First Foal for Valachi Downs

Tara Madgwick - Thursday July 30

The foals are starting to come not only in Australia, but also New Zealand with Valachi Downs tweeting the arrival of their first foal of the season.
 




An imported daughter of Rip Van Winkle, Miss Olive (IRE) was exported in foal to Kingman in her first season at stud and the resulting foal from that mating is promising three year-old colt Kurt, who was second at Avondale on July 22 after a long spell.
