-A young farrier -from Montgomeryshire... | 0:00:27 | 0:00:30 | |
-..made sparks fly at the this year's -Royal Welsh Show in Llanelwedd. | 0:00:30 | 0:00:35 | |
-For a good cob, the show -in Llanelwedd is the place to be. | 0:00:35 | 0:00:39 | |
-You have the crowd behind you. | 0:00:40 | 0:00:42 | |
-There's no better place. | 0:00:43 | 0:00:45 | |
-No doubt about it... | 0:00:46 | 0:00:48 | |
-..Dorian Lloyd's achievements -were the highlight of the 2015 show. | 0:00:48 | 0:00:53 | |
-He won the Triple Crown -of the Welsh cob world... | 0:00:53 | 0:00:56 | |
-..including the championship. | 0:00:56 | 0:00:58 | |
-It's no surprise, is it? | 0:01:01 | 0:01:03 | |
-Dorian Lloyd, the farrier... | 0:01:04 | 0:01:07 | |
-..and Perthog Gwenan Mai... | 0:01:07 | 0:01:10 | |
-..are awarded -the George Prince of Wales Cup. | 0:01:10 | 0:01:13 | |
-Back in May... | 0:01:24 | 0:01:26 | |
-..I had the pleasure of visiting -Dorian and his wife, Michelle... | 0:01:26 | 0:01:31 | |
-..at their home. | 0:01:31 | 0:01:32 | |
-The farm stands above Llanfechain -in glorious Montgomeryshire. | 0:01:33 | 0:01:38 | |
-The forge, housed in a shed... | 0:01:39 | 0:01:41 | |
-..on the farm. | 0:01:41 | 0:01:43 | |
-..is home to Dorian's -successful business. | 0:01:43 | 0:01:46 | |
-Why did you choose -this line of work? | 0:01:49 | 0:01:52 | |
-There are no farriers -in your family... | 0:01:52 | 0:01:55 | |
-..though there are -excellent stockmen. | 0:01:56 | 0:01:59 | |
-I was raised on a farm. | 0:01:59 | 0:02:01 | |
-I come from a long line of farmers -on both sides of the family. | 0:02:01 | 0:02:06 | |
-Farming would have been -the obvious choice for me. | 0:02:07 | 0:02:10 | |
-But I've always been keen on horses. | 0:02:11 | 0:02:13 | |
-Mam and Dad didn't really want me -to turn my back on farming... | 0:02:14 | 0:02:18 | |
-..but they were happy enough -for me to find another job... | 0:02:19 | 0:02:23 | |
-..so I wouldn't -have to rely on farming. | 0:02:23 | 0:02:26 | |
-Fifteen or 20 years ago, -farming was in a tight corner. | 0:02:26 | 0:02:30 | |
-I've been fortunate in my work. | 0:02:30 | 0:02:33 | |
-There's plenty of work to be had - -too much, almost. | 0:02:33 | 0:02:37 | |
-People say there are more horses -than cattle in the area. | 0:02:37 | 0:02:41 | |
-Horses are no longer used -for work on farms... | 0:02:42 | 0:02:45 | |
-..and the industry -relies a lot on leisure. | 0:02:45 | 0:02:49 | |
-And important corner, Dorian! | 0:02:54 | 0:02:56 | |
-Yes, an important corner! | 0:02:56 | 0:02:58 | |
-This is where everything is stored. | 0:02:59 | 0:03:01 | |
-A small corner. | 0:03:01 | 0:03:03 | |
-You make most of your horseshoes -from scratch. | 0:03:03 | 0:03:06 | |
-Yes, as many as we can. | 0:03:06 | 0:03:08 | |
-But we don't have time -to make every single horseshoe. | 0:03:09 | 0:03:13 | |
-When you're showing Welsh cobs, it's -important that they lift their feet. | 0:03:14 | 0:03:20 | |
-Is the weight of a shoe significant? | 0:03:20 | 0:03:22 | |
-Is the weight of a shoe significant? - -Yes. | 0:03:22 | 0:03:23 | |
-These are cobs' shoes. | 0:03:23 | 0:03:25 | |
-It's a particular type -of horseshoe - it's heavier. | 0:03:25 | 0:03:29 | |
-When cobs move... | 0:03:30 | 0:03:32 | |
-..people like to see plenty -of knee action, as it's called. | 0:03:32 | 0:03:36 | |
