A Colt!!!!!!! Added Pics

Postby emmad » Thu Nov 02, 2006 11:45 am

Not official yet but a friend of ours lives opposite the foaling area at Westbury Stud and asked to be called when CITC was foaling. He sent us a txt this morning to say she had a colt during the night.
Colin is beaming lol.

Will visit on Sunday and take pics

Took some pics today. Not the best pics do not do him justice as he was a bit shy and standing wide when I quickly took the shots lol

Colin has called him Cee and here is why lol

I can see where he gets his name. He's a cutie! And, I'm jealous of your sunshine and lush grass right now...

He's lovely! Having a "c" for my first initial I'm thinking "cee" is a great name. He's a cutie and mom is a pretty nice looking mare. And I agree - jealous of the green grass and sunshine!

Wish we could keep him but he was bred to sell so to the yearling sales he shall go unless we win lotto or something lol.

We have the 2yo half sister which we plan to put into work shortly. Hoping we can win with her to boost this fella's value.

Very pleased with the mare actually she's had two foals now (missed second year) and both are nice types (though little early to tell with the colt lol). She's going back to the sire of the colt so hoping for a repeat next year.

Cute little guy, I like mom too.
If I remember correctly, I think you had posted a picture of his half sister.
I remember a photo of a gorgeous filly, from a while back.
Best of luck with him.

Will have more pics of Cee later too. Especially once they are back home.
