Oh dearie me he is just too beautiful, I love black boys with white faces and Apollo looks like he has great markings and a lovely relaxed personality :) Whats the plans for him (if that is not to nosy)

[cherokee]

I've got a complaint to make here.............













HE'S JUST FAR TOO GORGEOUS !!!!!!!!
:lol::lol::lol:

[froal]

He's Stunning what breeding is this lovely boy then...??:D

[GruesomeTwosome]

Absolutely Beautiful!!! Can you put on a pic with his mum? Bet she is a stunner too.

[Jovi]

Thank you for the lovely comments. So happy to have a 'big' horse again.
froal, His sire is Herculean Flash(Leapley Flashlight line) and dam is Hillmoor Ebrills Girl (sired by a Walton stallion).
Munron, plan is to enjoy him,I want to keep him entire and maybe take the plunge and do some showing :eek: along with ride and maybe drive like his Dad....how many hours in the day? We'll see.
Gruesome Twosome,I will try and put a pic up of parents but am having problems with photos,:(
He is so laid back(at the moment), he travelled brilliantly and has settled well,enjoying some good grass.He has been well handled and not much fazes him. The other horses are fascinated with him,watching his every move and he is loving a lot of attention and fuss.
Cherokee I may be biased but...I think he's gorgeous too

[cameroncara]

Wow very very handsome make sure you keep us upto date with his progress. xx

[froal]

he'll make a fantastic Ride & Drive with looks like that..!! :D
Is he welsh bred or have i got it completly wrong not very good at proper breed names.... !!Sorry:roll:

[K.B]

He is a stunner ;) love the heavy breeds infact ALL the breeds :lol:

[Jovi]

Hi froal,no he is a pure bred Shire,hopefully he will make a good ride and drive like his Dad. :)

[bullielove]

He is absolutely gorgeous... you are very lucky to have found such a handsome boy - he is going to be a cracker

Would love too hear how he is getting on . I have only just discovered horses and im in love... wish I had the opportunity years ago to get close to them.. Especially their lovely smell Mmmm

Thanks for sharing :D

[Jovi]

Thanks bullielove,yes I am lucky,thoughI spent a long time looking.Have just sneaked a look at him,he's flat out after a day outside...he's settled so well. :)

Stoooop... I am so jealous, how lovely is that - that you can just look outside to see him! I think I would have to get a tent and park myself out there:lol:

Can I share your tent bullielove?:lol:

Horses are such beautiful creatures and I would so love to have one. Thankfully, I can visit some just down the road from me every day.
