SB,to my knowledge and memory RABL never produced any foals.I believe she died before her show career was over.I know she died at Vic's.

Smitty,THANKS for posting the pic of Rock a Bye Lady.She was one of the GREATEST mares that ever wore a saddle in my opinion and I loved her.

I remember her to be a very pretty and finely made show horse.
