New silver dappel ridninghorse for sale, Bylur frá Hvammi 2. NOT our horse!!

30.january 2010!!
HAPPY NEW YEAR! Thanks for all friendship, business, photos and news by the sold horses from us.
The year started very mild and wet, but now we have some frost. But we can´t complain about hard winter, at least not yet
The foals I bought are now here home with us, and have been registered and chipmarked, like ALL our foals since 1999. I have been asked a lot if these colorful foals are for sale........well I might sell one for the "right" offer, but otherwise I plan to keep the foals for myself. But ofcourse horses not listed as salehorses can possibly be for sale even tho they ain´t on the salelist and don´t have an price, they are only for sale for the ...., yes!... for the right offer  But it doesn´t cost anything to make an offer, all we say is either yes or no! Also if you are intrested to buy 2 or more horses together, then some disscount is very likely. Here you find photos by all our horses!
I have booked one fee for the summer 2010, it´s to the stallion Kvistur frá Skagaströnd (1.prize son of Hróður frá Refsstöðum). There are also many more stallions I´m intrested to use, choosing can be so difficult, as you can´t afford to use them all
 I have start making an list over where many intresting stallions will serve their mares summer 2010. Please if you know of some stallion/s that should be on this list, just send me an mail with his location, fee cost and which season!! 
HERE is the list, hope you find the stallion/s you want to breed your mare/s to!! We might also have the mare for you
We are also looking out for an nice stallion to have here at our farm summer 2010, to serve many of our mares. Anyone who have intresting stallion to offer are welcome to contakt us.


18.Desember 2009!!
The sale have been good, specially in the trained/broken in horses. But also fine with the foals and the youngsters.
We decided to keep all the foals, as we don´t want to slaughter these nice foals after 1.prize stallion.
We did put 3 mares down  all mares who have been our favourites, so the decision was VERY hard. But to keep the herd under control we decided to put down these 3 mares, as 2 of them were getting quite old and one had her stomack hanging (don´t know the english word for it. It happens sometimes with the sheep) ! But our dearest Blekking, Kleópatra and Móna will truly be missed. All mares with strong personality and gave us many good offsprings.
All the foals have been chipmarked now, except the foals I bought. They will be chipmarked soon and come to our farm We have taken 6 foals inside already, ofcourse all the foals after the mares we put down, and also the foal after Gnótt (as she will go to training soon), Hrafntinna and Míla.
We only have 2 horses born 2006 (Dimma and Spurn), so not many horses getting started the year 2010. But we have many horses born 2005 (Gnótt, Viska, Fjöður, Sandra, Assa and Ögri) and 2004 (Neisti and Ungfrú) we will training more this winter. They are all 1-3 months trained now, so just need to be trained more.

Merry Christmas to you all!!


27.november 2009.
It´s been long since I have wrote something. The sale is going well, and it´s difficult to get an flight to Liege as the sale to main Europe is so much. But they will get there, just on the New Year:o)
Many of the salefoals are already sold but still few ones looking for their new home!
Here is video by Þorgrímur frá Litlalandi (the foals father) when he was evaluated spring 2009 and got 1.price:o)  and here is another video by Þorgrímur.
We did breed 21 mare this year, the stallions we did use were;
Huginn frá Haga (Fregn is ultra soned in foal by him),
Glymur frá Innri-Skeljabrekku (Orka is ultra soned in foal by him),
Þristur frá Þorlákshöfn (both Askja and Djásn are ultar soned on foal by him),
Then we did breed the mares; Auda, Gígja, Tinna, Leista, Stássa, Bryti, Erla, Gæska, Staka, Hálf, Míla, Stelpa, Gæfa, Agða, Irpa, Drótt and Hrafntinna to the stallion Geisli frá Lundum II, he did serve our mares here at our farm.
I did bought four foals this year, 3 mares and 1 stallion.  I didn´t plan to buy foals but you know how it is........sometimes you just can´t help yourself


21.okt. 2009.

Flight plans are;
To Sweden; around middle of january.
To Denmark: 19.desember, in end of januay or early february 2010.
To Liege: 6. january, 13 january, 20 january 2010.
To New York: ?


