Meet Banner

Posted 06-10-2008 at 08:11 AM by prairienights
I've decided to start working on this blog to keep track of my progress with Banner. I'm not offended if none of you are interested, this is more for my own journaling uses so I can have something to look back on, but I also love feedback!!

So here's Banner:

Name: Registered is Reignforest, Barn name is Banner
Breed: Off the track thoroughbred
Age: 5
Sex: Gelding
Height: 16.2
Training: Very little, he was raced, had a year off, 10 rides undersaddle when I got him, and I'm training him for hunter/jumper with a little dressage.
Bio: Sired by Forestry and out of Gold Princess (pedigree: http://www.pedigreequery.com/reignforest2 ) He was sold for $175,000 as a 2yo, raced only seven times, and was retired early because his hocks just weren't holding up to racing. He sat out in a field getting skinny, and then I found him and fell in love. He's perfectly sound for low/medium level work (up to 3-feet jumping), and is thus perfect for what I'm using him for.

And several photos of my time so far with him:

When I first met him...rain rot, scratches, skinny, needed a haircut, but oooohhhh so sweet!

Bannaner Banner and I and his new halter. Look, he's a model! http://www.raraequus.com/ProductCart...dproduct=22003

He looks snazzy all tacked up

Our first lesson...we'll get there, haha


So that's my Banner!!! Stay tuned for updates and LOTS of pictures
