Sorry for your loss. Glad the others arrived safely.
Thanks everyone! We had another beautiful blue roan colt arrive this morning at the stable and I swear my mind travels to odd places sometimes for names…
[color=blue]Blue Crown
ICh. Chivalry (B) x Knight’s Princess (B)
8.3h blue roan colt
Born: April 1, 2016
I thought at first Blue Ivy if this foal was a filly but Blue Crown it will be. Knight’s Princess was bred to All Jazzed Up for her 2017 foal.
37 foals so far in 2016, 26 foals left ([color=red]21 fillies, [color=blue]14 colts), [color=orange]2 foals deceased
Love it!

[color=red]Eris Discordia
WCh. As You Wish (B) x GCh. Rhiannon (S)
9.3h black filly
Born: April 2, 2016
A combination of the Greek and Latin names for the goddess of strife and and discord and I couldn’t resist not using it once I found it. Lovely set of bloodlines on this filly (Highland Sorceress, Man O’War, Secretariat, Cross Roads). Rhiannon was bred to Foolhardy for her 2017 foal.
[color=blue]Sir Percivale
WCh. Crystal Rainbow (S) x GCh. Ladylove (G)
9.2h bay colt
Born: April 2, 2016
Also had Monty Python and the knights of the round table in my head last night and this colt’s name was another result. 1/2 sibling to MSW NCh. Fingerprints and GCh. While It Lasts and Ladylove was bred to Gotta Go for her 2017 foal.

ICh. What’s Your Point (S) x NCh. Crucible (S)

LOVE the names. And bloodlines. Drool.
Very nice bunch of foals
I love the names Luxor, Windtalker, and Light the Day!
In other news, I LOVE the names Luxor and Windtalker, and I would kill to have a pedigree like Risk It All’s in my barn! I’m jealous.
Ooooo time to raid Lindsey’s barn! Awesome babies and names! I watched it, I love that show And I have all the books too! I’ll have to start taking names of the casinos here for Bellagio foals. Lol
Thanks for the correction, Alyssa! It’s just such a great name! The colt has been re-named to Sir Percivale instead.
Here’s hoping he lives up to the legend - I think the second name has a better ring to it, anyway, personally.
Quite a few new babies in the barn since the last post. I’ve been waiting since the start of the month for Highland Grace’s foal and she finally foaled today curing the lump in my throat
