It is with unbelievable sadness that today we lost Escley Tulaga.
Toots proved herself to be the best and most loving pony and member of our family from the minute we first set eyes on her in 1991, when we were privileged to be allowed to buy her from Dorothy Parker Dean, until her final day and we will never forget her.
We were glad to meet her breeder, Mrs Hunter, at Olympia in 1995 to watch her final appearance before Toots retired from ridden showing, already in foal.
She was simply the best.

Meant to add, I have no respect for her breeder Mrs Hunter, who would have gladly sent her to slaughter had I not been there.

Just wanted to say how very sorry we are to hear that Janet and her family have lost a beautiful friend in Toots, dont be too sad, remember all the fantastic times she gave you, she was a real star and a one in a million. I remember her in her prime, at the county shows and then Olympia, she gave her best to you and was loved and treasured by you all, thinking of you.
