Man About Town x Wesserfee
On account of Pamela Lloyd

Greenoaks Weltman (Mendy) was bred by the late Clyde Wunderwald. Clyde was a man of dressage vision and in his time imported Donna Carrera who went on to represent Australia at the World Cup Final in Holland. Clyde also imported Greenoaks Dundee who went to the Beijing Olympics in the Australian Dressage Team in 2008. Mendy is a horse of great genetics being by the young stallion Man about Town. Man about Town was again imported by Clyde but did die long before his time at the early age of 5 years. On the dam side is the great Weltmeyer and also the individual silver medallist from the Seoul Olympics Matador, ridden by Kyra Kyrkland. As a competition horse, Mendy has won and placed from the time he was 8 years of age at Prix St Georges/Inter I level. He then went on to partner Lilah Nieuwland and made his way up the grades to the new Medium Tour, which is between Prix St George and Grand Prix. This Medium Tour does introduce piaffe, passage, and one-time changes. Mendy has great rhythm in his paces, is very easy in shoulder-in and half-pass and has beautiful easy flying changes. He is currently being schooled at Ryans and with his old competition rider Heath Ryan back in the saddle, Mendy sure does come alight. Mendy is also ridden by Cathryn Herbert and Breanna Tillitzki especially when Heath is away doing clinics and he is considered a prize ride and the girls do enjoy him very much. What a great opportunity.
