Murthwaite Chanthal's second foal arrived on 14 June 2007. No one was home to see the foaling as we didn't expect it until the end of June. By the time we arrived home, the filly was up, nursing, and trotting alongside Chanthal. The foaling took place in the same pasture as the stallion, BroughHill Hadrian's Wall, and two other mares with foals. I'd had Chanthal in the pasture to help keep Hadrian in line with the other foals while breeding took place.

Clarabel is a bay filly with no white markings. Her personality is sweet and soft. Our son named her as we had Anne a few years earlier, and being a train fan, Thomas the Tank engine pulls two coaches, Anne (spelled Annie) and Clarabel. She is very easy going and is a pleasure to visit with in the pasture.

Her basic training has started. She ties well, leads well and has trailered both loose and tied. Everyone who meets her seems to want to take her home, she's so sweet.

She attended her first show and behaved well. She took 6th at the 2008 Brookside Mountain and Moorland Show for 3 and under.
