First win of 2013!

We got lucky and won our first race of the year last night at Charles Town Race Track in West Virginia. This is the third horse we have ever run there and our first winner. PRIZE WINNER is a homebred and with this win took her career earnings over $200,000.

We went from somewhere in the high 1200’s in the trainers standing to 316. Last year we finished the year in the trainers standings at 121 after getting as high as 103.

Oaklawn Park canceled the races for Saturday and Sunday due to excessive rain there and the poor track condition due to a sink hole that popped out right at the 7 1/2 pole over the tunnel.

It has rained in Kentucky for the past three days. If the temperature had been colder here, we would now be up to our eyeballs in snow!

January Sale!

JANUARY 2012 SALE

The Keeneland Winter Sale starts on Monday and runs all week. Every type and age of horse is in it and we have always done good with horses we have acquired here.
