Colt born March 19, 2025: Vitruvius STG
Evie our recipient mare carried Barcelona's Heartbreaker baby and delivered a huge magnificent colt early in the morning hours. His barn name is Virgil, and he is so kind and sweet.. truly a wonderful soul this boy. He will be grey with some bling to boot. He's so athletic and agile. I can't wait to see this boys future career with his owner. |

RIP SLF Chablis On Wednesday July 5 we made the heartbreaking decision to lay our 'perfect Pearl' to rest. Pearl was suffering from horrible fast growing melanomas... Everywhere. Over the past few years we had had several consults from different equine hospitals with no solution other than to ways to keep her comfortable. She was becoming increasingly less comfortable, and it was very evident that her passing was imminent. Pearl let me know that she was very ready to wear her wings over the rainbow bridge. Our wonderful veterinarian made sure Pearl's passing was quick and painless. Pearl had a wonderful career, and retirement. She loved being a mother above all else. Even in retirement I could put a saddle on her to hack around with a baby following and she was always 'show ring perfect' to ride. |
|
|
Before becoming a broodmare Pearl was Susan Lockner's partner in the show ring, showing as SLF Chablis. After her retirement from sport Pearl had four beautiful foals for us; 2020 Prada Z, 2021 Roxbury, 2022 STG Chevalier en Satin Blanc, and 2023 Tanqueray STG.
Pearl was the kindest, purest soul I have ever known. Looking into her big, kind eyes you could just feel it. I can't really describe it, but if you had the privilege to know her, you would understand. Our perfect Pearl was an angel on loan from heaven, and I am so very grateful to Susan for giving us the honor of owning her and above all else, the privilege of loving her . |

RIP Uwho
On Friday May 3rd we lost a member of our family, our matriarch , the queen.. my beloved Uwho. She made my dreams of becoming a breeder come true. Uwho was the daughter of Iron Spring farm's legendary stallion Consul, her dam's sire Argus is the only stallion in the world that successfully performed in Grand Prix jumping and in international dressage.

Uwho was a wonderful mother who gave me 4 beautiful foals. 2017 Marvelest, 2018 Ngagement, 2020 Phancy This, 2017 STG Balthazar. Uwho was my favorite ride and reminded me so much of my beloved Lucy when I had the privilege to ride her. She was fearless and brave on the trails, uphill and forward thinking. I share this loss with my husband and with my dear friend Regina who loved her as much as we did. There is a void here on our farm and I am heartbroken. |
