Diamond Dale's 2018 Foal Crop

Well, wouldn’t know that I just made it-- one girl decided that she had held out long enough and there was a darling baby in my stable when I went to feed in the morning.

Point and Shoot is a newer mare that I’ve added to my band and was a jumper when she was on the track, having placed in the Hilltop stakes (ungraded) when she was 3 yrs old.  Her current foal is the second foal for Diamond Dale.

So here is her baby boy:

[color=blue]CREATIVE MODE
chestnut colt, 9.1hh, with a RH ermine and LH sock.
By: One Lucky Soul
Out of: Point and Shoot (Point Given)
Born January 1st

Figured I wanted to go with a photography related name for this boy, referring to a mode you would find on a digital camera.

Point and Shoot isn’t booked yet as I haven’t figured out what boy she will visit.  Will update when I decide that, lol.

5 Foals Expected for 2018//1 Colt//0 Fillies//0 Stillborn

Congratulations on the new arrival.

So it’s been a while but have some new little faces to introduce-- three exactly.  So here’s the roll call, starting with the oldest of the three.

[color=red]- BLESSED B -
black filly, 10.3hh, LH/RH/LF sock
Born Jan 9
Sire: V is for Victory
Dam: Wiccan Moon (Tiznow)

Took me a long while to come with the name for this girl but I like it-- googled Wiccan terms and this one seemed to fit, as well as go with the theme of V is for Victory.  We shall see what this little one can do.  Mom Wiccan probably won’t be bred this year, along with all my mares as I am too busy this year to really focus on research of lines.

[color=blue]-ALWAYS COOL-
brown colt, 9.1hh, LF/LH Ermine, RH sock
Born Feb 3
Sire: Black Light II
Dam: Novel Advantage (created)

I like the mare and actually owned her at one point but sadly, needed money, so had to part with her.  When the chance came up to lease her, I did it and got this boy out of the deal.  Excited to see what he will do :slight_smile:

[color=blue]- LUCKY IN RED -
Red chestnut colt, Star
Born March 20
Sire: One Lucky Soul
Dam: Lady in Red (Crossroads)

Lady is a sentimental favourite of mine.  She is the dam of the first horse I ever owned in the game, so I get excited when she has a baby.  Being silver rated helps too lol :wink:.  Lucky will be kept to race, while the other foals will be sold at auction

So, that’s the babies for now.

5 Foals Expected for 2018//3 Colt//1 Filly//0 Stillborn

Love the names, especially Blessed B…and that she’s by my boy is just a bonus! Best of luck with them.

And my final baby is here and what a handsome boy he is!!!

[color=blue]GALAXY’S TAURUS
April 30, 2018
Location Bred: ON, CAN
Gender: Colt
Status: Weanling
Color: Dark grey
Markings: Star, stripe, RF Sock, RH Sock, LH Stocking
Height: 9.2h
Sire: Galaxy’s Zodiac
Dam: Cobblestones (Created)

His mom was a good steeplechaser. so it will be interesting to see where he goes from here.  He’s one of my keepers becuase I have a soft spot for a dark grey. 

Dark greys are gorgeous :slight_smile:

Nice colt!
