"Eva" is a gorgeous, light buckskin filly born in May 2010, by the cremello Thoroughbred stallion - Guaranteed Gold out of the Selle Francais mare - Junonia, who is by the wonderful American Grand Prix jumper - Olisco.

Olisco, who earned over $350,000 in prize money during his career, winning numerous Grand Prix in North America. Ridden by Michael Dorman, he was the highest placed American Horse at the 1990 World Cup. In 1992, he finished 2nd in the Olympic Trials and went to Barcelona as Michael Matz' reserve horse. Some of Olisco's progeny include D'Accord, Game Plan, One Hot Night, Harbourside and Nolisco. She is out of a TB mare - Philenia - who combines the very best in British, Irish, French and Italian bloodlines not often found in North American Thoroughbreds!

Here are some pictures of her taken at 2 weeks of age:

Would also possibly be interested in a full or partial trade for a nice TB or WB mare to add to my broodmare ranks :)

Thanks so much everyone! :)

equiniphile - that "speck" is actually her whorl on her forehead. Its really strange looking (for a whorl anyhow!) - it almost looks like a little star, but isnt ... :)

nittany - as much as I'd love to do so, there is no more room "at the Inn"! :) I have my new Puchi Doll mare coming in the next few weeks and that maxxes me out at 8. Plus I will have 4 mares bred for 2011 and if I get the ET foals on Faux Finish this year, that will give me 6 foals in 2012. AND ... I have to be VERY aware come weaning time each year, I only have 8 stalls in my barn! And I just dont know if I want more than 8 horses around here - in the winter its tough enough to get that many done on my own! :)

You guys are really get blasted by the snow for the 2nd (or 3rd???) winter in a row now! Heck we have LESS snow than you do in "The Great White North". How does THAT work?! :lol:

You need to sell a bunch of them and buy this nice filly or breed your gorgeous TB mare to Guaranteed Gold ... :)

THats MY suggestion! :D

Yea I totally agree. But it's the whole selling thing that is catching me up because I'm picky as hell and no offense to HF'ers because we are a pretty good lot but most horse people are insane. I had people want my just started, 15 rides 3 yr old definitely english-type moving pony for a 4 yr old to do rodeo on...And someone else wanted to lease my mare that you like so much who is a great mare but NOT beginner friendly for their 9 yr old to do trail rides, play days, parades and rodeo. I'm like what about a 16.1hh TB mare that says NEEDS EXPERIENCED RIDER screams kids horse for THAT???!!! Insanity I tell you. But I have interest in both ponies and I might be getting that nice WB mare so you might be getting a mare of some sort from me in the next few years. =) Although are you sure you don't want a really nice cremello pony filly to add to your collection? I'm sure she'd drop great babies and has great movement =P

Well - Eva has been sold and leaves for her new home tomorrow ...

Her new owner is thrilled to bits over her and plans a dressage career for her in the future

Here are a couple more pics I took yesterday of her:

Thanks to everyone who enquired on her! :)

Professional horse breeders breed for high quality young stock that they can sell on to people looking for competition prospects. Not everyone that breeds keeps the horses once they're born and problem of overpopulation only comes into play from breeding when people breed just to breed without taking into consideration the market, what people are looking for, crossing bloodlines and breeds to IMPROVE the breed(s) and/or the horse industry and only breeding enough to fill the need and that they can reasonably sell or keep.

Thanks nittany! :)

It is not a case of me not being able to "keep them" (and FWIW - I am not the breeder of this filly. A friend of mine is who had a very bad car accident several years ago and the physical issues are starting to catch up with her now, plus she just got married and the family and the doctors told her that she HAS to downsize or she is going to find herself in a wheelchair sooner rather than later). It was win/win for everyone - she had one less horse on the property to look after, I got a filly that I have loved since the day she was born, the new owner has a fabulous filly that is going to be her new dressage partner in a few years time, I get one more Guaranteed Gold baby out there in the show world, that will be showing on someone else's dime and not mine, it frees up one more stall for me to get another nice mare in to breed to either Guaranteed Gold or Winner and get one more offspring of theirs out there, and on and on it goes

I dont have unlimited funds nor do I have unlimited stalls. For one more to come in, one has to go out especially now as it appears that I may well be hanging onto the Four Feet of Snow colt for the next few years at least. In 2012 if all goes well, I am expecting 4 foals so I MUST market and sell them in order to maintain that flow and have cash coming in to look after them all.

Make sense?! :)

Ive always loved the Frosty (Four Feet of Snow) colt and especially once his full brother died a few months back, I really wanted one to hang onto for a bit and promote from the very beginning. Pretty well like I did with the Faux Finish mare - his full sister

So - the plan is to hang onto him now for the forseeable future, show him a bit, get him backed, get him approved and then go from there. However as luck would have it, Ive had a serious enquiry from Thailand of all places who have been seriously developing their breeding program over the last decade. While it would be a neat sale for me, its going to do exactly diddley squat for me in the Sport Horse breeding world and the North American breeding scene, to have him go to Thailand. Another offer on the table is from Cuba for him but same thing with selling him there. Lovely sale for me, somewhat of a feather in my cap to say Ive sold something to that part of the world, but long term it does me exactly "0" worth of good ...

Yea I hear you. I have a friend that hit the same predicament. If you keep him and campaign him he will only increase in worth so if you can then I would do that. Post more pics and info on him! I'm in major baby fever. I think I'm going to let a local TB breeder break my mare's maiden this spring. =)

Here you go - here are a few pictures I took of him last week in a veritable blizzard so they are pretty dull looking. Plus with his winter coat being almost white, its pretty hard to tell that he's palomino and white at all! :D

These are at 8 months of age:



and:



I am REALLY liking this colt a lot as a future stallion prospect and with him being dual registered with APHA as a Paint, that also opens a lot of different doors for him as well :)
