Spot Treatment

2001 15h Appaloosa G

Eventing at Preliminary & CCI*

Ziggy

Ziggy's name cannot cross our lips without giggling... He is the class clown of all of our horses. "Z" lives to entertain, and entertain he does! At just 15h, he is by far the smallest of all of our horses, and without an ounce of TB blood. Yet he moved up to Prelim successfully just four short months after his first horse trial ever, and all at only 5 years of age. He never ceases to amaze me, as I never expected him to be an upper level horse. Yet the size of his heart is only matched by the size of his personality, and he simply will not stop moving up! Ziggy proved to us all that Appaloosas really can do the long format!! In October 2007, he finished his first CCI* in 12th place in the CCI* Open at Hagyards Midsouth Three Day Event... We're so proud of our little spotty pony, as he puts his heart into everything he does... Hooray for Ziggy!

At only six years old, he has already accomplished:
4th Indiana HT at IP
Completed CIC* at Maui Jim with Qualifying Score & Clean XC
8th at Flying Cross HT at P, won the dressage by 6 points!
7th at River Glen HT at P
12th at Midsouth CCI* Long Format
1st at Team CEO HT taking a working student around her first event ever!
1st at Champagne Run MT in his first event ever!
Consistently scores in the top after dressage
All phases in snaffle

This HUGE preliminary table was nothing for the scope of our little spotted one! Here Ziggy flies over a table at Full Gallop HT on his way to a clean XC in 2007.

Here at Midsouth HT in June 2007, Ziggy easily clears a preliminary stadium fence.

Who can ignore a face like this?
