DANNY
This is the 'original' horse, a pure Arab with a perfect temperament,
but not a novice ride. An endurance horse of 'Silver Thistle'
standard. Babies and poverty resulted in him acquiring a new owner
but we still see him.

Sha Streak
Working at home after his winter clip.
The practice paid off as in the year of this picture he was the
Reserve Champion of the Ridden Hunter Classes at our County Show,
and obviously the Small Hunter Champion
|
Scottish Regional Group AHS
At the Arab Show at Fishcross.
On this occasion he was in good form. He was the top points winner
in the whole show and also qualified for a major Show down south.
This is Pippa Fisher on board.

Sha
At the Royal Highland Show [June 1999], in the Intermediate
Hunter class. Note the nice extension in trot. Also the quality
of the weather - Sha is a 'good weather' horse!
This is Jane on-board.

Sha at the Lanark Show (2000)
At the Lanark Show (now held in Fife) - in May 2000 he was Champion
Intermediate Horse. It is clear that he quite enjoys being the
'focus' of attention!
At the Lanark Show in the previous year [May 1999] he
was Reserve Champion Intermediate Horse and so qualified for the
Intermediate Hunters at Peterburgh. Both times ridden by Jane.

Sha ridden by his real Owner
This is the Angus County Show at Arbroath, before the move to
Brechin Castle grounds. Sha was Champion Small Hunter.
Even more remarkable - he beat the large hunter to become the
overall Hunter Champion of the Show!!

Fourth in Britain
In 1999 Sha qualified several times for the Royal Peterborough
Show.
In this class he was placed fourth. This was the working phase
of the The Ridden Intermediate Working Horse.
|
Interbranch Dressage
Rather a wet day!
Sha was first on after the rain delay and even with studs was
slipping badly. Despite that he was fourth, with really good marks
until he lost his footing. Picked up to sevens again by the end
of the test.

BSPS
- Peterborough 2000
Did not catch the Judges eye this year
despite the extension shown here, but he had been quite ill with an
allergic cough. The 'ventipulmin' cured the cough but modified his mind. Not
so laid-back now and flies his tail like a real
Arab. Since then he has had a major allergic skin eruption.
