"The Boys"

Guten Tag meine neue Freundinnen!

It's great to see you here!!! Look forward to meeting/catching up with you all.

Well, seeing as you've all put up gorgeous photos of your horses I thought I better do the same... I can't resist an opportunity to show them off, I'm so proud of them!

Bobby, the midget bay has been with me since I was 11, he hadn't even passed his 3rd birthday when we bought him. He's now at medium/advanced and when he's at his best, can hold his own at Clarendon against the big boys and girls. He's training FEI and will passage until the cows come home! Not bad for a 14.3hh Polish Arabian (I'm not sure if he likes Germans). He loves playing tip and soccer and is obsessed with witches hats, rakes, Omo bottles that are tied to the fence, attention from anyone and everyone and of course food in all forms (he even ate my ham sandwich... Silly horse).

The black warmblood is my rising four year old gelding by Rotspon (And I'm not sure if he likes the Polish!). Would you believe his pet name is Robbie? Trust me, his real name is Rob Roy! He was bred by Andrea Beatty (who owns PSI De Caprio and Donner Carina). His dam (APH Feuerfest) carries the famous Trakehner 'F line'. His grandsire is APH Heidelberg who has strong Trakehner lines through Anduc and Marduc. He's been broken in for seven months and was entered to compete at Clarendon. Unfortunately because it was washed out and postponed, I'll miss his first show! He's going quite well and he's an absolute joy to ride, his canter feels like hes flying!

Bis Später! (I get a dispensation from school as I'm in year 11 studying German Continuers for

the HSC next year).
