The minute you leave for work, that's when the foal will arrive.

Hi Tammy :) I have Papa John's pizza on speed dail on my cell phone. I waited over 2 weeks after due date,gave up waiting,rented 3 movies,and pop she sneaked it out and I missed the whole thing :lol: She had a beautiful filly around 3 or so AM this morning. My old TB was screaning his head off sounding the alarm :shock: at around 4 ,went to check on all the excitement and there was the filly standing there. Mon and filly are fine,I got some crome,3 white socks from dad 1 white ankel from mom and a star from dad she's chestnut from mom and dad. Hang in there girl :lol: And let us know :)

Count me in - I say she'll foal on March 31st (my mom's birthday by the way) - at 6:30 am. That way you can watch the Dubai races later in the day (aren't they this Saturday?

Good luck Tammy :)

Go and run a bath, open a bottle of wine, put some bubbles in the tub, get in, relax. That should bring on the foal, the minute you are trapped in the bathtub soaking wet.
