Its that time of year when the foals are getting big enough to leave their mum. In the case of Molly (Over / Dirtierre) today is the day. Weaning the foals is always difficult for me, but Evan says thats just because I get too attached to all the horses! Molly has had a little bit of education prior to going into the weaning barn and her mate Angel (Hidden Dragon / Local News) will now become her best buddy.
Molly is a very sensible girl and seems to take everything in her stride. To me, she looks like a real racehorse in the making.
Evan keeps telling me that Pixie Lix is next on the list. However, its going to be especially difficult for me because I know how much Pip (and Gossy for that matter) love her. She was a miracle after all and to be perfectly honest I thought that the trauma Pip went through with her leg would be the end of Pix during the pregnancy. However, thank God, it was not to be and we now have the wonderful Pixie - by Conatus (with the beautiful Denise's Joy family) out of Epiphany - by Century out of Biscay Dancer.
Am I a little biased? You bet!
