Griff,

That's my favorite, no white anywhere. But if I do get white, just hope it's evenly distributed.

Congratulations on winning the yearling class!

Jeff

Unfortunately my go to photo site Webshots is being changed over to a new format (Smile) so I was unable to upload the pics to the site I am most familiar with. I am trying out Flickr until I figure out which site is best for pic hosting (suggestions and comments welcome!).

Here is her album of pics - what a super grand filly she is!

http://www.flickr.com/photos/pennyroyal ... 712732661/

You can click on each picture there in the album for a larger view.

Lets see if I can do a pic preview here in the bulletin board:

Yeay! It worked! There are a few more pics on Flickr - just follow the link(s) above.

Love your filly, Griff!!

she's 20 months old and I'm not sure how to answer your question.

certainly hope so and I hope having a perfect conformation, size an good looks are not a negative, What do you think. is she worth a try?

She's quite a beauty! I admit that I am an unabashed admirer of solid colored horses, especially bays, despite all the lovers of loud colored horses who hang out here!
