    Anyone heard anything about Lookin At Lucky? I'm hoping like the dickens I'm wrong, but I gotta bad feeling about him.

    I'm curious if any mares have been covered by Indy and confirmed yet.

    Send her back again normally. She'd hopefully have had her reproductive check before being bred and ok'd so either wait for the next heat, or give her a shot and short cycle her back in, palpate and scan for breedable follicle and try again.

    Perhaps CC or TBird or one of the others will jump in with answers as well.

    Your answer is correct. You just try again when she has a breedable follicle, whether it was a natural cycle or she was given progestrone to speed up the process.
    Nobody said giving Kirstie Alley a colonic would be easy.

    I think you'd have better luck giving Prostaglandin (Lutylase), commonly referred to as "short-cycling." Progesterone would slow the process down.

    What's interesting about the Lute is that it's used to speed up the conception (cycling) process, as well as end an early pregnancy.

    My mare is in foal on one cover to Tale Of Ekati. We missed on her last year, so I'm pretty happy.

    I also saw Cool Coal Man had some mares in foal, but now I cant find where I read it. Probably Thoroughbred Times.
