Magni had a great workout today
We've had trouble with him refusing to trot his dressage tests so I've been hiring time at the riding school and working him in the big outdoor space and in the arenas. Not our best trot workout but by the time we finished he was giving me some of the best walk to trot transitions I've ever had
No idea if he'll show them to me on Sunday of course.... he'll probably forget
Anyway, back with the mares Varda has frozen time and Taff is a typical maiden. Kirra has entered the race with an udder, a huge oedema in front of it, a low belly, a very relaxed back end and a long vulva that is beginning to get red on the inside.
Kirra's breeder says she's been very irregular with her pre foaling signs, one year she did nothing! Her poos are still normal and her milk is clear and barely tacky so I'm going to say not tonight. Her "rough" day 320 is the 12th but that was when we noticed she was in season, Shadow is a bit eager to cover the mares so easily could have got her earlier and Kirra seems to have long seasons.
We won't put the alarm on tonight but tomorrow the race is on to finish her yard and shelter so she can move in! Spesh will live with her during the day and come out at night.
