This little lady was worth the fight.

 
     
 
She is so very important to us, as she is one of the very last Kington mares alive- in pure enchanting white.
 
 
Blue Bell is meant for my little darling BIRLING GREY MIRAGE - as they are the perfect mating to keep the line.
 
 
We have high hopes of this perfect couple.
 
 
 
 
KINGTON BLUE BELL casts a spell on every Birling insider- she comes with the most beautiful pedigree one
 
 
could wish for!
 
 
The mother's side of her sire KINGTON PINOCCIO and his unforgotten dam KINGTON CROCUS - one of the most
 
 
beautiful white mares I have ever seen - leads back through to ASHORNE VELVET.
 
 
 
 
ASHORNE VELVET is not only the sire of the fantastic KINGTON CROCUS- he is as well sire of the legendary
 
 
KINGTON PARSLEY- dam of our TOP STALLION BIRLING GREY MIRAGE!
 
 
ASHORNE VELVET comes from the famous ASHORNE stud, founded in the early 1920s by Mrs. Kathleen Grasby.
 
 
 
 
This stud was well-known for their extremely coveted show ponies of the Royal Ballet Company.
 
 
Even the Beatles ordered 2 Ashorne ponies for a Christmas show at Hammersmith Odeon.
 
 
 
 
On top of that- the dam of our KINGTON BLUE BELL - KINGTON POPPY - goes back through her sire
 
 
CASANOVA OF LONGACRE out of PENELOPE OF LONGACRE to the important CHATSWORTH BABY DOLL!
 
 
 
 
CHATSWORTH BABY DOLL is the dam of the legendary TINY OF LONGACRE, Lionel Hamilton Renwick
 
 
paid a little fortune to the what was then Longacre stud (today known as Longmeadow stud) to get this
 
 
little black 28" mare, that has produced countless adorable Birling ponies like BIRLING BEES KNEES and
 
 
BIRLING MIRANDA, who were vital to the success of the British Shetland Breeding.
 
 
 
 
On her mother's side KINGTON POPPY leads again back through her dam KINGTON HONEYSUCKLE to the
 
 
outstanding mare KINGTON CROCUS!
 
 
 
 
We are overhappy to enrich our stud with this breeding diamond.
 
 
 
     
 
Waht a unique chance to keep the Birling Grey Mirage line alive!
