The Queens Diamond aka "Molly"


Molly is our future "In Hand" show prospect. At one year she is already 14hh, 750lbs. She is conformationally correct with superb uphill movement, striking alertness and carriage. She recently completed a clinic at Gene and Sonya Browns, and I was very thrilled with her performance. Here is a photo a Di Ann did that shows Molly hobbled for the first time. Note how calm she is, and no one is near her. This is what I love about the Gypsy as a breed. While they are still horses, with horse predator/prey instincts, they are by and large a very docile breed. Sonya did a superb job getting Molly ready for this moment working her and de sensitizing her for about 15 min prior. Thanks Sonya!!!!

Look how far away everyone is from her! Most babies would be uncomfortable with no one close by for security.
