It's a Grey Colt 
In my defence I have 3am daylight, 3 nights of very little sleep and a very quick glance what navel was iodined and swift exit from stable to allow Mare and foal bonding :)
I know Genevieve and Georgina couldn't care less what sex this foal was
 Georgina even appeared slightly happier when I had to break the news that she was in fact a he 
Very English Libby :) Silvern Sheena (Silvern Sceptre x Crystal Sheen) is 99.06% Crabbet, 100% old English
Silvern Surprise is by Imad out of Silvern Princess.

| Congratulations - look forward to pix! You are not alone in changing sex overnight- my excuse was low level lighting, sleep deprivation and excitement! And I know someone else who has done the same this year so you are definitely not alone! |

we would have liked a filly,however a colt is what we did not dare dream of we are over the moon,if we had a choice we would have liked a colt can not believe how lucky we are a huge thank you to alecia for making this all happen the Valletta prefix lives on in memory of all the super valletta horses we were left by the late sigrid coombs,the last one went this year valletta hunters moon
only a couple of weeks ago silvern surprise qualified for HOYS beating many top stallions including mine into 2nd place,must have been the first time i was happy to be beaten |

Sorry Georgina,  I'm afraid nearly everything has a daft name here 
Although I do really like Nabo...

He has to be Wills - because he is a prince but also because Alicia failed to see his appendage!!!!
i am going to try to upload pics for everyone but have no clue how to so help would be gratefully received - do I have to put them on Flickr or somewhere 1st?

| So delighted to hear the Valletta name lives on. I sobbed reading about Magic and Sox, knew them both as babies (especially Magic). Bobbi did a great job with these guys - though all her horses were so well tempered and kind. I used to ride Crispin, the Stallion of Valletta House in Fritham (Hunters Song - Sire to Valletta Madrigal and Hunters Moon). I have spent ages trying to trace a bloodline - but it is harder than you might think! Please.... I see this post is a little old - but is it likely that this young chap will be at stud in the future? Would love a Crispin Grandson, my daughter rides now and though only 10 what an opportunity for us both. Thrilled for you and thank you for making it possible - Bobbi would burst with pride :-) |
