Silly question from me beks, i always presumed taran was cut, was it just a turn of phrase or is he a stallion?
Just being nosy, either way he is flipping gorgeous :)

[My Crazy Clan]

lol must be just me but I can't picture him like a stallion, hes seems so I duno calm etc

He looks fab though, lovely photos.

I was told when I bought him he was cut late and used as a stallion. I though as he didn't act very stallion like (except round mares in the field only) but I found out the other day he was cut at 12 years old and used as working stallion. He has impecable manners though. He was very thin when I got him 2 years ago it has taken me this long to be able bring out the best in him. He is a real gem xx

lol at the tyre jump! Could he possibly curl up any smaller, lol.

Looking fab.

Aha, it rings a bell now beks, my memory is like a sieve!!
I remember when you first got him, he has come a long way indeed, i can just about remember the pictures you posted and he did look so different, cant beleive that is two years ago, my gosh, doesnt time fly :eek:

I think because your lads are well cared for etc, they look like stallions - Taran was cut at 12 years. Taran came to me very thin and depressed. Someone has beaten him (there are whip marks cut along his flanks) which is probably why he has brilliant manners because he is scared. He is only, this past year starting to come out of his shell and put on top-line condition! He is 15 years.

True I forgot he had a bad start, have you any photos of the marks? I don't think I've ever seen them, unless they arn't that noticable to us in photos.
He must have been hit hard to show whip marks.

I guess it could be because M&M are younger?, they might grow out of their likeness, if you get me lol

[Cinders]

I love taran, he always looks so up for it! lovely pics! x

I don't have any clear pictures of them, but you can see the cross on his top of his bum:

Hehe looks like he was full of himself today!
His jumping is looking fantastic

[Loony]

He looks like sooooo much fun :D

[gem]

Phwoar someone's a bit happy!! :D Love those pics. I know just what you mean about the daft spazzywoo thing he does. Rookie did exactly the same about 4 strides before a jump. I tried to fight it but in the end I just had to line her up and set up the stride then leave the rest to her. And cling on :)

[My Crazy Clan]

Its so good to know hes ended up with a good owner.

[flipper]

Wow! He's stunning. Love the 1st tyre picture. You can see his strength in that picture. He's truly scrumptious!
