forward to next year to see her continue to develop!
Wishing you all a Happy Holiday season!

From
Robin Ginn:
Amazing
Grace GF received a 47 and Class I at the inspection.
She received a 9 on Type with comments “light, feminine,
well proportioned, tall legged”, a 9 on Head, Neck and
Body with comments “beautiful head, well formed set neck,
well developed shoulder, sloping croup. She received and 8
on legs and 7’s on her gaits. Her final comments were “Well
developed. Modern sport type. Could be more supple in movement.” I
am so proud of her!
The Royston, GA inspection bode well for Amorex. Both of his fillies shown
were class I fillies.
I have attached a photo from the time frame around the inspection. She
is a furball now and pictures are not the most attractive.
I hope you have a wonderful Christmas and happy holiday season!
Best to you,
Robin Ginn

Cohen and Cathy Rivers and Ewa and Marek Lichota. Could not

Bam's First Show
Hi Mary,
It's safe to say that Bam is going
to need to move up a level or 3! The next show or two he'll do
the 3'-
3'3''
class and then will most likely move up to 3'6'' by the end of
the summer...we're going to have a great time jumping big fences
:)

Amorella
Hi Mary,
I wanted to let you know that my two year old Amorex/Anytime Pleasure filly
won the 2-year old filly class at the June 14th Breed Show at Ten Broeck
Farm in MA and also qualified for the USDF Breeders Championship New England
series at NEDA this fall! I'm so thrilled with her and she has been such
a joy for this past two years! I'm planning on taking her to one more breed
show in August and I would love to take her to the SWANA inspection but
the closest one is in MD so it's a long haul. Enclosing a few pictures,
they are not the best but I wanted to pass on.
All the best!

News
Flash: Hi
Mary,
I took my 2-year old Amorex filly Amorella to the SWANA inspection in Saco,
Maine last week. We had a wonderful time and Ella was awarded 1st class and
with 47 points was the highest scoring horse at this site! She just keeps amazing
me. If I had the correct membership with USDF (I was a GMO member at the beginning
of the season before I became a participating member) she could have qualified
for a Year End Award, she would currently have been in 5th place! It's always
next year...:-)
All the best,
Kristina Almqvist |

Hi Mary.
We welcomed filly number two this morning. Gaea delivered a beautiful
big filly. She's as big as Ambrielle - who is now three weeks old.
Both Gaea and filly are doing great. We haven't decided on her name
for certain but Phoebe is a leading candidate. Gaea is from ancient mythology
and as the story goes she had a daughter named Phoebe.
It is going to be wonderful to watch the two half-sisters grow up
together. Ambrielle is quite the ham. She loves attention and likes
to be the center of it just like her mom Callie. We can't wait to
see the two fillies playing together in the pasture.
Thanks again for helping with our decision to breed.
These are beautiful filly's from two very different mares.
Best regards,
Diane McNelis

Neemo
2009 SWB colt
Amorex/Nadiwa
Hello Mary!
Didja get the photos? I picked a name for him today....It's available
with all the registries as of today and I found it on a Swedish
baby name site as well so seems ok....OK, here goes, "Neemo".
(wait, I have a vision of a little striped cartoon fish....) Anyway
that's it. My husband says he likes my first impulse of Noodles
and is going to keep calling him that. Great. So little Noodles,
mmm, I mean Neemo, is doing grand and the mare is doing well also.
He is very calm, inquisitive and sturdily built. Lovely. At 3 hours
old was cantering quietly around a 12x16 stall!

Mary,
Yesterday morning I walked out to clean stalls at 10:30 am
and found this surprise waiting for me out on one of the paddock
shelters! Crystal
gave birth to a very feminine chestnut filly with 3 tall socks, a broad
blaze and tons of blond highlights. She has an amazingly calm temperament
(for a redhead!) and beautiful light rhythmic canter!! When she was standing
for her baby shots this morning, she did the perfect piaffe without putting
any pressure on my arms!! She is going to be fun to watch develop. Can’t
wait to take her to inspection and see what the judges make of her. I
am confident that Amorex has given us another Class 1 foal!!
Her name is
Arpegio because of her perfect timing and rhythm. Her nicknames…so
far….are Peg, Princess Peg and Peglet!!
All is well
and she is proving to be a complete sweetie!!! She has Amorex’s
calm disposition, bless him!

It's
a Girl!!!!
Hi Mary-
Great news! My mare Phoenix delivered a BIG, healthy filly at 6:30 this
morning with no complications. Mama and baby are doing great. We will name
her "Anticipation". She is a beauty! I'll send pics later on
today. She was up nursing within 45 minutes and has been showing us her
canter half pass in the stall along with other upper level movements that
she is still perfecting.
I couldn't be happier! Give Amorex a carrot for me and tell him thank you.
Kathleen
