Hucklebey Berry--Grandson of Bask and Bay El Bey

Dianne saw Fadjur for the last time in the ring, and at the 2002 Nationals I got to witness Bob Battaglia take the last ride on this legend. An event not soon forgotten. How good was this Varian bred horse who spent most of his career with Bob Battaglia?

He is the only horse ever to win the U.S. National English Pleasure Championship three times by unanimous decision. His first championship was awarded by three judges, but his second and third were adjudicated by a five-judge panel, making his achievements even more remarkable.
