WELL! What a difference 24 hours makes. We now have 2 out of 3 youngsters now- Pushing Boundaries had a colt at Cornerstone Stud in SA by Ad Valorem (see next post) and Destiny's Rose had her first foal at Kooringal Stud in Wagga Wagga- a filly by Ad Valorem and here she is. She's a cutie!

Beau is a bay weanling colt by Pluck. He is the first foal of Royal Red (Royal Academy). He is growing and progressing well.
He is a quick learner and good to handle. So far he seems pretty sensible. He will shortly be for sale.

Long post, but please read if you are breeding. Daiquiri had a foal during the night Tuesday unattended. (unplanned pregnancy â naughty stallion). We found her ...around 5AM Wednesday. She was running around acting seemingly normal. When we picked her up, watery diarrhea gushed out. When I went back to check on her, she was continuing to have diarrhea, almost constant hiccups, sneezing and coughing. Had yet to see her nurse. Tried to get her nurse, but she wouldnât. I milked the mare and tried to force feed. She didnât want to swallow. Kept force feeding every hour. Gave her Bio-sponge and kaopectate. She continued to get weaker and didnât want to nurse. Her mom was kinda ignoring her. She collapsed Tuesday afternoon and was shaking and having the hiccups. Karo syrup got her back up. Seemed much better. Wednesday she was more active in the morning but couldnât nurse and watery diarrhea continued. She collapsed again that afternoon and was almost unresponsive. Once again Kar…
Here we are talking to our lovely Pluck filly for the first time. Isn't she brave and friendly for a 4 day old foal?
This should mean that she will be easy to work with when she comes home.

Here she is! A lovely tall leggy filly by Pluck (USA) out of Drivetime (Scenic (ire))
She is an inquisitive and a quite confident young foal and very friendly. She's now 7 days old. She's 4 days old in these photos.
We are looking forward to her coming home and I am looking forward to working with her and getting to know her better.
My Next Winner is pleased to announce the safe arrival of a filly foal at 4.00 am this morning. She is by Pluck (USA) out of Drivetime and was born at Holbrook Thoroughbreds Gundy.
Photos and maybe a video will be posted on Sunday evening
Bart was probably the best trainer of stayers that Australia has ever had and was one of the few people to keep the staying dream alive in a country obsessed with breeding sprinters except at Melbourne Cup time.
The trainer of 12 Melbourne Cup winners is testimony to his ability to train stayers.
Many will also remember his very dry ands wicked wit and his fondness for steak and eggs.
A true legend.
RIP BART