14.oktober 2009.
Sorry how long since I have write some news. Some of the sold horses have been going to their new owners, it is always difficult to see them go but knowing they will get good homes with good people makes it easier.  And getting photos by them at their new home is just GREAT! Thanks you all who have send us photos:o) Still there are several sold horses still at our place, some will go soon but others will stay for some time. For those of you who haven´t yet told us what your plan is with your horse(s) please do soon. So if you plan to take it/them we can arranged that or if they will stay this winter/next year it´s good to know for sure.
We still have some foals left looking for new homes, the foals are mostly after the 1.prize stallion Þorgrímur frá Litlalandi. They show both trot and tölt in the fields and good movements. They are courious and lovely. Maybe you will find your future horse in any of these foals:o) We offer special pack price if you buy 2 or more!!
We have also few mares in foal for sale, they can be exported no later than february 2010, as pregnant mares can´t be exported after 8 months pregnancy. They are in foal after Geisli frá Lundum II, very promissing (already got good 2.prize at 4 years old) stallion. We say VERY likely to get 1.prize next year!! And one mare in foal after the 1.prize black pinto stallion Þristur frá Þorlákshöfn (score 8.40).
We also have good trained/broken in horses for sale and  beautiful youngsters, mares and gelding.
And now my secret;
I have bought an silver dappel splash stallion foal!! So  the year 2011 he will be ready to serve few mares:o)  More about him later.


18. august 2009.
Now Geisli frá Lundum II have leave from our farm, and hopefully all his mares in foal by him. We are sure he will do it good in the future, very handsome and beautiful young stallion. Now all the mares we did breed elsewere are back home and they have ALL been ultrasoned in foal  Djásn and Askja in foal by Þristur frá Þorlákshöfn, Fregn in foal by Huginn frá Haga and Orka in foal by Glymur frá Innri-Skeljabrekku. Then Gola and Sýn (both sold) are also in foal by Glymur frá Innri-Skeljabrekku, so Bodil and Helle will also expect foal after him next summer  Now we just have to wait for the foals to be born next summer.


5.august 2009.
We have now change the horse prices back to the Icelandic krona´s (ISK). To get the price in diffrent currency use this currency converter . Also maybe you want to use the google translater to change the text into your language (not all languages available but many are).
Bjarmi frá Lundum II is not on the worldchampionship as there were some misstake about injecting him in time, so he was not allowed to the Worldchampion area:( Better luck next time. But I have heard he is sold to France already.
I also want to remind buyers in Faroe Island that it´s still an chance to ship horses with Smyril line, in august and september too I think.
Also PLEASE eveyone who haven´t already contact us recently about their horse(s), who are still staying  at our farm, we need to know if they will leave us this fall or will stay for longer!!
My best,
Guðrún.



29.july 2009.
All foals are now born, Von had chestnut pinto stallion after Þorgrímur. And now I have seen the gender of Kleópatra´s foal and it´s an mare  So 10 stallionfoals and 12 marefoals this year!!!
Djásn and Askja are back home from beign breeded to Þristur frá Þorlákshöfn, both in foal  Fregn is now sonartested in foal by Huginn frá Haga  I was lucky as only 50% of his mares in early season are in foal.  Orka, Sýn (SOLD) and Gola(SOLD) will probably stay with Glymur frá Innri-Skeljabrekku till 12 august, and are hopefully all already pregnant now.
The stallion Geisli frá Lundum II is still at our farm with our mares. His FULLbrother Bjarmi frá Lundum II will be competing on the Worldchampionship in Swiss (3-9 august) in catecory stallions 7 years and older. He will hopefully be very succsessful
Latest news about flight;
Next flight to Billund/Denmark and Norrkjöping/Sweden are now planed in late august or early september.
Next flight to Liege is planed 18-19 august.

It would be nice to hear from all of you soon who still have horse(s) staying at our farm, so we just know for sure if you will take your horse this autum or if you want it/they to stay for longer.



