Saga is a 16.2 hh, 9-year-old registered AQHA gelding (I call him my Texas warmblood). In his past life he's been a racehorse, a trail horse, and the part of a rodeo half-time show. I'm hoping that he will become my next event horse. This is his story.
AKA Cash, my 15.2 hh Paint gelding. In his heyday, he competed and won at Training level HTs and showed 2nd level dressage (schooled 4th). Now 22, he's retired and living the good life. This picture was taken of us going Training in 1999.

My husband's horse, Red, a 14.2 hh Missouri Fox Trotter gelding. He's a cute little booger, if a tad bit... um, short. But he jumps, does lovely dressage, and will pack you around a trail all day long.
I just came across your blog for the first time today, and I had to grin when I saw your Texas Warmblood, as well as your Paint and Missouri Fox Trotter. What a fun and exciting collection of versatile sport horses! My guy is a "North Dakota Warmblood" QH gelding whose sire was a barrel racing buckskin. His power and sensitivity rivals the warmblood horses with whom I have crossed paths. And he gets an A+ for personality! I just love to see sport quarter horses and I look forward to reading more about your adventures with your beautiful eventing partner.
Val, I'm so sorry I didn't see your post before now! I unfortunately have been so caught up in our new house that I've let my horse blog get rather way behind. Please, if you see this, drop me a line! Do you keep a blog about your boy? He's very handsome!
I love this squirrel story! It never gets old.
