ANOIS
Anois
(pronounced "uh-nish") is a fantastic two-year old stallion prospect
who was imported in utero from Ireland. Anois, whose name
means "Now!" in Gaelic, was born to
Parnell's
Nuala
in May 2006. After we had stayed up all night in the foaling stall
watching Nuala, with no baby to show for it, we decided to turn her
out while we cleaned the foaling stall. Nuala immediately laid down
in the adjacent paddock and delivered Anois! His sire is the
incomparable palomino
Clononeen
Mull of Kintyre.
The Mull (a.k.a., "Romeo"), was recently purchased by Desert Jewel
Gypsy Horses, for an undisclosed six-figure sum, making him one of
the most valuable stallions ever imported into the USA. Anois has a
smokey black and white pinto coat pattern, which is consistent with
DNA color testing. Anois is heterozygous for the tobiano pattern (nT)
and the red factor (Ee), and he also carries a copy of the cream
dilution gene (nCr). Why spend a minimum of $30,000 for the
broodmare and stud fee, and then wait a year to see if you actually
get his equivalent, when you can buy him Now! for only $22,000?
