There are alot of folks on here that haven't ever really been near a horse, let alone run their hands over them or ridden them. I think it's great people get that opportunity if they want it.Like BTW ... where's the pic of he sitting on Sumwon, Cherie holding the halter, and Chuck holding the sign that says, "Pony rides 10 cents"

Stopped by to see SWLY yesterday. My whole family got to meet her and had a really nice time. Apparently, we did not bring enough peppermints (I thought 8 was enough), but she was very friendly other than the begging part. Her next door neighbor (Top Royelle) was quite rambunctious, but Sumwon was a very well behaved girl. I have heard that she is in great shape and spirits.
According to Chuck, the chances of the 7f Starter Allowance race on August 26th being drawn in are quite good. I wasn't so sure about a substitute race being used as the originally scheduled races have all been filling at Saratoga, but he said that a lot of trainers pull out a bit early or try to race their horses the week up to Travers Day, so the races after Travers Day fill out a little bit lighter. According to Steve, Sumwon is "out of control" and ready to race. Thanks to Chuck and Steve once again. |
