Miracle

I'm a very proud parent. I received a call from the owner of my beloved Rachel's filly Pearls of Faith aka Miracle. Miracle was born in 2005 and is quite a remarkable filly. She is being ridden regularly and is thoroughly enjoyed by her new family. At the tender age of 4, it appears that she has already become the mount for the timid, never ridden before riders. She began this new career last weekend. Her owner is thrilled to pieces and I have to admit to the same.

Miracle is a wonderful example of the genuine Irish Draught. It is the temperament, bone and type that make an Irish Draught. She is the epitome of all the traits that I am breeding for in my program. She's traditional - small, short shinned, close coupled, good bone/height ratio with the "how can I please you" attitude. She has the wonderful temperament that Mountain Pearl has consistently passed on to his stock and at four years of age who knows what her future holds or where her true talent lies.

I just had to take a moment and pat myself on the back for breeding Mountain Pearl and Rachel. I also have to kick myself once again for selling her in utero because had I waited until after her birth she would never have left my farm. On the bright side, her new family have agreed to allow me to breed her next year so that I may have a foal out of her (start praying for a bay filly already folks and pray hard).