21.july 2009.
Special price on all the salefoals now!! Also 2 trained geldings!!!!!!!!! Also if you buy two or more of all the salehorses we make you an pack deal




17.july 2009.
Now are 21 foals born, but still one unborn. Our old mare Kleópatra have give an birth to a chestnut pinto foal (Don´t know the gender yet) after Þorgrímur frá Litlalandi (1.prize), this was a big supprise as we thought she was not in foal (just like many old mares with big belly), but no she did gave us her last offspring We ofcourse hope it´s an marefoal and it would not be worse if homozygous pinto too, as both parents are pintos. At least the foal is much white just the head and chest is chestnut, and big blaze. Von have not yet give birth, she was so late last year and then again this summer, so this year we won´t breed her, hoping she will get bit earlier then 2010 in heat 
I have now FINALLY got new/recent photos by all the sold horses who are staying at our farm, and their photos can been seen in their privat albums or here in summer 2009 album (those who don´t have privat albums). Also always some new photos by the salehorses, see the "Horses for sale/Söluhross/Verkauf" link her at the right.
My best,
Guðrún.

Bjarmi have 9 for neck/shoulders, back, form and trot). See video by Geisli from the evaliation this spring.


3.june 2009.
ÞORGRÍMUR frá LITLALANDI did get 1.prize today
We have ALMOST decided wich stallion we will loan for the summer for our mares here at home,  there are now 2 stallions fighting to be choosed by us! We probably decide tomorrow. We have got SO MANY intresting stallion to choose from, and I thank all the people who did contact us and offered to loan us their stallions, it was  difficult to choose from all these lovely stallions and many of them very intresting but we have to bet on someone and just hope we have choosen wisely.
1 more foal born. I have only seen it from far, as the mare did go high up on the montain to give birth, but it is also CHESTNUT!! We wonder if Þorgrímur did only have white painting on him, maybe he was just chestnut  No all the pinto will come, and even tho they want be colorful they have at least 1.prize father 







18. may 2009.
First foal is born  A bit earlier than we expected, as it´s not yet 11.months since the mares meet the stallions. I´m almost sure it´s a marefoal, which is what we had hoped for finally getting mare by Móna. The color is chestnut, but I wonder if  the foal have socks, it´s feets seems pretty light, but time will tell. The father of the foal is Þorgrímur frá Litlalandi.

We have decided that the special offer(-15%) at the geldings price will be open  all may!!!

Next flight to Billund is planed 12.june. Flight to Norrkjöping  is planed  sometime in june.  And next flight to Liege is either 29.may or 5. june!




5.may 2009.
SPECIAL OFFER; All geldings -15% off their price. Offer ends 15.may!!!

Next flight to Billund will be in late may or early june. And next flight to Liege is planed 15.may. There will be few flights with horses from Iceland over the summertime, so if you planed to import an horse, NOW is the time (or you might have to wait till autum 2009)!!
We expect the first foals after 20.may, and ofcourse I´m very excited. Hope we will have many pintos this year:o)
If you plan to buy an mare from us and want to breed her to stallion of your choice, then we need to know before 1.june, so we can arranged that in time.
We still haven´t decided which stallion we will rent for the mares here at home, but we have been offered many young  and intresting (and  some colorful) stallions with good pedigree. We will decide soon, I will most definatelly inform it here when it is decided!!!

Tvenna is back from training and is very promissing mare, see video by her under "Horses for sale". Assa is in more training now, she is also very promissing. I did plan to breed her to Glymur frá Innri-Skeljabrekku but now I think I have change my mind about that and perhaps rather plan to get her evaluated late this summer or next spring.


24.april 2009.
Finally some words from me c",) There are finally few new photos by the horses, unfortunatelly it´s diffrent between the horses how many photos by each I took, some have just one, but I will take more photos soon. Since in february I see now that Irpa is in foal, but still I´m not totally sure about Auda and Kleopatra, my guess is they are not in foal (just have big old bellies) or give late birth. Unfortunatelly Gnótt (Barri´s daughter) is in foal:( She did go to our naigbours and it seems that the stallion there did get her pregnant throught the fence without them notice it:( It pretty sad as we did send Gnótt in training, and she looked very promissing and after one month it became clear she was in foal, so no more training for her. Now there are 3 mares in training; Tvenna, Assa and Viska and are doing good. We plan to breed Assa (blue dun silver dappel pinto) to Glymur frá Innri-Skeljabrekku(silver dappel), good chance to get great color there:) We have also booked one fee for Huginn frá Haga, but still we haven´t  decide which mare we bring to him. Then we have also right to breed 2 mares to Þristur frá Þorlákshöfn in early season. We still haven´t decide which stallion we will loan to serve our mares here at our farm, but are keeping our eyes open for colorful, promissing and with good pedigree young stallion.........so if you have or know of stallion that might intrest us, please tell us about him! We have been offered several intresting stallions and possibly we take one of those but still keeping our eyes open.







