Petrushka is a 2005 chestnut mare by the dressage stallion Pascal. She was bred by Ted Green, chairman of the British Hanoverian Horse Society, and is out of state premium Ramires mare Rhaja
In 2010, Petrushka was presented to the British Hanoverian Horse Society for her performance test. She gained a very good score in both the ridden and loose jumping sections, revealing her excellent scope over fences. Not only did Petrushka successful pass her performance test, she also gained an Elite award in the four to five year old showing class.
Petrushka’s first foal was a petite chestnut filly by Woodlander Wavavoom. Ella very narrowly missed an elite premium at the BEF Futuruty and went on to have a successful BD career before coming back to Briarwood Stud.
In 2014 Petrushka went on broodmare loan, and she produced three beautiful foals for her lovely guardian Emily.

We welcomed Petrushka back into the Briarwood herd at the end of 2017 and were delighted to welcome a black colt by Rotspon in June 2018.
Petushka produced a chestnut colt by Woodlander Wavavoom in May 2020, and we were so delighted with him that we repeated the cross for a 2021 foal. Briarwood Wild at Heart was born in May 2021 and we were immediately smitten with this sassy filly!
Trush had a very much earned year off in 2022, while her daughter Ella (Briarwood Wild Beauty) became a mother for the first time.
In 2023 we welcomed Petrushka's third colt for Briarwood Stud, Linus, by Lestingdale.
