Horse Trial Hoofprints


I realize I already posted some of these pics of the St. John Horse Trials...they must be good!

Billy was not built to jump, but he was certainly born to.
He truly seemed to love it.


Krista and Billy came in 4th at the 3 day St. John's Horse Trials...pretty exciting...especially since, on one of his first attempts, Billy totally collapsed a 4 pole jump. But rather than freak, he just stood there in the rubble and calmly waited for deliverance. I was impressed.

Hah...check out the big sisters, looming over their...daughter? No, their little sister. As to Billy and jumping, well, it was a little like doing dressage on a bulldozer. But he just loved the role; seeing him here in his prime reminds me of just what a horse he was....
