Premium colt with a very successful show record in hand as a foal. Now under saddle with a quiet disposition
Shwatch is a slower maturing (translate- still a little geeky), very quiet gelding with three good gaits. When he finally fills out and develops his topline, he will be amazing!
Here he is on July 30, 2012 (it was a tail-flagging day....):

Dirty and hairy yakling, sorry.....
At Dressage at Devon 2011, Shwatch was placed 7th in the colts of 2011 class. Shwatch had been to two prior breed shows with Shilhouette, where both times he was named Reserve Champion Foal right behind Shilhouette. Both judges said it could have been either of them for Champion and their scores are within just a few points of each other. Shwatch is a very fancy colt with a very good walk (better than Shilhouette's, in fact) and a super trot and canter. He will be one for the big dressage ring.
Foaling report: Amy had this colt during American Idol, but we were able to tape the show so I forgive her. Shwatch is very tall with looooong legs and a beautiful face.
SOLD!Congratulations to Ruth and Bonnie of MI!
Shwatch is a very quiet, amateur friendly all-round good boy who is still a bit of a geek and slow to mature. He is really coming into his own now with a stronger topline and ability to carry himself. He has been given the time he needed to mature, and he will make someone a super riding partner. He has been off-property where he behaved in the trailer and in the strange riding ring like a pro.
