AHayesHorses · Nov 5, 2019 2:19 AM

So i have wanted to host a contest for a while but couldn't think of what to do. The other day i was describing my real life dream horses to my best friend and thought that it would make for a great little contest.

Contest ends on Saturday, November 16th at 11:59pm (Game Time)

So here is how it works:
You will guess what you think my REAL LIFE dream horses are (yes, i have two of them lol i couldn't choose just one)! Then, you will tell me what your real life dream horse is! I will have hints for both of mine to make it a little easier since y'all can't read my mind :))
Points: You get one point for each characteristic of my dream horse you get correct and you get extra points if an aspect of your dream horse matches my own! If you'd like an example i am happy to add one!

Here is the form:
