For those interested Makybe Diva has had a colt this morning.
She foaled down at 3.15am Friday at Coolmore Stud.
Peter O’Brien said the bay colt, by English Derby winner Galileo, was doing well as was the mother.
"He is a lovely colt with a white face and two white feet."
Makybe Diva won three successive Melbourne Cups from 2003 to 2005 and is Australasia’s greatest stakes earner with more than A$14.5 million prizemoney.
Unfortunately there are now rumours circulating at 2am Sydney time that all is not well. So fingers crossed that the colt is OK.
Ouija Board is currently back at Stanley House Stud and is in foal to Kingmambo.
Hee hee snap
Let’s hope that this colt turns out to be better than Sunline’s first colt, Sunstrike.
Sunline put everything she had in to racing and I doubt she will ever throw anything worthwhile. I don’t think the really really top mares do. (Well they don’t down under
)Well no news is good news – the colt is apparently still standing.
Unfortunately he is now in a tug of war with the owners who are going through a multi million $ divorce settlement 
Mrs Diva has been offered $70M but is holding out for more………….. and the colt is up for grabs 
Yayy here’s the little fellow and he’s looking as healthy as…
All the photies are here:

mark prescott will be hoping it is heading his way so he can enter it in three races over 5 furlongs at wolves…
Good grief
he’ll need to get his wallet out, they already have a A$3 Million price tag on his head IF he goes through the sales! In fairness to Sunstrike (Rock Of Gibraltar filly); she only ran once as a 2YO in May. Finished last on heavy ground at Pukekohe. Too early to be writing off her chances after only one run.
Gorgeous foal. I want to take him home, but I better start saving up with a price tag like that!!
I have no maternal instincts, until I see thoroughbred foals. I will definitely choose breeding racehorses over having children anyday!!

LOL!! Foals are cuter, smell better, don’t disturb you several times a night and are probably cheaper!!
*EDIT*
A grin that says "I’m a cheeky little *******". Eyes that say "Are you looking at me, punk?"
that foal is gorgeous he looks a good size just by looking at him sitting down
im going to do a course at the national stud i noticed there was a good few mares in foal to some pretty decent stallions, galileo being one of them! although he doesnt stand there, i also recall ones being in foal to diktat, dubawi and grand slam!
i remember a yearling in the field by one cool cat, wont be long until he’s all bought and ready to be a little racehorse *fingers crossed*
hope the foal grows up nice and healthily with no ailments or problems
