Good Luck!
We go to Pinto World but Pinto Congress does not have enough pleasure type classes for us to justify driving 24 hours!

Let us know how it goes!!

I wish!

My trainer is going. His wife is showing and he is taking the 3 yr old I worked all summer just to ride. 3 yr old is almost ready he says, his walk and jog are there and the lope is getting locked in, it's about 90% ready. I can't wait to see him in the show ring - he's going to be fantastic! If he was showing I'd probably find a way to drive out and watch - I love that little horse that much.

agh still awake. I seem to have the show jitters and it stinks becuse we are hoping to be on the rode by 5. Mavi is all cleaned up and banded and tucked away in his stall. Not to happy with me because he did not want a bath, he said it was too cold. duh.gif

Hoping he decides to behave himself and he at least places in a class.

I should be able to get pics up when I get home and I am probably going to get a pro pic done as well.

Thanks guys

Woot! Mavi placed 3rd in the Weanling class. He was such a good boy. The two horses that beat him are really nice. I am so proud of my boy. My camera wouldn't take pics right but I got two. I will be back in a few with them.

My camera took everything really dark, sorry.



Yes I know my hat was crooked lol he had just knocked it to the side being a butt



I also took a pro pic and I will get it up when I have a link. It is awsome.


I can't wait till this spring, I have a half sibling to this colt coming and it is out of a even better mare than my colts dam.

Thank you guys,

MMN

Congratulations!


My trainer's wife placed 5th in the Am Jr - English Showmanship, 6th in Am Bareback Equitation, 3rd in Am Jr English Equitation, 4th in their trail, and i don't remember in bareback horsemanship. So excited for them!

Pinto seems to have more fun classes (Like bareback) than AQHA. Maybe that's the kind I'll get next. I can atleast pick up Pinto points at my local show association.

Congrats on doing so well! Bet you were super excited.

Can't wait to see the pro picture.

Here are some shots of him in the class. I will get the posed one in the mail in a few weeks. I think I may order these too.

Very nice looking boy.

And I'm unfamiliar with showing babies in Halter - but why do you run the chain through their mouth?

QH thank you, I think hes a nice looking boy but I may be a bit biased.

I can't say why others show in a chain but if you look at the pro pic site i think only one person in the class did not have a lip chain on their horse. It is commonly saw in the colt classes as stallions are almost always shown in a lip chain. I only use it at shows but man he does set his feet square quick buy just having it on and me saying "set". I don't hardly ever see them used on filly's though.

I think it is kind of a fad right now in the halter horse industry and sadly to win you have to follow those fads. I don't like to do it but if it makes him more competitive I will as long as it is not harmful to him.

I never yank or pull on the chain and try to keep it as loose as possible. He is fine with it he drops his head for me to put it in and does not protest it. If I used it as some people you see in the ring he would hate me. I have seen people apply so much pressure that the horse reared up and flipped over. Sad in my opinion. If he didn't tolerate it I wouldn't use it.
