Silver Aura
         
 

This gracious chesnut mare, a former British National Champion Brood Mare, was bred by Mrs Iona Bowring who kindly gave her to me. Sadly, at the age of 27, Aura finally passed away but her many offspring will bring joy to her owners in the future.

Aura's coat retained the metallic sheen of her sire, the multi-champion American Ben Rabba who decended from early imported Crabbet lines. Aura was from the revered Silver Fire line through her dam, Silver Sheen and grand-dam Silver Grey. Between them, these two Crabbet mares dominated the AHS Show, sharing the Female and Reserve Female Championships for a number of years.

Aura nicked particularly with our English stallion Silvern Sceptre producing show winners in Silver Aria, Bright Sceptre and others.

Silver Aura was 78.86% Crabbet