5.february 2009.
I have been trying to see which mares are in foal and who ain´t, Fregn(breed to Gári Auðsholtshjáleiga) and Ungfrú (breed to Kompás Skagaströnd) are sonartested in foal but Orka (breed to Kjarni Auðholshjáleiga)was sonartested without foal:( We didn´t sonartested the other mares but it looks like both mares (Blekking and Hrafntinna) breed to Þristur frá Þorlákshöfn are in foal. And from the mares who were breed to Þorgímur frá Litlalandi it looks to me like; Djásn, Askja and Gæska ain´t in foal, and then I´m still not sure about Irpa, Kleópatra and Auda. But I think the other mares are in foal. But I could ofcourse be wrong about some of the mares, time will just tell:o)

I have booked 3 fees for summer 2009 to Glymur frá Innri-Skeljabrekku, one for myself and two for customers who own mares at our place and want them to be breed to a stallion before exported.
Then I probably try to get an fee to Huginn frá Haga for myself, but I haven´t decide more stallions. We can also breed 2 mares to Þristur frá Þorlákshöfn, but still I don´t know where he will stay summer 2009 or which season we get.

There are still some of you (very few tho ;o) who haven´t paid for the staying for your horse(s). Please contact us to fix this.







15.january 2009.
I apologize for not answering many mails last weeks. Also  I haven´t taken any new photos by the horses, I know many of you are waiting to see their horse(s)! Last couple of weeks I had an bad flu and just unable to do anything, except ofcourse I go and feed the horses every day and then all the energy is just gone  But this will hopefully change soon as I FINALLY did go and see a doctor yesterday and got the results that I had Bronchitis and have now got some medicine about this. But I already, after just 20 times since since I started to take the medicine, started to feel a little better. I could even sleep for few hours last night
But at least I haven´t forgot about answering you and I hope that nobody have got mad at me for not answering  No, you are all so wonderful!
I promise that when I starting to feel better I will put in some new photos for you, it also making me mad just not been able to stay outside with the horses, just listening to them eat ( I just love that sound). Also showing the foals who are inside more attention, they all seems very courious and calm in nature.
My best to you all,
Gudrun.

SPECIAL OFFER!! Buy  trained/green broken gelding and get a 2008 stallionfoal for FREE  in january!



1.january 2009!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
I wish you all an Happy New Year and thank you for the year 2008. I hope you all had an lovely Christmastime and that the year 2009 will bring you happiness and luck.The year 2008 have been quite strange year, the financial crisis, drop of the icelandic krona and all the corruption in the icelandic buisness that we are seeing every day now.
 
But this year have also been good, the horsesale have been good, we had many lovely foals. Ofcourse it´s sometimes hard to see the horses go, and perhaps never seeing them again, but with certainty that they will have nice new homes easies the regret of letting them go. That is why it means a LOT for us the hear from the buyers and see photos from the horses at their new homes, we thank you all for keeping in touch and keeping us informed about how the horses are doing. It REALLY mean us a lot!!

We bought 1. sharehold in a stallion prospect; Kapall frá Kommu born 2008. Kapall is black pinto son of Álfur frá Selfossi and Kjarnorka frá Kommu (also dam of Kappi and Kaspar frá Kommu). The shares are 60 and are all sold. It will be intresting to see how he devolped in the coming years and then how he will be when he start in training ( year 2012)! Hopefully he future will be bright as stallion and his offsprings in the future awesome:o) See photos by Kapall and his family here.

This summer we did breed 28 mares.  But Drottning is sold and already gone to Sweden and Huld is also sold but will stay for longer. Orka was sonartested without foal from Kjarni frá Auðsholtshjáleiga:( So we can mostly expect 25 foals next year, but it´s likely that they ain´t all in foal, so I guess 20-23 foals next summer!
We did use intresting stallions. Most of the mares were breed to Þorgímur frá Litlalandi, very promissing cheatnut pinto stallion. We Þorgrímur became very good friends last summer while he stayed at our farm, he was so nice carakter and very beautiful. He have already got 1.prize for comformation and fine score for riding for an 4.year old. But I´m very hopeful he will get higher scores spring/summer 2009.
We did also breed Fregn (Gustur´s daughter) to Gári frá Auðsholthjáleigu, and she is sonartested in foal:) Ungfrú (Sproti´s daughter)was breed to the young stallion prospect Kompás frá Skagaströnd (son of Hágangur frá Narfastöðum and Sunna frá Akranesi, also mother of Kvistur and  Þjóð frá Skagaströnd). And Ungfrú is in foal:)
Then we ofcourse breed 2 mares to "our" Þristur frá Þorlákshöfn, Blekking (Örvar´s daughter) and Hrafntinna (Fjalla-Eyvindur´s daughter).

