I'm glad you and your family are having fun with Mellanie Surprise. It is frustrating trying to upload pictures without guidance :x . I'm glad I was on the computer while you were struggling. :P

Toadie I don,t know the expression defect, but she won,t become even an
lady rider as she is already 5feet 3 weighing some 88 pds and has to come eleven in september.
She (the girl) is very uncertain but the filly is very easy to handle trustworthy and carefull

Wow. That's one kind race filly! I'm sure her mellow personality is appreciated around the barn.

BenB, it really means "to come over to the enemy side", but I just meant should she decide to come to the U. S. :wink:

Ok, send him over here too! :lol: I got up at 5am this morning to take the Horse Chestnut son out to school cross country jumping, and just made it home in time to clean up and get to LoneStar to see another of my trainer's horses run. I usually get home from work at 3am, so I'm not used to getting up with the chickens :!:

Lovely filly!

Postby Denise » Thu Aug 17, 2006 7:50 am

I'm with you Skipitgirl: first thing I look at are feet. Sounds weird, but since our first horse we ever bought has the world's best disposition but with the world's WORST feet, I follow from the ground up! :P
