My mare is so special, took to this baby instantly. To see that traumitised look disappear from her face and his face look so happy with a tummy full of milk and a new mum - magical. Makes the past awful 24 hrs easier to process.
Thank you so much

Territories colt out of Crystalized.
I've not slept in weeks but so happy he's here and healthy 💙

Horse owners in general Joey! This is the thing anti racing people don't understand. Horses can hurt themselves fataly in the safest setting 😞
One healthy calf, 2 delivered. Tried everything to get the 2nd out and revive him. Leg stuck back, white gums got him breathing but not to be. Mumma cow rested her head on me and looked me right in the eye. I'm pretty tough but that one really got me 💔

Her brother cost 1.2 million Euro at Arqana breeze ups earlier this year! 💶💶
After raising a baby that wasn't hers, I get to bring her home next week. An incredible mare, I've missed her so much 💖
Thank you to Sarah Jackson for taking such great care of her ❤️
If you don't fancy getting all dressed up, paying £7 for a pint, dealing with big crowds & ques, go pointing!
Pack pair of wellies and BYO picnic, it's great fun & could do with more support... Plenty on over the holidays 🐎🎄

. Traumatic and disturbing to think people are going about their day treating these gorgeous babies so horrifically.
People need to go to jail for this.
2013, Newmarket. Two of the foals now Sires, one an Eclipse winner. Dams are multiple Grp1 winners including Cheshire, Epsom, Irish Oaks and Guineas. One won 7 Grp 1s and is an Eclipse Award winner for outstanding Female Turf horse....

There aren't any awards for sales staff working 13hr + days for weeks/months on end in baltic conditions & missing important family events, but if there were, the trophy should be a flight to the Bahamas 😊❄️✈️
You have to thank

has yet another top prospect! 👀
Undefeated, multiple G3 winner Lazzat took his record to five from five and now has targets like the $10 million Golden Eagle in his sights! 🏆

He should be outside today but
#stormnoa
I don't want mud splashes on his belly button, or risk him hurting his baby joints slipping on wet ground as he will want to gallop about.
Lucky he has a big open barn to play in till the storm passes.

My mare, Crystalized shares a 5th dam in Kerala dam of Damascus - who went on to produce Lost Virtue, dam of Quandary, All at Sea.
This Territories colt is a direct line of Damascus - let the genes lottery come through!!
Chronic levels of prize money = brutal sales results for breeders suffering inflated costs. Yesterday's session was 51% down in ££ turnover compared with last yr. This is not good at all.
💬 "Even before he’d had a runner I’ve bought at least one foal by Havana Grey each year and I’ve had a bit of luck with him."
Havana Grey holds sway but challenging conditions prevail on day one of December Foal Sale.

Look how happy this lad is, he just radiates positivity, the sun hasn't even been out this week, we are flooded from storms and everything is muddy, it's grim and he finishes each day looking at me like this. What a star ❤️😊🥰
We are a day before the winter solstice ❄️
After the 21st Dec the days will start to become slightly lighter, ready for Spring 🌻
Something to consider if you are struggling 🌞
Strong home on the bridle after a day in the nursery🍼 We've seen tractors, jeeps, scary farm machinery, cows and dog walkers.

Rushed my Aunt to a&e last night on what should have been our family drinks night. Severe Sepsis.
A very switched on Dr listened & acted, saved her life. She's still not out the the woods but how lucky we are to have these amazing HC professionals 🙏
