Shamrock survived 1914 as she was measured and bought, in 1916 by Mrs Muntz and unless she was specifically sold to the army she would have survived. (No more compulsory purchases were undertaken as, ‘remounts’ from Australia and America were purchased in abundance.)

Notes:
Moon Maid II
I think it is possible this is a misprint for Moor Maid II, (in the pedigree of 3121 Shamrock in Volume 14 (1915-16) of The National Pony Stud Book (Moon Maid II, is said to appear in the Supplement for 1908).

Moor Maid II
(Moor Maid II does appear in the Supplement for 1908)
Moor Maid II was bred by A.R. Bray of Okehampton. Her sire was The Mikado, and her dam was 1656 Moor Maid.
Later she would have been owned by Lewis Voaden, of Bridestowe, Devon, as Lewis Voaden bred 3121 Shamrock.

1656 Moor Maid, brown Height 12-3
Moor Maid was purchased by A.R. Bray at a Moorland Sale.
(1656 Moor Maid was dam of Moor Maid II and grand dam of Shamrock)
