It's a Girl!



Memorial Day brought us a beautiful surprise - a gorgeous filly!  This little girl is the pride and joy of first time mama, DB Grey Legs (Julilah) owned by the Gray family, friends of (and boarders of) Desert Bred Arabians.  Her sire is Aswad Khayal (pictured below).  Her dam has a tail female line of Hamdani (to Sindidah).











At first she was a bit camera shy.....













But then she agreed to pose, with mom close by for comfort.   A pretty black bay with a very sweet face :).  No official name yet, but the unofficial barn name is Roxie, in honor of Roxie, one of our very hard working helpers who was the first to greet her in this world.  Welcome Roxie!


Julilah has proven to be quite a performance athlete and was shown extensively by her junior owner/handler Lindsey Gray in Hunter classes, including a trip to Nationals.  And just for fun, they competed on the endurance trails as well.  We're looking forward to Julilah junior following her mama's hoofprints!
