Regina,
I wanted to share with you the amazing success Miguel had this past weekend
at the Andalusian show in Ridgefield Washington, 2008! He is truly amazing! After
only 3 months of professional training with Angie Egberg he had the
following results:
Saturday:
Andalusian English Pleasure Hunt Seat Junior Horse: 1st place out of 6
horses
Andalusian Dressage Suitability Open: 1st place out of 5 horses
Andalusian English Pleasure Hunt Seat Open: 3rd place out of 6 horses
Andalusian English Pleasure Championship: Reserve Grand Champion out of 6
horses
Andalusian/Half Andalusian Versatility Western to English: 1st place (only
horse in class)
Sunday:
Andalusian Western Pleasure Junior Horse (3, 4, & 5 years old): 2nd place
out of 4 horses
Andalusian Western Pleasure Open: 2nd place out of 5 horses
Andalusian Western Pleasure Championship: Reserve Grand Champion out of 6
horses
Miguel took all of this showing in stride. He is a real gentleman and
handled all of the pressure very well. Angie has loved training him and I
will have more training done in the near future. Now he is back home and I
am going to start riding him again and I am going to take lessons from
Angie.
I just want to let you know that Miguel is definetely special and everyone
who works with him loves his sweet and funny personality. He is also
amazingly versatile easily going from Hunt Seat, to Dressage to Western.
Next year I hope to show him in pleasure driving also.
Thanks again for such an amazing horse!

 Second Andalusian show results as a yearling! Day 1 in halter classes:: Andalusian Yearling Colts: 4th place Andalusian Colts 2 years and under: 3rd place Stallions all ages, Amateur to handle: 1st place Day 2 in hand trail class: Second place He did great! He got second place. I was very happy with how he did. He was very calm throughout the whole thing and did everything I asked him to. Many older horses that were in the riding class refused to walk over the poles or the tarp and so it made me realize that all the work I have done with Miguel is paying off. We had to walk over 4 poles, take a letter out of a mail box and hand it to the ring steward, trot around a barrel, stop and put a rain coat on, trot around another barrel and take the rain coat off, walk over a tarp, walk through 2 parallel poles and back out, and then do a serpentine at a walk through several cones and walk out. We did everything correctly, but I think I trotted to wide around the barrels and did not walk wide enough on the serpentine and so we were not as polished as the girl who won. But I was still happy that he got second! I will definitely be entering Miguel in future trail classes! I also want to try reining with him. I watched the reining class at this show and it looked like a lot of fun. I also want to do dressage with him; it is a good foundation for everything.