I will take first 2009 horse photos soon, I know many of you who still owns a horse at our place are waiting for new photos!
All of you who have not been in contakt to us lately please write us!!

Our best,
Guðrún and family.

PS. We need a stallion for a loan summer 2009, so if you know of any beautiful young stallion with very good pedigree and good color (most wanted are; silver dappel, pinto, splash, dun....) please write to us and tell us about him!! He must be at least 2 years old, preferbly 3 years or older.
gh72@emax.is

Few stallions and were they will serve mares summer 2009!

Video by Þorgímur frá Litlalandi, taken spring 2008 when he was only 4.years old!!


10.desember 2008.
Hi.
There are finally some new/recent photos by the horses. All the horses have now come down from the montain except Auda and her foal, Stássa and her foal, Gnótt and Brynja. But we see them from far every day, so they are okey. But they hopefully come home soon. Now we have 3 horses in training, they are Eldur and Skálmar who were already inridden last spring, and then Assa was handled for the first time and is doing very well, very easy. I intend to keep  Assa  as mine for breeding in the future:o) We will go seeing them all soon and then I hopefully get some photos by them.
Aska (my black roan yearling) is home, we had not seen her all summer, or at least for a long time, so I was very glad that she was found in my naigbour herd.
Bjarmi and Blævar did go to Norway last saturday and Drottning will go on the 20.des to Sweden. The horsesale is going quite well, but still few foals left who need new  homes. Anyone???
Well, the Christmas is coming soon and I hope you all have Merry Christmas and that the New Year will bring you luck!!

Here are two cute Christmas photos (not mine).
My best to you all,
Gudrun.






22.okt.2008.
It´s snow all over, so beautiful. Yesterday we did go and see how Sveigur was doing, he is in training now, and it is going pretty well. He is an carakter and looks very well under rider. The trainer did ride him for us even tho Sveigur was just with normal horseshoes on and it was  pretty slippery for him, but he did well anyway. He is getting better every day, and I´m gone see him again early november, then I will decide if he will continue the training or will have some rest. 





30. September 2008.
We have change the price by our horses into Euros (EUR) and Danish krona (DKK). As the icelandic krona is changing almost every day, so we think it´s more reliable to use diffrent currency to price our horses. If you have any questions about this changes, just ask me! And I also remind you to use the currency converter to see how much it is in your currency!

Til íslenskra kaupanda: Við höfum breytt verði á hrossunum okkar í Evrur og danskar krónur. Þið getið notað gengisbreytir til að reikna út verð í íslenskar krónur, og svo bara að hafa samband.

Ungfrú is back home from the stallion Kompás frá Skagaströnd, and she is in foal Kompás will hopefully become an star in the future!!


16.september 2008.
  Þorgrímur have now gone to his home, he will be missed both by me and his "girlfriends" this summer! I think he did enjoy his stay a lot, plenty of mares to serve
I´m sure he will do great next summer in evaluation, really beautiful and very nice carakter! Thanks to his owners for renting him to us this summer.

We did go to Skrapatungurétt (horse gathering), both by saturday and again on sunday. It´s always nice to see the horses coming down from their summer stay at the montains and their owners excitement to see their horse(s) again  And ofcourse see many friends and colleagues.
Ofcourse I took some photos, mostly on saturday when the horses came down. And these photos can be found in HERE 
The rest of the storm Ike is now going over Iceland, and it has started to blow now, more and more every hour.
Take care!!
Our best to you all.

10.september 2008.
We had an lovely weather last weeks, but it´s very opvious that the fall has come! Inviroment is getting into it´s many lovely colors of the fall, horses are starting to get their wintercoat, and are fat:o) The fall is one of mine favourite time!
Blekking and Hrafntinna are back home from beign breeded to Þristur frá Þorlákshöfn. We still don´t know if they are in foal as we decided not to sonartest them, time will just tell! Orka and her foal Slemma are back home from beign breed to Kjarni frá Auðsholthjáleiga, unfortunatelly she was sonartested without foal:( But Kjarni was serving the mares till the day they were tested, so it´s an TINY chance that Orka got pregnant the last days she spent with Kjarni! Ungfrú is still with Kompás, will probably be home soon.
There are finally some new/resent photos by all the 2008 foals, see their albums!!

Þorgrímur frá Litlalandi welcome me to his herd! Þorgímur always come to me when he see I´m coming, really nice carakter.


21.august 2008.
Bliki frá Skeggsstöðum, chestnut pinto we sold as foal 2006! His owner did send us this photo by this big and handsome young gelding.  It is always nice to hear about the horses we have sold and to see photo(s) by them! So please be free to send us photo(s) and some news For more photos by sold horses (both while they were still at our farm and at their new homes!) in here



14.august 2008.

And strange things have happen to Leista´s foal! He was just chestnut but now he suddenly got star I had notice that he had much curl in his forehead and it seems that it have cover over his star and didn´t show until he had lost his birthcoat! But he is just even cuter, so this is just great I think the name Sveipur(Curl) will be his name(at least for now)!

Yesterday we had an call from our naigbour! He didn´t find his mares and the STALLION and the gate between his land and our land was half open!  Were all our youngsters are during the summer So he looked for his horses and found them and many of our horses together!! Damn...as we thought the stallion had been in all our youngsters and that we would have to get an vet to end all possible pregnancy!! But when all the horses were back home from the montain.....there was no stallion in the herd!!! So were could he be? We were ofcouse relifed that he was not with our youngsters but something must had happen to him, as he wasn´t with his herd. Few hour later we got an call from our naigbour, he had found the stallion...DEAD, stuck in the fence He was at our naigbour side of the fence, so he never reach to our horses!! Poor thing, he was one of the youngest offsprings after Oddur frá Selfossi. Big loss for our naigbours!!

We also got better call couple of days ago!! Fregn is now pregnant after Gári and we will go get her back home tomorrow!

Now the Landsmót is over and our last mares to be breeded this summer have meet their stallion. Blekking and Hrafntinna are now in an fence with Þristur frá Þorlákshöfn (he was no. 10 in stallions 7.years and older at Landsmót). Yesterday Fregn did go to Gýgjarhóll were she will meet the stallion Gári frá Auðsholtshjáleiga he was no. 1 in 1.prize for offsprings at Landsmót). Orka will go to Kjarni frá Auðsholtshjáleiga (he was no. 6 in 5.years stallions at Landsmót) in few hours! Þorgrímur frá Litlalandi (the stallion who is serving his mares at our farm) have got 23 mares! His FULL sister, Kría frá Litlalandi, was no. 2 in 5.years old mares at Landsmót. And Ungfrú is still in fence by the young stallion Kompás frá Skagaströnd (2.years old son of Hágangur frá Narfastöðum and Sunna frá Akranesi). His halfbrother Kvistur frá Skagaströnd (same mother) did get no.2 in 5.years old stallions!
So the results after Landsmót have made us even more excited for the summer 2009! In all we breed 28 mares this summer and hopefully most of them will get pregnant and give birth to beautiful foals next spring/summer:o)

Oldest offsprings after Fálki frá Geirshlíð were trained this spring and came out very promissing and easy in training. Of these two mares (his only offsprings who are 4.years old) one of them was very good after little training and was supposed to be evaluated this spring but got hurt and couln´t continue the training but the owner thinks she is getting better and hopefully she will be evaluated late summer instead!!
His offsprings we did got this summer by him are beautiful, calm and courious, good gaited, many of them did show all gaits the first days after birth but most of them trot and tölt mostly now, with good movements.
Karri´s ofssprings are also very beautiful, slim comformation with raised neck. Many of them also did shown all gaits first days after birth, so I believe they are 5.gaited even tho Karri is 4.gaited. Unfortunatelly Karri wasn´t evaluated again this spring but we hope he will be, he did already got 1.prize for comformtion (when 4.years old), he was very easy in all handling and temperment was excellent, he did also shown us beautiful trot under him self. Anyway we are happy with our 2008 foals and are sure many of them will be good in the future!
