Seven Years – 75 Races!

Aug 22, 2012

My vet says that this is the kind of racehorse that should be bred, since after 7years of racing, 75+ races he still has the legs of a healthy horse. My only regret is that I didn’t buy him sooner.

OTTB Popular One, aka Moose, nuzzles new dad, Nick”Moose” (OTTB Popular One) has calmed down after his trip and LOVES almost as much as we love giving it to him. “Moose” is the coolest horse ever. Personality is brought to a new level with him. He actually licked Nick. I think we have an identity…

Hey Dude – Don’t I Know You from Somewhere?

May 3, 2009

I am amazed at the intelligence of Thoroughbreds and in particular, my little Bubba. We went to the ring to ride and there was a spotted horse trotting around at the far end.
