MINSTRELS MINIATURES HORSES
21 Jun 2026
North Yorkshire County Show — 21 June 2026
Minstrels Miniature Horses continued an exceptional 2026 show season at the North Yorkshire County Show, producing a fantastic clean sweep of the UKAMHS American Miniature Horse classes before Alliance Boleros Incendio secured his place at the 2026 Horse of the Year Show.
Four Minstrels horses contested four different divisions — and all four came away with 1st place.
Four Classes – Four Winners
The day began with our homebred yearling stallion Minstrels Incendios Showman, who won the UKAMHS American Miniature Horse Yearling class.
Showman continues to develop into an exciting young horse and another excellent representative of his sire, Alliance Boleros Incendio.
Our homebred Minstrels Rebels Hells Angel followed with victory in the UKAMHS American Miniature Horse Two Year Old class, continuing her consistent run of results during the 2026 season.
In the senior mare division, SHM Westernboys Red Roses maintained her outstanding form by taking 1st place in the UKAMHS American Miniature Horse Senior Mare or Gelding class.
After her Grand Championship and Supreme successes earlier in the season, Roses once again demonstrated the quality and presence that have made her such an important member of our 2026 show team.
Alliance Boleros Incendio – HOYS 2026 Qualified
The final class brought one of the most important results of the day.
Our senior stallion Alliance Boleros Incendio won the UKAMHS American Miniature Senior Stallion class before going forward to secure the coveted Horse of the Year Show qualification.
At 14 years old, Incendio continues to demonstrate the extraordinary longevity, quality and show-ring presence that have defined his career.
Already an immensely important stallion within the Minstrels breeding programme, seeing him earn his place at HOYS 2026 made this an especially memorable result.
Incendio was handled by Tolga Falahat for his North Yorkshire victory and HOYS qualification.

Another Minstrels Horse Heading to HOYS
Incendio's qualification was particularly special as it added another Minstrels horse to the 2026 Horse of the Year Show line-up, following JSW Showkayces Peppermint Blaze, who secured our first HOYS ticket of the season at the UKAMHS Open Spring Show.
A clean sweep of all four classes contested, four individual winners and another coveted HOYS ticket made North Yorkshire County Show another exceptional day in the Minstrels 2026 season.
