Thanks everyone!

I've had 2 other foals out of this mare and this filly is different than her siblings. She's very active and bold and it will be fun to watch her mature. She's about three weeks old in the photos because we couldn't get up there when the Grapevine kept closing.

Now I'm waiting on a Singletary sometime in late March.

I'm waiting on 5, next year twice that.

E Dubai, Hard Currency, Posse, Van Nistlerooy, and a Marquetry. Only one ON sire in the lot. 4 or 5 ON sires for next year!

I'm jealous. I wanted to send a mare to him this year, and he got dismissed by the boss. You can have the name I wanted if you want....'Cuzcuzcuz' She's lovely.

Very pretty! Love the round bales in the background. That always looks so picturesque to me.

Thanks! Actually the name Boldboldbold came to me but I doubt I'll use it. Don't tell louis this but she has a lot of Bold Ruler in her and her Phalaris runs over. :lol:

Boldboldbold would be a tad tough on the race caller, how about Thrice Bold? I like the word "Cubed" for any Whywhywhy offspring, exponentially speaking :lol:
