I got Brassy Halloween, 2005, as a companion for Mouse. She is a 16hh,
chestnut Thoroughbred mare registered as "Brass Tactics". Once upon a
time, Brassy was a racehorse, but she didn't do overly well, so she was
retired as a riding horse, and as a broodmare. Brassy is an incredibly
sweet mare, but she does had difficulty holding her weight during the summer
months. Because I suspect that her issues arise from a combination of
sugar intolerance, and hormone-related muscle atrophy, I did try to have
her bred in 2006, but unfortunately, she did not catch. So for now, I
will work on getting her weight up for winter (which, ironically, is the only
time she gets fat!).
Rogue is Brassy's 2005 colt, whom I bought in January, 2006. Rogues
registered name is "Highland Rebel", since he belongs to Highland Clover Farm,
and his sire's name is Rebmec. He is the same colour as Brassy (bright
orange, I mean, chestnut), and should finish off just as tall as she is.
He has a really sweet temperament, and very nice conformation. So far,
no issues with him, and I hope to keep it that way, as Rogue has a bright
future ahead of him.
