It's not, that's just the name!
Each autumn, Julip hold a parallel photo show with a schedule based on the same classes as their official annual live show down near Oxford, so anyone who can't attend in person needn't be quite so left out, and can still take part in a similar sort of competition. And for the first time, this year that included me.
So I sat and figured out which horses to enter, based on which I'd have been taking to the Live if I'd been able to go, and also took pictures for some of the ridden and performance classes - I've got entries which've been competing live for years but have never actually been photographed before!
After a couple of days, the results were announced, and some of my Julips were among the lucky winners - the prizes arrived this morning, so here they are...
Next there's big bay farm cob Arthur who won first place in the Moulds section, and his multi-layered green rosette for being reserve champion - look at the lovely metallic medallion in the middle!
And on the right, sitting inside his bronze coloured third place rosette from the Pets section, is Pickle the cat.
As always, Julip's prizes are both generous and adorable, and tucked in at the front of the picture, you might've spotted this sweet little white westie :
As it was the horse called King Arthur who won him, I'm going to name the dog Merlin, so they match. I've got horses called Myrddin and Merlin Emrys, but none as just plain Merlin so the name's still free!

Looking very proud in his little blue bow!
Just look at that face!
