My coach is here giving a clinic and one of my clients wanted him to try and put his two together as a pair. They had been put together about two and a half years ago and the fellow that did it said they would never work together. I have had the off side horse since then, driving him as a single and a in a pair with our old guy. The near side horse has been with a dressage trainer since then and hasn't been hooked. It is interesting that two and a half years ago they looked just alike. Now Tristan is 10 and has really filled out! Captain is 8 and so much more narrow. Of course Tristan works an hour a day pulling a 500 pound carriage, that will put some muscle on a guy. These photos are from day two of them being together. They just may work as a pair. http://s239.photobucket.com/albums/ff299/CDEDriver/Tristan%20and%20Captain/ |

We were at the state fair. One of the kids qualified with a team and a single. One his ponies went lame and he was there with only his single. A friend and I saw this and may friends pony is a a black of similar size. Both single ponies are broke and broke well. Both have also been driven as a team but not with each other. The kid won with this make shift team. They were not perfect but both good enough on that day. It didn't hurt that the kid is one heck of a driver for a kid. Broke is the key and both horses know their job. I wouldn't be afraid to put these two together and work them. They may get together with a little time. They could certainly match for color. LF |