-Cobs lift their feet -and they can cover a lot of ground. | 0:03:36 | 0:03:40 | |
-There are shoes -of different weights. | 0:03:40 | 0:03:43 | |
-These horseshoes are aluminium - -a horse would hardly feel them. | 0:03:44 | 0:03:48 | |
-They're used on racehorses -and show ponies. | 0:03:48 | 0:03:51 | |
-Cobs are a completely -different case. | 0:03:52 | 0:03:56 | |
-Cobs like to pick their knees up -in order to cover the ground. | 0:03:56 | 0:04:00 | |
-Ponies prefer a lighter shoe and -they don't flex their knees so much. | 0:04:00 | 0:04:06 | |
-What about show jumping? | 0:04:07 | 0:04:09 | |
-Your wife is a keen show jumper. | 0:04:09 | 0:04:11 | |
-Show jumping shoes are similar -to ordinary horseshoes... | 0:04:11 | 0:04:16 | |
-..but they feature -what we call stud holes. | 0:04:16 | 0:04:21 | |
-Basically, there's a thread -within the hole... | 0:04:22 | 0:04:26 | |
-..and it's exactly the same -as fitting studs to rugby boots. | 0:04:26 | 0:04:30 | |
-There are studs you can fit -to provide a better grip... | 0:04:31 | 0:04:35 | |
-..so when you're competing, the -extra grip allows better jumping. | 0:04:35 | 0:04:40 | |
-Feet are the most important parts -of the body... | 0:04:42 | 0:04:46 | |
-..for humans as well as horses. | 0:04:46 | 0:04:49 | |
-Yes, they're important. | 0:04:49 | 0:04:51 | |
-If we're talking about cobs... | 0:04:52 | 0:04:54 | |
-..feet make the difference between -moving well and not moving at all. | 0:04:54 | 0:04:59 | |
-A horse that feels good on its feet, -feels good in itself... | 0:04:59 | 0:05:04 | |
-..and it performs better. | 0:05:05 | 0:05:07 | |
-The forge is a brand-new investment -as the business grows. | 0:05:07 | 0:05:11 | |
-But in a rural area, a farrier -must travel to his customers. | 0:05:12 | 0:05:17 | |
-The blue van -is a four-wheeled forge. | 0:05:17 | 0:05:20 | |
-Everything you need is in here. | 0:05:21 | 0:05:23 | |
-Yes, everything I need -when I'm out shoeing horses. | 0:05:23 | 0:05:28 | |
-This provides fire - -what we call a forge. | 0:05:28 | 0:05:31 | |
-It's fuelled by the gas containers -at the front. | 0:05:31 | 0:05:34 | |
-There's a stand that holds -the anvil - a vital piece of kit. | 0:05:35 | 0:05:39 | |
-There are other things -that make my life easier. | 0:05:40 | 0:05:43 | |
-Drawers to hold nails. | 0:05:43 | 0:05:45 | |
-There are different sizes and -thicknesses, for various purposes. | 0:05:45 | 0:05:50 | |
-There are tools I use -to make or adapt horseshoes. | 0:05:50 | 0:05:55 | |
-Good gracious. | 0:05:56 | 0:05:57 | |
-What's that belt? | 0:05:57 | 0:05:59 | |
-The belt is called a linisher - -a type of belt grinder. | 0:05:59 | 0:06:03 | |
-It spins, -and it runs on electricity. | 0:06:03 | 0:06:06 | |
-It's used to smooth -the edge of a horseshoe... | 0:06:06 | 0:06:10 | |
-..so there aren't -any sharp surfaces. | 0:06:10 | 0:06:13 | |
-I'll come with you, -but don't ask me to fetch anything! | 0:06:13 | 0:06:17 | |
-I'll fetch and carry, -you can do the shoeing! | 0:06:17 | 0:06:20 | |
-How old were you when you moved -from Machynlleth to Llanfechain? | 0:06:29 | 0:06:34 | |
-I began attending a college -in Herefordshire... | 0:06:34 | 0:06:38 | |
-..when I was 16 years old... | 0:06:38 | 0:06:40 | |
-..and then I served -my apprenticeship... | 0:06:40 | 0:06:43 | |
