Gent Video - Showing what he's learned

[zippy-kat]

ha ha I can just see it...

*THWACK!*

Poor head! Aren't they so funny?!

HINT HINT I'd sure love to see some more pictures of YOUR little girl.

Dirty, dusty winter coat and all? I'll see what I can do this weekend.

Miss Mare's pretty calm and slow... usually, TOO slow. I talked to a friend and she thinks the loping issues might be related to balance and headset. She suggested working on half-halts for the balance. For headset, I have a training fork that I LOVE but, because I have to shorten my reins quite a bit, I FEEL like I'm too heavy handed with it (she sure as heck works the bit when I use it, though - I've never seen her so slobbery unless it involved cookies ).

Anyway, I'll shush now. I didn't mean to detract from your boy's glory! We can cuss and discuss when I get around to posting a Summer thread.

I can't believe I didn't see this thread until now.
I just love Gent, he is such a handsome and talented Morgan.
I love all his fancy footwork and tail action.
Thank you for posting a video of him, I love seeing him in action.
I can't remember but did you say in the past that he is a Lippitt Morgan?
Does he have any of the UVM horses in his pedigree?

I am not sure of any of the horses were ever from UVM, but his pedigree can be seen here

gonig back generations right back to Figure (Justin himself).

He goes back to Croydon Prince, Croydon Mary, Ethan Allen the third, Polly Rogers, Donald, Sealect, Coprnwallis is a Sealect son, etc.

If you scroll down you can see the foundation stock of the Lippitt, it's interesting reading.
