Colt Foal for Banderra - 06 May 2011
Bandera had a colt foal on the 5th May. We have named him Bartilo. He has a dorsal stripe so he might be dun but will probably go grey. He will be registered as a PRE.

As Reyes will be off soon, we have been doing some loading practice. The 1st day he had a good look but could not be persuaded to go up the ramp. The 2nd day we coaxed him up by lifting his foot on the ramp. The 3rd day he was leading in behind his mum, no trouble.
We parked the lorry facing downhill as our lorry has a steep ramp.
Banderra has a beautiful chocolate dun colt foal. He will probably go black and doesn’t have a white hair on him!!
Sonador and Henrietta have been weaned from their Mum’s. Everyone is very chilled and unbothered as we have been training for this day for some weeks now.
Sonador is well developed and strong and he went out in the field for the first time today.
We gave hime an hour to get his bearings then turned out Henrietta and Cheyenne. It is a large field but they stayed together.
Bandera XVII had her foal mid morning on the 1st May.
He is a strapping colt. A Pure PRE Andalusian by our stallion Oyon.
We have named him Sonador, which means dreamer.