-..with a local farrier in Welshpool. | 0:06:44 | 0:06:47 | |
-I was 17 years old -when I started working with him. | 0:06:47 | 0:06:51 | |
-So I've been living in this area -ever since. | 0:06:51 | 0:06:54 | |
-It's six or seven years since -I came to live here permanently. | 0:06:54 | 0:06:59 | |
-The years fly by. | 0:06:59 | 0:07:01 | |
-Lots of horses are kept -in this area. | 0:07:06 | 0:07:09 | |
-Yes, and lots of different horses -doing various types of things. | 0:07:09 | 0:07:14 | |
-There isn't a heavy concentration -of show horses, or cobs... | 0:07:14 | 0:07:19 | |
-..or hunters. | 0:07:19 | 0:07:20 | |
-There's a bit of everything, -all types of horses... | 0:07:21 | 0:07:24 | |
-..from racehorses to Shetlands -to huge Shire horses. | 0:07:25 | 0:07:29 | |
-For a farrier, it's good to be able -to shoe all kinds of horses. | 0:07:30 | 0:07:34 | |
-I'm sure it is. | 0:07:34 | 0:07:36 | |
-There's something very special -about these horses. | 0:07:44 | 0:07:48 | |
-They're show jumpers. | 0:07:48 | 0:07:50 | |
-They compete at a high level, -and they travel all over Europe. | 0:07:51 | 0:07:57 | |
-Some of the horses -have just come back... | 0:07:58 | 0:08:01 | |
-..after two or three weeks in Italy. | 0:08:02 | 0:08:04 | |
-I usually shoe them a week or so -before they leave... | 0:08:05 | 0:08:08 | |
-..so they'll be well-shod -for competing. | 0:08:09 | 0:08:12 | |
-Have you ever been injured -or kicked? | 0:08:12 | 0:08:16 | |
-Yes, once or twice. | 0:08:17 | 0:08:19 | |
-Unfortunately, -it comes with the job. | 0:08:20 | 0:08:23 | |
-Yes, I've been belted a few times. | 0:08:24 | 0:08:26 | |
-You brush yourself off and carry on. | 0:08:27 | 0:08:29 | |
-Have you ever been kicked -after presenting your bill?! | 0:08:30 | 0:08:34 | |
-No - that would hurt a great deal! | 0:08:34 | 0:08:36 | |
-What a healthy smell from that hoof! | 0:08:37 | 0:08:39 | |
-Yes! | 0:08:40 | 0:08:41 | |
-Your nose is further away from it -than mine! | 0:08:43 | 0:08:46 | |
-People place their pride and joy -in your hands... | 0:08:52 | 0:08:55 | |
-..and you hammer nails -into their precious horse! | 0:08:56 | 0:08:59 | |
-Some people have more regard -for their horse than their partner! | 0:09:00 | 0:09:04 | |
-You could make -the world's best horseshoes... | 0:09:05 | 0:09:09 | |
-..but if you can't handle horses, -you're in trouble. | 0:09:09 | 0:09:13 | |
-You need to understand horses, -and horses must have faith in you. | 0:09:13 | 0:09:17 | |
-Horses must feel safe -when you're handling their feet. | 0:09:18 | 0:09:22 | |
-It takes years of practice. | 0:09:23 | 0:09:25 | |
-It's a major part of the work. | 0:09:25 | 0:09:27 | |
-She shied a bit, just now - -did something spook her? | 0:09:42 | 0:09:47 | |
-Yes, she was spooked by the smoke. | 0:09:47 | 0:09:51 | |
-I don't think she's experienced -hot shoeing before. | 0:09:52 | 0:09:56 | |
-With hot shoeing, you apply -a hot shoe to the hoof... | 0:09:56 | 0:10:00 | |
-..so that it becomes -part of the foot. | 0:10:00 | 0:10:03 | |
-In Ireland, they don't always -practise hot shoeing... | 0:10:03 | 0:10:07 | |
-..and this mare -has just come from Ireland. | 0:10:07 | 0:10:10 | |
-When you apply a hot shoe, -it causes noise and smoke... | 0:10:10 | 0:10:14 | |
-..which spooked her. | 0:10:14 | 0:10:16 | |
