As some of you know I had a bit of a shock 2 weeks ago when I found out my 4 year old was in foal. A few pictures below of mummy to be enjoying being out with her friends. She is by ARD VDL Douglas out of a mare called Drumagoland who was by Zero Watt. The possible father was by a horse by Shutterfly. Hopefully it will be a nice foal!

Thank you everyone for your messages, I probably wear rose tinted specs with her so it is nice to hear other people like her. The vets think she will foal anytime from February onwards which fits in with when the colt could have jumped into her field. She is away at the moment so that she can be out 24/7 but I will get her back Christmas time and then she will be watched like a hawk for any signs!

How big was the fence and did he jump it nice and "clean"? :D
 
She is a nice mare & I think she might have some Welsh in her as her dam Drumagoland was ex of ISH Jipsy Rose who was by Esceifiog Hudolwr. The Esceifiog Prefix belongs to W.E.Jones, Gaerwen Ganol who is a Welsh Cob breeder & judge.

That's really interesting, I wondered how her dam was bred but hadn't investigated. That is probably where the her confidence comes from, she is very brave jumping, never looks at anything.

She's a lovely lookin mare. Real Douglas looking. Yo must be so proud. Is the sire cut now or stayed entire? It's be great if he gets graded in the future and you have a cut from the first batch!!

If the foal is by the colt we think it will be the only one ever! He was running with 2 mares at the yard because his breeder really wanted a couple of foals by him before he was cut but he wouldn't cover them! He is now cut and has just been broken and is apparently a real star, so we could potentially have a very serious foal but it is a long way from now till the Olympics so I won't get excited yet.

That is brilliant, thank you. Where do you find all this stuff? What is quite funny, is that about 6 weeks ago I said to my OH that I thought Dotty's dam might have been grey because she has grey flecks in her winter coat, and as it turns out I was right. Do you know anything about her breeder Peter Brady. I know she won her loose jumping section at Cavan last year and that she was bought by a dealer then sold on to England but not much else.

They all help & I am always being asked by friends & friends of friends now if I can help trace any info on their horses. Most of the info is there, it is just having the time to trawl through it all. Life is a lot easier now then when I was doing this 20yrs ago, then it was trawling through breed society stud books, no search engine there!
 
Thank you Magic, that is brilliant. I have investigated lots of her breeding now. I knew her Sire's side was quite decent and popular but it is really nice to find that her dam's side is good as well as I believe from what everyone tells me that is as if not more important with breeding. I'm getting myself quite excited now although sadly I won't be able to keep the foal but if he is really nice he should sell to a decent home.

Can you give me an update on what happened with the foal...???Realize a long time ago but have similar horse

The foal is now a very wicked 5 year old! I posted a photo of her at her first hunter trial a few weeks ago. She has come out very Welsh indeed, she has masses of ability, is lovely to look at and highly intelligent. All this needs harnessing in the right direction or she can be a proper madam.
The mare I sold to a friend who lives locally, she has just had another lovely foal by a New Forest.
