An update on Nananta, turns out she's now with an Aunt of a friend of mine (small world!) and is living out her days on a farm with a shire and a retired pony for company- so a happy ending for her
Sorry sue been so busy yes lanabanana is correct its from robbie from 2000 sale its the only pic they could find also her scars seem to have come from living in a very large broodmare herd so not from barbed wire like i previously thought , you can see on her near fore a large scar thats one of them but has many on her back legs ! poor girl
I have a mare bred at Tersk 1996 exported to holland sale 97 or 98 with extensive bi-lateral flank and hindquarter scarring. Co-incidence? Due to the extensiveness of her injuries I've been peeling the layers back for 3 years now to hopefully get to the root and get her fixed as best as possible. It's likely she sustained a fracture to the base of her spine when she got all that scarring too. And nothing to do with living in a herd for my girl or this poor girl I fear. I do have a theory.
So pleased to have an update on this very important mare. Such a shame when things go bad. Look forward to more updates. . Thought you might all like to see how many foals this wonderful mare had whilst in Russia.
