Thought I'd better introduce the offending monster! This is Gabi, 16hh 13 yr old oldenburg mare. Sorry about that goony looking person ruining the shots

Hope the photos work!

[Pedantic]

Lovely face and kind eyes

, you look really happy

What a gorgeous face! You look very tall!!!! top of my head is level with my guys withers!! - until he grows at scary things that is! You look very happy - and what a neat trick - mud disguising colour Ned!!

I love her speckled face, different and very pretty

 

[hollykb]

Thanks guys

Yes she is very pretty, a real monkey though! These were taken a while ago, she has a bit more meat on now, though still needs some muscle. Would be easier to achieve if she wasn't such a monster to ride!

She is gorgeous....I'm loving the spotty look - hides the mud so much better.....

and love the ears

OMG!

I looked at her for sale!!

From Plum Pudding!?! Near the coast

She was lovely! I very very nearly bought her.

Infact I still have her advert photos on my laptop lol.

I always remember trying her because the guy that had her was a SJer I think (?) and would always ride in a light seat, and when I asked her to canter and she found me SITTING in the saddle she was very much suprised haha

 

[hollykb]

Yeh that's right! From Plum Pudding in Kent! Wow what a weird coincidence! How come you didn't buy her in the end? Yeh he rode her really nicely, I had a go and felt like a right idiot, she wouldn't even canter for me initially! Tried her a second time and went much better, obviously as I bought her! Was last april I got her. She was going really well, is only a pain now as she was out of work for few months due to nutty gelding with a major separation issue!

 

[ForeverBroke_]

Woops! Didn't see your reply haha, have been a stalker and PM'd you

 

[golddustsara]

Aw she is lovely! You are just down the road from me

 

[ForeverBroke_]

Wuh oh, thats two stalkers for you

 

[golddustsara]

LOL! Don't worry I'm in Bishops Waltham not on your doorstep or anything haha.

Ooo that is pretty close! I know that area as I used to work at Marwell. Wondered if there was anyone local on here. Question arisen from Darcys pm, don't suppose you ride any unaffiliated dressage? Do you know anywhere near us that do walk/trot tests?
