Maggie (officially Indigo Tralee Rosebud) is one of my favourite 'babies'. She's by my own stallion, Lady's Tralee Raj out of a Hornby Select RID mare, Northwood Rose.

Last year she gave me a lovely bay filly by Kenson's Aragorn (called Sweet Magic) - and was undoubtedly the easiest maiden mare one could hope for. This year, she's given me another super filly - born last night - by Avanti Amorous Archie! This one will be called Sweet Melody.

There are NO prizes for guessing what colour she's going to be!

Another cracking foal JG, and how lovely she's a filly.

Thank you all for your kind words! I just LOVE this mare; she's an incredibly sweet-natured girl and a great Mum although she's only 5. And if she keeps having fillies, I'll love her even more!

This is Maggie's first filly (by Kenson's Aragorn)

Much more white on her than this year's - could have done with HER going grey!
 
My maiden RID mare bred me two super purebred fillies in 2005 and 2006. She had a year off in 2007 when she was sold to Ireland and had her third foal, yes you guessed it another purebred filly in 2008. Like your mare she is a fab mum and babies are always very sociable. I'm sure your lovely mare will come up with the goods next time for you.

Beautiful Janet. Your boy certainly does knit great babies. Two lovely granddaughters for him now.

He does - but more than two! Maggie has had 2, and then Pride had a filly by Ari last year and a filly by Archie this year, and Dawn - who is Pride's full sister a year younger, had a filly by Archie this year (her first.)

I'm seeing a trend though - 5 foals in 2 years from 3 Raj daughters - and ALL fillies!! (We Irish Draught breeders ALL want fillies!
