Talked with Paul and Nat this morning. Lloyd is at Stonegate Stables in Ft. Edward (just a hoot and a holler up the road)
http://www.stonegatestables.net/data/ If it doesn't rain, we'll take a run up to see him.

We went out to Stonegate today to visit with Lloyd. We called in advance to make sure it was OK. No problem - they said to come visit anytime between 9 and 5. It is a mere 7 miles from us.
Chris greeted us and led us out to Lloyd who was in a large round pen. He seemed a bit confused and unsettled so we didn't impose on him other than to take some photos. About 15 minutes later it threatened to rain, so Lloyd was led back into the barn. He seemed happy about that. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

Thanks Doreen -
Love the look on Lloyd's face. Thoroughbreds are funny in turn out, some have no idea what they are supposed to do with unscripted time. |

thanks for the shots Doreen and appreciate your checking in on the Lloyd - looks like he's doing his best impression of a Morgan Show Horse, trying to blend in with the rest of his peers up there, no dummy lol

On July 11th, Steve posted this about Lloyd - "Spoke with Gary who feels we need to stop on Lloyd with a turnout for 60-75days. Something continues to nag at him and the vets that have gone over the gelding cannot see anything specific. Chuck also agreed with Gary's thoughts that time away should be beneficial after what has been more than a year of constant training for Lloydobler."
