    Better Kevin. I see you tried Tv mode - good on you! Just a few blown bits on the horse on the right, but generally pretty good. Next time bump the shutter speed up to 500 or more, even to 1000 and see how much better it will be. If the ISO jumps a bit it won't matter. I just thought as well, have a look at your histogram and make sure the right side is not showing any highlights - if it does, then the detail in that brighter part of the image is lost. Here is a really good explanation of histograms HERE.
    I hope this information helps a bit, I'm loving the pony images. Cheers.

    One suggestion Kevin. Try to include all of the animals body in your composition, unless you are aiming for a pure portrait. There are of course exceptions to this.

    I do look at a couple of other forums, but I'm not a member because of that very reason. When I look at your images I see two things that could be improved, but if you are happy with your images I am not going to say that you must change the way you do things. With posting your images, it's also a way to see how you are progressing. People here are friendly and want to help with passing on their experience.
