Two Year Old Stallion

This is 'SP', short for Seve's Pushover. He is out of the World Champion TWH stallion, Seve, & his dam (mother) is out of another well bred stallion, The Pushover. He is definitely bred for performance & should have a chance to strut his stuff in the show ring. He is BIG, BLACK, & BEAUTIFUL. (He has not been stalled, but running outside in the pasture, so his coat is sunburned & bleached. When stalled, he will be coal black.) We haven't measured him yet, but he's probably already close to ... maybe over ... 16 hands, & he's only 2 yrs. old. He will continue to grow until he is 4-5 years old, so he will definitely be a TALL one. He is now old enough to start to work...all I need is the time & $$$ to train him!

He's very handsome, but my heart belongs to Rod Stewart.

How many horses, total, do you have?

I'm remembering seeing about 18, but there must be more. Because every other post shows a new one.

P.S. Although we normally don't actually ride the horses until they are three years old, as a 2 yr. old this young stallion is ready to start light lunge line work & to also learn to wear a bridle & saddle. As the youngsters gradually learn to be tacked up, they tend to accept the actual riding when they are old enough to carry the weight.
