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.

Jo Sly Pack’s New Career is Going Well
Jo Sly Pack is solidly showing training level and schooling first level. We have been doing some three phases and that is his talent. He will jump anything you point him at. People are shocked when I tell them how old he is. He is the only five year old TB I know that can gallop in a field and come right back to you and walk around on a loose rein.
Admiring Glances for Kwinn’s Kind Eye (and Natural Talent)
“Kwinn” (Dr. Canhewin) is doing so well. He looks wonderful; putting weight on and and his coat looks healthier too. The Famotidine and now the probiotic with antacid seem to be working well for him. I don’t get enough time to ride right now, so he really needs to build back up. He gets tired…
First Ride on an Off-the-Track Thoroughbred
Tips and tricks to riding your new off-the-track Thoroughbred.
Fast Commander – Nice to Meet the New You
Commander has had a personality change for the better almost immediately after being gelded. I’ve been on him once on the lunge line, just walking & trotting. That didn’t seem to bother him in the least. I’ve mostly been working with him on the ground & lunging. He’s still pretty swollen though he doesn’t seem…
Leader Board Scores Complements!
Thank you so much for Leader Board’s papers and his pictures. I really enjoyed seeing him as a baby! “Leader” is still doing amazing. He really seems to enjoy his new job. He comes running in from the field when I call him, so I guess he doesn’t hate to work. He has gained most…
Genuine Draft Genuinely Happy to be Home!
Genuine Draft arrived yesterday in great shape! I have attached a few pictures of him getting off the trailer and with his new friends. He settled in great and gets along with the horses very well. I will ride him today for the first time! I can’t wait. Thank you for all your help and…
