I took my very first babies to their very first (and second) shows. I bred them myself, they are now six months old and very healthy,happy, obliging young children.
This is Presley (CherryWood Suspicious minds) He has Lucky four cinemax/Silverado/Lucky four don amigo breeding. I opted against clipping them for their first show as they were so young and I didn't want to over load them with too much.
As you can see... It really didn't bother him as he proceeded to lie down in the middle of his workout in front of the judge and have a snooze.
He was awarded second in a colour class of about five and second led mini foal.
I managed to get him from looking really rough like this to somewhat presentable with a rug and elbow grease.
Next is his sister (same sire.) Hermione aka Cherry wood Love letters. These two were born four days apart she was first. She has silverado/lucky four cinemax/ lucky four don amigo. My mares both have the same grandsire so they have similar breeding but are nothing alike really.
She was second out of eight in her colour class and first in her small horse foal class.
They behaved so well I decided to clip them and take them to another show (Sadly they were no contest against the clipped ones except in colour otherwise they would have remained un clipped.)
At her second show she was 1st in filly under two and Res.champion filly/mare in a strong class of mature mares. The judge had a hard time choosing between champion and reserve and she was just pipped for champion.
I don't have any clipped ones of Presley as we were in a rush to get them on the trailer before it rained. But he was 1st in colt two and under.
They have a few more shows to go and then Presley will be getting gelded. It wont be long and their mothers will be giving birth again! Time flies.
