he has been allowed to mature slowly before being produced successfully Under Saddle in 2003 by Kris McCall in Working Hunter Pony and Ridden Show Classes, qualifying for both the Picton and Ffrethi Finals at Malvern, where he finished 2nd and 7th respectively, and the Kingsford Final at Ponies (UK).
During 2004, whilst being ridden by Anna Craigie, Brett took several Championships and Reserve Championships both Under Saddle and WHP, including the M&M Under Saddle Reserve Championship at The Royal Highland Show. In late 2004, his ride passed to Kathryn Duncan who has qualified him for the Scottish Farmer Prelim Dressage Finals at Rowallen in March, 2005. Kathryn will concentrate on Performance work with him in 2005 but will also continue to show him Under Saddle occasionally. At the beginning of May, Kathryn rode Brett at their first Show together, the Ponies UK Scottish Festival. On the sunday in the qualifying rounds, they were Reserve Champions in the Open M&M Ridden , qualifying for the finals where they finished fifth. The following day they also competed in the Open M&M Ridden class where they finished third and in the Prelim 16 Dressage which they won.

Throughout 2005 Kathryn and Brett continued their successful ways with both Dressage and Riding Club activities culminating in them winning the NERC (Scotland) Prelim. Combined Training Trophy and the award for the Under 21 Dressage Rider of the Year. In 2006, these activities will be somewhat curtailed as Kathryn is sitting her Highers before, hopefully, heading off to university in October.
Having completed the 2006 season by taking the Supreme Ridden Championship at the SWPCA Winter Show, Brett was permanently retired from the showring and will instead continue to pursue his dressage career which had run in tandem with his showing career.

In 2009, Brett went on loan to Jane Eddie following an injury to her own horse, Durris Galeforce. Over the last 6 months the pair have been having a ball together with some great results as seen in our successes section. Brett and Jane have forged such a good bond and partnership, that he is staying with her indefinitely.
