Thank you, after 30 years of doing pedigree research and picking stallions for other owners ( and sucessfully too ) I thought it was about time I did it for myself and partner. I like what I see, she's to be sold next October in the Fasig Tipton Timonium sale.

I can't wait to tell the farm owner how everyone loves it. It's a small private farm but they do things right.

Not a spot of white on her. She is built like her sire. After talking to the stud farm he is stamping his babies, they all look alike. Great shoulders, short strong back, great hip and powerful hind end, good bone and conformation is very good.

When she gallops around mom she wastes no action, does figure 8's around her and changes leads effortlessly. She's been eating grain, hay and grass since she was a week old, started drinking water early at 2 weeks old. She is now 1 month.

Going back to Request For Parole.

Finally got ahold of Fox Tale and Request For Parole is already in quarenteen so we can't go to him. Am looking at their other stallions who match up nice with It's All Good too so we'll probably go to one of them.

Called Dr. Solomon of Pin Oak Lane regarding Albert The Great and he won't budge from the stud fee of $3,500, not even for a PA bred. So he's out of the question, about $1,500 more than we want to spend. So much for stud farms willing to negotiate................

Decided on Capitano for It's All Good. I think he fits her well and I'm sure I'll be happy with the foal next year.

Nice filly! looks a lot like our Straight Man (St Ballado) filly - we call her "Plain Jane:, but she's actually pretty fancy lol!

I think "Plain Janes" are the horse of 2009! Very nice.

Colorwise, we get the plainest foals of anyone. We've had a couple of chestnuts with chrome lately but usually it's just one solid colored horse after another for us. For what it's worth, the nicest foal we ever bred was plain bay, but it didn't seem to hold him back any. :wink:

One thing I know, they don't know or care what their color is, they don't know where they were born either. If they have the heart and talent to run fast, they do it. Even though we like to take credit for the good ones ( me too ) it's really God's work and I try to thank Him every day.

Fox Tale says if you walk down their barn you can tell which foals are Request For Parole's babies. I love that he stamps his babies.....
