First Vídalín offspring is getting attention
First Vídalín offspring is getting attention
It´s always exciting when young horses show their potential at early age and by doing that making owners and fans around happy. One of those youngsters who proved to everybody close by what she was made of from day one is Hnota frá Stóra-Vatnsskarđi a 2-year old mare out of Vídalín frá Hamrahóli and Víđja frá Stóra-Vatnsskarđi. Hnota is very beautiful with elegant confirmation. She shows all gaits in great tempi and with lots of suspension and it will be quite interesting to keep an eye on her in the near future. A video of her can be seen here.
