Going with Genny’s brilliant abbreviation, current trial horse will currently be referred to as the BDH [Barbie Dream Horse] until the time that he is either returned to his owner or becomes formally mine.
I had my first real ride on him yesterday, and honestly it couldn’t have gone better. The biggest thing for me to get used to is his size, going from 14.2h TC to a 16.3h banana boat is a little alarming at first. But I’m sure it will come back to me- I just have to remind myself that both Smitty and Foster were 16.2h, and that felt totally fine at the time.
I started out in the indoor arena, favoring an enclosed area as a good place to start, but BDH wasn’t convinced that there was enough room in there to canter, so with a bit of friendly peer pressure from my buddies got me outside where that was space to roam.
Anyways, don’t take my word for how well it went, watch the video!
Red on the Right 
gah but he is so pretty!
Fingers crossed for a fab vetting!
omg he is loooooovely!!! I have such a soft spot for palominos!
Love. SO PRETTY
BDH!
Awww he looks like such a dude!
Sooooo dreamyyyyyy!
Beautiful horse, I had two horses, one was 16.2 the other 14.2, I was unaware of feeling the difference between the two! My big handsome man has sadly passed away now, but my 14.2 is doing well even at 23 ❤ Good luck!
I’m trying to figure out if the age old “riding while blonde” George Morris dis goes for blonde horses too.
LoL – that sun-kissed blonde 🙂 here’s hoping he’s a great fit!!
Oh he’s rather nice
Dreamy boy 🙂
