gapvic Posted February 19, 2014 Author Share Posted February 19, 2014 Thanks Caz :D . Her name is Altair and I imported her from Spain nearly five years ago now. She is in foal to my stallion, Aureon LP. Here he is: He's only a baby, these will be his first foals. Can't wait to meet them!! And just because I think she's gorgeous, here is Altair in Spain My link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animal House Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 OMG, he is absolutely stunning! No wonder you are anxious to meet this baby, Mum and Dad are divine! Altair has some lovely movement in that vid, now I'm going to be waiting patiently for pics of this bub when he/she arrives :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gapvic Posted February 19, 2014 Author Share Posted February 19, 2014 Thanks Caz! Esther (the fat dark grey mare in the above pics) is the first one due in early October. Altair and her daughter Ada are not due till November from memory, so we've got a while to wait :) . What Andalusians did you used to work with?

Animal House Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 So a nice long wait while they bake, excellent. :laugh: I worked with Hortelano (Malcolm Barnes) and Martinette (owned by Alice Stainton) at ORS back in the mid 70's. Loooong time ago when I was a youngster, but beautiful horses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that right? Yep, they were very early imports, Martinette was a beautiful boy, very quiet, perfect manners, just a real gentleman.....and Hortelano (Horrie the Horrible as we called him ) would take a piece out of you if he felt like it, and try and kick you on the way out of the stable as well lol)...Malcolm was based out at Narre Warren in the 70's.
