Alex was on foal watch again last Saturday. This time it was Jo’s turn. She’d been up and down all day, her udder was full and she was showing all the classic signs of being close.
Congratulation to both Roz and Johnny whose horses ran in the Bratton Down Point to Point. Johnny’s horse finished 4th. Both horses will hopefully be returning to Bratton in two weeks and you never know we may see a winner.

On Friday night, writes Michelle, we attended the Spanish\Latin night held at Chittlehamholt. This was organised by Charles, Andrea and other member of the village shop committee.
It was a fantastic fun evening with great food and brilliant music, not forgetting the flamenco dancer.

Michelle sent this photo in last Friday showing Harvey out with his mum Double Whiskey.
He will soon get to know Rupert
Charlie and Heydey are sharing the same field and will probably do a bit of child-minding, keeping those boys in order!

After a day in the field showing a lot of discomfort Whiskey looks as though she’s preparing to foal. She has been leaking milk and lying down a lot.
Really working hard now, the light is the reflection from the CCTV monitor.
Double Whiskey just wants to sleep now. It took a lot of effort to deliver that big boy.

Double Whiskey was checked out by the vet earlier today as she has been uncomfortable for a while now. He said the foal was presenting correctly and that she was dilating. So hopefully it won’t be too long.
In the meantime this little chap is going on really well, he’s now up on his pastern, and running around like a little hooligan.

Double Whiskey was due to foal on the 29th April but is still hanging on. She is very uncomfortable, has a large udder and has dropped away behind, so she shouldn’t be that long. We are all keeping an eye on her with the CCTV camera to give her a bit of privacy in the hope that she’ll get on with it.
Jo (at the rear of the picture) is now coming in at night-time as she has started to udder up. If Jo foals before Double Whiskey, does Chelle get another box of Smirnoff from Mark and Helen?
