Not entirely sure but could have been High Offley Stud in Staffordshire and seem to remember a foal of hers entered in the DBS Stars of Tomorrow NH Show at Bangor in July 2013.

The TBA has recently published a guide to its updated Elite National Hunt Mares Incentive Scheme, which is generously supported by the Levy Board and is aimed at encouraging British jumps breeders to patronise the increasingly appealing ranks of domestic stallions. Free and subsidised nominations are offered by way of incentive and for those who consider such a ‘bribe’ to be a poor alternative to using the supposedly better stallions on offer across the Irish Sea, think again. The list contained in the booklet highlights the fact that there’s currently a decent choice of young and established jumps sires in this country, including such unheralded names as Pasternak and Great Palm, who have provided the winners of the last two runnings of the Paddy Power Gold Cup at Cheltenham.
On the list of many eligible mares currently resident in Britain, and among those whose owner has already made use of the scheme, is the Welsh National winner L’Aventure. Her first foal, a solid daughter of Kayf Tara, is being retained by owner/breeder Christopher Harriman and if she’s anywhere near as tough as her mother, who won nine and was placed in 19 of her 58 starts, she’ll give all fans of jump racing plenty to cheer about.

I was happy to be bribed last year (except for it not working!) but the stallions on offer for me aren't floating my boat at all.
