Thanks! My BF and I were totally suprised that he won!
History...hmm..... We claimed him and found out he didn't tie. Spent a week teaching him. He's a dopey, uncoordinated goofball. We call him "Willy" which is short for "Willard" after the charactor on Footloose that learns to dance. Same personality. You just want to kill him sometimes though. But have to remember it's not his fault that he acts like he does, he was never taught anything abuot manners or such.

Well he might not know how to tie and his manners sound like they could be improved, but he sure knows how to run ;D Congratulations and I'm sure you'll have him acting like a gentleman soon.

Actually, his name is Strode's Baba...lol
He seems to have the talent to run. He just needs to learn where to put his feet. Poor guy is about 5 inches shorter at the withers than his butt. He's super close in front. I don't like riding him because he's as clumsy as all get out. When you watch the head on shot of the stretch run,. his legs are going everywhere. We just couldn't believe he won!
