We were saddened to hear from Laura of the Chamfron Stud of the recent demise of Lizzie of Larchmont at the age of 26 years. Lizzie was the one that got us started in Appaloosas . We purchased her from Joyce Nutland in foal to Amazing Blue and got Mannog April Blues. We bred a couple more foals from her and then sold her with her daughter Mannog Ruby Tuesday to Lesley of the Tresaison Stud - who put her with Dances with Wolves. From there Lizzie went to Laura who , despite all her best efforts, could never get her back in foal and so Lizzie was given a wonderful retirement. Lizzie was a wonderful mare who passed on great conformation and movement and we are proud to have her bloodlines in our stud. Thank you Lizzie. |
