Softie - “We will all miss you”

Softie or (Brockholm Mr Softie as was his competition name) we had the very great pleasure to have owned him from his birth to present day covering almost 30 years.


Through his younger years he competed successfully in Unaffiliated Show Jumping , Cross Country & Dressage with different members of the family as well as performing in Side Saddle Pas De Deux Demos at Gleneagles .Indeed he was the last horse Mr Comrie ever fell off of in competition, quite an accolade given Mr Comrie’s competition experience!!


He was a wonderful character  to work with, cheeky & very talented all rolled in to one and he will be sorely missed by many, from those clients who have been riding with us since Softie was a youngster in his “Hey Day” to those clients who have been learning to ride on him in his later years.


We will miss him always.

Messages From Clients For Softie

Softie will be very sadly missed, he was a one off.  We had lots of scrapes together but it was always a privilege to ride him, though I could do without the Osteopath bills now!  Maybe that wasn’t his fault, it could have been the rabbit that ran out from under the jump or the bird that happened to fly out of the grass near him…

To Softie,
 
So sad you passed before I got to ride you. You were a great sport and fun to have in a lesson. Also you were adorable! You will be greatly missed by everyone.
 
Love from Olivia Rhodes
