Thoroughbreds can do
No Complaints on Moving from Happy Fella Alley Flash
Sorry it has been so long! A lot has happened since I last wrote. In June my husband and I decided that we have had enough of Colorado and moved back to sunny Florida. I was very excited to be near my family and friends again, but this was the most stressful move I had…

One Year Anniversary for OTTB Leader Board!
My Thoroughbred ex-race horse, Leader Board, has been such a blessing for me. My trainer said that even of we looked at 50 horses he couldn’t have found a better match than for me.
Rack & Roll – Nothing Scares Dance to the Wire

“Bubba” mom is our Web mistress for our Success Stories. Just like the shoemaker’s children going barefoot – Bubba needs an update. Elizabeth took some photos of Bubba in his beautiful thick winter coat and mom Melanie in her new down vest. See them in Bubba’s Photo Gallery.

We put him in at Beginner Novice since we hadn’t even been able to school a cross country course. Three days before the event we took him to Longwood…

Fast Commander Get the Blues at “A” Show
Fast Commander did three days of our local “A” show over the past 2 weekends. We competed in the Long Stirrup division to stay at 2 feet. He won two of the over fences classes, got a 4th in the flat, & had a variety of other ribbons along the way. The best thing is that he seems to enjoy being ridden & enjoy jumping.
