Gone Fishin-Aidensfield colt

Postby Maureen » Fri May 09, 2008 7:24 pm

Around two this afternoon, Aidensfield (Apalachee-Knightly Donna) delivered a nice big colourful colt by Gone Fishin after a rather stessfull foaling. 'Andy' presented himself upside down, with his head caught back, and the cord wrapped around his leg, and the mare wouldn't lay down. :shock:

Thanks to the great team of Jacquie from Hillside Thoroughbreds and Nicki the stallion owner, he was delivered safely and alive! Excellent work ladies! I owe you a night out!

We think he is liver chestnut, and boy does he have a lot of white! He's a cutie.
