I couldn't be happier with this wonderful mare - she's exactly as Trisha says.

Think back to the days of court during the Baroque period.....   Wed, 10 Jun 2009 02:40:29 GMT Trisha Hughes http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/LusitanoHorse/message/2808 http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/LusitanoHorse/message/2808 Janna,   Humm, I think they were there different years for different judges? Jane would probably remember...   Trisha     [Non-text portions of this Wed, 10 Jun 2009 02:40:29 GMT Trisha Hughes http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/LusitanoHorse/message/2807 http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/LusitanoHorse/message/2807 Janna,   I think one was there when Francisco Besso was the judge and the other when Arsenio judged?  Can't remember, maybe Jane can.   Trisha [Non-text Wed, 10 Jun 2009 02:40:24 GMT Trisha Hughes http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/LusitanoHorse/message/2806 http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/LusitanoHorse/message/2806 I had the full sister to this most cool black stallion, she is bay and fantastic.   Just a year younger.  This great mare is now owned by Carol Finger Wed, 10 Jun 2009 02:40:24 GMT Fernando J. Prato Ferreira http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/LusitanoHorse/message/2805 http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/LusitanoHorse/message/2805 That is fox fur and originally served to accomodate an additional rider (lady) It is called xairel.and became part of the complete Portuguese saddle gear.
