Hello All

Although I have been here for a while, I have never properly introduced myself. I am Tuano (not my real name lol) and I am 16 yrs old. I have been riding for about 11 years and I have owned my first and current horse for about 5.

Shoot a Feu (Shooter) is a 1997 TB gelding. He did race when he was a young lad, but has since been an eventer and jumper with me. He is quite a cheeky boy and is such a sweety! We evented at Training Level for the first time this year and we hope to continue at that level next year! Here are some pics ( I can change them to links if that is prefered):

Ciao!

He’s a cutie. :slight_smile:  Congrats on reaching training level.  My (off the track) mare and I just started at maiden level this fall.

He’s beautiful, sounds like you guys are doing very well together!

ALRIGHT!!! ;D Congratulations!!! And he’s simply GORGEOUS. :smiley:

thanks for all of the compliments  :slight_smile: Getting to training level was such an uphill battle. In 2006 we had a lot of unknown lameness problems. But no problems this year and not even a sore step after x/c day! We’re hopin its over and done with.  ;D

Hes a cutie! And i think that TBs just pick out the year they dont want to work and make up health problems!! lol (Mine did the same thing! :slight_smile:  ) Congrats on getting to Training level. I totally understand the whole uphill battle. I’ve done BN-Prelim and 1.2 meter jumpers so i get it completely!
