ELPHIN MOUNTAIN CONNEMARAS

*Scottsway Lullaby

1995 Chocolate Dun, 13.2 hh

Abby's sire K. Tam O'Shanter aged 10, and as a foal with his dam K. Sirocco	Abby's dam, Hobban's Lark with full brother to Abby
Abby was imported from England in 1997, and in typical Connemara fashion, handled the 5 hour flight and 3 hour truck ride home from the airport with out batting an eyelid! She was started under saddle in 1998 and is green broken, however her training has been interrupted by her 7 gorgeous foals. Abby's 2000 colt, Elphin Song Sparrow, is standing at stud at Elk Creek Farm in Michigan. Abby is not bred to foal in 2003, and we hope to use this time off to add to her training, both under saddle and in harness. Abby with 2003 filly Lullaby of Birdland. Abby is very well bred, carrying 3 of the only 15 Super Premium Stallion lines. We have great hopes for Abby's future, both as a broodmare and under saddle.   Abby under saddle, November 2000.
