Foaly here, is, shall we say NAUGHTY! He is almost impossible to catch and is if you are on your own. He is very difficult to lead, lunges forward or shoots back - both showing speed, and when it may or may not apply! (can't deny that is good for a potential racehorse!?) He is showing the classic 'four legs on stable door frame' way of refusing to enter his stable, and the same when leaving it!! (Uh oh for the stalls handlers!!) He strops by sitting on the floor, and then perfecting his capriole (sp?) daily. He loves to show his 'wall of death' routine around both his stable and the small paddock - when of course he is in them. His mother can't do much with him, and it seems he has got all of us (experienced) stud hands shaking our heads in despair at how the hell we will cope with him in a few months when he is a lot bigger, if we are already struggling with him now at this 'little' stage!!

May have to keep notes of how naughty/good, what he has done or hasn't done, and have the bruises to prove it, so we can all look back in a few years when he may be a champ, and go - least it was worth it!!

He could do with a stable name too!




NOT A VIDEO, TIS A PICTURE.. not sure what happened there!
 
Call him Captain Chaos!!!

or CC for short! :D

ps I LOVE him and also feel "done out of" a naughty foalie video!!! :p
 
Back him now and break his spirit sharpish? :p

Captain Chaos sounds like an appropriate name!
 
Aw, he's a cutie.
What about:
Teddy
Tucker
Trouble
Bailey
Bobby
Ricky
Devlin
Storm

can you tell i'm lame with names? :D
 
I'd just call him The Devil Incarnate lol! It'll all be worth it when he goes down this route - wins his 2yo maiden in June/July nicely followed up by a listed win before being put away for the winter. Then as a 3yo he takes in the Guinaes, Derby, Irish Derby and then the Arc before possibly the Breeders Cup but probably not. And then as a 4yo he can be back with you to terrorise you all standing at stud :D A well thought out plan to keep you going!

Just out of interest - how is he bred?
 
Awww how cute is he!
Possible names:
Trouble,
Devil,
Tigger,
Houdini :D
Bonkers
Boomerang,
Bandit
Patience (if he requires a lot!)
Spirit
Stubborn
Worm
Rascal
Marley
Monster
Boo (from monsters inc. :D )
Boom (as in explosive bomb boom)
Rambo
Rowdy
Randall (the evil one from monsters inc)
Lanky
I'm really bad at names :o
 
Back him now and break his spirit sharpish? :p

Captain Chaos sounds like an appropriate name!

Yeah, then if you can't handle him sell him on to a well known dealer who can then sell him as a 10 yr old riding horse suitable for a novice:p

Op he is gorgeous! I like captain chaos or little terror... Terry for short :D
