Dunmere Woodruff, by Wilby Victory out of Dunmere Dusky Heath, born 2008, 12hh. Woodruff (Kevin) was lightly shown as a youngster, and was then broken in 2015 by Wendy & Megan Hewitt. His ridden results speak for themselves, proving himself to be one of the top ridden Dartmoor stallions in the country. As well as showing, he has also competed up to elementary level in dressage, scoring 70+ %. Woodruff loved a day out with the hunt. He would often be found up front with the master - making easy work of any muddy going, hills, fences, ditches or water!
