Well we had our first show of the season on Saturday the 26th April at The Caves.... The Saturday saw the miniature horse and pony and shetland show and the Sunday was The Caves Agricultural show. Jolly was such a good boy and it was a big weekend for him. He placed 3rd in the yearling and under class. That was the only class for the mini show that he could enter, and on the sunday with the ag show they had all the males in together.... I thought that was a bit unfair... babies competing against stallions.... but he got 2nd!!! He was beaten by his brother (Kildaire Rock-a-billy Rebel) and bet 2 other stallions.... I couldnt believe it, I truly was on top of the world. I now know what the standard is like so aim to do just that aswell...... but the experience and fun was certainly something and the lovely people I met was great. Jolly, being so little was a real hit with people and kids and other horses. So keep watch on this little man..... he is destined to be a real head-turner!!
His next show isnt until June.... at Finch Hatton, just north of Mackay.
