Stallion approval 2010

I guess some people are curios to see photos and the results from the stallion approval which Simply Red and Camella Boy attended Thursday 25th of March, so - here they come :)
Red - who now is four years - charmed the judges with his blond, long hair and got some really good grades! He got a straight line of 8ths and the judges said he was a nice, harmonic young stallion with a pretty head, nice body, nice legs with good joints and really good movements.
You can imagine we were pleasently surprised!
He is like the ugly duckling who blossomed into a beautiful swan! :)
But unfortunatelly we haven`t had the time to train him enough in the wagon, so he didn`t do the driving test this year and couldn`t be approved due to this......
I guess we will show him again next year and train him properly so that he can do the test (and hopefully he`ll be approved then).


Mona doing the last finish before the show...
He`s has a grown a lot and the vet measured him to 146 cm in hight.
Two happy friends :)
Camella Boy - now 5 years old -has also developed much over the last few years.
The jugdes said he was a stallion of good type with a good shoulder and really good movements. Unfortunatelly he didn`t get approved because of the angles in his legs weren`t good enough (don`t know the English term for this...sorry...)
But he has such a good temper and and is a great driving horse.
He did the best driving test of the day and achieved 46 out of 50 points!!
He really loves to pull the wagon :)
He was measured to 143 cm in hight.
Showing off for Simply Red and telling him who`s the boss!
Unforunatelly he is a bit bogburned, so he looks a little funny.
Camella Boy, me and Mona during the driving test - the judge was really pleased with this well mannered boy :)

Well, that`s all for today - I have some movies to, but haven`t edited them yet, so they will have to come later ;)
Hope you`ve enjoyed!

Camella Boy Warrior

It`s been a while since Camella Boy Warrior (or Corny as we call him here at home) has been in the spotlight, so here are a few new photos of him.
He will turn 5 years this summer and is developing into a nice, compact stallion with an exciting colour!
Not cleaned up in the pics, but I think he looks pretty good anyway ;)
Showing off.....

He is a buckskin pearl and we are very excited to see if he will give away some crazy colours to his offspring this season.
Love his brown stripes in the mane - it looks so cool!
He will be attending a stallion approval at the end of this month, hopefully it will turn out in our favour ;)
