Our only foal of the year finally made his entrance.

And I couldn't be more please with him. This is the first colt by our World and National Champion stallion, RHA Mercury Rising and out of our Res World Champion, Ravenwood Medalions Moments To Love. Its also Lovie's first foal and she is being an outstanding mother. He cooked a good while, coming at 352 days and is about 22" tall with an 7 3/4 cannon bone. We don't have a registered name for him yet, but his barn name is Nick, because he got here just in the nick of time. If he had not arrived by Monday morning, I couldn't go to the horse show this week. So Lovie finally got busy about 6 pm Sunday night. Everything was textbook, but she did need some help as he is a pretty big colt for a first time baby. But so far so good, he is doing great and I have wonderful barn sitters to look after them. So I am off to the show tomorrow to watch my colt from last year show for the first time. Its just been an exciting week already. Thanks for letting me share.

Thank you all, we do really like this colt and our hopes are to geld him to start showing next year. And yes, we did have a nice colt last year as well, he will be going to his first show this week in Williamston, NC. I am so excited about seeing how he will do. Since we are breeding for our own show horses, so far we have been very blessed to have two different mares have wonderful babies by two different stallions. Trust me, I count my blessings every day.

Thanks Barbie, I am so excited about him showing. He is out of Party Doll, so its fun to have him this far, He is only 27" and solid black.

Matt, this is my Medalion daughter that we have had for four years now. She was Res World Champion as a yearling and top five as a sr mare in Amateur Level 2. I am very proud of her and this baby.

Of course, with those two as parents, it's hard to imagine anything but a stunning foal.
