so now, a new career--he's learning to be a steeplechaser. they didn't geld him, so they're hoping eventually he'll figure THAT out. meantime, he and ten cents a shine (anyone remember him??) are learning new things.
good luck to both of them.

Yeah I saw that, to quote Randy Jackson from American Idol, Alumni Hall "just wasn't feelin' it, dawg." Curious as to what methods they use to make a horse get interested and why they decided to go for steeplechasing in this case. Couldn't they just do like with War Emblem in Japan and take the insurance money, then work with him to eek out a few foals? Were there too many cons to doing that?
