Hard Spun & Street Boss Colts *new pics*

Postby LB » Tue Mar 02, 2010 1:04 pm

Our mare, Tricky Bird, foaled a bay colt by Street Boss last night. He's big and strong and healthy, and we couldn't be happier with him. His half-brother Turf Melody is expected to run in the G3 Gotham S. on Saturday at AQU. I should be able to get pictures tomorrow when he goes outside for the first time. :)

Meanwhile, I have new pictures of our Hard Spun colt o/o Shriek (who is a half-sister to the new colt above.)

We always get fillies; we're thrilled with our two new boys. :)

Congratulations on the new addition!

The Hard Spun colt is looking fabulous. All the best to Turf Melody this Saturday - that sure would be a nice update to Mom's page. ;)

Thanks so much!

Jessi P, it would make a wonderful update. The 3yo is already a SW but I'd love it if he wanted to add some graded blacktype. :)

Congratulations! Great way to start the year off with the "boys". Perhaps you'll have all boys this year :D

I love the Hard Spun colt. He's quite a looker.

New pictures from yesterday. I'm really pleased with both colts. Turf Melody (half to the Street Boss and half to the dam of the Hard Spun) ran 4th in the Gotham. So a good effort but no new blacktype.
