Left, Mountain Hero II as shown in the 1910 British Agricultural Encyclopaedia. The stud card gives his pedigree as: by Young Mountain Hero (Owned by J Bell of Caldbeck) by Old Mountain Hero by Rob Roy by Highland Laddie (see below) by Ling Cropper His dam was Black Bess by FitzGeorge; she was a registered Fell, and Mountain Hero 2nd was himself registered as Fell number 250 in the Polo Pony Stud Book Vol VII. It can be seen from the breeding of Mountain Hero 2nd, that he is bred from two of the best breeds of ponies that England can produce. Being bred and brought up on fell land, he cannot fail but produce a healthy stock Sir Walter Gilbey remarks that in the 1880s the Rev Lowther of Boltongate made an attempt on a modest scale to improve the ponies of the Caldbeck Fells by selecting sires and dams from among the best of them and his best sire was a 13 hands pony named Mountain Hero. It may be guessed that he, Old Mountain Hero, could have been the grand-sire of Mountain Hero II.
