Beau is an inbred Nocturne/Ben
Don--something which brought a
smile to my face when thinking of
all the emphasis the Western Working
Family and Jubilee King types put
on "sport Morgan." He also has a line
to the fabled Lippitt Miss Nekomia
who won the GMHA 100 Mile CTR in
the mid-40's. Physically, he
is the proverbial cute little round bay horse.
Beau qualified
for the 1997 ROC.
That's where I saw him. Unfortunately, the
vet bounced him for marginal gut sounds. One of
those "I know my
horse
and he's fine--I'm the vet and this
is my judgement call"
kinds of things. Beau
promptly
went over to his trailer
and began to chow
down. Sue subsequently
posted
a very
impassioned editorial to
Ridecamp on the
advisability of those
who want to Top Ten campaigning a
Morgan:
Greenall repeated some
of the sentiments she
originally expressed in:
and
Food for
thought.
