The newest arrival... This is Bountyquest aka tyson (think we'll be changing that to bounty tho) who arrived in sunny Kildare at 7amthis morning after a long journey the whole way from Dubai :) Its going to be a day of firsts! This his first time ever being in a field (and im sure he'll get a taste of rain before the day is out :rolleyes:) with little sport horse mare Stella who is protecting him like hes her foal haha Didn't realise quite how small he was going to be.. considering Stella (on the left) is only 15.1 at a push! Very excited to meet this wee man! Won't be down to see him til the Thursday as I only fly home on Wednesday night!! I've a feeling this lad is going to give the r2r horses a run for there money! :D

Kildare grass, urgh no, worse again, send him here straight away ;)

Clare grass definitely does make them grow... not neccessarily vertically, but I guarantee he will change shape on it!

And I've heard the same thing too re importance (or non-importance) of size, but only ever from blokes :D
