Orlando's first-born


Her Majesty delivered a fine filly last night. Her fifth foal. A 'U' and since her Majesty is the product of two earlier Us 22 years have gone by since both her maternal grandparents were born. [The French don't use W, X, Y or Z]

Laura reports: Dutchess has had some gear on and so far shown very good manners. She's a speedy and very strong type of horse. The plan, if she's good enough (which she will be I think!) is to race her next May (2009) in the Sales Series races and then maybe go to Aussie for a 2 year old Australasian championship she was entered for as a foal. That will be in July. You never know " On doit rever et experer "

Indeed... and I hope Laura will be there to help make all this happen
