| My new event prospect He's only four years old, he isn't scared of a thing, and he's finally a horse of mine that loves to jump!
What do you think? |

Horses: 0 | I think he's really cute! He just needs some muscle toning, but i think he'd be a nice prospect to bring along. His throat latch seems clean, he's legs look decent. Good luck with him and let us know how it goes. |

For his muscle tone, he's actually full of muscle! Not quite in the right places, but we'll work on that. He's very thick but little at the same time, I think I might have trouble fitting tack to him. |

My trainer likes to build horses to their potential slowly, but once I start really trying to ride into him coming spring I think he'll tone up more. I'll definitely post pictures once he's in more work. |

| His name is Skittles and I'm making his show name Barefoot Truth (he's barefoot, haha). He's 15hh - He is super cute huh? He honestly has the best coat and best feet I've ever seen on a horse personally. He's so happy and healthy. |

Horses: 0 | He does seem thick but I don't see that as an issue personally. I love his colouring and markings! He looks like he has a great humour about him. I bet he'll be lots of fun! I love brave horses! |
