Great granny travels thousands of miles to find the True Appaloosa

Watch this preview of a fascinating documentary about a 71-year-old woman, who sets off on an extraordinary journey to find the True Appaloosa.

Passionate horse woman

Scott Engstrom is a passionate horse woman and life-long breeder of Appaloosas. She always believed they originated in Asia, not Europe as reported in history books. One night while watching TV, she saw what looked like a spotted horse in Kyrgyzstan.

Scott got in touch with show’s producer Connor Woodman and convinced him to take her to Kyrgyzstan in Central Asia, to find that very horse.

Lost valley

When they arrive in Kyrgyzstan they discover indigenous horses have been virtually wiped out, so their only option is to go in search of a lost valley, considered inaccessible. Until now.

Will they ever find the true source of the Appaloosa?

True Appaloosa comes to Sky 253 and H&C Play on Sunday 15 January at 9pm.
