Sorry!

J. Alfred Prufrock FFCh. I’m No Fool x Lone Star
9.0hh Bay Colt

Like many people, Prufrock is my favorite Eliot poem. Unfortunately, my favorite line:

"I have heard the mermaids singing, each to each.                         

I do not think they will sing to me."

is more than the character limit. This breaks with the “Lonely” name theme I’ve been going with with this mare, but Prufrock’s loneliness ties it in with the theme.  This colt is only the 2nd by this mare. He is 1/2 to MSW Lonely River, Lonely Victor and SW Lonely Ness.

102

All’s fair in the naming war!  :slight_smile:

103

Filly. =)

Lemuria Empire Maker x Fleeting Beauty
9.1hh Dark Gray Filly

Out of a RDC mare that likes to give us fillies. She’s 1/2 to GCh. Striking Beauty, Ch. Saturnalia, NCh. Forgotten Road, and Ch. Fleeting Lady. Fleeting Beauty has been bred to Demand the Best. Lemuria’s the name of a mythical lost civilization along the lines of Atlantis.

104

Lovely filly :slight_smile:

105

Lovely girl. :slight_smile:

106

Two colts.

Something’s Wrong Demand the Best x Ch. Somethininthewater
9.0hh Colt

1/2 to Something Borrowed, who should start this year. Granddam is our starter pony. Somethininthewater has been bred to Long Live the King.

Reanimated Long Live the King x WCh. Black Magick
10.0hh Dark Gray Colt
1/2 to MSW Golden Aura and SP Well of Magick. Black Magick has been bred to Demand the Best.

107

Love Reanimated’s name. :slight_smile: Good luck with him!

108

Reanimated is lovely! I’m a sucker for greys.

109

Filly. Big one too.

Left at the Altar High on Love x Bridezilla
9.3hh Flea-Bitten Filly

First foal of lightly-raced, SW’ing dam. Bridezilla has been bred to HC.

110

Cute name!

111

If Left at the Altar happens to wander off, I’m not responsible for the trail of carrots. Just saying.

112

Lol

113

Catching up on babies.

1/2 to GCh. Reprise. Dam is 1/2 to WCh. King David.

Unapologetic FFCh. Foolhardy § x Unnamed
9.1hh Bay Colt born May 5th

Dam is 1/2 to FFCh. High Chances.

Scottish Silver NCh. Slew o’ Scots (S) x Hidden Silver

Cacophony ICh. V is for Victory (B) x Hollarbackgirl
9.2hh Chestnut Filly born May 9th

114

I think Lodestone, Cacophony (awesome word), and Handsome Devil are my favorite from the list. Congrats!

115

Great names!

116

One more today.

Mulligatawny FFCh. High Chances (G) x NCh. Soupy
8.2hh Mahagony Bay Colt

I’ve got high hopes for this pony, though he is slightly linebred to Second Chances (3 x 5) since Soupy’s sire is I’m Your Angel. The HC x Cherry Flavored cross has already responsible for NCh. Black Cherry (stud qualified), so I’m really excited about this guy.

117

Cute! I experimented this yr with a couple of line breedings will see what we get next spring :slight_smile:

118

Lovely babies, and love the names. :slight_smile: I hope Lodestone and Handsome Devil do well.

119

Sad day today. We lost a mare.

Misfortune ICh. Almost Precious x Dangerous Tigeress (S)
10.0hh Dark Gray Filly

Unfortunately, Misfortune is the last foal of her stakes-producing dam and only the 2nd Cricket. She’s 1/2 to SW Ch. Liminality and the last of 5 foals.

We had another healthy birth earlier this month. Not sold on the name.

Tijuana Tryst of Fate x Ch. Baja Baby
8.3hh Black Filly

Dam is 1/2 to High on Love, sire of Drum Major, and NCh. Go Go Dancer.

120

Sorry about your mare. :frowning: Lovely filly, though.

I like Tijuana, it fits both the parents. :slight_smile:
