Hollywood Chief’s Dream

Sire: Kippure Little Big Chief

Sire is a Grade A showjumper and Champion WH, with many successful young stock competing in the UK. Her dam has also bred successful young stock. Suzie is homebred and recently backed and riding. She is forward going, a little green but a very quick learner and ready to further her education. She is a kind, flashy pony with plenty of scope and no vices. Good with the farrier and easy to load.

There is something really special about taking a win at your own County Show and Staffordshire County Show didn’t disappoint for Bea Bailye-Hawkins and Kippure Little Big Chief. They were the only clear in the M&M Open Mixed Height WHP and took the win 🥇

Chief was also an absolute dude jumping clear in the BSPS Heritage M&M Novice Mixed Height WHP for 4th / 18.
