Futurity time!

"THE" Futurity kicks of today! NCHA Futurity that is. Close to 700 entries over some 20 day's of competition! All unshown 3 yearolds, really, really fun and exciting to watch. No favorites yet as they're like blank canvas before the goarounds. We'll head out there for the final week, watching the semis and the finals + a bunch of interesting stops along the way. Gonna be really fun that's for sure, but I'll miss Annelie, the kids and horses bad. Getting harder this travelling business and spending time away from home. Don't know if it's an age thing or what? Thank's to all for the congrats yesterday by the way!

Some more pics from yesterday.
Kick The Cat
Really pleased with her progress, (I might have mentioned that in a previous post or two...)
Ritzy's Dream
Annelies Ritzy is a really, really nice trotter. Fun to work with and a pleasure to drive.
La Flor del Viento
She's been saddled and I plan to start messing with her more during the winter. I'm in no real hurry to get on her though.
Fiffilina
Ida has started driving Fiffan now that she's to big to ride her. She's a great little Shetland that really enjoy's being driven.
Elton & Ida
Caught `em in mid stride during a leadchange! I love watching Ida work Elton! She's riding with minimal aids and really nice, soft hands....
