Rocky Bear and Bits & Bytes Farm owner - Elizabeth
This Web site was created to tell the stories of the Off-the-Track Thoroughbreds Bits & Bytes Farm has sold. The Mission of Bits & Bytes Farm is to help sellers (of Thoroughbred racehorses for sale) to find buyers who have the ability to transition these horses to new careers. We offer assistance and guidance to make sure the horses we sell are successfully placed. Our Success Stories are proof that Thoroughbred racehorses make great sport horses and family members when their racing careers are over.
When a horse is purchased with the assistance of Bits & Bytes Farm, we require the new owners to stay in touch and provide us with updates. These updates are posted on our Success Stories pages so that the sellers of the horses know that their horses are doing well and have not gone back to racing or been slaughtered. The sellers care about these wonderful Thoroughbreds and they too enjoy reading about their horses' successful new careers. They often call or e-mail to thank us for finding a home for a horse they bred or trained. To learn more about Bits & Bytes Farm and our mission please visit our Web site at: www.BitsandBytesFarm.com.

Happy One Year Anniversary Missy & Loverboy!
It is hard to believe it has already been a year since Loverboy came into my life! I can still so clearly remember the first time I laid eyes on him, that sense of pure joy and wonder that I was actually realizing such a long-held…

Coastside in Raleigh
Hey! Sorry it’s been so long! Coast is fantastic! He is on a private farm outside of Raleigh and he is fat and happy. He is now jumping and has been to a couple small shows. I’m not going to sell him but if something should ever happen I would come to you for help…
“Rappin” on the Trails with an OTTB
Rap It Up went out for his first trail ride on Monday and he did great. We have several trails that include hills, creek crossings, ditches, logs, etc. and he passed his first test with flying colors. I took him out by himself (therefore no pictures, sorry) and he took everything in stride.
Hollywood Vic”torious” on the Trails with Stevie Loverboy
Former Thoroughbred race horse, Hollywood Vic, dressed up in costume for Halloween. He also enjoys trail riding and jumping logs in the woods.
Maximum Impact Clearly States his Position
Hey there I just wanted to give you a quick update on Max. He has settled in nicely with my other horses after he let them know “I am the boss here”. He is doing just great. He is too funny. Whenever I go out in the pasture he comes up to me and smells…
Haunted Halloween Hunter Pace is Big Hit for Horses
We went to the Haunted Hollow Hunter Pace at Ashland, October 18th. We were the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Since most of our Bits & Bytes Farm horses are black or bay, we only took “Dudley” (aka Josh) to be the black horse. Leslie took her chestnut Thoroughbred as the red horse, and Mary…
“Kwinn” and Ronni Send Kudos for Canters
Oh how exciting to read Cheri’s success story and see her smiling face while she was cantering Vic! Simply AWESOME! I thoroughly enjoyed reading how excited she is to have her sweet boy in her life! My best to them! And, I just had to let you know that Noah was very excited to read…
Getting Caught Up with Tru Native
Just a quick email to let you know how SUPER Truman is coming along this last week. He is even now accepting lunging with side-reins (very loose) with some cantering. He is getting stronger, balanced and more confident each day. I will be sending off another success story in the next week or so with new pictures of me riding and trotting.
This Wiseguy Ain’t Goin’ Anywhere!
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…
