wow some of those jumps are massive.. beautiful pics of Arabians jumping.. my first bought purebred used to be a jumper before I got him.. I used to hate jumping but I took him to our local area show & decided to go in the jumping with him.. just a shame I never got pics.. he was a big 15.3 grey boy with 4 white socks & a big blaze & boy he knew his job on a jumping course, I remember all I had to do was just sit still & let him get on with it, really built my confidence up, I'm sad I had to sell him a few years back as he was such a gentleman, we were in the ribbons that day :) (he even won the barrel racing event too lol.. even though he was the biggest in the event lol.. had a massive gallop & could stop on a dime) boy do I miss him, still he is off giving other people much needed confidence so what more can one ask :)
I'm hoping to get another purebred in the next couple of years, although he will be a bit over 14hh but he's athletic as anything & runs on the smell of an oily rag. maybe I will do some jumping with him.. :)..
for now I will be content with my 13hh Arabian pony stallion who does enjoy a go over some small jumps when I set them up or find some logs in the bush.. he's a bunch of fun too, got some real energy has that one & can turn quickly :) |

Aww your first boy sounds fab Kazhak, how come you had to sell him? Sounds liek he will have given alot of confidence to other who needed it too :-)
Another picture of me and tao jumping last night. Once again, I know my position isnt fab at the moment but that doesnt bother me, Im more concerned about him getting over the jumps happily and calmly for now, the rest will follow

SKTao he wasn't my first, my dad breeds arabians but Jade was one I bought for myself to ride he was my first bought horse lol.. been around Arabians since I was about 5 or 6 years old lol..
I had to sell him as I moved interstate & had left him with my mother to look after till I got back, he needed a lot of care to keep him in top condition as his teeth had been sadly neglected by the previous owner & he'd been caught in a fence at some time in his life & needed special care of his back legs.. all up he was a bit too much for my mum to handle.. he was fantastic when you were on board but could be a bit iffy on the ground just due to some issues.. he was lovely to ride though.. was a sad day but I know I made the right choice for him as it would have been sad for such a versatile riding horse to be stuck in a paddock not doing anything he was only 16 at the time..
since then my dad has bred some lovely Arabians, one mare of which I had originally had my eye on as she was a big girl (over 16hh) with a big sweet heart, good legs & a stride that could take your breath away, sadly she ran herself through a fence & ended up unconcious, they brought her back but she has never been the same, will make a lovely broodmare though, so instead I now have my eye on one of dads ex stallions, he's now a gelding, & i'm just waiting on him being broken in.. he's only about 14hhs. lovely grey fellow & purebred, I haven't had a purebred personally since Jade, while I love my Arabian Ponies it would be nice to have a purebred again, especially one thats not too big but bigger than what I have now.. something a bit more competetive.. :)
by the way, your grey is lovely.. I understand what your saying about position & him getting over comfortably.. you guys look nice together..:) |

Here are two I missed off before - bay is Waywood Storm (2004)[ Waywood Junior out of Mesalina] who is only 13h 2ins and the chestnut is Drongo's son Bright Dragoon [out of Bright and Breezy] who was at our yard but moved to Sussex when his owner moved house.
