Location: You never know where I will show up...... | I didn't mean to sidetrack the clone thread when I got OT about recipient mares. And Lena May's babies were brought up so I thought I'd just start my own thread. I don't get on her a lot to post these days but I had a few minutes today before I head off to an appointment so here goes. Pictures to follow below. :) |

Location: You never know where I will show up...... | This is the oldest. She is by Firewater Finale. She's appropriately named Bratzilla. She's a 3 year old and I just started her on barrels last week. I am very excited about her.

Location: You never know where I will show up...... | Lena May has three 2 year olds this year. Two of them were colts, we gelded and sold them as babies. One is out in Washington state, the other is in OK with a very capable futurity trainer! So we are excited to see what they do! They are both by Firewater Finale, so they are full brothers to Bratzilla whom I posted pictures of above.
We kept her 2 year old filly. She's named Palena. She is sired by our stallion, Frostman San Peppy, "Pablo". He 's a son of Frenchmans Guy that I ran and won a lot in 10 years ago. This filly is going to be started under saddle in the next month.

Location: You never know where I will show up...... | We have two long yearlings out of Lena May. One is an embryo transfer, sired by Pablo, the FG son that we have. Here's the yearling by Pablo. Her name is Bernadette. She was pulled out of the pasture so we didn't exactly groom her up for the picture LOL. (full sister to the palomino filly above):
The other one is by Firewater Finale. We named her Bazinga. Long story short, we bred Lena May and flushed her and didn't get an embryo. Normally you would give a Lutalyse injection to either shorty cycle the mare back but since it was July when we did the last flush that year, we didn't bother. We didn't bring her back in to check her for a pregnancy since nothing came out in the flush. A few months later she had a big tummy...for Lena anyway.....well she was baking this filly. So that is how she got the name of Bazinga. The joke was on us. This is a full sister to Bratzilla. She is really, really naughty. And the only one so far that Lena May has carried. She was pouting VERY BADLY in this picture.

Location: You never know where I will show up...... | Since Bazinga was born late, we didn't breed or flush Lena May last year. We gave her the year off from all of that stuff. We flushed her once this past spring, to French Streaktovegas. We are expecting a foal via recip mare, sometime in April 2015. We are planning to flush her once to Firewater Finale again, in the spring. She had no problems carrying and raising Bazinga, but I feel it is less stress on her bad leg, to let a recip mare do the work for her.  |

Location: You never know where I will show up...... | Here is a video of Bratzilla loping through the barrels for the very first time. She had 30 days riding last year as a 2 year old. She was turned out for nearly a full year and I just brought her in from the pasture 30 days ago. I've been riding her every day I have been home, and this was only her 4th day on the barrel pattern. She's like both of her parents....a natural in every way and I can't wait to run her at the futurities. I am planning to wait until she is 5 but if she lets me know she's ready sooner, we may be going this fall. Time will tell. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o15ArheDgk4&feature=youtu.be
