Individual Legion of Merit

Goldhills Master Bronze LOM Goldhills Master Bronze was purchased from Goldhills Welsh. We already owned his full sister Goldhills Makebelieve Princess and were so impressed by the cross of the stunning imported stallion *Wedderlie Mardi Gras LOM and the exceptional performance and halter mare Goldhills Mystique LOM/AOE that we jumped at the chance to own a repeat of the cross. I had only seen Bronze a few times at shows but I knew I had made a great decision when I turned him out to watch him move. He was just took my breath away. Bronze had a very tough act to follow with his big sister, Tiara, winning both a WPCSA English Pleasure National High Score Championship and an LOM her first year under saddle. He was up to the challenge. Capturing the WPCSA Reserve Champion B colt title in 2009 he was ready to embark on his performance career in 2010. Bronze was an exceptionally easy start and needed very little training to polish his significant talents. His natural balance and cadence made both English and Western Pleasure effortless for him. Bronze, apparently intent on outdoing his sister, had an amazing 2010 show season. In just six shows under saddle, he completed his 500 performance points. Bronze finished his Individual LOM in just a handful more shows. He was 3 yrs and 3 months of age at the time of completion, mere days younger than his sister had been. In his first performance season, Bronze earned Supreme Champion, Twenty Division Championships and both the WPCSA Adult AB English and Western National High Score Championships. Now that is sibling rivalry. With all this, we feel that Bronze has just begun to shine. He may already have earned a lifetime achievement award, but we expect even better things from this young stallion in the future.
