CURE THE BLUES, 9.3h blue roan colt

Still waiting on a mare who was due the 3rd, then we’re expecting about 40 mares to foal over the next 2 weeks (presuming everyone cooperates).

I was constantly confusing Rosette with Rockette when I was racing them, so it’s only naturally they’d foal on the same night.
HONEYSUCKLE, 8.2h dark bay filly

Second foal and first filly for MSP dam. Rockette will visit Fivel next.

DARK ENERGY, 9.1h grey colt
Ch. Dark Ages x Super Stars - WCh. Double Cross (B)
I was really scared about this mare, as she was originally due January 3rd! Luckily mom and baby are perfectly fine. I thought her foal would be bigger with all the extra baking, but given the sire is 14.3hh maybe this is big. Half to MSW Ch. Galaxy. Super Stars has been sent to Nobly Regal.

BLACKSMITH, 8.2h black colt
Ch. Dark Ages x Ch. Flint - Frankel

HWASEONG, 8.3h dapple grey colt
Knicks Go x Abeja Reina - NCh. Bellagio (S)
In trying to name this colt, I discovered Knicks Go’s name is supposed to be pronounced K-Nicks Go, in reference to the Korean nicks breeding system and I had forgotten Knicks Go is owned by the Korean Racing Authority. Hwaseong is the name of a city in Korea. Abeja Reina will visit Honeydukes for 2028.
CHILLING, 9h dark bay colt
GCh. Fivel x All Snowed In - WCh. All Jazzed Up (S)

We’re currently stuck between a few late foals, and a wave of expected foals in March, so I’ve been waiting for them to accumulate a little before posting.
DARK BLOOM, 8h grey filly
Ch. Dark Ages x Highland Flower (S) - GCh. Highland Laird (S)
Half to MSP Fleur de Montagne. Unfortunately, Highland Flower was retired shortly after giving birth, leaving behind just 6 foals, 2 of whom are fillies. We were really excited to see how she does as a producer over time, as 4 of her half-sisters produced MSW’s. Fingers crossed her foals will come into their own as they get older.
