i m no good for advice for evaluations / gradings as i ve only ever done 2 !

the KNN gradings last Sept ., & Springos BSPA evaluation in March & they are very different to "showring" showing so i ll be looking for help & advise off you lot :wink:

but what i would reasure you with is in the tiny 2 outing experience i ve had at 2 very different evaluations

......at both everyone was friendly & helpful , clearly explained exactly what they want you to do ( and seemed happy to go over it repeatedly until i grasped exactly what they meant!!!!! :oops:

). They just want to see your horses at thier best & will help you to be able to show them what they need to see to evaluate them . you ll have the ring to yourself for your evaluation so your horse / foal isn t compared directly against another as it would be in a show ring

its a similar situation to a dressage test :roll:

....i supose :wink:

please full report & masses of pics as i haven t a clue myself and am relying on advise off you lot ! :wink:

all of you going together will be fantastic you really enjoy it ! :wink:

They are evaluations for foals/youngstock. Info here http://www.bef.co.uk/downloads/F1V1.doc

Wow the foals are looking fantastic!

Flash is going to be a real eye catcher he is now! so can you imagine the effect he is going to have when he gets older.

I bet you are really tempted to keep him.

Is twinks still known as twinks or as in some of the pics checkmate is under his pics?

Definitely not known as Checkmate - that's just going to be his posh name - but some people here do call him Shadow not Twinks!!

laurenefb · by **laurenefb** on Mon Jul 14, 2008 8:14 pm

I call him the posh version of Twinks = Twinkletoes! Cos it sounds funny!!

ljj · by **ljj** on Tue Jul 15, 2008 8:26 am

Im glad he's known as twinks I think it suits him!
