Foal No 2 has landed. An Art Major filly from Montana Melody which makes her a 3/4 sister to For A Reason(actually a 7/8ths sister!)
Thanks Greg (and Mr Bartos)Paul give her a calcium molasses block should do the trick
Tried the block thing and seems to have done trick. Now 12 days over and she going to string me along for as long as possible I reckon.

No worries Paul
Have whoever you want on but don't ever have yourself on
My 2nd foal for the year is a SBSW filly from Localize. It is the first foal for Localize, a Christian Cullen daughter of Sabilize.
I haven't had any success loading pics so I hope you can see her below

What a stunner, such a beautiful filly! Congrats
Three healthy foals so far. A SBSW colt out of Laugh Out Loud . This was a big foal resulting in a difficult vet assisted birth . I would like to breed another mare to SBSW , does he leave big foals ? A Grinfromeartoear colt from Makin Faces and a stunning American Ideal filly from Left A Dream.
On the deck, absolutely cracking colt by American Ideal (Justin), the 5th & the nicest foal the mare's ever had...sharp, snappy and upbeat type, always moving, great on his feet, balanced...then 8 days later a HUGE colt by Sutter Hanover (Ned). Yardstick wise, Ned's rump is up level with my hip. Very tall, long legs, long body, the biggest foal I've ever seen, the biggest foal all of our Vets have ever seen but not heavy boned/built. Met a mate whilst at another mate's wedding over the weekend & he mentioned another Sutter foal that he'd seen up at Brooklyn Lodge was also a very big boy. Horse must leave a lot of them with real size to them. Two to go foaling wise, both American Ideals.
[VVV] G'day Anne. Can't say if he leaves big foals but from the yearlings that I've seen on the US Sales websites...many of them seem to be pretty powerfully built through their shoulders and their rear ends. I think that thickness is coming from Beach Towel. Many of them have Roman noses too...the horse is a little that way...but I reckon you can see Mach Three in them too, I think it's their colour? Anyway, if you have a look at both the Lexington & Harrisburg sites there's quite a bit of video of his yearlings available.Originally Posted by Bonnie
My pick so far is a Brittany Farm bred SBSW colt named Yucatan. He is Hip 100 at Lexington.
From a very good Western Ideal race mare Platinum Hanover who is in turn from the smart filly Panned Out, a full sister to the wicked fast On The Attack.
My boy made $100,000 to Tony Alagna as agent.
At last! 1 year and about 6 hours after last service at 2am this morning out she popped. 2 years in the waiting. By Bettors. All good so far but some decent storms heading our way at the moment so its going to have an 'interesting' initiation.
No name yet. Wanted to wait to see if her half brother could win his M0 tonight and then would have to have been called "EMMO". But they called them off (due to the coming storms I think).
My young 3yo daughters name suggestion = PANCAKE (my daughter definitely threw to her Mum!!). Pic attached when about 5 hours old this morning. Full of beans and running Mum round in circles!
We all very excited (me exhausted) and over the moon!
Cheers
