Its been a long time since I did a report on any of my gang and as I took my 3yr old to a show on the weekend thought I would do a little update. Background is that I bred him myself out of my dressage mare, hes by Johnson (Jazz x Flemmingh) and is currently standing at 16'1.
Went and did an inhand Youngstock class on Sunday and he was perfectly behaved although we got ready a bit too early so he was slightly off the boil by the time of the class. He got pulled in 2nd out of about 20 to start with and then dropped to 4th after his individual show as he got hold of his lead chain in his mouth and wouldn't let go and then wouldnt trot properly - little devil I was still thrilled with 4th, hes not a show horse, he lives out 365 days a year and dosent get fed anything over the summer (just grass). Ive also been backing him over the summer and he will hack around the gallops on his own and will ride out in company around our lanes. Hes got one more show on Sunday and then hes on ''holiday'' until March time next year when he will be re-broken ready to start his dressage career.
Here is is at 3 months old:
And these are from Sunday:
My mare had another foal on 4th May this year aswell, she is called Paris (Parisienne Valentina) and is by Vince (Gribaldi x Hofnar) who belongs to SAMGirl on here. A couple of pics of the lovely lady herself:
1 week old:
4 Months old with mum:
You can see how big she is in this one, mare is 16'1 (they will be weaned early due to the size of Paris)
And finally my gorgeous Blossom who has bred me two amazing foals. She will be coming back into work at weaning and I will hopefully find a lovely sharer for her or a loan home - someone who wants to do some dressage and hacking
Sorry for the pic overload, hope you all like
