This is Tommy. He's nearly 3 now (3 in June) and a bwb by Groomsbridge May out of a Fleetwater Opposition mare. We bought him at 6 months with the intention of eventing him one day. We have decided to leave him another year before working him as he is still physically very immature. This pic was taken on the first of January so apologies for the yak like winter coat!!

Absolutely lovely. Look at that hindquarter and as you say still loads of growing to do. He is going to be seriously stunning under saddle :) My sort of horse :cool:
 
He's very nice. It's great you've had him since 6 months old as he will have been nicely handled by yourselves and ready to go on when he's 4 and over. How big is he now?

(He reminds me slightly of my mare at the same age who is shire x TB. She made 17hh and filled out in general all round by age 5).

Best of luck with everything he does.
 
Thanks guys! Glad people agree, was worried I was just biased! He's about 15.1 (maybe 15.2) at the wither just now and maybe an inch more on the bum. However he's still got gappy knees so I think he'll make 16.2 easily. He's very slightly toe in at the front but straight

He's got stripey feet which make it a bit of an optical illusion!
