Ushuaia Melody's full brother Tic Tac Melody has won the yearling colt class at the French National Show and went on to be Reserve Champion Junior Male.

Ballywildrick Fear Bui has now been sold to the producer of the Champion ridden Connemara and WHP BOB MARLEY it is hoped he will have a bright competition career ahead of him. We wish his new owner luck and success with this special boy.
