Foaling Report: Named Top Colt at the 2004 RSF Inspection!
Foaling report: EM Acapella had a really dark (black???, dark brown???) colt on 4/2 with NO WHITE ANTWHERE. He is tall, very pretty head and moves with a lot of knee and uphill already, like daddy, Sandro Hit.We have named him Shakespeare RSF (Will for short). Looks like he is shedding out to be a very dark brown. Goodbye dun baby fur! Fabulous mover! Inspection team recommended him as a stallion prospect.