-She might be happier -with cold shoeing instead... | 0:10:16 | 0:10:20 | |
-..and if she's happy, I'm happy. | 0:10:20 | 0:10:22 | |
-There's a common saying... | 0:10:23 | 0:10:25 | |
-.."In the sweat of thy face -shalt thou eat bread." | 0:10:25 | 0:10:29 | |
-In my opinion, -you fully deserve a Swiss roll! | 0:10:29 | 0:10:32 | |
-How big is your catchment area? | 0:10:41 | 0:10:44 | |
-All my clients are within -an hour's journey from home. | 0:10:44 | 0:10:48 | |
-I may spend all day -at one location... | 0:10:48 | 0:10:51 | |
-..or I may split the day -between several locations... | 0:10:52 | 0:10:56 | |
-..two, or eight, or ten. | 0:10:56 | 0:10:58 | |
-It all depends on the work -that needs doing... | 0:10:58 | 0:11:02 | |
-..and how often the phone rings. | 0:11:02 | 0:11:04 | |
-The next job is on the outskirts -of Llanfair Caereinion. | 0:11:07 | 0:11:11 | |
-A good customer and friend, and -a fellow champion cob breeder. | 0:11:11 | 0:11:16 | |
-It's the television commentator -David Oliver. | 0:11:16 | 0:11:19 | |
-Alright? | 0:11:22 | 0:11:23 | |
-How are you? | 0:11:24 | 0:11:25 | |
-How are you? - -Fine, thanks. | 0:11:25 | 0:11:26 | |
-It's nice to see you at home. | 0:11:26 | 0:11:28 | |
-Are you ready? | 0:11:28 | 0:11:30 | |
-The mare's in the shed. | 0:11:30 | 0:11:32 | |
-Are you happy with my apprentice? | 0:11:32 | 0:11:34 | |
-We'll see! | 0:11:35 | 0:11:36 | |
-If the mare doesn't measure up, -we'll be off! | 0:11:36 | 0:11:40 | |
-She has good feet, David. | 0:12:02 | 0:12:04 | |
-Yes. | 0:12:05 | 0:12:06 | |
-She's been kept inside all winter. | 0:12:06 | 0:12:09 | |
-She hasn't been touched since -last summer, so she needs trimming. | 0:12:09 | 0:12:14 | |
-It's good to have a mobile farrier. | 0:12:14 | 0:12:16 | |
-Good farriers are hard to find. | 0:12:16 | 0:12:19 | |
-We're lucky to have Dorian. | 0:12:19 | 0:12:21 | |
-We've been clients -ever since he qualified. | 0:12:21 | 0:12:24 | |
-It's nice, at shows, when judges -praise the way horses are shod. | 0:12:25 | 0:12:30 | |
-Feet can change -a horse's appearance. | 0:12:30 | 0:12:33 | |
-Feet must be at the correct angle. | 0:12:33 | 0:12:36 | |
-It's amazing, how this can alter -the angle of the leg as a whole. | 0:12:36 | 0:12:41 | |
-You can't build a house -on poor foundations. | 0:12:41 | 0:12:44 | |
-Thank you. | 0:12:49 | 0:12:51 | |
-She's looking better, now. | 0:12:51 | 0:12:52 | |
-She's looking better, now. - -Yes, much better. | 0:12:52 | 0:12:54 | |
-She'll be able to move faster. | 0:12:55 | 0:12:57 | |
-Paying is the difficult part! | 0:12:58 | 0:13:00 | |

-The rolling hills -on Montgomeryshire's border... | 0:13:18 | 0:13:22 | |
-..provide a backdrop for farrier and -champion cob breeder Dorian Lloyd. | 0:13:22 | 0:13:28 | |
-Meifod and the towns of Oswestry -and Welshpool are nearby. | 0:13:28 | 0:13:32 | |
-The family farm stands above -the village of Llanfechain. | 0:13:33 | 0:13:37 | |
-The farm is called Bryncynfelin... | 0:13:39 | 0:13:41 | |
-..and Dorian and Michelle's home -is called Llety'r Gof. | 0:13:41 | 0:13:47 | |
-The young couple's new home stands -on the site of an old cowshed... | 0:13:50 | 0:13:54 | |
-..in a delightful spot. | 0:13:54 | 0:13:56 | |
-The view is magnificent. | 0:13:57 | 0:13:59 | |
-Yes, we're very fortunate. | 0:14:00 | 0:14:03 | |
