Monarch is
beautiful solid black mare with quiet disposition. She is by Linnel Rapier
II, a very
successful stallion in terms of performance records (including Olympia).
She also has
somewhat of a unique pedigree (a good thing in a small gene pool!), with her
sire being by Linnel
Romany Boy, whom like his son achieved great success in the show ring.
She is also a direct descendent
of one of the first Fell ponies exported to North America in the 1930's, Linnel
Frivolity. Unfortunately,
Frivolity seems to have been lost to follow-up in North America, but had progeny
in the UK before
she was exported which thus continued her famous line.
