Dude's mother Windsong Ballerina was my

Dude
is a very clever and people orientated horse, he enjoys as much affection as you are willing to give, and has many cheeky
tricks he likes to play. He is a wonderful friend and has broken in to be a well mannered pony hack that has been competing
successfully in the show ring.
Trooper Shannon

Sire: Live Or Die USA
Dam: Ruby Shannon
Colour: Solid Bay
Height: 15.3hh
DOB: 7th November 2005
Trooper Shannon (AKA Troopie) didn't have the easiest start to life. His mother Ruby died shortly
after he was born and poor little Troopie was on his own. His Owners Marie & Peter took care of him and found him a surrogate
mother who raised him. Trooper grew into a beautiful gelding that was a great race horse; he won many races and was a fearsome
competitor. After much racing success Trooper has now retired to Wishaw Glen Stud to live out his days healthy
and happy roaming our grassy paddocks. Troopie is a lovable affection horse that will be retrained for riding which we think
he will enjoy. We first became in involved with Trooper when we leased him in a syndicate with Shannon Springs Standardbreds.
We followed his racing career closely and watched him race many times at Penrith, Bathurst, and Harold Park, with so much
excitement. Trooper has been a fantastic friend and race horse who always put in his best effort despite his hard start to
life. I admire him for his courage and strength that helped him to be the amazing horse he is today, and a horse that will
forever be close to my heart. We Love you our Troopie! Happy retirement and happy eating!!
