was looking through some of the older Kodak online albums and saw pics of SWLY at SAR just last night - damn...

yes, it is disappointing news, but at the same time am grateful the right decision has been made and would like to thank each and every one of "Team Simon" for their efforts, sincerely appreciated.. she was our first but won't be our last - keep us posted on her well-being !

edit - actually some of the ones was looking for and found were not on the Kodak site, but from here - thank you again, good times !

Some of the greatest moments in a sport I've followed for 30+ years. Thanks Sumwon.....and all of those that played a role.

Arlington race...from my perspective...

Any other ownership group would have given up on her long ago. I can't even imagine the expense that Chuck had to bear to get us this far. Thank you to all for your great efforts and care of our wonderful horse. I am excited for the next phase of her career and hope to see her first folas racing at saratoga in a few summers.

The original and best!

Sad news, but glad it seems like she will be OK. Big thanks to Chuck and team for picking her out, turning her around and hanging in there with her for so long.

The best $500 ever spent.

Thanks to all involved, especially the big girl!
Those are thrilling, cherished memories that I thought I would never get to experience, and I am very grateful that she will be able to move on to something else.

Oh no. Just when I thought the day could not get any worse, I read this post...

Thank you Chuck, Steve and everyone else who put this together. Many many thanks to Cheri, Bethani and the nameless others that took such good care of her during her convalescence.

As Paul said, if this had been any other ownership she would have been given up on long ago.

I hope she is happy and comfortable. She had such an amazing personality, I hope she is able to pass that on to her foals.

I look forward to regular updates about her new career.

Thank you Sumwonlovesyou
