Hi all, i love talking about my horses, and i am sure you do to;) so show me your horses and tell me about them and what you do with them.
I have to tb mares, tinkerbel is a 10 yr old tb, she is taking a break from racing, i have been doing some showjumping and cross country with her, and she is taking to it very well, i rode her to my house on sun, apart from a couple of hairy moments i made it to mine and back in one piece:)
My other mare, lily is a 4 yr old, who i am trying to back, she is very sweet but a bit nervy, i can tell she'll be a fun ride ;)
Hers tinkerbel

Your turn :)
 
I have a fjord horse, stable name Jos. He is 18, and I have had him a year. We do all sorts - showing, hacking, TREC, fun rides, a little dressage, and some jumping. He is a genuine allrounder.

This is us on Sunday at a show.
 
this is Nancy.....she is my happy hacker, and is helping me get my confidence back after a long break from riding due to two slipped discs. She is a gentle giant, at 16.2 and is built like a tank, but she is 100% bombproof, walks past anything.....and loves carrots and apples. Like a jumbo jet she needs alot of ground to get to canter....but walk is both of our favourites!

and this is our new edition Izzy, 3YO 15hh TBX mare for my neice who is just wonderful and we plan many hacks together once she is broken, she isbeing broken at home but by a professional who does racehorses, and has started lunging and wearing her bridle etc....

testing - may have done this wrong! In theory bottom one is of my little colt i just sold, rescued from reading sales in may and just gone to a lovely home. Top 2 are of my 19 year old connemara x gelding who I have had for 9 years . Done lots of eventing and sj, affiliated and unaffilated. He recently went on loan locally to a 13 yr old girl to do PC with as I need to save my money!!!
:)
 
This is Wexford, my 5 year old 16hh Irish Draught Sports Horse. He's such a laid back boy but has a tendancy to be stubborn and cheeky! He's lovely to ride, you just have to work to get him going - plus he loves jumping! :)

I've got loads more but not on this laptop, which is lucky for you guys hehe! :D Cannot wait til I can join in with the riding threads and getting on his back for the first time and starting our ridden adventures. Hopefully not too long now, long reined him for the first last night and he was brilliant, so fingers crossed that come spring, I've lost some weight and we can get going WOOP WOOP :D
