Well, if I can ever get ahold of this conditioning(and getting his neck sweated down some) thing for "Elvis"-Laurel Acres Double Vision, showing in 2yr old Under Stallion Halter, then in AMHA will be in the 29" and Under 2yr old Stallions, with some color classes, and ammy classes thrown into the mix-

(Picture posted from the Winter Classic Sale Pictures,so don't have one as he is right now)

Then I will be showing FRH Fancy Cochise in some Ammy Hunter/Jumper Classes Over, and maybe a Gelding Over Class in Halter. (Don't have a good picture of him yet)AMHR shows only.

I also have(depending on the $$$$ lol): High Cottons Legendary Sarah, that I want to show in an A show for 2yr old mares 29-31" Halter-Not a picture, she may just show later in the year at a local A show, who really knows for now?

Winterhawks Mahogany Bey-2yr old Over Gelding-Halter-Not pictured.

Then I plan to have Skips Dip N Dot, out late in the year as a yearling under mare/ 28" and under(A)halter, as well as a possible halter/color baby at local shows later in the year...

Yeah I know I know, I need to make up my mind, but basically I am doing this as I go along

Hope to have pictures later in the Spring.

Can't wait to start-Sarah

P.S. This will be my first year going to Nationals(if all goes as planned) and possibly AMHA Worlds!

 

[TripleDstables]

I don't really have a show string, and I may not go to more than one or two open mini shows... but when I go, I'll be bringing my filly DB Cause For Komotion that will be two in April. I don't have any good current photos of her, but I do have weanling and yearling photos of her. (quite out of shape I might add!) OH!

The last photo is her at her first show (and my first show!) with my Stud Muffin too. (he only had about a month of conditioning prior to this show!

And I may show Angel at some local events... She is turning 3 this year, and it's always fun to get the minis out and about. (We only have big horse shows around here, the closest mini show is 4 hours away.) The first photo was only taken about a week ago, but the others are all yearling photos. I need to clip everyone up nice and get good photos this spring/summer!

Both mares are AMHA registered, and won't mature over 31" They are paternal half sisters!

Thanks for letting me share!

and I have two more of mine, I'm putting up to show as well, who are really neat

Yes I'm

and I'll remind myself of that when it comes time to clip them; I literally don't mind them draining me as far as the conditioning and stall cleaning and training and working full time, but I'm not a huge fan of clipping come July and August when it's 100+ down here.

Great thread Devon, I really enjoyed reading about everyones horses!!

Here's "the plan" as it stands right now!

Halter, obstacle, hunter, country pleasure, team, showmanship.

Circle J Finnegan, senior gelding

Halter, obstacle, hunter, showmanship, single pleasure, roadster.

Circle J King George, senior gelding

Halter, obstacle, hunter, showmanship, liberty and actually, we hope, maybe, single pleasure!

And new additions ....

Circle J Just A Memory, senior mare

Also, I plan to bring FWF Donner to our club show this summer, they have a geriatric class, we went 2 years ago last time it was offered when he was 28 and he had a great time! Also won a driving class! And was second in open halter! I promised him he could go again this year, now that he's 30!!

 

[MyLilShowGirl]

What a relaxing post.... by the speed of that snow coming down right now, I am not sure I can see show season coming through it anytime soon!!

Everyones horses are gorgeous and good luck this year!! Can't wait to see pictures and results from the 08 season...

Here's my show string..

I can't wait for show season! I am actually going to have more then one to show!

First is T's Dressed to a Tee, 3 year old stallion, AMHR B and PtHA in Model Stallions, Open Halter, Ammy Halter, Color, and hopefully Jumping and Trail-In-Hand.

Next is Flaby's Society Belle, will possibly be showing in AMHR Mare and Foal with me, and then with my 13 year old niece in Youth Sr. Mares Halter and Color.

Then of course I am hoping her foal that will be born this month can do some mare and foal and/or weanling halter classes.

 

[MBhorses]

Here is our silver dapple, we just recently sold.It was a very hard decision to let her go, but we had some unexpected bills come up. We know she should be a winner.We were not going to be able to show her this year and she needs to be shown.Good luck Sue.Our dream is to see her at WORLDS.She will be show and trained by Bethany in TX.We would like to thank her new owners SJ Miniatures.
