A gorgeous bright chestnut! with two rear socks and a wonderful wide blaze, this boy is already showing the world what he's made of. He is very tall and heavy boned, with a magnificent uphill build and a huge stride, bold, forward and extremely correct, and already has a big bounce! He also has a simply outstanding temperament, he's a joy to work with, highly intelligent and very sweet. We considered him to be an outstanding stallion prospect, but as of June 2008 he is a gelding.

Punchy's half brother Dreams Come True is nearing 17 hands at two years - and we expect this big boy to be just as big and even more beautiful.