-It's a typically Welsh view. | 0:14:03 | 0:14:05 | |
-Your wife was raised on this farm. | 0:14:07 | 0:14:09 | |
-Yes. | 0:14:09 | 0:14:11 | |
-Did you meet -at the Young Farmers' Club? | 0:14:11 | 0:14:14 | |
-No, we met -during my apprenticeship... | 0:14:14 | 0:14:17 | |
-..when I came here to shoe horses. | 0:14:17 | 0:14:20 | |
-I thought you were talking about -your apprenticeship in courting! | 0:14:21 | 0:14:26 | |
-That came later! | 0:14:27 | 0:14:28 | |
-When I was an apprentice, -I'd come here to shoe horses. | 0:14:29 | 0:14:32 | |
-Michelle made the most -of the opportunity! | 0:14:34 | 0:14:37 | |
-We're very fortunate. | 0:14:40 | 0:14:42 | |
-We have a shared interest in horses. | 0:14:42 | 0:14:44 | |
-I like to think -we work well as a team. | 0:14:45 | 0:14:48 | |
-These horses are something else, -Michelle. | 0:14:53 | 0:14:56 | |
-Or I'm told they call you Mickey. | 0:14:56 | 0:14:59 | |
-Yes, they do. | 0:14:59 | 0:15:00 | |
-Most people know me as Mickey. | 0:15:00 | 0:15:03 | |
-The interests are different, -but they're all horses. | 0:15:03 | 0:15:07 | |
-Show jumping and eventing -is your world. | 0:15:08 | 0:15:11 | |
-Always has been... | 0:15:11 | 0:15:13 | |
-..from when I was a young girl. | 0:15:13 | 0:15:16 | |
-My taid always used to take me -around the shows at weekends. | 0:15:17 | 0:15:23 | |
-I think he's to blame, really, -that I've gone into horses. | 0:15:23 | 0:15:28 | |
-But, you know, -a good horse is a good horse... | 0:15:28 | 0:15:31 | |
-..after all's said and done. | 0:15:32 | 0:15:34 | |
-The cobs and your jumping horses -fit in, hand in glove. | 0:15:34 | 0:15:38 | |
-Yes, they do. | 0:15:38 | 0:15:39 | |
-A horse is a horse. | 0:15:40 | 0:15:42 | |
-We look for the same things -in both types of breeds. | 0:15:42 | 0:15:46 | |
-Obviously, they're doing -two different jobs... | 0:15:46 | 0:15:50 | |
-..but we want them to be right -with their bloodlines... | 0:15:50 | 0:15:54 | |
-..and we look for conformation for -them to do each individual job. | 0:15:54 | 0:15:58 | |
-No other horse in the world -can compare with cobs. | 0:16:04 | 0:16:07 | |
-No, not in my opinion. | 0:16:07 | 0:16:09 | |
-At its best, -a cob is a wonderful horse. | 0:16:09 | 0:16:14 | |
-It's marvellous, the way they move. | 0:16:15 | 0:16:18 | |
-Were there cobs at the farm -before you arrived? | 0:16:18 | 0:16:21 | |
-No. | 0:16:22 | 0:16:22 | |
-No. - -You were the first cob! | 0:16:22 | 0:16:24 | |
-Yes! | 0:16:24 | 0:16:26 | |
-The rest of the cobs soon followed. | 0:16:26 | 0:16:29 | |
-Previously, Michelle's family -kept show jumpers and eventers... | 0:16:29 | 0:16:34 | |
-..warmbloods and thoroughbreds... | 0:16:34 | 0:16:36 | |
-..though Michelle's grandfather -also bred Shire horses... | 0:16:37 | 0:16:41 | |
-..and he became interested -in cobs as well. | 0:16:41 | 0:16:46 | |
-Now, we have more cobs - -they're slowly taking over. | 0:16:46 | 0:16:50 | |
-Tell me about the foal's sire. | 0:16:50 | 0:16:53 | |
-The foal's sire is called Orient -Express - we call him Chuffer. | 0:16:53 | 0:16:57 | |
-He's one of our own stallions. | 0:16:57 | 0:16:59 | |
-The mare is called Rhosyn Gwyn. | 0:17:00 | 0:17:02 | |
-Are there any particular bloodlines -that interest you? | 0:17:02 | 0:17:06 | |
-You're establishing your own herd. | 0:17:06 | 0:17:09 | |
