St. Paddy's day baby!

Postby Bohemia » Wed Mar 18, 2009 6:07 am

Last night at 8:30 my mare Malibu Miss (by Malibu Moon) had a chestnut colt by Chips are Down (Distorted Humor). Baby and mom are doing fine, he has a white star - will post pics when I get them. First crop for the sire, a former Baffert trainee.

Yes, it was funny, there were six people looking at him and talking outside the stall and he just laid down and went to sleep.

It is a Canon Powershot SD790 IS ... very easy to use and not terribly expensive.
