It has been a while since we've had a pony move up a bracket here on the farm. This month Smarty earned his last point in Beginner! We've loved this heavily line-bred on The Highwayman colt from the day he was born. He'll be joining his half-sister Gloria in Novice next month. It will be interesting to see how the siblings place, she hasn't had any competition in a while. It will also be interesting to see who is next to move up from beginner.
