Good News & Not So Good
Our mare Yuma Thurman ran on Friday. She was in the lead most of the way but got caught at the wire. That was actually the good news — she ran well and pulled up good. Coming in second also … Continue reading
Happy Father’s Day
Today is Father’s Day. Our trainer Drew Fulmer is a father and a grandfather, but he is even more. He is a “DAD” to our horses. Here is a silly poem which I sent to him as a Happy Dad’s … Continue reading

On the move in 2015
It may seem that I have been lax by not posting anything new. Oh well, I started 2015 in the ICU and I am now recovering at home. My health has been problematic for some time now, but that’s a … Continue reading

Smile and say cheese
As promised, I have photos to share. These are the last three horses that we claimed. The first claim this season was Cut to the Front. Cut to the Front is a 4-year old California bred gelding out of Storming Fever. … Continue reading

Claiming a good thoroughbred horse is more difficult than you might think. The first step is to find horses in the appropriate price range. Once we have selected a few horses to look at, it’s time for some investigating. Fortunately … Continue reading
The Dream is still alive!
There are things that dreams and fantasies are made of. I think I found that in my favorite horse Tonight at Eleven. Tonight at Eleven is a thoroughbred race horse with more potential than anyone but me seems to recognize. … Continue reading
