IRon Spur Stables 2015 foaling season concludes

Going crazy waiting for last 2 babies, cutting it close to the cutoff , one mare is 2 weeks late, the other due on my daughters b-day the 29th.

Our next to the last foal of the season was born Today finally , I did notice something odd the filly is black when her parents are bays, and grandparents are bay/chestnuts. I love black horses ,but was surprised and pleased with this throwback/recessive color!  ;D

Her sire has just 2 crops on the ground but her grandparents are both multi stakes winning producers and a great grand dam gold reine de course.
Her dam was a created horse I bought at auction and reached Ch status as a 2 yo , but then decided she didn’t want to run anymore .This is her third foal the first is unplaced so far.

Well Iron Spur Stables foaling season is finished , with a huge healthy filly born this morning. We lost my starter horse (she will be missed) and 2 colts this year. And with this final foal the fillies beat the colts by 1.  :slight_smile:

Well with Her sire line being one of my faves, most of his info has been spoken of under other foals here.
Her dam was a $5k bargain , lightly raced on both turf and dirt seemed to be a mudder. She lost her first foal (2013) so her first one will race next yr, this foal should be fun to figure out.
I hope to send her to Foolhardy ,waiting on approval for his last date now, otherwise she will visit my boy Slip in the Mud.
