Fantastic video! I would be useless as a judge. They're all so stunning. I'm glad that gorgeous black colt won. Every time I see a black Arabian I think of Walter Farley's Black Stallion books. I read those over and over when I was a kid.

I'm partial to western riding, so I'd love to see more of the western classes. As for some of the colors - on the young horses - I think some of those colors may not have an exact name because the horse is likely transitioning to gray. Their coats can do a lot of color changes before they settle down. I had one gray, and he started out chestnut, then had about a year of such blotchy red-orange and white coloring that he looked kinda mangy. I was actually worried that was the color he'd stop at, but thankfully his coat continued to change, and he ended up being a beautiful blue-gray with black legs and points, and a silver and black mane and tail. His legs were even chestnut initially, so it was all a surprise to me. I was just relieved when he was done - and so pretty, too. 🥰

Thanks for your input about the western classes. I will be uploading some of those in the next few months, so if you are subscribed with notifications turned on, then you will be notified when those get published. Your little foal that grew up sounds like it ended up having a beautiful color! I am really surprised the chestnut changed like that!

I can't remember if that one was in a half Arabian class or a purebred class. If purebred then it is not a roan, but it could be if it's half Arabian. I'll go double check that when I can.

Yes that’s a red roan. Ps- the “chestnut “ with flaxen mane and tail is actually a sorrel color

He is a rose grey, he will be solid white when he gets older. Grey horses are often another color when they are young, then they often turn dappled grey, then solid white.

He is a rose grey, he will be solid white when he gets older. Grey horses are often another color when they are young (this one was born chestnut, giving that rosey look), then they often turn dappled grey, then solid white. Horse at 5:16 is also a grey, depite being dark. Purebred arabians don't come in true roan, but can carry the rabicano gene that creates a roanish appearance.

I remember back in the day when you could just take your every day saddle and bridle and enter into shows and you could win your class. Nowadays if you don't have a $1000 saddle and a $10,000 horse, you don't win. Now you can't hardly show anymore unless you can tie a lot of money into it. 4-H is also the same way, only because the parents put everything they have financially so their kid can win, not teaching the child anything. I miss the old days.

Love to see the Beautifully turned out shiny horses, but wow do I cringe at the amount of draw reins, tight martingales and chains I see in that warm up ring! In dressage we call the hyperflexation Rolkur….and it is abhorrent because that much neck flexation causes numerous problems, including oxygen deficiency. PS- I know Arabian horses tend to carry themselves with a natural break at the poll- I wonder if their unique conformation allows for more neck flexation than the typical dressage horse?

@MagnificentHorses 4 ай бұрын

Thanks for the info! I'm guessing the natural head carriage of Arabian horses does help keep them from having problems. Arabian horse people spend a lot of money on their horses and love them dearly, so I can't imagine they would do something that hurts them.❤️

Every Arabian horse that has to have their head tied down to their chest is being abused. It’s like if we all had to be looking over our reading glasses if we wore them everywhere we walked or drove. These horses have beautiful arched necks that don’t have to be tied down to be seen.

I really do appreciate your concern, but these horses live a great life. They are pampered and cared for like a few other horses in the world. They are given the best feed, the best bedding, the best vet care, regular shoing, and the owners love them with all their hearts. You are trying to project onto them how you think a human would feel if treated like a horse. But horses are not human.

The bit is only extreme if it is pulled on too hard. None of these horses are throwing their heads in the air or acting out, which is what they would do if that was causing too much pain. The high tail set is actually completely natural and that's a characteristic of Arabian horses.

@@MagnificentHorses I disagree. I've had Arabs and a certain height of tail carriage is natural, this isn't.
