Congrats to all! Also congrats to my co-worker who is an ammy and took her horse in the derby. She just sent me an awesome shot of him jumping out of the ring. I am so in awe of her talent and guts, and her willingness to go play ball in the derby with the pros. I so wish I could have been there. THIS was the Derby to see, not Devon Next year!

Veronica, I commented to Sing Mia and Pardon Me that she was the ONLY one who smiled, she truly looked like she was having a BLAST out there! |

And his owner is so nice. She was in the schooling area on Sat morning when I was going up to show and she wished me good luck. I thought that was nice. |

She is very nice and a class act. She's also an excellent, excellent rider and has put a lot of hard work into Gully. She's the opposite of those riders who get handed a super made, super fancy horse and just go pose. She has really worked with him, making him better and better each ride. She's also a great sportsman and complimentary when other people do well. I am very proud to know her. She has a demanding job, not the easiest horse ever (though a lovely, lovely horse), and she travels a distance to ride-- but she manages to find time and now the hard work is paying off. I think she won both her A/O classes on Gully at Swan Lake. I assume she ended up champion but I forgot to check. |

I remember when she first started him in the A/Os (I was still a younger...sigh...) and showed against her at the lovely December Our Farm shows and he has come a long way. She should be very proud of the job that she has done with him. |

Can you help me out a bit? Was this the girl with the HUGE grin on her face during the entire course on a bay? If so, one couldn't help rooting for her. She looked as if she was having the time of her life. |

Like RHowell said, Gully is actually chestnut. He is a blast to ride...like riding an oversized pony! I got to show him in the first years a few years back, but he only showed through Devon and then got hurt. Christi rides with us and is truely one of the most talented and sincere people in this sport. She has more natural ability than most and still puts in a ton of hours...not getting to the barn until 8 pm most nights. We tease her that she doesn't know how to ride in the day light. |

Thanks to CGolden, vxf111, justmagic, Good Gravy, J. Loh, heineken and LGW, TOC has its newest member. I had to join just to thank all of you for the high compliments you paid the RockStar (that humbly goes by Gulliver). I am only one of *HIS* many people, all of whom deserve far more credit than I. (And based on some of your comments, I think someone else has been showing him in my absence!) He is as much fun to ride as he looks, but I think you could have had a blast riding that derby course on an emu!!! I have never had so much fun riding in my life - and at Swan Lake, no less! |
