Well done to the Bay Boys! A very successful day at the office.

Like someone else said you are an inspiration to those of us with baby TBs. I don't think mine is ROR eligible (in training, never raced) but I hope I can transform her into a dressage diva.

Love the kittens too. :)

Username makes me chuckle every time I see it!!

Yes, quite, and tomorrow at my actual office my colleagues will be impressed that I actually won enough money to cover the entire day for a change (very non horsey!!).

Oh bum, probably not, but she's a cutie (and loading well now!) :)

They are very cute, Dad horrified to learn that they will be living indoors until much bigger and all jabs done!!

The rosettes are lovely, very posh! Thank you!

Poncing *is* worth it sometimes ;) We're prodding and poking them into do a higher class/PYO, which is something ROR are voting for themselves, so it'll be interesting to see what's on offer next year!

Prize money that is more than double figures and your not 3* or GP level???? :eek: :eek:
Are you sure they didn't just miss out a decimal point? :p ;)

Congratulations both of you! Sounds like a very good night out and like both CS & Fig are in fine form!
NH with Fig and his feed if he is still not eating try not offering him any for a few days and then reintroduce it. Or reintroduce bits at a time.

Thanks FF - having said that Fig has eaten all of yesterdays dinner, all of his trug (third feed of conditioning mash and alfa oil) and eaten all of his brekkie bar 2 handfuls. So fingers crossed it was just the grass! Unlike CS, he's not a pig who will just eat and eat and eat (CS is the unfussiest horse when it comes to eating) when he's not hungry he just stands. Which is baaad! Want shiny round pony!

Wow, well done both, talk about RoR world domination!! Big pats to the ponies - perhaps you should teach one of them to jump and have a crack at the Barbury 2* RoR Champs next year if winning the dressage ones is getting a bit boring ;)

will have to be Fig TD.....trying to jump star is like trying to navigate an eel round a crazy golf course, talk about reluctant and wriggly lol!

Thanks TD - would hypothetically have to be Fig!! Planning on taking him to Aylesford for a gander at the XC and SJ over winter..... :shakesinshinyboots:

Amazing! huge congratulations to you both
Seriously tempted to let my farrier race my chap now if it means he'd be eligible for ROR with that sort of prize money :p
Also loving the sparkle girl range - hope you got the name copyrighted then another decent cheque would be heading your way ;-)

Haha!!! I wouldn't get too excited, it just about covers 3 months of hard feed :eek:

Oh yeah, of course!
