To celebrate the start of the 2017 season, we’d like to invite you to Follow a Foal at the National Stud!
This is the beautiful Deire Na Sli, one of the mares at the National Stud who is in foal to the mighty Toronado. She is due any day now and we can’t wait to meet the new addition to her family.
Each week we will post a photo of our star foal on our social media channels so you can gain a unique insight into the first weeks of a foal’s life!
To make sure that you keep up with all of the updates, make sure you follow us on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram.
Or even better, why not visit the Stud for yourself so you can have the chance of meeting them in the flesh!
Our fantastic National Stud Tours will be running Wednesday-Sunday at 11:15am throughout February, and 7 days a week from March to September!
The National Stud is the only commercial stud farm in the country to allow the public behind the scenes, so these tours are the only ones of their kind in the country!
Book your spot now by calling us on 0344 748 9200, or alternatively click here.
