The Stallion .....

Sounds as if everyone had a fantastic weekend, pity I was working that weekend. Can't wait for next year when I'll be taking Don Rolieto out. He is in the process of being backed so thought it might interrupt his work so I'll wait until his :rolleyes:.
 
"Floating on air" just describes the amazing lightness and elevation that Legrande showed in his dressage on Sunday. You must have been a very, very proud mum (of both daughter and stallion! :) )

Having brewed for a couple of days on stallion choices for my TB mare, Challon Z seems to have risen to the top of the list, rather to my surprise, as he didn't start there! But the more that I saw of him, and the more that I thought about his wonderful temperament (an important one as far as she is concerned!) and his pedigree - Holstein x TB, with TB up close, (Irish Taxi) and the great Holstein lines of Caretino through Caridor Z - the clearer I became that he is probably the right stallion for her! I have to say that for total indecisives like me it was very valuable to get a second look at some of the stallions on Day Two of the SSGB.

Good choice! I know the stallion and the owner plus have a friend with a foal by him. I can't express how much I like Challon, but it isn't nearly as much as his owner adores him! Put it this way, he was the horse she rode throughout her pregnancy ....

Will look forward to seeing him :D it sounds like we might need to make it a 3 day affair in 2012 ;)
