[color=red]JUST CAN’T WAIT arrived on December 22. She is a gorgeous dark grey filly standing at 8.0h. She is by WCh. I’M YOUR ANGEL (S) and out of Ch. HIGHLAND FERN (S). All of her dam’s foals have been winners with one MSW, one SW and two SP. I’ll probably sell this one as don’t have the patience to wait, plus I own her SW half-sister. Highland Fern will see Dr. Evil next year.

Not sure what is going on with my broodmares, but I’ve got 93 with 90 left to foal but my stable overview says only 87 left. I’ll run off that for now and we’ll see!
Thanks. I’m dreading the cost of this year’s breeding season… Just started sending some through. 106 mares (possibly more) is going to murder the finances.
[color=red]VOLCANIC is a black filly standing at 9.1h. She is by Ring of Fire and out of A Pharaoh’s Victory. Her dam was a multiple stakes winner up to Grade One level and finished her career with a Grand Champion title. This is her first foal and she is going back to Ring of Fire this year.
[color=blue]GOD OF WAR is a light bay colt standing at 9.0h. He is by Prince of Wonder and out of Andarta. In Celtic polytheism, Andarta was a warrior goddess worshipped in southern Gaul, hence the name. His dam is very well bred and was multiple stakes placed up to Grade One level finishing her career with a Champion title. She’s off to TakeMeToHollywood this season.

[color=red]LANVIN arrived on January 5 and is a chestnut filly standing at 9.2h. She’s very well bred being by Strider and out of Chloe. Chloe was fantastic runner who really excelled in her 3YO season winning six stakes, four at Grade One level. She finished titled as a Grand Champion. This is her first foal. I’ve named this filly after one of my favorite French fashion labels (Chloe is another French brand). This one is a keeper!
[color=blue]MIDNIGHT RAIDER arrived on January 5 and is a bay colt also standing tall at 10.2h. He is by Strike It Rich and out of Midnight Bandit. His dam was a decent runner being stakes placed up to Grade One level. This is her first foal.

[color=blue]FLOTA DE INDIAS is a dark bay colt standing at 9.0h. He is by Strike It Rich and out of Flute. Flute was lightly raced, but managed a couple of stakes placings up to Grade One level. This is her third foal, her first races this year. I’m not sure I love his name, but he was named after the Spanish treasure fleets (or West Indies Fleet from Spanish Flota de Indias) which sailed from the Spanish Empire in the Americas to Spain. Also, a flute is a Dutch type of sailing vessel. So Strike It Rich and Flute kind of produced this.
