Snelsmore Ulysses

Ulysses is a tri-coloured stallion, SPSBS registration no BE1514 & IMHPS registration no 2288104, born on the 22nd of May 2017 by Snelsmore Jasper out of Snelsmore Jacqueline.

Tested to carry the TT colour gene and passed his Voluntary Vetting 2022

As usual Jacqueline decided to take the easy option.

It was a beautiful evening, perfect conditions for having a foal. I was tinkering in the garden, yes you may have guessed right what happened next, great minds think alike Jacqueline had a text book foaling. I quickly abandon pruning my roses to keep an eye on her little colt while she carry on eating. Some things will never change, Jacqueline loves her food !

It doesn’t seem that long ago we made the hard decision to say goodbye to my pride and joy Snelsmore Jasper. So, as I watched his yearling son Snelsmore Ulysses received Supreme of show on his first outing, the memories just came flooding back, tears of joy and sadness. Ulysses is following in Jaspers footsteps and his dam, Snelsmore Jacqueline.
