Alright.
I will be ready!

I have another question. (sorry for bothering you about this so much haha)

It mentions in the rules that you will judge body condition for the progeny.
My Caspian herd is so large that when I cull some from the breeding population they get put in a pasture where they eat a bunch of grass and wind up quite fat.
There are so many Caspian, in fact, that monitoring the body condition is extremely difficult and often very inconvenient.

Should I make preparations to get all of my horses in shape for the judging?
And how many points are docked for fat ones?

It's all good! I'm glad you are asking - because most of this is in my head but not on forum - which is bad. To answer your question, I will be looking at the overall condition of her offspring. No points will be deducted for a really fat horse but I will be adding bonus points ( 5 per horse ) if they have fantastic conformation for a Caspian. This however is more of a "bonus". These points will be more of a deciding factor is there is a close tie between two competitors. Think of it as the secondary icing on the cake?

[that mess up in horses made me feel a little bad, so even though you didn't compete I wanted you to be in the top 4.]

5th goes to grassybutt as they rehomed their mare, and the prize money has been removed as well.

As my work schedule is funny at the moment this could be subject to change.
Ok! Now lets talk prizes. I will be on Friday morning at 10:00 to exchange an unwanted horse for your prize money and for those of you who won a Deliboz to get that horse to you.

You don't have to get me a fully trained one (or the money haha, I just wanted to participate because it seemed fun)
But I wouldn't mind a filly, to add some new blood to my herd when I start it back up again.
