Foalshow

The foalshow of the local Breedingclub took place in Saltvík today.
Of course we signed our foals and 2 foals owned by Mieke (Mímir and Jódís). First we had to catch the mares and walk the lot of them up to Saltvík.  Catching was this time not the biggest problem. We had decided to attach Yndi with a girth to Perla as it was so tiring to drag her up to Saltvík the last time.
Unfortunately Yndi managed to get loose and took a run with all the foals. It was quite a job to get in front of her and the others again and guide them to the stable. Neither the mares nor the foals were happy when we seperated them, but it was necessary as we had to put the foals into boxes for the show.
The foals were showed in groups of 2 or 3, Gisli and Halldór were judges and the owners took care of making the foals run a bit. That didn't work out with all of the foals...
Our foals were showing themselves quite well, Kátína was trotting more than I've ever seen her before and there was a lot of room in her steps. Pjakkur showed really good movements in trott and tölt, but Farsæll was not at his best, he could have used more lively foals in his group.
Jódís, who was in group with Kátína, and Mímir, who has the same father as Jódís, showed themselves really fine, both with fine trott and a lot of room in their steps. In fact, Mímir did so well, that he was chosen into the group of the 6 best male foals and made it from there to the group of best 3.
In the finals Mímir did his best,  managed to beat the other 2 foals and was chosen best stallionfoal in the show. Congratulations Mieke!
