January 1 is the traditional time for foaling season in for Thoroughbred breeders. As baby horses emerge throughout the spring, we’ll be featuring some of the cutest and most notable newborns we see featured on Twitter. Come back every Monday to start your week off right!
This daughter of Frankel and Midday is just as beautiful as she is well-bred. We can’t wait to see what she does when she grows up!
