I guess next time a phone call could save you a disappointing trip. <br /><br />It's too bad that Rhett didn't do well, but I do attribute a lot of placing to politics. I don't think there is any way to ever stop it though.Grey Horse Mattershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05837575441967937196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6053415389447235937.post-39970378070564580672009-12-30T06:46:48.481-08:002009-12-30T06:46:48.481-08:00We have the same issues with halter horses in the ...We have the same issues with halter horses in the stock breeds.....many of the top placing horses don't actually fit the breed standard, and you KNOW they will not be able to be ridden once they are mature. My filly only did so-so in halter last year, but we did really well in Lunge Line class. I'm hoping she does a bit better in halter this year (as a 2 year old), but my ultimate goal is riding...Luluhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17895025606531963182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6053415389447235937.post-64847116743721098712009-12-30T06:34:57.187-08:002009-12-30T06:34:57.187-08:00I hate Mapquest.

The directions are often not direct and they aren't up to date. <br /><br />I'm sorry Rhet didn't place as well as you had hoped but he's young yet. There is plenty of time to prove himself. One day, one show....and all that!Hollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17685436243608973979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6053415389447235937.post-73721974994486662542009-12-30T02:32:21.255-08:002009-12-30T02:32:21.255-08:00i was wondering if you were able to find a feed st...i was wondering if you were able to find a feed store. actually when you first mentioned that the hay there was bad, i thought, "go find a feed store mikael!" <br /><br />i am dismayed to read this post, because when people are rewarded for bending the rules (ok, breaking the rules), that is when the whole game becomes corrupt. western pleasure is my personal pet peeve, when people are rewarded for riding false gaits. <br /><br />apparently one of your judges has integrity, and rewarded rhet and jesse for not breaking rules.<br /><br />it makes me so angry because i don't want to be ashamed of my breed, but trends sway people, and judges too. if i wanna see parked out horses, i can watch a different breed show!<br /><br />~lythalythahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01719586193059362084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6053415389447235937.post-69254845246324977222009-12-29T22:18:12.006-08:002009-12-29T22:18:12.006-08:00I was sorry to read what happened to Rhet in his c...I was sorry to read what happened to Rhet in his class. It's a downright shame MiKael.<br /><br />I know that many people who show stock horses will intentionally follow certain judges around and avoid going to shows where other certain judges are. I don't know if that is possible in the Arabian industry.<br /><br />You know Rhet is a qualified individual. Apparently a LOT of people know Rhet is a qualified individual!!!<br /><br />I hope you get your filly sold so you can go to Scottsdale! If you go, I will make a point to come down and help you any way I can. Let me know if there is anything I can do...I have lots of friends with places down there.;)BrownEyed Cowgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03610547057139295854noreply@blogger.com
