More mares turfed out!

The weather is still holding fine (I'm ignoring Met Check saying snow next week... surely its having a laugh?)  So the rest of the girls have gone out.

Tammy (Gordian Knot) and Stela (Chamfron Compostela)


Tammy again.


Chamfron Compostela at 23 months old (minimally marked appaloosa)


Ruby (Shesa Perfect Zippo)


Molly (Abelbeck) 


Tammy (Gordian Knot)


Bridget (La Reine de Rome) giving Ruby her best confused look!

Just Erica and her foal and two yearlings to turn out, one of the yearlings will be going out "two stones lighter" but shhh don't tell him that!

Baggages!!!!

Molly and Ruby working out who's boss!  I may add these two have spent all winter happily in the barn with nothing but a plank of two by four separating them, sharing a water bucket and grooming each other.  Needless to say they are now happily grazing, not sure who "won" though.



Chip in Surrey!

Bitten the bullet!

Well there isn't a lot of grass in the back field but the sun is shinning so the geriatrics had their rugs off and out they went...


Hector is not so convinced I've called this right...

Chamfron Chipita away to her new home!

We delivered Chip to her new home with Lorna in Surrey yesterday.


Chip with her checklist as she came off the trailer - ten degrees warmer than Scotland?  *tick*  Grass as far as the eye can see?  *tick*  Electric gates?  *tick*  Pristine stable with hanging basket?  *tick*  Adoring fans?  *tick*

A happy foal!

Any one remember?

Pleased to hear Dorey has foaled down a bay filly by Bollin Terry for Kat.  Dorey stayed here while Kat took a year out in Australia and being very striking with distinctive blood marks on her face and shoulders she had her own group of fans!

Chamfron Aguacero out for a spin!

A quick spin in the paddock while the sun was out, divots flying everywhere, still rather wet under foot!
