#thorougbred

Got this photo from the shipper last night. This is my boy “Follow the Signs”. I will be giving an introduction to him once I get to meet him myself and figure out what barn name suits him best. However, I wanted to include some pics of him since I posted about his purchase. 🏇🏼

In Germany when you want to wish well to a racehorse in an upcoming race you say "Hals- und Bein" (neck and leg) so that it stretches wide and runs fast, instead of the original "Hals- und Beinbruch" for humans (breaking of neck and leg.... I have no idea why this is said to wish well to anyone. It's weird).

I could stare at her all day

(George Silk. 1963?)

BUT!!! We had a nice ride, we worked through some of her hesitancy to move out, and she even cantered to the right under saddle!
