Spanish Guitar bore a healthy colt last night in NY. I'm headed out now, but will try to get pictures ASAP! :D

As soon as I can get the photos in the right format, I'll post them. He is by Eddington out of Spanish Guitar by Birdonthewire. He's chestnut with a diamond-shaped star, right fore ankle white, and both rear limbs with white over half-way up the cannons. He's eating hay at 12 hours of age! :P :lol: Mama is attentive as always. 8)

Sorry, no pictures yet for viewing. :? Mama and "Eddie" are traveling to Kentucky so his dam can be bred to Lion Heart. :o 8)

Oh, I love Eddington. Beautiful boy and mom is gorgeous, too. The very best wishes for them both. Big Business. Great name.

So gorgeous. He's looking at you like "hey, are you watching me while I sleep again? Seriously..." I'm sure he'll do his daddy proud, what a looker.

Is Spanish Guitar getting the year off or are you breeding her back this time?

Heidilady, she's already in Kentucky, waiting to meet up with Lion Heart. We are hoping both the Eddington and Lion Heart foals will sell well as New York-breds before she skips a year. Or I may decide to sell her pregnant this fall.
