Viking was purchased from the Laidley sales. He was an aged gelding, and his history was a bit of a mystery. Once in care he was brought up to date with his vet work and put condition on. He was then discovered to have a nasal tumour but after much consideration, proceeded with treatment. He was a staff and volly favourite that enjoying a good grooming session and treat or two.
However, in September 2024 his age and arthritis were catching up with him, so the decision was made to give him his wings along with his much-loved paddock mate Hayleybird.
