Red's new brother is named Huey (link to Huey's blog-space can be found in the previous post). Huey is 6years old, is at least 16.3hh, and a bit light on right now ... He arrived at around 2am on the 13th of September, and is going to be HUGE when he fills out. Huey was not a successful racehorse - 13 starts for 2 thirds for a total of $400 prizemoney, hehe. Easy to see what he didn't cut it. He did however manage to break the 2-minute mile just once, hehe, but still finished 8th of 10 in the race. Poor laddy.
Here is a piccy of them meeting for the 1st time - with Red looking terribly impressed, hehe ... He would have much preferred if I bought a mare. Seems he thinks of himself as a bit of a Cassanova - but they'll get along just fine! They'll both be moving in their own 2 horse paddock shortly - and I'm thinking I'll put a nice big oaten hay roundbale in with them. I can hear Red now... 'Mmmmm, food!' ... Such a hard life he has now, eh?!
