Your horse is a sweetie - he has his ears so forward all the way round the show jumping course. He has a fantastic ping, makes the jumps look easy. :)

Well done!

Thanks miskettie :) he always has his ears forward - sometimes, they are so forward the tips touch :p This is usually followed by him going :eek: then :cool: :p
 
Here is a pic from the lovely Caro, who has given me permission to post :)

Please excuse the shexy silver roundhead look going on, my silk fell off at no.4 :o And I think I was saying "good boy" at this point over the jump :o
The white skinny you see in the background was what we jumped in at an angle, and then we were meant to jump the trak on the angle but decided not to and jump it straight :)
 
That's a good day for you and Billy BravePants, I thought the showjumping looked fab. I'm liking the supersize Billy, however I think there's still a long way to go before he's properly filled out, but then my tape measure might need recalibrating. ;)

Thanks Baydale :) It felt good! :)
There is definately a way to go before he fills out - maybe by the time he is 8? :p
 
Awww only just caught up with you - well done Billy on getting the first one under his belt :) Can't watch the vids on my iPad but he looks really pingy AND tidy in the still. I love that you've adopted my DEEs, and sounds like a very solid first try. He is after all, still a real baby - he's only 5 isn't he? And big as well...

PMSL at the foalie, they always make fools of us - I'm betting Kerilli's Katy will manage to do the same to her :D

He is only 5 :) I think your DEEs are perfect!
That will be our last event for a while, Billy has earned a few weeks holidays now (after dressage on saturday :p) although he has had since saturday off and he is already standing at the gate waiting to be ridden!
He is definately earning the name of Billy Bravepants :)

Anyone taking bets on when Kerilli's katy will foal? :p Probably in the middle of the day when she is fast asleep :p
