DT STABLE PARTNERS: 'Sumwon' Update

[dellinger63]

Sounds great. This may be selfish but I hope she makes her debut for us at Keenland as I'd be able to see her live.

Oh and see Chuck and Paula again as well.

Sounds like we're heading in the right direction.

Thanks for the updates.

I think I would get along with your wife. She thinks like I do! Tell her to bring them all.

Steve, thanks for the update, was wondering how our girl was progressing.

[Riot]

Very exciting, sounds like she's enjoying her new barn, and Chuck's eye and experience are starting to pay off. Even a well-bred girl has to work for a living, and keep her account balance in the black - let's hope Chuck can pursuade the secretary to card a race before the end of the meet.

if I get to see her at Keeneland, and meet everyone else there, icing on the cake !

Steve, how are the silks looking?

[Unstable]

Thanks for the updates.

I know this is a business, and Chuck is looking for the best place to run Sumwon...

But I find myself hoping she doesn't run in a claiming race, because I don't want her to get claimed. How are all the partners in Dee Tee Stables going to feel if Sumwon gets claimed in her first race for us?

I know that this is my first opportunity to own even the smallest part of a horse, and that may be the problem. I'm already emotionally attached. I loved Sumwon's pedigree, and I thought her past performance running lines showed a lot of heart. I really think Sumwon found the ideal situation with Chuck and Dee Tee Stable. I was looking forward to a number of races this year, possibly even at Saratoga, which would give me another very good excuse to go there for the first time. I was looking forward to our selling her as a broodmare, and then watching her babies run.

I guess the risk and reality of her getting claimed is another part of the education about horse racing. But we may have to start a support group if Sumwon gets claimed.
