The more I see this filly (out my window every day) the more I like what I see.
A Rocknroll Dance x The Blue Lotus yearling filly.

After her shower, looking gorgeous.
“Iris”, as we call her, moves easily, naturally and she has attitude but manners. She is starting to mature and understand things.
Last weekend, we brought the mums in from other paddocks for a wash, and then their yearling offspring at our home paddocks, also for a wash and brush. Lots of winter hair was shed, lots of enjoyment under the shower!
Below: The Blue Beat – finally got a registered name for this filly, and it is a cracker! The Blue Beat, the rock n roll song made famous in Australasia by our own wonderful Dinah Lee. “Come on and do the blue beat, the blue beat, and you’ll never be blue!” Hey, if you’re my age you will remember bopping around the living room to this song.
