And Marlowe makes 4!
We all waited a long time for this foal since Gypsy, his dam, has never been able to conceive till now! Well, he finally arrived mid-evening May 4, 2010 and he now holds the distinction of being Cabinwood’s smallest born foal! Measured still with his rubber hoof booties on he was a whopping 18 3/4″ tall! He’s as cute as he can be but we are still not sure of his color…first he looked dark, then as he dried off he was more of a gray/lbrown/sorrel color with some stripes on his legs here and there! Despite his small and wobbly stature, he was up in a flash and nursing great in a very short time!
J. Marlowe is named after the John Wayne character Col. John Marlowe from his 1959 movie The Horse Soldiers.
