He is getting fairly easy to catch, it's a bonus that he isn't shy like Pistol was, I think it took me a month before I could walk up to Pistol and catch him.
I am working on touching his legs and lifting all 4 feet; every day a little more progress. He's a very feely colt as you can see in the next video:
The lightest touch is enough for him. I took him and mama Belle out on grass and he had to step over a rubber mat that I have covering electrical cords, as soon as he put one foot on it he stopped with a "what the heck!" look on his face and inspected the mat carefully then leaped over it. Not a big leap, just enough to get over it, and on the way back stopped, glanced at it and leaped it again. He is going to be fun to train!

Gosh, he reminds me of Tumbleweed in his movements and mannerisms. Tweed is extremely feely, too. I love Little Eli videos.
Can't wait to meet this little guy. He is going to be a special one, that's for sure.
What a sharp looking guy! It's fun to see you working with the babies. You are so good at it.
He is awfully cute:)
