Thank you Sumwon

The stallions are on elevated ground sort of like a pitcher's mound.

Also thanks to you and Chuck and Thebby for doing the right thing for the horse.

While I wasnt a part owner of this filly... she will always be at the top of my list as a favorite race horse, and horse in general. The summer of 2007 in Saratoga Spring was by far the best for me in the 13 years I have spent my summers there.. Dont think it will ever be as good. Not only was I able to spend lots of time with the beautiful filly, but I made lifetime friendships with tons of great people that I probably would have never met if it wasnt for Sumwonlovesyou.

The retirement news makes me sad, but we should all be so greatfull that she will be able to have a happy retirement and will be loved by so many across the country for the rest of her life!! Just make sure she gets that big butt of hers scratched once and awhile!!!! :p

:{>: you Sumwon!!
Thx Lori!~

This is really beautiful. I think Steve and Chuck did an amazing thing for all of you DT'ers.. Wow the joy your gal brought you really comes thru in your elegant poem. I hope she drops a great foal that will fill your hopes and dreams. This mare sure is the luckiest lady in the world..

Aw, that's great, Dell!

I remember seeing the big girl at Turfway, right after Chuck bought her - heck, I remember hanging by the computer with fingers crossed during the auction <g>

Thanks, Sumwon! :{>:

she's done enough.

This is sad news, hope Sumwon enjoys her next career. Thanks to all who have made this possible, the good news is that we have some two year olds coming to help ease the pain.

Watched the CD race that Luke K called with Calvin aboard again last night. SWLY showed both of these likely two future hall of fame inductees what it meant to have the heart of a champion that day, and how quickly the flame can be extinguished. The voice, the jock and our girl crossed paths for just minutes that day but I'll remember it for the rest of my life...

Willie M. was aboard. (Willie rode 2 at CD and once at AP) calvin didn't ride until the first saratoga race. but point well made.:o

Calvin Borel in The HOF.....that's hysterical. He will probably get in right after Stew Elliot.

going to miss her at the track but looking forward to the future
