This are the pictures I got sent by Galaxy's owner. Apparently they are quite old, from when he was about 8, he is now 10.
I'm not quite sure how high that jump is, but I know he can jump 4ft+! He is a very pretty boy, and gets quite dark in the winter. I like dark horses. :D

I don't think you can really see the Hanoverian in him, but he has a very dignified sports horse look about him. :D
Awww...he looks lovely!!! I will look for photos of philly to show you! I think she had the hanoverian look about her!
One day, I will get a pure Hanoverian, with that gorgeous Havoverian stance.
SI_Tragedy,
Beautiful Horse!!
I've ridden off & on thoughout childhood & occassionaly as an adult...Now I volunteer with a group that conducts hippotherapy! Some of the kids are very stunted developmentally & sometimes seem terrified, but to see the excitement in their eyes makes it all worth the effort that I put into it.
I have a purebred Crabbet Arab, bought her at 4 days, took her home at 6 months, backed her myself and she's now 10. The idea was for me to do endurance, and though sadly she's up for it, I didnt take into account that I wasnt...She gets ridden regularly, but its not the same somehow... I also have a 29 year old rescue Arab/new forest, and Rain and Reiyuu keep their two horses on my land too... So I have 4 in all..I hate winter when they all come in
yeah mucking out is a nightmare in the winter...my last 2 stayed indoors all year round but winter still seemed worse!
At the yard i worked at at one point we had 22 stabled horses and had me and one other girl to do the stable work-it was exhausting! I never even got paid to do it!!! The things we do when we are 12 eh?!
yeah, I bet you were fit though...Quote:

And this is Raf, 17hh Throughbred x at his first x-country that i took him to. He was a star and jumped everything first time!
You're right, Philly does have that Hanoverian look.
But I'm in love with Raf!
I love greys, but have never had the pleasure to own one!
He is gorgeous.
What was he crossed with? Looks a bit warmblood-ish to me.
