Princess just received Pinto Legion of Merit Award # 415 and a request for a photo to be placed in the national Pinto magazine. The Legion of Merit requires 650 or more Pinto points (color points do not count) with the following requirements:
- 185 or more points in halter
- 400 or more points in performance
- for minis, at least 2 ROMs (35 points each) in performance events and at least 10 points in a third event
- a Register of Excellence (175 points) in one performance event
- 10 halter points and 30 performance points in a Pinto World, Regional or Jubilee Show
Princess, aka Aloha Acres Fashion By Magic (OTM Fashion By Magic in Pinto), is sired by FWF Blue Boys Magic Man and out of Fallen Ash Farms Goodbye Girl. That makes her paternal half sister to such AMHA World Champions as Aloha Henry 143 and Aloha Acres Magic Krystal, and materal half sister to Fallen Ash Scouts Thief of Hearts. Note that she is one of only 415 pintos of ALL SIZES to have won this award over the years, and she did it at the age of 5, showing in only 4 shows a year and never leaving Connecticut. We bought her as a weanling and I did all her training myself. We plan to breed her to Max's dad in the spring!!
Now I can't decide among these photos for the magazine: the first 4 were taken at Pinto Shows by Ellen Leffingwell of Photography to Remember and the last one by my husband at an ADS event. The photo will be small and there is really no standard, as you see eveything from your standard win shots to backyard photos.
Please help me to pick by telling me which number you like best for this purpose.
#1 - Halter
#2 - Head shot
#3 - Jumping
#4 - Trail in hand (the one she got the ROE in, because she started this as a yearling)
#5 - Driving
Thanks!!!
