Rowberton Messalina and her colt foal Lambrigg Mozambique went to the Northern show today, and both came home with 1st place rosettes - Excellent news yes ? Well, apart from the fact that there was no competition....where is everybody ? Last time we competed a foal at the Northern show it was with Starburst ( now dam to both Solaris and Starbuck ), she won her class, which if memory serves had 17 or so other foals in it on the day.
Still, there is much to be taken away from today. The judge had some very complimentary things to say and Bob has gained valuable experience which will stand him in good stead for years to come. Hopefully there will be a nice photo of the pair of them too because even if I say so myself they both looked beautiful, Messy scrubs up surprisingly well for a 16 year old broodmare !
