Has anybody seen a RNR Heaven foal that is small ? So far all the foals I have seen are very impressive, leggy types.

We have a very nice filly by him - and yes very leggy! This picture was taken when she was a day old (sorry for the bad quality).
Gee Trent there is some serious bling on that baby!!
Someone else's question made me think of this one. I'm looking for some show names for horses not just barn names. something classy and it can be male or female. thanks =)

Contrary to the early charge from some quarters that size-wise he would leave them in his own image, from what I've seen I wouldn't be at all surprised if they often go the other way completely & he leaves many in the style of Big Jim, Always A Virgin etc. To a fair degree that is also a function of Breeders also intentionally sending him their bigger mares to cover, so in that respect it's all but a lock that they'll overall end up bigger than him, but nevertheless...his foals appear to have quietened the early knockers. Whenever I think of that horse I think of his powerhouse LBJ win, back to back 1:49's on a half. That's wicked.
Hi Stuart, I have a Rock n Roll heaven filly from my Bettors Delight mare and she is a tall girl. I can see a huge resemblance between her sire and the filly, but she is going be be quite tall and as J.Varcoe mentioned, he appears to be throwing from his fathers side off things. It's funny how breeders keep bagging the smallish stallion, Courage under Fire, Bettor's Delight and Rock n Roll Heaven, who's only a fraction taller than Bettors.Quote:
