Who is your newest horse?

[Courtney]

Here's a fun thread to get us started Talk about the newest addition to your stables and share pictures!

This is my newest Swedish Warmblood stallion, SH Lecouvreur. He seems to be learning very quickly and is quickly becoming one of my favorites!



Getting ready for his first show!


And schooling at home

[Christina]

;D Courtney, Lecouvreur is gorgeous!

I have a couple of new horses too! These are kind of my coats-in-testing, so I hope to get some feedback from you guys!

[Sarah@Runzo]

Wow - Lecouvreur is lovely, Courtney! And Christina, that grey is just gorgeous!

I have two new horses, Suiker (grey) and Edelsteen (black, but you could probably figure that out through process of elimination).





I must confess that right now, I'm kind of playing favorites, at least when it comes to screenshots... Edel just isn't as pretty as Suiker. Edel does, however, have a much better personality. Suiker is kind of flighty.

Courtney: I love your horses head shape and that jump in the last picture is a wow!
Christina: Love all your horses! That Grey one In the first photo is stunning!
Sarah: Suiker is just beautiful! I love his grey tone and markings on his legs.

[Christina]

Sarah! I love Edelsteen! Vivian..wow! I'm really liking that bay!

[Courtney]

Thank you! Everyone has such beautiful horses!! I'm very partial to the steel grays Christina, I love the white face on yours! What kind of gray is he?

This is Scarlett and her mother (Tickle me Pink). Scarlett's part of this month's foal crop (: I'm really happy with how she turned out. She's part of my experiment with breeding Appaloosas with Standardbreds. I don't know how well she'll do conformation-wise, but for some reason I really love her coat, even though it's kind of unnatural.

ILA Yankee Bayonet!!!

"I have been shopping for a beautiful seal bay for several years and never came across one that I felt would do
wonders contributing to the name of our operation at Iron Lake Acres, until I found this handsome guy for sale at
a stable in Bridgeport. Andreas accompanied me for the trip to the city and we were both instantly in awe of him.
He seems to know he's a bit of a big deal, a city horse if there ever was one; pampered and spoiled. He is a bit hard
to handle, and definitely requires an experienced handler and rider, but he is sound and completely broke. Due to the
exceptional success of Balandro's Riddle in show jumping arenas, we were able to afford this horse (who has remarkable
bloodlines). In the past, owning him would have only been a pipe dream.

He is ours now, though and we couldn't be more excited. I've been working with him exclusively since he arrived and I can
feel an incredible amount of energy in him when we're working. I can't wait to get him in the show ring."

What gorgeous horses, everyone! All of the warmbloods here are basically making me drool.

Noel, I agree that Scarlett's coat is really unique - it's quite pretty!
Christina, I must join everyone in saying that that grey is absolutely lovely; it's just so striking! Though I do quite like all of those coat colours, tbh.
Vivian, I love the subtle dapples on that bay - sooo pretty!
And Adelia, I just gushed all over Yankee in an e-mail to you, but it bears repeating that he is gorgeous. That countershading is just slaying me!

Now, after all these warmbloods, I'm going to move into some pure hot-blooded horses. They're not necessarily my newest horses, but they are pretty new to this world: my current crop of Arabian foals!

[Sarah@Runzo]

Thanks so much for the kind words, everyone and now... so many more beautiful horses!

Noel, I don't think Scarlett's markings are unnatural looking at all! They remind me a lot of this foal.

Adelia, I have to agree with Erin - Yankee is GORGEOUS.

(Edit: typo

[Vivian]

awww Erin! Those arabian foals are all gargerous!

[Erin]

Thanks, Vivian! I'm finding it really hard to sell, well, any of them, but them's the breaks, I suppose! The two more reddish bays are actually for sale here right now - I already miss them. :(

Also, your Teke is very pretty! I've started to really get into sim!Tekes myself, so I may be biased, but still: pretty!

[Noel]

The horses from my foal crop! I'm very attached to Paper Moon and Paper Heart, but I'm kind of biased. I love my appys. (:

Erin, I love your foals! I'd totally apply, but I don't have a use for any Arabians right now ;-;

[Erin]

Thanks, Noel! I feel the same way about your foals, tbh - Paper Moon's coat is just stunning!

[Noel]

Thanks! He sold pretty fast. I got like 6 applications within a day, and for my first foal crop, I think that's pretty good (: Now I just need to sell Paper Heart and Paper Doll..
