Broughtons Mill is a grey Thoroughbred gelding, born on 10th March 1995.
He ran his first race at Newmarket on 19th July 1997 where he came 6th out of 12 runners.
His 'career' was less than illustrious, and having been raced on the flat, and over jumps, he ran his last race at Market Rasen on 9th June 2004.
His history in recent years is decidedly sketchy, but he was, up until the present time, used for hacking and funrides, and came to us on Saturday 24th March 2007 in a rather sad and sorry state.
This diary will hopefully record his progress.
Meet Snowy...
Bath Time
This pic shows quite graphically, just how poor he is under his fluffy fur. Heart breaking...
Week One
Week Two
Week Three
A better pic than last weeks, which was quite deceptive due to the angle the pic was taken at
Week Three - Rear View
This has been posted to compare with the initial pic showing his protruding pelvic bones...
Side view of mouth this morning
Front view
...and another front view.
And a full body shot...
Ridden for the first time
Odd how Abs had her hat with her ;o)
A little updated pic - hacking out.

Muddy and furry and refusing to take his head out of his feed bucket!
