I’ve been obsessively checking my mares every day since the start of December (and praying that they’d hold on till January 1st, lol), and logged in this morning to discover Playskool had foaled early. Not by much, but a little bit. This was her first foal, we honestly expected her to be late instead, guess she felt she’d held on long enough.

8.2 hh dark bay colt, star, stripe, RH coronet http://www.finalfurlong.org/viewhorse.php?horse=24462
By ICh. Alley Cat (B) (Alydar (S) x Ch. Highland Dreamer §)
Out of Playskool (Unbridled (B) x Frolicking (B))
I haven’t decided on a name yet, hopefully something will come to me soon, I hate leaving them unnamed for long. Playskool will be going to visit Black Light II for the 2018 season.
1 colt, 0 fillies, 15 (one from redeemed points) still due.
Came on tonight to discover another foal! This one’s about 4 days early, so maybe all of my mares will take the hint that on time or slightly early is the way to go this year. <.< I can dream right? XD

8.3hh black RF stocking, RH stocking, LH sock
By ICh. Take Me Away (B) (Cigar (G) x Take Account §)
Out of Moon Laird (GCh. Highland Laird (S) x Blue Moon (B))
I haven’t decided for sure yet, but she’s being tentatively called Taken to the Moon.
Moon Laird will probably be put up for lease this season, though I’m not positive on that yet.
1 colt, 1 filly, 13 still due (1 from redeemed points), next due on 1/29.
I’ve tentatively named the first one Back Alley Gambler (of course, autocorrect changed it to Gambles and I haven’t changed it back yet).
Thanks Shanti! I’m excited about that one! I have another Cigar granddaughter who did really well for me, made it to GCh before she started slacking, so I’m hoping that that cross will give me another like Strike Out.
I thought these two would keep their legs crossed forever. Penny Lane and Willya B Mine have both finally given birth. I have tos tart getting ready for work, but when I get home, I’ll post in a bit more detail.
Completely forgot to come back and post about my newest babies until I wound up with another one. Lol. And apparently, in looking at my new foals, Alley Cat was a popular stud for me last year. XD 4 out of 5 foals are by Alley Cat.
Playskool has been bred to Black Light II and is due 2/1. Willya B Mine has been bred to Slip In The Mud and is due 1/31. Almost Daybreak foaled a lot earlier than she was supposed to, so now I’m gonna take a bit of time to plan out who to breed her to.
3 colts, 2 fillies, 0 stillborn, no mares lost, 10 foals still due. Next due on 3/7.
