I first saw Christie as a young foal on her dam at the Victorian Welsh Feature Show and instantly fell in love with her despite the fact that she was not what I was looking to buy at the time. She was not for sale however and it was another four months before her breeder, Greg Higgins, finally relented.
Christie was a superstar show pony from the first. I took her to the NSW All Welsh Show as a yearling paranoid that she would not look well enough to satisfy Greg that he had not made a mistake in selling her. I did not need to worry, she was awarded Supreme Champion Section B & Supreme Welsh of the Show.
Christie continued her winning ways with her wins including Best 2 year old Brisbane Royal, Supreme National Stud Pony Show, Supreme Champion Welsh Section B NSW All Welsh Show (as a brood mare) and finally Supreme Champion Section B Sydney Royal after which she was retired.
Christie has also proved to be an outstanding brood mare with all her foals shown to date being Royal Champions.
