|
| Anglesey Diamond is an Irish Draught Sport Horse bred by the Hendy Stud in Wales, UK and owned by Elwyn and Jen Lloyd. The most satisfying aspect of this athletic horse must be that not only is he home bred but is also ridden by the Lloyd`s son Tom on the International Circuit. He is going from strength to strength and a great credit to them. He has style, looks and a great temperament. |

| In 2002 he had a very successful show jumping circuit in Europe. He jumped on the National Circuits and Grand Prix competitions in Norway and Estonia. This young horse jumped at The World Cup Show in Helsinki, Finland for Great Britain in the Helsinki International Class and another Classic Class. They were in the company of many International riders such as Hugo Simon, Lesley McNaught etc. He jumped clear with only one fence down in the jump off.
