At one show after our  test one of the judges told us ” He has the gaits to do this”  This was VERY encourging.  

Stilts continues to be wonderful to show. we just have to arrive about an hour before our class, we show out of our trailer.  We just  get taked up, me dressed and go warm up 20 min before our ride and then ride our test, then back to the trailer to wait for the next test.  and repeat for each test.  he is ALWAYS stands quiet at or in  the trailer just eating  hay waiting to go again.

He is always the gentleman and has gotten quiet a followning at the shows loving  his looks, talent , wonderful temeperament and great work ethic.
