Showed the Mrs the pics - she says that's a beautiful dapple grey. She used to ride; dressage and showjumping. She wants to know how big the horse is; she's guessing at 14 hands, whatever the heck that means - she can't explain it to me.
Thanks - he's just over 15h, and is a pure bred Arabian :-)
LOL - you sound very talented at the jinxing, did it take lots of practice? :mrgreen:
I had two short lived relationships with a couple of ladies who had horses. They sensed my apprehention. One did a Lone Ranger on me and off I went. The other just sort of bucked me off. Each of the girls said that it happens and I gotta get back on. forget that! My steelhorses treated me just fine. :P
Very nice looking horse, btw. If you ever got to the mountains here in NC, go on a mountain ride. Those horses climb those mountains and develop some massive hind quarter muscles. It's actually very impressive.

Yep - that thing does happen with horses.... They can be quite highly strung.
NC sounds like a fab place to go for ride :)
Wow that CLint Eastwood horse and the horse on your pic look eerily similar, like the kinda white spots on the neck are the same O_O.

You gotta set your sights high to get high!
