Tilly :) Thank-you to everyone who answered my previous thread about buying a new horse.

You all asked for photos and after 2 months here are a few, this is Tilly, 5 year old warmblood X. Her sire is Bottecelli her grandsire Voltaire, she has done nothing so is a blank canvass (sp) so to speak. She has a few issues with napping but we seem to be getting past them (fingers X).

So lots of fun getting to know each other, and hopefully looking to do a mini hunter trial in september, wait for lots more pics :)

After the hell that happened last year (see previous posts re. Harvey), and thinking I could never face getting another horse, I am so so so so happy :)

So thanks to everyone's good wish's and here she is, my new baby

Thanks again to everyone for previous comments and those who look and respond now :)

Can't offer much, just some rose wine and prawn cocktail crisps xxxxx
 
So what is she crossed with then? I know nothing about breeding i love her head/face. I do like a nice strong, bold head on a horse. I hope you have a lot of fun with her!
 
ladyt25 her dam is an unregistered piebald cob x tb, would like to contact her breeder to see what dam has done, but keeping fingers X she follows her grandsire for jumping :)

Thanks guys for the comments, having 2 children (both boys) and Tilly being 1st mare have had I have decided whether she likes it or not she will Be girly (sp), have to say hubby hates her Raspberry Pink headcollar, like I care ;)

Thanks everyone, i think she's beautiful (but then i am biased :) )

I wasn't really looking for a horse when i saw her advert, she was fairly cheap and local, so i thought might be worth a look, and thank goodness i did, it's true what they say about what you find when your not actually looking (or something like that).

I love her to bits and cant wait to start competing, horses seem so exciting again :)
 
As another 'Tilly' owner I'll give you a few alternative names that you will no doubt be heard saying over the next few years.

Hello Tilly.......:D
 
She has a nice face and mouth and yes very nice pink headcollar! I do like her back legs and looks like a bit of spotty?

But she is very nice good luck she looks friendly type.
 
Skydancer at the moment she is 15.2, I am hoping she will grow a bit more, I usually go for minimum height of 16h but she just felt so nice when I rode her, what's a couple of inches ;) but fingers X she might have a little growth spurt.

carefreegirl, thanks for those, all i have so far is
silly tilly
tilly willy
