24th April - What a couple of days. Annabel had an accident in the field which has left her a bit battered and bruised. She is fine but will be out of service for a few days.
Betty foaled twins on the 22nd by Xcalibur. Sadly the colt was stillborn. We have been advised that the surviving filly is a good size for a twin and all her tests have come back with positive results. We are very thankful that both Betty and her filly appear to be doing well and are praying this continues. We have named her Xing Xing which means Twin Stars after herself and her brother.
