It's a Girl!! Bet you can't do this with YOUR legs! "Miracle" was trying to figure out how to use her long legs when we snapped the photo. Proud owner Natalie Ippolito helped the little bay filly to her feet soon afterwards. She was born on March 5 to Jacks Sizzlin Review "Jackie." Besides the dramatic blaze, she has one hind stocking. Check the tab Face's Foals on this website, then look under 2008, to see photos of Miracle as she grows up.
Natalie, who lives about 5 miles from CHHR, made record time getting to the ranch after TJ called her about 10 PM on March 5 saying the birth was underway. We call this photo "Foal Abuse" and teasingly tell owner Natalie that it is proof positive that she was trying to either scalp Miracle, or pull her ears off. Actually, it's a photo of Nat drying Miracle soon after her birth. The photo made us laugh.
