How has he managed to get loose? (Roughly 500 words maximum)
Well, Danny can be quite unpredictable and explosive. But he's young, so you'd have to some what understand -.. right? Anyways, i don't know, you should just know those quick facts. It was A very dark morning the day Elizabeth took Danny to his first show. They were both quite nervous, as Danny had a knack for getting people off (This includes their Junior-Olympic trainers.) The darkness faded away with the moon as the team jumped of the trailer enthusiastically. Elizabeth took a deep breath as she hugged the big warmblood, who quietly wrapped his he'd around her. But soon, Danny was born and began to stomp and paw. The young girl let go as she dusted off the excited gelding's face and braids. "Today will be good." Elizabeth thought to herself confidently, "I hope.." she soon murmured at the fact the horse was prancing at the side of the trailer. she quickly regrouped the nervous horse and walked him out. Three cars pasted, and Danny was fine. A horse and three Children ran right aside them. Danny didn't care. All of a sudden, a squirrel ran up and off they went. Danny reared up, spun around and took off into the main show grounds. "Loose horse" they screamed. But no one could catch the fiery young animal. In Dannys mind, he was a racehorse. Not long after, a mare being lunged ripped out of her owner hands and started to race Danny! of Course, danny being many hands taller and having a bigger stride soon, But the race wasn't stopped easily. the two crazy horses were coralled into the ring and briefed with treats by their owners. Danny was tired, and was trotting around with a satisfied look on his face when the exhausted owners Ran over to their horses. "bad boy!" elizabeth screamed ragingly. She knew he meant no harm, she should've known what had spooked him, but really?! a squirrel?! "oh danny…" she concluded as she patted the young dutch warmblood, "what am i going to do with you?"

Right, so I'll be overseas this weekend, meaning I can't add the winner's name to the horse on the 7th. I will judge this tomorrow, but this is just a heads up that the name will be added on Monday or Tuesday.

Sorry for my absence! I'm afraid my activity here will be slowing down :c

It was a beautiful day, with puffy white clouds that looked like marshmallows and a radiant sun smiling down at the arena. Cade, a young giant dutch warmblood, was having his first actual show.
First, there's a few things you should know about Cade. One, he's still a bit nervous around people, as he was abused at a young age but was adopted by a kind person. Two, Cade is VERY easily spooked. He's scared of practically everything. Today, however, Cade wanted to be on his best behavior. Little did he know what lived near the arena...
As Sara, a student of his trainer's, tacked up the tall gelding, Cade could see from the corner of his eye that the little girl was shaking in nervousness and fear. She was only about 4''6, and she would've been better off on a pony or a small horse. However,she was reluctant to ride any horse besides Cade.
It wasn't long before Sara and Cade were called into the arena, and Sara was mounted on the enormous horse. Cade started off with a walk. There were annoying flies, a few sudden cries from babies in the audience, murmuring and low voices from the audience and the judges, and other distracting things. However, Cade tried to overcome his fears for Sara's sake. This was his first horse show, as well as Sara's too.He didn't want her to be disappointed. Soon, Sara gave him a small kick, signaling for him to transition into a trot. Nervously, Cade counted down from 5 before trotting. Five...four...three...two...one--
Suddenly, NEIGH! Everything became a big blur, and Cade lost all sense of self-control. Sara's small body went flying in the air, a frightened gelding started rearing and bucking frantically as he galloped around the arena, and the giant gelding's worst enemy sat in a terrified ball near the fence : a cat.
Cats were Cade's weakness. From the "almost-snake-like eyes" (as Cade puts it) to the terrifyingly skinny and furry tails and the sharp, painful claws, Cade was terrified of cats of all sizes and breeds. His reins hung dangerously near his feet as he reared, bucked, and threw his head around in fear. It was crazy, chaotic mess. What if Cade got stuck tangled in his reins? What if he stepped on Sara? What someone got hurt? Like a bolt of lightning, five trainers jumped into the arena. Two blocked the gates, one helped Sara, and two helped calm the panicked horse down.
Ten minutes later, Cade was lead out of the arena, with his head down in shame. After apologizing to Sara, Cade's trainer returned to Cade. Seeing him upset, his trainer smiled. "Aw Cade, everyone make mistakes and I know how scared you were and how you had good intentions for Sara though, because you're a good big boy," she cooed. "Hey look, it's the runaway horse!" Sara yelled before leaving the arena as she flashed a forgiving smile to Cade. Cade's trainer gave the gelding a hug and said, "I'm glad you and Sara aren't hurt...you terrified gentle giant."

To be honest, this was incredibly hard to judge! However, this story made me smile, and even laugh a little. You certainly deserve this horse, loose.strings!

Just a reminder that your name will be added on Monday/Tuesday as I am away at the moment.
