I just want to say a HUGE thank you to Shanthi for all her hard work keeping this game going. I didn’t know what to do with myself while the game was down. Lol.
Started off the new year with a bang with two foals on the ground. Glad they waited for the new year. XD
RAVNI KOTARI
GCh. Zadar x Lillyofthevalley - ICh. Stressed (S)
8.3h brown colt
Named after the region in which the Croatian city of Zadar is located (according to Wikipedia) and because it sounded like a cool name to me. XD
ROSE ARMOUR
NCh. Ablative Armour x Rose Gloss (G) - Created
8.2h dark bay filly
Assuming this one is in the barn somewhere. I had a stable notification about this little guy’s birth and could name him from a link on his dam’s page, but he’s still marked as unborn and doesn’t show up in my list of weanlings, so not really sure what’s up. For now, I’m taking it as a good omen that a happy, healthy colt is on the way.
LIGHT OF ROMANCE
ICh. Gunningdownromance (S) x GCh. Incandescent - ICh. Candidate (S)
9.0h bay colt
Not sold on the name yet, but have been looking forward to this foal. First baby for this MSW/MSP/almost-millionaire mare. Had to fight a bit for her at auction two years ago, but I’m optimistic that she will earn her price tag in the long run, if she produces near as well as her pedigree and race record suggest.
WAR VICTOR
NCh. Worthy Victor (G) x Ch. War Penny - NCh. Black Warrior
9.1h black colt
First foal for this SW/MSP mare. Not my highest winning broodmare, but she’s a personal favorite. Glad she was able to deliver a healthy foal without complication.
Better late than never, as the saying goes. This boy was due on the 1st but decided to be fashionably late. Hoping that isn’t gonna set a trend. Lol.
AMBER TEMPLE
NCh. Daredevil Dan (S) x Ered Luin - ICh. Blue Smoke
9.1h bay colt
First D&D inspired name of the year. Wasn’t really coming up with anything good, so chose to name this colt after the dungeon my group and I will be attempting to survive in our game tonight. Lol.
I got a colt for my birthday! Lol. XD Considering I was one of the ones who REALLY wanted Talismanic in the game, I think this was quite an appropriate surprise.
RUM TALISMAN
Talismanic x Bottle Of Rum - ICh. Candidate (S)
8.0h dark bay colt
Thank you! I hope so as well. I understand everyone’s excitement over new prospects, but I feel like most of the current RL studs haven’t had a chance to shine yet. And I’d definitely be sad to see Talismanic go. I loved watching him run IRL. Always thought he was so pretty. XD
I think that’s why I was willing to keep this group of RL studs another year. They’re all so nice and mostly unproven! Guess we will find out in February who survived the cull. Fingers crossed we can keep Talismanic’s flashiness. I only have one foal by him (born last year), and would like to send a couple girls to him this year.
After debating what to name this girl, finally decided to give a nod to her grandmother, Executive Session. I will always regret quitting the game during college and losing Executive Session, but I’m forever grateful to have been able to get Limelight back and enjoy all her lovely foals. Looks like Limelight should have plenty of descendants, too, because out of 6 foals, she’s only given birth to 1 colt. Lol.
STOLEN STREAK
NCh. Lucky Streak (S) x Stolen Chance - GCh. Steal Your Heart
8.3h chestnut colt
Finally this foal decided to make his appearance. He’s a tiny little nugget for being 20 days overdue. Lol.
Stolen Chance is listed in our auction starting on Feb. 7.
