Icon's Image wining Elementary dressage, Manor Grange, Yorks., 3/3/07

Icons Image, DOB: 10/9/97, Height: 16.0hh, Skewbald Tobiano, Bone: 21 cms

Icon's Image is the ONLY graded BWBS skewbald stallion in the UK. He not only passed this grading, but also went on to be 2002 Reserve Champion. The BWBS grading is regarded as the most stringent in this country. The stallions spend a weekend under observation for temperament and manners, and then they are examined for conformation, movement, jumping ability, and attributes that will have a positive impact on future breeding. This is determined both by written pedigree (all stallions forward must have a proven 3 generation pedigree) and the horse's own qualities.

Icons Image is therefore unique in this country, and mare owners can be assured of the best quality foals, with a known pedigree, and all eligible for registration in the prestigious BWBS studbook. This means a non-coloured foal would be a valuable and well-regarded prospect.

Icons Image is also graded with the two coloured societies: BSPA and CHAPS.

Icon's Image is equally talented at dressage and jumping, as one would expect from his breeding. He is a young athletic horse with all the attributes for modern sport horse breeding.

From limited outings, he is now preparing for Elementary dressage. This year he will begin Show jumping.

His temperament is exceptional. He lives full time with his mares and foals, handled by everyone, and because of Charles’ interest in natural Horsemanship is ridden at all paces without saddle and bridle. He is gentle and polite with visiting mares.
