Very excited to see our first ever foal arrive today! Technically bred by Final Furlong as mum was purchased in foal at the mixed auction last year but still glad to introduce
[color=blue]Smitten Kitten
Alley Cat x Burnitup
Dark grey colt standing at 9.1hh
Burnitup has had one foal to race so far, 3yo [color=blue]Traviko who’s a winner and multiple placed. She has a booking approved for Spock but I’m not sure if she’s going to make it as she decided to keep her legs crossed for longer than I’d hoped for if not she’ll be rested ready for an earlier covering next year.
1 down, 2 to go
Is this in anyway influenced by the amazing food blog, Smitten Kitchen (smittenkitchen.com/ )? If, so, yay! If not, it’s still a really cute name. =)
No Cat, it’s not but the blog sounds fab. I will certainly check it out - thanks for the link.
Unfortunately Gilded Journey foaled a colt today but it was stillborn She’s a little bewildered but otherwise ok. She’ll now be rested until 2015 and I think we’ll head back to Rumor Has It and try again.
Sorry to hear about your colt.
Our 3rd and final foal has arrived safely, a grey colt who is officially the first Generous Bloodstock homebred
[color=blue]Unnamed
Moonopoly ex Glide For Joy
Not thought of a name for him yet but he’s a half brother to Cat’s Joy, who’s still a maiden but always seems to pick up a bit of prize money. Glide For Joy will be rested and may be sold later in the year.
So all in all we have two colts and one stillborn (also a colt)
