Freeze mark indistinct but possibly B6WN in larger than normal lettering. Aged late 20's to early 30's. Probably New Forest. Split top lip.Earliest records are Arundel Vet Hospital 12-04-02 plus Melton Mowbray Horse Sales 6 July 2002. Mel is currently enjoying her retirement with her owner who would love to know more about her history and her exact age. Thanks in advance.

Have you contacted Farmkey to see if the freezemark is B6WN ?

Yes, but apparently it's not a Farmkey brand but ? a brand used for cattle (according to vet) thus larger lettering.

A vet is saying that the freezemark was not done by Farmkey ?
I would contact Farmkey themselves and ask them directly about it
Clipping the area might make the mark show up better, take a photo and send it to Farmkey (via email)

If you can post a photo or email me a couple to add to your advert, it might help other people recognise her
