Does he have any horses showing in hand yet? or competeing in performance....I don't know when his stud career began, but would like to see pix if there are any of the above.

I'll be sure to report once our Cunningham x Alla 'Czar is on the ground in April. We're really looking forward to this colt.

I have 2 Cunningham offspring, full brothers, a six year old and a yearling out of my Tb mare by John Alden. Please forgive the unfinished state of my someday website, but I have managed to get a few of my numerous pictures up. The six year old, Cuddles, is pictured as a 2 year old on the homepage, and the yearling, Nemo, has his own page because I was thrilled with some of the shots I got of him playing and couldn't wait to put them up. I have much better photos of Cuddles, who was 6th on the line as a 2 year old at Devon and 5th at Upperville, in the non-TB colt classes, but haven't put them up yet. Cuddles was champion Hopeful hunter last winter at his only A show (mid-winter Raleigh), after which we had to take a long break due to veterinary bills attached to Nemo-- that's another reason I was so thrilled with the photos of Nemo playing. Please look and tell me you'd never guess he was born in a hospital because his mom had placentitis, then battled contracted tendons, a serious foot puncture wound, and 8 months of ulcers (up to grade 3)!!

Oh, yes-- my profile photo shows me on Cuddles at 3. If you want to see more, check my website in another couple weeks, email me, whatever. I love showing off these babies.

If you search these forums (esp. the breeders') you'll find that I've been a Cunningham fan since he was all of 4 years old and bred to him ASAP. What a thrill it's been to watch that gorgeous guy's career while raising 2 of his sons -- beyond my wildest dreams. I hope all of you enjoy your Cunningham babies as I have mine!

Here's the in-progress website: http://www.tunnelsendfarm.com/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.HomePage

I promise to get more photos up soon.

Here's some new pics of mine. She's 6 now. :eek: And, just the bestest horse ever. Out of a Landgraf mare. Will go to her first show in a few weeks. :yes:

We plan to do Hunters (http://good-times.webshots.com/photo/2078820420102727866qAYtKc) and Jumpers (http://good-times.webshots.com/photo/2313144210102727866zEehGq). And just hang out (http://good-times.webshots.com/photo/2706730820102727866pKxbQp)... :cool:

Lovely mare Sebastien.

We are expecting a Cunningham foal out of our wonderful Castle Cove mare who was a real hunter superstar herself. Can't wait!

Thanks, arizonard. fish's geldings are just as nice, hopefully she'll have more photos for us soon.

You will LOVE your foal. From what I have seen Cunningham is throwing VERY consistent foals -- good jump, movement and temperament.

Thanks Seb and 3Dogs. I did put a couple photos on my home page of Cuddles in the hunter ring: http://www.tunnelsendfarm.com/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.HomePage

I'm afraid I'm slow as people come at such things-- it took me years to get the site up at all, and now have all those pages to put pictures of barns, arena, etc., etc., on-- kind of afraid that if I start posting pictures, I'll become addicted and never find time to ride again!

Bridgette does indeed look great. I'm looking forward to hearing about her first show. Have fun!
