Tech,

Was actually just putting the email addresses together for the Partnership Mailing List when I looked at this!

We've got $18,500 in the bank and probably another $7,000-$9,000 coming in over the next two weeks... Chuck has spotted a 3yo filly that's been running at Turfway (5/1-0-0) and likely needs lawn that might be available for between $12,500-$15,000. And there's a 4yo at Gulfstream with a preference for grass that's been running for $35,000 and may be available for $25,000 privately that has come up... Just two possibilities... There's a chance we could end up with two horses that are both in the $10,000-$12,500 range...

We could be up and running by as soon as the end of February.. certainly by early March... We'll use a section of this website for news and photos, etc., and I'll be communicating to everyone via email too...

I've gotten a bunch of email and PM's from everyone, and now that it's really happening, people seem tremendously excited... Now we just have to get a little lucky with a solid, sound animal or two!

Thanks to everyone who's been so receptive and responsive to this crazy idea!

Steve

Okay, this is indeed exciting and fun. Hearing you guys talk about it a bit yesterday on ATRAB added to it. I'm sending in another share purchase to help ensure we can do what we need to <g>

I'm just outside Lexington, and I am seeing a good excuse to visit Saratoga for the first time ... Looking forward to meeting the rest of you crazy people when the horse runs.

Steve, post those silks when you have them! :-) Will have to check with accountant on if fly-in/fly-out road trip and purchase of Dee Tee color-coordinated race day outfits (okay, a hat, but I'm sure it will be quite a nice hat) can possibly be written off .... <vbg>

i also am interested in the silks--my daughter keeps asking about stuff like that.
i'm also wondering if there will be hats or shirts available. i'm willing to send in $ to pre-order. i'd love a shirt, as i don't wear hats much. steve, i know you have SO MUCH free time to take care of such mundane details!

Working on silks approval.. Never that easy getting exactly what you want, but the colors are "DT Blue" and Cream with Green accents or regalia.. As soon as there is an OK on silks design we'll get some merchandise to reflect it..

That's awesome, Steve! I can't afford to be a part of the partnership, but I'll definitely sport the hat and shirt. Love the colors, too.

SWEET! i figure silks might be as difficult to get approval as naming a horse...

i'll have to find someone to make me a big ass coffee cup with the silk pattern on it for work!
