For a little fun, let's see the best horse you own that has never been shown, and add why if you'd like.

Only one horse.

You must own it.

This years babies excluded.

Never in its life has it been shown,,,neither locally, registered show,,nor by someone else.

Besides being fun it will allow us to see who else is in your pasture that maybe you don't share much.

If you don't show, still would like to see your pick.

Mine would be my 2 year old gelding Sam! He is a smaller guy, wonderful color, and boy can he move!!

He just came at the wrong time, Phantom is out showing now,,so hopefully next year.

Sam is on my gelding page.

So, who has the blue ribbon in your pasture?

My next contender for show is my under 30" bay roan mare Phoebe. Her very first show is in a few weeks at the county fair. I just started showing last year with Sophie, my pinto mare so Phoebe didn't get her turn yet. I didn't want to tackle too much by trying to show two horses my first time out. This will be our only show for this year, next year I plan to get her out there more and maybe hit a " R " show with her. Who knows maybe I will take the plunge and show both of them.

I have two mares that are my best that I would say I would be very tempted to fit back up and show but for now they are both broodmares. The first mare is my appy mare Mars, she had my 08 filly that I am now showing and the colt that I will be showing next year. The second mare is Lady my granddaughter of Komokos LK Supreme and ggranddaughter of Buckeroo.

Excuse the horrible angle I was just taking the picture for my records to show how much weight she has lost (yes she lost weight and is still that chunky

I can't play - I don't own any horses that have NEVER been shown. Except our 2009 foal of course.. But wait til next year!!

Our other 7 minis (and the big horse) have all been shown somewhere by someone, and all have national points.
 
I have to do 2 I can't pick between them

Both broodmares

Yikes...my post disappeared...hopefully this isn't a repeat! I have 2 horses that I think would have shown well...both broodmares.

First is Rowbuck Bequest of Broadway. Bequest is not a "people" horse, she is very content being left alone in her pasture, she does not ask for attention, is not interested in grooming, she will, however, come up for treats! After owning her for 5 years, we can finally walk up to her in the pasture and pet her...most of the time...

Next is Fowler Boomers Exotica Lovesong, who we actually bought specifically to show. Well we had her for a little while and then sent her to the trainer (who was a whopping 15 minutes away)...and she completely stressed out...wouldn't eat...paced...was just overall NOT a happy camper. So rather than stress out at a show about HER stressing out, we decided she would become a broodmare, which she LOVES. Even sending her out for breeding to an outside stallion was an experience. She was at the breeder for around 2 months...and had just FINALLY decided it was OK to calm down and start really eating again right about the time we picked her up. She DOES NOT do well with change! LOL

I think both of these girls would have done well though...it bums me out sometimes but then they've given me some GORGEOUS foals...so I can't complain!

Here's mine, Doc would be the top of the list of "best", but he's been shown, sooo:

2008 chestnut solid colt,

LCA's More Bang For Your Buck..

Dam: Carriage Hills Copper

Sire: Little Kings Buckeroo Merlin

*HOPING* to get him out to some shows next year, wanted to this year but things just didn't work out..

Well I do not show too much and I only plan on showing **maybe** next year. Anyways probably the most stunning of all of my horses is my AMHR Black Tovero 2008 filly "Allula". She is the shyest of all of them (figures) and she doesn't like being away from her buddies

My mare Sundance LB Gaia. She is ASPC/AMHR, 35" tall. I love her, she really does need to get into the ring. She has finally matured into herself at age 4. Maybe next year. She is also a fantastic mover, really beautiful. I am definitely going to teach her to drive.

Nixons Hill Flashin a Little Beauty should do well at the few local shows we attend.

She looks better in "real" than my shoddy picture shows.

This is "La Vista Moonshadow by MG". She was last year's baby (about 7 mos. in this picture, which was taken last November). Never shown anywhere. I bought her with the idea of someday breeding her, but with the economy I worry about the fate of so many minis. Still, she's a beauty and thinner now....(of course I'm biased)

This is our girl, Lady. We bought her as a wife for BabyZee. Thought maybe if we

tried a different mare if we could get a colt rather than the fillies we've been getting.

Her facial markings are a lot like my old, black bay, Egyptian Arab that passed of old age.

She has such a loving temperament and is pretty to boot. Love her tippy little ears.

Maybe in 2010 we'll breed her.

[SIZE=12pt]Well here's my selection although there are several that come to mind.[/SIZE]

Her name is "Alamos Sirs Elegant Fawn". Even though "Fawn" hasn't ever been shown she's produced show quality foals for us.

I LOVE THIS MARE.....
