Baby Casper Meets Highboy

Baby Casper met Highboy in the arena this weekend.  It was so fun to see the cute small fluffy baby frolicking around with the gigantic sleek Thoroughbred!

At one point while Highboy was taking a lap on his own, Casper came over to the gate and put forth a desperate plea to be let out of the arena.  It's an oft heard comment from horses who have just met Highboy:  "Get me OUT of here, this guy is crazy!"  We couldn't help but feel like it was Casper's just desserts, though.  He had spent the last few months in a pasture with his dam and another mare, and he was terrorizing them regularly trying to get them to play.  It was really something to see Casper out-played by another horse!  To put it into human terms, we decided that Uncle Fason is the uncle who wears shorts with striped socks and sandals, but Highboy is the uncle who gives you a beer when you're only fourteen.
