Snelsmore Lily

Lily is a 33.5″ piebald mare, SPSBS registration no AU1199, &  IMHPS registration no 2244004, born on the 16th of April 2008 by Merrylees Satchmo out of Donabi Blueberry.

Lily was sold as a foal and brought back several years later having had a few foals. Since then she been a brood mare at Snelsmore before starting her show career in 2017.

Lily earned her place on our legacy page through the joy, success, and unforgettable moments she gave us in the show ring. Lost far too soon in a tragic accident at a show doing what she loved best, she will always be remembered as our queen and a true champion.
