Omey Aurora

Omey was an old fashioned chunky type who has produced several successful foals, she was a mare many admired. A mare we very sadly lost foaling in 2025, only bought the year previously we didn't have an opportunity to have any foals from her so a quick last minute decision to embark into ICSI and embryo transfer was on the cards. With massive thanks to the team at Twemlows they managed to create 3 embryos by Dooneen Royal Archie. The first transfer was successful and is due July 2026.
