Although most of our horses love training on the Tapeta and go well on it, you never know how they’re going to run on the surface until you try! Quake Lake tried and loved it! She set a good pace at Presque Isle last night and then pulled away to win by five and a half! […]

Diminutive Bum Bum
won at Pimlico yesterday. When I say diminutive, she is!! I don’t think we have measured her but I would be surprised if she made 14.2 hands! She’s by Giant’s Causeway whose progeny are often small, out of an In The Wings mare so a very European background. She herself was born in France. Many congratulations […]

Nice come back
Amanwella, after having a year off from the racetrack came back in fine form today to win at Pimlico. She’s a very unlikely temperament for a filly by Fusaichi Pegasus out of a Storm Cat mare, meaning she’s relaxed and sensible!! Cheris Treptow and Hickory Tree’s farm manager Jennifer were on hand to greet their winner who I […]

Indomable
{jcomments on}I know, we kept trying to call him Indomitable when he arrived!! He made his State side debut yesterday at Churchill Downs with a typical last (or nearly last) to first Julien Leparoux ride. He had an amazing turn of foot which I think surprised us all!! German horse, ridden by a French jockey […]

Let’s Do It
won today at the newly opened for the season Pimlico racetrack. He’d been knocking on the door at Gulfstream Park during the winter but I would think a little give in the ground at Pimlico definitely was preferable! Congratulations to Airdrie Stud for their El Prado homebred.{jcomments on}
