The Lea x A Touch of Glory colt has the cutest fuzzy ears and such a sweet face. And what a treat to see the great Beholder's new colt. Not sure, but he might have just a few white hairs in the center of his forehead. Seems like it's going to be a really special foaling season this year.

Beholder’s foal was the only one I wanted to see all year! Life completed. I ❤️ her.

Looks a bit like protective mom Sinhalite is giving the photographer a little 'that's close enough' side eye. ;) :P

Her baby is so cute. Mom does seem to be saying, "Not so close there, bud."

In addition to being very cute, the Chrome baby is a snuggler!

Appears he's a good-sized boy. I can't wait to see what he looks like standing. :D

Since I've never had the distinct honor...

Does a newborn foal have the equivalent of "puppy breath" or that "new baby" smell? I like to think its like puppy mixed with fresh hay.

@bare it all, good question. Hopefully someone here knows the answer. :)

Throwing in another question...is there a good source online to find reports of live births? I tried The Jockey Club, but seems you have to be a member to see those reports.

Neither have I, but my husband has, and he says, yes they do have the equivalent of "puppy breath". They are just so adorable, I love looking at all these baby pictures. :D

Did see these posted so I thought I would add them, from the Spendthrift Facebook page, Beholder and her Uncle Mo colt. So cute.
