Billy strutting his stuff

Such a good boy :) I am really looking forward to watching him grow and progress in his training.

Aww he looks like he's wearing black lipstick :P What a cutie!

Yay the biting process!

Haha Skyes, yes he has very black lips :P

He looks so grown up in a bridle, my baby is getting old! I'll start working him in long reins come summer, he'll be two then as well and he's getting ratty needing a job so I think it's high time to start some pre-breaking work. Everything except lunging and actually getting on him!

How exciting!! He's looking awesome :P

I went away to work at a warmblood stud this week and saw a fishermans friend filly. It was amazing how much she and Billy looked alike at the movement on her...wow! Rode some amazing horses but this little fish filly I could have stolen!

Fish certainly stamps his progeny!! You can tell that its a Fish from a mile away, they've all got stunning trots, beautiful front ends and superb rideability - hence, I bought one!!!!

Oh yes definitely! This littlw filly had OUTSTANDING confo and an eye so much like Billy he was the first thing that came to my head! She had such presence too :) What you just wrote describes this filly exactly!

I'm glad Flirt isn't the only one getting a bit antsy and in need of a job. Can't wait for the weather to clear up a bit, so the ground can dry out and not be so slippery! Then it will be time for all Flirt's pre-breaking work too!

Oh yes, they ALL have the same eyes! Those sort of 'Fishy' beady, expressive eyes that watch you all the time :P

HC - If Flirt takes to mouthing as easily as Billy, you might as well start tomorrow haha :P

Flirt has worn a bit before without a drama. He unfortunately outgrew his bitless show bridle before our show in April so I had to do a quick education in wearing a bit for that.

I've just bought him a D-ring with copper rollers to actually do his proper mouthing with though!

As a side, semi-related hijack....what size bridle and bit is Billy using at the moment?

SOOO gorgeous :).
