You need to click on the edit button above the photo and decrease it by 25% i think. Just once and they will change.

Zoe - When we showed some youngsters we were often against Sunray Scelebrity, a little keen with his back feet! What your Anglo by? Mine was by Donax I think out of a TB mare.
I like the heads on all of ours, they have kind faces especially the chesnut and the anglo.

Scelebritys her grandad on her dams side i think. Think shes inherited Saritocrats head though.
Planning on a trip down to Sunray, she has a stunning colt at the mo, though i do think i would be hung, drawn and quartered if i bought anymore horses! ;D

I've tried to resize in photobucket but they keep coming up as massive.
Scelebrity was stunning even as a youngster, I think it was Mr Selby who showed him, I was younger though and could be wrong.
Do you ride any of them? I have found that they take longer to mature both physically and mentally due to the Arab in them, what d you think?

If you click the button once and leave it it does resize them can just take a wee while.
Well Peris 7 this year and i would say hes def matured a lot over the winter and has grown into himself. He looked a bit gangly last year. He gets shown, but is concentrating on his dressage at the moment, and when i fancy a laugh i jump him ;D
Sophie the pba just a baby just turned 10 months, was hoping to show her this year but shes all legs at the moment so i will probably leave her to mature a bit.

Yep mine has grown up over the winter too, you can't rush it with them.
We too concentrate on dressage and pop a jump when we feel like it.

Meercat - I'm not mobile, as I passed my test after 1997. Which is a shame as I've done some dressage at Gleneagles both on the School horses and on a friends, lovely place, once though someone left the watering system on overnight, cue much flooding of indoor arena and not a happy bunch of employees!
Deano - There are a few around, we chose Yealand Night Echo as we'd seen a lovely example or two of his in the ring and he really is a lovely horse, he seems to have passed his personality onto his son as he's a gentleman. Your horse looks lovely too, I have a weak spot for a good grey, just wish they'd keep clean abit easier!
k211 - It is a shame but my Mum wants a replacement for her 31 year old mare and we can't afford to keep him and get a new one, hence bringing him up here. I'm totally gutted, and am crying typing this, I need to find the perfect home for him and trust someone to love him as much as I do nad forgive him when he's naughty etc.

Welcome smallgirl. I've added one of your pics to your first post for us to admire There's another showing site - The Show Ring - which is running a series of showing clinics just now. First one was last Saturday and the next one is 2 April. Maybe you would like to join the Show Ring if you are interested in joining in. (They're held at Devon Leisure)

Thats a pity, selling a horse is always a real heart wrench.
I passed my test in Ireland so had to do the whole towing test thing last year. It was tough but as i had to do loads of lessons i can now reverse a trailer into a postage stamp! Must admit though that the fact i had to sit the test really put me off getting mobile.

Welcome smallgirl Your horse is , i lurve PBAs! What a shame you have to sell him, we're lucky that the only one we've had to sell we couldn't wait to see the back of Mine is an Anglo and my Mum's (Arabist on here) is a pure-bred, so we know Arabs . You should take him to the Scottish Group Show in June - there is a link to the website on here
