1. foals

   A foal is an equine up to one year old; this term is used mainly for horses, but can be used for donkeys. More specific terms are colt for a male foal and filly for a female foal, and are used until the horse is three or four. When the foal is nursing from its dam (mother), it may also be called a "suckling". After it has been weaned from its dam, it may be called a "weanling". When a mare is pregnant, she is said to be "in foal". When the mare gives birth, she is "foaling", and the impending birth is usually stated as "to foal". A newborn horse is "foaled". After a horse is one year old, it is no longer a foal, and is a "yearling". There are no special age-related terms for young horses older than yearlings. When young horses reach breeding maturity, the terms change: a filly over three (four in horse racing) is called a mare, and a colt over three is called a stallion. A castrated male horse is called a gelding regardless of age; however, colloquially, the term "gelding colt" is sometimes used until a young gelding is three or four. (There is no specific term for a spayed mare other than a "spayed mare".) Horses that mature at a small stature are called ponies and occasionally confused with foals. However, body proportions are very different. An adult pony can be ridden and put to work, but a foal, regardless of stature, is too young to be ridden or used as a working animal. Foals, whether they grow up to be horse or pony-sized, can be distinguished from adult horses by their extremely long legs and small, slim bodies. Their heads and eyes also exhibit juvenile characteristics. Although ponies exhibit some neoteny with the wide foreheads and small stature, their body proportions are similar to that of an adult horse. Pony foals are proportionally smaller than adults, but like horse foals, they are slimmer and have proportionally longer legs.

1. Foals

   Jack y Yannis, amigos desde la infancia, formaban originariamente parte de una banda de math rock llamada The Edmund Fitzgerald que se disolvió después de afirmar que las cosas habían llegado a ser «demasiado serias» y querían tener «mayor diversión realizando su música». Try Harder Records (Youthmovie Soundtrack Strategies, Blood Red Shoes, Jonquil, Tired Irie) va a publicar un doble CD retrospectivo de todo el material publicado y sin publicar de The Edmund Fitzgerald en septiembre de 2008. Jimmy Smith estudiaba en la Universidad de Hull y se graduó en Geografía. Él y Walter Gervers, amigos desde que estaban en el Abingdon School, tocaban en una pequeña banda de Oxford llamada Face Meets Grill que se separó poco antes de la formación de Foals. Jimmy es el único miembro de la banda que ha completado su grado universitario -los otros cuatro integrantes abandonaron la universidad (incluyendo a Yannis y Edwin dejando sus cursos de Lengua Inglesa y Literatura en la Universidad de Oxford) cuando la banda firmó con Transgressive. El cantante de Youthmovie Soundtrack Strategies (ahora Youthmovies), Andrew Mears,[3] formó parte de la banda en sus principios, como voz principal y guitarrista. Estaba presente en la primera publicación del single Try Harder Records, "Try This on Your Piano / Look at My Furrows of Worry", pero abandonó después de varios meses para concentrarse en el álbum Good Nature que iban a publicar los Youthmovies. Con la incorporación de Edwin a los teclados (lo conoció Yannis cuando trabajaba en un bar de Oxford) se completó la actual formación. Las influencias de la banda son variadas: citan trabajos techno como "Plumbicon" de Monolake, y pop comercial como Nelly Furtado y Gwen Stefani como principales fuentes de inspiración. Además, algunos miembros de Foals creen que el influyente compositor minimalista Steve Reich es «el mejor músico de todos los tiempos».[cita requerida] Yannis ha mostrado afinidad y cercanía a grandes como Radiohead. Su grupo favorito es la banda de math rock Sweep the Leg Johnny. La banda ha anunciado que va a publicar su tercer single del álbum Antidotes, "Red Socks Pugie" el 21 de abril de 2008 a través de Transgressive Records. En 2010 el grupo anunció el lanzamiento de su próximo disco de estudio, titulado Total Life Forever y que estará disponible a partir del 10 de mayo en las disquerías del Reino Unido y, posteriormente, en todo el mundo.

Examples of foals in a Sentence

1. James MacLeod:

   Tapit is one of the most successful sires in the world right now and has been for a while and is getting some extremely talented mares sent to him, so likely those foals are going to race at higher levels, there’s probably more grays now racing at the top tier on average than a normal year, so we might see an increase in grays at the top tier over the next couple of decades.

2. Wendy Winstead:

   They took off running, i had mares and foals screaming like they were being terrorized.