-I want something that looks good. | 0:17:09 | 0:17:11 | |
-I began by attending shows -and buying catalogues. | 0:17:12 | 0:17:17 | |
-If anything caught my eye, -I'd mark the number. | 0:17:17 | 0:17:21 | |
-I didn't look at its breeding. | 0:17:21 | 0:17:23 | |
-At the end of the week, after -attending three or four shows... | 0:17:23 | 0:17:28 | |
-..I'd review my notes, -check up on unfamiliar bloodlines... | 0:17:28 | 0:17:34 | |
-..and stick with them. | 0:17:34 | 0:17:36 | |
-I like a cob that moves well, -and which also has solid substance. | 0:17:37 | 0:17:41 | |
-That foal shows character... | 0:17:42 | 0:17:44 | |
-..and I like the way -it moves its front legs... | 0:17:44 | 0:17:47 | |
-..and the way it carries its head. | 0:17:47 | 0:17:50 | |
-It comes naturally to cobs. | 0:17:50 | 0:17:52 | |
-Cobs with a bold, -self-confident nature... | 0:17:52 | 0:17:57 | |
-..makes showing a lot easier. | 0:17:57 | 0:18:00 | |
-In my opinion, it's an integral part -of a cob's character. | 0:18:00 | 0:18:04 | |
-This mare is called Candy. | 0:18:17 | 0:18:19 | |
-She's a warmblood, bred for jumping. | 0:18:19 | 0:18:22 | |
-Her mother competed -at the 2000 Olympic Games. | 0:18:23 | 0:18:28 | |
-The foal looks grand. | 0:18:28 | 0:18:30 | |
-The foal looks grand. - -Yes, he is. | 0:18:30 | 0:18:31 | |
-We like this foal. | 0:18:32 | 0:18:33 | |
-There's something about him. | 0:18:35 | 0:18:37 | |
-He thinks a lot of himself, -as you can see. | 0:18:37 | 0:18:40 | |
-He thinks he's quite a lad. | 0:18:40 | 0:18:42 | |
-We breed pure show jumpers... | 0:18:42 | 0:18:45 | |
-..and we're also trying to combine -show jumping and cob qualities. | 0:18:45 | 0:18:50 | |
-We're aiming -at three different markets... | 0:18:51 | 0:18:54 | |
-..cobs, part-breds, -and show jumpers. | 0:18:54 | 0:18:57 | |
-Breeding in all three areas -has led to successes. | 0:18:57 | 0:19:01 | |
-The home is filled -with trophies and rosettes... | 0:19:01 | 0:19:05 | |
-..from major UK shows. | 0:19:05 | 0:19:06 | |
-This is Bryncadno Heledd. | 0:19:09 | 0:19:11 | |
-She won the Welsh cob -youngstock championship... | 0:19:11 | 0:19:16 | |
-..at the Royal Welsh Show -back in 2012... | 0:19:16 | 0:19:20 | |
-..when she was -a three-year-old filly. | 0:19:20 | 0:19:23 | |
-It was an excellent year for her. | 0:19:23 | 0:19:26 | |
-She won the supreme championship -at the Lampeter Stallion Show... | 0:19:26 | 0:19:30 | |
-..and also at the Derby Festival... | 0:19:31 | 0:19:33 | |
-..and she qualified -for the Horse of the Year Show. | 0:19:33 | 0:19:37 | |
-We think the world of this mare. | 0:19:37 | 0:19:38 | |
-We think the world of this mare. - -What else do you have? | 0:19:38 | 0:19:40 | |
-There are a few more horses we've -brought in, such as the stallion. | 0:19:40 | 0:19:45 | |
-That sounds good. | 0:19:45 | 0:19:47 | |
-Here he is - the stallion, -Haighmoor Orient Express. | 0:19:51 | 0:19:55 | |
-He won the Section D Best Stallion, -Colt or Gelding award... | 0:19:55 | 0:20:00 | |
-..at the 2015 Royal Welsh Show. | 0:20:00 | 0:20:02 | |
-As Dorian would say - -he's a good mover... | 0:20:02 | 0:20:05 | |
-..and he thinks he's quite a lad. | 0:20:06 | 0:20:08 | |
-Another win for Dorian Lloyd. | 0:20:13 | 0:20:15 | |
-What a day! | 0:20:16 | 0:20:17 | |
