Thank you!

Entries for the 2010 Name the Foal Contest are closed. We've recieved tens of thousands of names, and our judging committee will be spending the next few weeks selecting the winning ones. The winning names will be announced during the "Masters" Tournament, September 8-12, 2010.

Hannoverian breeders have done an excellent job in developing a superior breed in the Hannoverian for over 250 years. That is why Spruce Meadows has chosen the Hannoverian Warmblood for their breeding program.

Spruce Meadows, along with CN and Sun Media, is pleased to present our Name the Foal Contest. It is a tradition that has become a fan favourite at Spruce Meadows, with literally thousands of great ideas coming in from thousands of great people. People of all ages join in on the fun in the hopes that that name they choose for their favourite colt or filly will carry the young horse to greatness!
