Our year started out with a whirlwind of activity, so I’m still playing catchup and planning out our mare bookings (and have marked our stallions as private until that has been sorted out). Here’s the list of new arrivals to date, though!

January 1st:

[color=red]ALLEYESONME[/color]
NCh. Exit Poll x GCh. Allnighter II - WCh. All Jazzed Up
8.3h grey filly

[color=red]BELLWORTH[/color]
NCh. Bellagio (S) x Ch. Worth A Treasure - GCh. Worth My While (G)
8.3h bay filly

[color=BLUE]SAYONARA[/color]
NCh. Fight The Twilight x Ch. Ciao Bella (S) - ICh. Alley Cat (S)
7.1h bay colt

Honestly…I swapped Ciao Bella’s booking around at the last minute and didn’t pay enough attention. This colt’s sire & dam are half siblings which makes me worry, but since it’s a game, here’s hoping he inherits the best of both worlds. At least the common ancestor is a platinum-ranked mare. Both mom and dad were stakes winners, and 1/2 sister, Adios Amiga, is a stakes winner.

[color=red]THUNDERCLOUD[/color]
NCh. Fight The Twilight x Stormchaser - FFCh. Foolhardy (S)
