Royal Windsor update with some pics

[FMM]

Just some pics of the horses we had at Windsor on Friday (taken by Erin who is a very talented photographer!)

The Keystone Cob - 2nd in the HW Cob class

The Humdinger - 1st in the coloureds and 4th in the LW Cobs

Darcey Bustle, 1st in the LW Cobs

Saatchi
Didn't finish the class as it clashed with the cob championship

they all look so stunning. You can see the blood, sweat and tears that goes into producing them. Fab results!

 

[WoopsiiD]

[Maesfen]

Beautiful as ever, congratulations and best of luck for another successful season.

Thanks!!!

Oh - I know how lucky I am, believe me. And if I didn't own him, I would be mighty jealous of whoever did!!!!

 

[olop]

You look fabulous well done

 

[Thistle]

They look fabulous as always, although the first pic made me giggle - ever seen a pushmepullu?

I love watching cobs gallop, the earth moves!

 

[Sprout]

Wonderful results and great pics - The Humdinger is just stunning.

 

[teapot]

I love the Humdinger, one of my favourite cobs!
also nice to show cobs which aren't fat

 

[quirky]

They look superb, every credit to you

Did you breed Humdinger? Or do you have a good eye, or was it a pure fluke that he turned out as well he has?

Please don't take that question as an insult, I'm just curious as to how you came about him .

 

[Hornby]

Stunning horses (as ever ) and really great pics!

 

[seabsicuit2]

Gorgeous horses well done I think I walked past you on the coloured in the stables a couple of times!

 

[appylass]

Great pics and great results as ever I could look at The Humdinger all day long!

 

[LEC]

Glad the show is going well! They look fab.

 

[SpruceRI]

Fantastic result! They all look super as usual.

I don't know how you keep them all so clean and the white bits white! I struggle to keep a sock and a half, and a star white and the rest of the brown bits dust free!

To be fair, we have around 25 horses in for production at the moment, and a team of people looking after them - which makes it far easier to turn up to the ring with both horse and rider looking reasonably clean1

lol!! We found out about him when he was a just broken five year old, just come over from Ireland. We knew he was special, but not sure whether he would take to the job we wanted him to do. He has surpassed every expectation and is just the most lovely horse you could wish for He is one of those rare horses that is happy doing whatever you ask of him - always smiling, always looking for the next adventure!

 

[OneInAMillion]

WOW you are so so lucky to have found a horse like The Humdinger

 

[Walrus]

Crikey! Agree with the previous poster who says they've just realised who you are. The Humdinger is gorgeous - saw him in the ring at HOYS and he is just awesome. (the others aren't bad either!! )

 

[PapaFrita]

Stunning horses as usual HOW tiny to they make the riders look!!

 

[Hattikins]

Very well done to the team FMM! What a stunning bunch they all are, and Dinger is looking as smashing and handsome as ever!

 

[sydney]

Bugger me the penny has just dropped!!!
You are the Humdinger's mum???
Jealous much?? ;p

Just thinking exactly the same! Wow...

 

[Gleeful Imp]

Thanks for posting the update - was wondering how you were doing! Isn't Darcy looking gorgeous? Any more cobs in the pipeline yet to come out? I think in the interests of all of us FMM stalkers (well the horses anyway!) you should post pics of them all!!!

 

[Thistle]

I love the before and after pics you have posted in the past, lovely pics of them roughed off in the field, being hairy field ponies. Any from this winter?

We still have the chestnut Fait Accobli (the one whose dad ran in the Derby) and a lovely grey mare called Hannah Pavlova who is still a novice. She went to Windsor but I have not got any photos of her - that gives us 4 lightweight cobs and a heavy weight! Does sound a bit greedy but we love all of them

And thank you - I have agree with you about Darcy - she has really come into her own this year and looks magnificent! I think the IDs take that little bit longer to mature.
