HE’S OFF THE MARK! 🐴
Little Brose’s first foal has arrived🎉
A stunning bay filly, born on 1 August 2026 at 11.29pm from Gr.3 Cuddle Stakes winner Tinkalicious.
The first foal of Little Brose’s inaugural crop is everything we’d hoped for—quality, strength and plenty of presence.
Welcome to the world, little lady. The journey starts here. ⭐
