Thoroughbreds can do

Bubba Encounters the Gates of Hell and They are Guarded by Three Ornery Arabs

Aug 8, 2008

Bubba and I have enjoyed being at Bits & Bytes Farm for the last month. But I think its time for him to come home and meet his new siblings, my three white Arabians (GG, Nettie and Kain) and little brown pony, Joe. I’ve fixed broken fencing and reset a few crooked posts. I’ve gone…

Brat Maverick is Available for Lease or Sale

Sep 5, 2011

Brat Maverick is a 16.1 hand 2002, grandson of Secretariat. He is sadly offered by his mom who wants to find him a very good home. “Maverick”  is currently in training at Bits & Bytes Farm where he may be test ridden. He is also available for lease as long as he remains at Bits…

My First Ride on Monarch’s Reign

Jan 11, 2010

The last time I was on a horse was more than two years ago, so I’m not exactly an expert rider these days! Plus – and I almost hate to add this, because in retrospect it seems so silly – Monarch’s racing history gave me some reason to doubt my first ride would be a smooth one. After all, he had raced twice in his short career, and he’d lost his jockey BOTH TIMES!

A June Affair Finds a Home in Tennessee

Nov 10, 2010

I must admit that I felt like a kid on Christmas morning as I waited for you to pull down the driveway with my new horse, A June Affair. It doesn’t seem to matter what age I get to be because I never loose the joy and love a beautiful horse gives to me. Especially….the Thoroughbred. The incredible, wonderful, big hearted OTTB!

This Wiseguy Ain’t Goin’ Anywhere!

Sep 13, 2008

I just looked around your site and you’ve really got a lot of great horses for sale. We’ve had some interest in Wiseguy and that’s been really nice. He went out on trial but when I dropped him off he kept trying to turn around and come back to me and was nickering and you…

Amanda Meets Allegiant

Jun 29, 2009

Amanda meets her off-the-track Thoroughbred Allegiant for the first time. It was our pleasure to have the opportunity to work with Allegiant during her first week off-the-track. We are happy to help any of our buyers with their new purchase.

Time Well Spent – “Dox” Blossoms

Feb 8, 2009

Thanks for your comments on Doxology.  I have to say I’ve put a lot of time into him.  I’ve spent everyday with him since he arrived, building a strong bond and developing trust.  I’ve taken sufficient time for him to recover fully from surgery after gelding,  regaining weight and adjusting to his new life.  Also,…

Muchu Cold, Muchu Good

Mar 20, 2012

Muchu (aka “Shu”) and Patrick have settled in together beyond my wildest dreams. At this point in time “Shu” has been off the track only 8 months and my son has only been riding the same 8 months, yet they are seamless in their bond. There have been periods when the girls have not been able to go out for a week at a time due to weather, and despite pent up energy, “Shu” always takes care of him the minute he puts his foot in the stirrup.
