2010 Foaling Contest

Post by Meagan D'Amoure »

This contest is relatively easy, and I’m sure you’ll recognize it because it’s pretty much the same thing that Jolene and I did last time; except that there is only 1 horse this time whereas there were 3 last time! But anyways - I have a mare that I own in real life who is scheduled to foal within the next few weeks. So I decided to sponsor a contest to allow members of SIMhorseracing.com to guess the delivery date, time, color, and gender of the foal that my mare is going to have.

So here is the gist of what you have to do:
Review the information that I have provided for you, and make your best guess as to the date that “Star” will deliver, the approximate time in which they deliver, the color of the foal, and the gender of the foal. I reserve the right to ask that you only guess ONCE - however if all the days that have been guessed has passed and “Star” has still not foaled, I will allow everyone to guess again.

I will write down the contestants’ guesses, and I will provide updates and more information on the mare as she arrives closer to her due date. The way that the winner is chosen is first by who guesses the correct date (NOTE THAT MORE THAN ONE PERSON CAN GUESS THE SAME DATE!), then by color/gender, then by time. The person who is the closest to the actual birth of the foal will win 6,000 Game Points, and the person who comes in second will win 3,000 Game Points.

When submitting your guesses:
Please provide the following information (in no particular order):

Date of Delivery:
Time of Delivery: (specify AM or PM!)
Color of Foal:
Gender:

And here’s a little bit about the mare:

Image
Hot With Class - “Star”
6 year old chestnut solid APHA mare
Large blaze.
She is bred to a Chestnut Tobiano stallion named Gentlemen Send Roses
Her first foal was a chestnut tovero APHA colt, sired by the same stallion. He was born on time, at 3:00 PM.
Star was artificially inseminated on 4/23/09-4/24/09.
Star’s due date is scheduled for approximately March 30, 2010.

Fun fact for you old-school people:
I will be leaving for Arkansas from March 12th-15th, and we are scheduled to have bad weather on these days... if you get my drift. ;-)

So there you are! Guess away, be as specific as you would like. As she gets closer to her due date, I’ll give you a little more information of how she’s progressing. Good luck!

For the record, I realize now that that is the most TERRIBLE picture I could put up of her. Her back legs are not that funky looking normally. I guess it was just the way she was standing. :)

Oh, yah, I love this contest. I never enter it because I have absolutely no RL experience. But I love watching it evolve.

Meagan, I think she looks great! Give her a pat from me. :D
