High Estate Colt

Bay colt by High Estate out of Luiana Baby foaled 3/28/07 in KY. He looks a bit over at the knee, but it is just the way he is standing. He is approx. 3 weeks old in the photo. I like his double star.

Looks like he had some "touch and go" moments earlier, with that IV site in his neck. Glad to see he's resolved any problems.

What a nice family your mare is from! I hope the dam and second dam will add some stakes performers to bring the class a little closer in descent. I'm sure you noticed that Hard Spun also comes from this female line. Luiana is his third dam just as with your colt.

Is High Estate still in Texas?

Yes. I have him in Texas. This is his first crop outside the UK. I am very excited, but I only had time to breed 8 mares to him when he arrived and only 6 produced foals. This year I have put 19 of my mares to him. Thanks for the nice comments about the foal. That mare is in KY and has been bred to Morluc.

What a lovely colt! He looks great and I didn't think he looked over at the knee - I thought it was how he was standing

He's a "keeper".