-It comes as no surprise. | 0:20:18 | 0:20:19 | |
-That's the direction he's taken. | 0:20:19 | 0:20:22 | |
-We're looking at -the best Section D male... | 0:20:22 | 0:20:27 | |
-..Welsh cobs. | 0:20:28 | 0:20:29 | |
-What's the name of his sire? | 0:20:30 | 0:20:32 | |
-Railway - Derwen Railway Express -was his sire. | 0:20:33 | 0:20:37 | |
-He must be among the last -of his offspring. | 0:20:37 | 0:20:40 | |
-He's the last one, -the last stallion by Railway. | 0:20:40 | 0:20:44 | |
-His head shows a lot of character -and he has such large, soft eyes. | 0:20:44 | 0:20:49 | |
-He has kind eyes. | 0:20:49 | 0:20:51 | |
-His eyes are very eye-catching, -if you see what I mean. | 0:20:51 | 0:20:55 | |
-He has very nice hindquarters too. | 0:20:56 | 0:20:58 | |
-He has very nice hindquarters too. - -He has a backside like a bus! | 0:20:58 | 0:21:00 | |
-He's much better than a bus! | 0:21:01 | 0:21:04 | |
-He's an extremely nice horse. | 0:21:05 | 0:21:08 | |
-I like him. | 0:21:08 | 0:21:09 | |
-He's the stallion we use at home. | 0:21:10 | 0:21:12 | |
-He produces stock -of equally fine quality. | 0:21:13 | 0:21:17 | |
-And he comes from old bloodlines... | 0:21:17 | 0:21:20 | |
-..that have been tried and tested -over many generations. | 0:21:20 | 0:21:24 | |
-That's one reason why I bought him - -to acquire those bloodlines. | 0:21:24 | 0:21:29 | |
-He's in the stables at the moment, -with mares and fillies nearby. | 0:21:29 | 0:21:34 | |
-He's very good with his mares. | 0:21:34 | 0:21:36 | |
-It's the best of both worlds - we -can use him and we can show him. | 0:21:36 | 0:21:41 | |
-We're very lucky. | 0:21:41 | 0:21:42 | |
-Dorian Lloyd's two worlds -have brought him numerous awards. | 0:21:42 | 0:21:47 | |
-In 2011, he was awarded a major -honour at the Royal Welsh Show... | 0:21:47 | 0:21:52 | |
-..the Dr Emrys Evans Award... | 0:21:52 | 0:21:54 | |
-..for his skills as a farrier. | 0:21:54 | 0:21:56 | |
-I regard every nail, -every horseshoe... | 0:21:56 | 0:22:00 | |
-..each piece of work I do, -as having my name on it. | 0:22:01 | 0:22:04 | |
-Each time I shoe a horse, -I do it to the best of my ability... | 0:22:04 | 0:22:09 | |
-..and I hope other people -can appreciate that. | 0:22:09 | 0:22:12 | |
-I have a competitive nature. | 0:22:14 | 0:22:16 | |
-I don't like doing anything -half-heartedly. | 0:22:16 | 0:22:20 | |
-When I do something, I do it -to the best of my ability. | 0:22:20 | 0:22:25 | |
-This comes out in my character, -at times, and it's no bad thing. | 0:22:25 | 0:22:29 | |
-What you get from something -depends on how much you put into it. | 0:22:30 | 0:22:34 | |
-A man who stands still -won't go anywhere. | 0:22:34 | 0:22:37 | |
-What a wonderful sight! | 0:22:38 | 0:22:40 | |
-And who'd have thought - -barely two months later... | 0:22:40 | 0:22:44 | |
-..Dorian, his stallion, -Haighmoor Orient Express... | 0:22:44 | 0:22:49 | |
-..and his mare, -Perthog Gwenan Mai... | 0:22:49 | 0:22:52 | |
-..would appear before cheering -crowds at Wales's premier show... | 0:22:53 | 0:22:57 | |
-..and the Montgomeryshire farrier -would be king of the show ring! | 0:22:57 | 0:23:02 | |
-This is Perthog Gwenan Mai. | 0:23:02 | 0:23:05 | |
-Dorian Lloyd is a farrier. | 0:23:05 | 0:23:07 | |
-Perthog Gwenan Mai is awarded -the George Prince of Wales Cup... | 0:23:09 | 0:23:14 | |
