Stillwater's 2017 Foals

Colts are almost caught up, shockingly.

[color=blue]Nakhiel
ICh. Gunningdownromance (S) x Fortuna Major (S) - Planet Hollywood (S)
8.1h blue roan colt

Named for the planetary intelligence (whatever that is) of the Fortuna Major in geomancy.

Fourth foal, and fourth colt, from this mare. His oldest brother (4yo by Jazz It Up) is a stakes winner.

Nice colt.

Glad to see this colt, given his sire’s recent retirement.

[color=blue]Single Malt
NCh. Slew O’Scots (S) x GCh. Delightfully Black - The Black (G)
9.1h dark bay colt

First foal from this MSW mare

We seem cursed with Holy Bull this year. :frowning:

This morning we discovered a beautiful filly with first-time mother Darkest Secret (MSW daughter of Secretariat). Unfortunately, she had breathing problems and we lost her. :frowning:

We can’t send Darkest Secret back for another try as Holy Bull is retired, but she’ll get a few weeks off and visit Ghostzapper.

Ouch. What a bummer. Sorry to hear that.

Two healthy babies, thank goodness.

[color=red]Malayensis
FFCh. Foolhardy § x ICh. Blackbird (S) - The Black (G)
10h black filly

Glad to see this filly, she’s only the second filly from this mare (her other 5 foals are boys).

Named after the latin name for the black eagle

Half-sister to MSW Millennium Falcon and SP Reafan

[color=blue]Rainbow Quartz
WCh. Crystal Rainbow (S) x Nugget (B) - Strike the Gold (B)
8.2h chestnut colt

Not sure I’m sold on the name, but the Google images are pretty at least

Half-brother to SW Canaryinacoalmine and SP Blood Diamond

[color=red]38 Fillies
[color=blue]34 Colts
3 stillborn
1 mare death

mmmm I love Malt, a pedigree I like too. Love the filly Malayensis as well

Thanks :slight_smile:

Bittersweet end to our foaling season.

[color=blue]Con Dar
ICh. Candidate (G) x GCh. Spell Breaker (B) - NCh. Highland Wizard (S)
9.3h black colt

Spell Breaker was over two weeks past her due date, and the stress of foaling was too much for her. She haemorrhaged a few hours after this guy was born and we couldn’t save her. We got this boy, thankfully the picture of health, and his big sister (by What’s Your Point), at least. We also own her half-sister, SP Arizona Dream (by High Chances).

Named after the self-destructive spell from the Sword of Truth series

Second colt, and 5th foal from this MSW mare. Half-brother Ch. Crystal Wizard is stakes placed.

[color=red]38 Fillies
[color=blue]35 Colts
3 stillborn
2 mare deaths

Losing such a phenomenal mare must be hard, especially when she only had five foals before her passing. I’m glad you managed to acquire a few foals by her before her passing. Con Dar is a fantastic and fitting name, and with a sire like Candidate, I hope he does his dam proud!

Thanks! We paid $500k for the mare in 2015, so I’m hoping the two babies we have from her are worth it. :wink:

Ouch. What a loss. Glad Arizona can (hopefully) fill the void.

Good luck with the colt.
