Well Done!!!

I want that horse! He looks super tacked up.


Good for you guys; these STBs are such great horses. My gal I got last year and started u/s is packing a family around for the summer, even the four year old can ride her.

He looks great under saddle, almost would make me consider another stb myself after looking at your pics

He looks like he's already put on some weight - looks great under western tack!!

really nice MSA.. you must be really happy to have him, he's wonderful looking.. and just taking everything as it comes.. what a good boy..

WOOOHOOO...Good for you and Cam....He is such a pretty boy and looks very happy with the what his next chapter in life is

that boy is gonna be a 3 day eventer, and a western cow pony........he just seems to want to please..........good for you ......he looks terrific........well done for your daughter.........she is doing a great job with his training there........she sure can run!!!!! :cowboyhound.gi

thanks everyone. we are so very pleased with him taking everything in so easily....certainly there is always room for a bad day...LOL:)

He is an absolute perfect replacement mount for myself.....But not sure when I will ride him....

My daughter is starting him and then her friend is leasing him for the summer at our place and my son wants to ride him and 3 of my students so not sure when I will get to ride him but I am happy to see him being worked so easily....

LB you know where to go if you want one. None of mine though but we can find some started horses ,...and great prospects

That was quick indeed. Has he had any issues with the kicking like he did in harness? He looks happier going under saddle, that's for sure.

I better get my butt in gear and start riding George. Just waiting for the backhoe guy to come and start my round pen. He got rained out last week

Azure he never offered once to kick out....Never...ONly time was when he was playing out in the pasture nad that I would not say is a kick out....

He is adorable and is going to attend his first clinic on site here JUly 11th.

He is a natural.
I emailed rachael a link to see pics online last week and have not heard from her SO if you see her drool over the pics to her and tell her to go look.Our posts are all in today for the round pen....Just need to board and peat moss the footing and by the week-end we are ready to go...WOHOO

That's good. He must have been bothered by the cart and driver behind him. Smart horse, got himself out of a life of racing

He is stunning!!!

He looks fantastic :)

Here is one picture of CAM under English attire.
He was not a happy camper under English attire. ONly being his 3rd ride was not his best day. Has lots of time to adapt...

that is one good looking horse....good job

thanks rude.
Poor boy needed a reall good soothing bath yesterday - the dog flies are really bad and being that he is a light colour they dont leave him alone...

After supper we went to fetch him and he looked like something out of a war movie covered in blood from head/nexk/shoulders/girth and sheath.....

He now has a facial to mid back sleezy on and is doing much better. He certainly loved the bath........I would have got pics but he went to roll and it was getting late....

Will try to get pics this week-end
