Default "The Blue Collar Thoroughbred"

Delightful NYTimes article on Karakorum Stables and real blue-collar owners.

(Props again to Steve, Chuck & co for offering the same kind of opportunity via Dee Tee Stables)

Good stuff. The Parting Glass folks seem to also be doing well lately.

If they are Blue Collar, don't know what that makes us...

Maybe we should challenge them to a drinking or pie eating contest...

Genuine Risk,
Nice article! Thanks for the link.
If anyone is interested, I have two 10% shares available on two horses. One is a 2 yo filly, ready to go racing, and the other is her yearling full brother.
Both are 3X3 to Alydar.
PM me if interested.
