As posted last night, Sasha arrived here yesterday.
I bought her, unseen (again, must need my head looking at!) from an ad on Horsequest just so I could use my free return to Aimbrey Chester which has already cost me far more than the stud fee is worth but it has become a matter of principle that I used it! She has already been graded with Sports Pony SS and would have had far higher marks if her actual breeding was known; she's also already had two by Chester, one, Miss Moneypenny is on Chester's Progeny page and has also been passed by SPSS; the other, a colt was sold before weaning so it's not as if she is unproven in any way. I have to admit, she was bargain basement and for an extra £25, the lovely owners not only took her to End House for me, they also threw in a headcollar and a Weatherbeeta LW so I don't think I can say I was hard done by!:g: They want to keep in touch too which is nice.
Anyway, by daylight I keep having to pinch myself! Reminds me a bit of a mini Bea, I'd love to know her breeding though; does anyone know if there is a way/database that can check DNA with any breed that is assessable to Joe Public and not just societies?

Sorry, there are a few and she's settled quite well with the boys, thank goodness; will be interesting to see if she starts reprimanding them, I hope so, they could probably need an elder horsey figure to respect!

I can not believe it!
She looks even better in daylight! What a bargain & lovely pre owner you found! How nice that they want to keep in contact!
No idea on how you find out her breeding though.

I'm sure with having had 2 foals she will shape the lads up!! Well fingers crossed she will!

Jammy blighter, aren't I?!

Still can't quite believe my luck. If I shed a couple of stone then I'd quite happily ride her too, there's a lot of substance to her, she certainly looks more mini horse than large pony I think.
What would you say her breeding was anyway? I'm leaning towards TB x Welsh or Riding Pony type, maybe with a dash of Arab somewhere but that's mainly due to her head, she has quite broad cheeks and a great eye.
 
Jammy you are!
I would end up with a 3 legged one if I tried that! (Oi don't get any ideas!)LOL

Deff mini horse with TB in there not sure on arab? Could be welsh or any of the natives for the sloping shoulder? Or small show hunter/hack type??

You could have alot of fun on her!...
 
Very nice Pat and as you say jammy too. How tall is she? I have a stunning coloured you may consider swopping for

Love the foal in the backround that looks like a camel shedding its' coat!!

The last thing Harry is, is a camel but he does have a donkey coat!

S is just under 14.2, the same height Swallow was meant to be last year but Swallow was only just 14 hands; doesn't sound much but it's a huge difference in practise. Much as I love your boy (how is he BTW?) I'll stick with my girl for now thanks!

(Shame I didn't know you were looking as I'm looking to rehome my totally wasted sportspony broodmare. Full papers, bred in the purple, dressage points, county show champion as a 3 yr old..........want another?

Do you want to get me shot?!

I'm supposed to be cutting down not increasing the herd again. I only bought Sasha because Bea was due to go back at weaning but now she's staying as mine too; if I had known that before I wouldn't have thought about buying her TBH, but I can't say I regret that at all now I've seen her.

Go on, tell me more.............................................. (PM if you like)!
