Daniel Grinnall Daniel Grinnall, the latest addition to the partnership, was born in June 2005, sadly too late to ever meet his Grandfather, Mick, but nevertheless, a beneficiary of all that he began. Daniel enjoys the shows and farm sales above all else and in his first year of showing sheep has already scooped several prizes including first at Monmouth Show and third at Tenbury. On his pony Gleiniant Spindrift, he was second in a strong open class at Rock show at the tender age of just 3 years old. Daniel is at Abberley Hall School. Click to visit Abberley Hall School
