Grand National 2009  
     
  Kolbeach Memoir wins the "Godfreys Carpet Choice" Grand National Small Saddle Pony  
     
 

Seven year old Kolbeach Memoir out of Radnor Memories by Carmague Tribute looked and worked a treat before English judge Ms Kirstine Douglas to take honors at the prestigious Grand National Show.  Held at Sydney’s magnificent International Equestrian Centre -  Horsely Park and showcasing the best horses and ponies in the country the size and quality of the Show pony classes was outstanding. Kolbeach were thrilled to hear of not only of Meme’s brilliant success for the Anderson family, but also the success of many other Kolbeach ponies and galloways in making the final line ups including, Swell, Vogue, Promise and Classic.

Meme was bought as a 2yo from the stud by Karen Anderson for her then 10 yr old daughter Ashlee. Ashlee rode ‘Meme’ to win the 2005 South Australian EFA Newcomer class. Success in open classes was soon on the agenda with 2006 RU EFA Small POTY at the SA Showhorse Council HOTY show and Champion of Champions Show. In Feb 2007 Meme was a popular runner-up of the EFA Small POTY. Following a break due to EI by 2008 Ashley had outgrown Meme and it was time for 9yr old sibling Jasmine to take over the ride. With maturity and experience under his belt Meme’s success was growing by being declared 2008 EFA SA Small POTY, SA Showhorse Council Small POTY, and SA Champion of Champion Small POTY. April 2009 and Meme’s career is highlighted by wining the Grand National Small Pony of the Year. Meme is a treasured member of the Anderson family and Kolbeach are delighted with the success he has achieved with them.
