Oliver Twist (bay)

PP Holme Park Diva (chestnut)

Diva was waxed up for the last 24 hours so felt sure she would foal last night. However she waited until I went to work and foaled at a very civilised 09:35am this morning. This was our last chance at an Oliver Twist filly - but no it is another colt! I watched the birth on CCTV from my office and the photos below are from the camera. I will add more photos once I go home lunchtime.

We bred 5 mares to Oliver Twist. Liaison unfortunately aborted a filly part way and the other 4 all had colts. They are all wonderful colts and now we must decide if we keep any as stallion prospects.

Now met our new baby and he is another really cracking foal. difficult to say which is the best this year. Will be interested to see them all at our Open Day.
