The girls had a day out at Gorefield Show yesterday☀️

Winestead Lincoln Lady Sophia taking Reserve Champion Shire AND another win for Billy Bleach Farrier taking the win for the Best Shod🏆 I know Alex would be beaming💙

It was the first outing for Ruskington Lincoln Lady Fern, sired by Acle Apollo and she took it all in her stride, behaving impeccably at just 3 months old🩷🥇
