Good luck, Blazing Colors! I hope she caught. :)

Our Tiznow filly was born yesterday. I'm hoping to get some pix later, I'll post one if you're interested.

Yes, please do... I would love to see her! It would be a bit of a tease since my mare has not even been confirmed infoal yet. But a welcomed tease ;)

Our usual plan for all our foals is to offer them for sale, set what we think are reasonable reserves, and then race the ones that don't sell. So most likely she'll be offered for sale as a yearling.

We have this filly's 2YO half-sister by Roman Ruler in training, and things are looking good so far. The mare also has a Lemon Drop Kid yearling that I really like--your kind of filly Blazing Colours, she's chestnut with lots of bling. :wink: So I'd be delighted to have another one from the family to race.

Andddddd...... Officer Cherrie was CONFIRMED IN FOAL this morning. YAYYYYYY!!! Where is the cheering icon. :D :D :D :D .

She is doing very well and I am told is being a good mare and quite sweet. So another 45 days or so until we have her shipped home.

Way to go Tiznow!!! Good boy. If I lived closer I would take him a big bag of apples and carrots for a job well done :wink:

Yeehah! Nice gesture re Tiznow, but I don't think he finds his job TOO taxing . . . :wink:

Congratulations on your good news and best of luck with the next ten and a half months!

Our Tiznow filly is growing up very nicely. I'd love to have another one. :)

I'm sharing your joy, BlazingColors. We just found out that the first mare we bred this year is in foal to Hard Spun. :D

Laurierace, here's hoping that you get some good news soon too.

What a pretty baby. I love Tiznow.

Your mare looks like she was a runner, LB. What's her name?
