Due to unforeseen circumstances poor Toman has not been out and about for around six months, so I thought you might like to see these few photos taken at a recent dressage competition where he worked in really well with all the other horses (even when on occasions he was cut up). He was the only Arab there and the only stallion and behaved impeccably - did we expect anything else.

Fabulous Pictures of them both,
what a great ambassador he is for the Arabian breed
I actually have the great pleasure and privilege of meeting Toman in the flesh yesterday, and pictures will never ever do him justice.
He is just breathtaking and is also the loveliest 'person' too
Keep up the good work xxxx |

Clearly his impeccable behaviour belies the fact that they were cutting up a "mad chestnut Arab Stallion". If only they had known
He is absolutely stunning Jude. No wonder you are so proud. Another one who really must get to see him in the flesh this year. Where will you be competing?

Thank you all so much for your lovely comments. What I forgot to say was that since Ann Hooley gave up the ride on Toman after his FANTASTIC ridden career - from 26 shows he gained 23 firsts and Championships galore - International and National - three times BNC, HOYS Stallion Championship TWICE and SUPREME once, - his ride was taken up by my daughter and they have gone on to achieve good standards in dressage.
We sometimes feel maybe we are stable blind to having this superb horse on the yard but everyone who visits comes away with the same awe and amazement, he really is such a genuine chap and we feel blessed to be owned by him.
Karen I am so pleased you had chance to see him yesterday and yes Pat we are so very proud of them both.
And before we get any complaints - he is NOT at Public Stud so have no need to advertise him anywhere - what other horse in recent years has achieved what he has?
Btw watch out for his "little girlie" she might be shown in the Crabbet classes this year

Quite simply put he is an ambassador, a perfect ambassador.
I'll never forget you leading him around within a couple of feet of lots of ladies, in just a headcollar and him being impeccably behaved while being kissed and cuddled by me!

He's real equine eye candy. Lovely pictures and a credit to everyone involved in his past and present production. And how did y'all get on with the test |
