I'm sure this was only a one time error but Jockey Club sent me the wrong info on the first tattoo search I ever did. I would have never known except I had paid for the $50 package and only got the $35 one. When I asked about it, I got an apology and a whole new horse pedigree, I mean new- completel...

She looks just like a pro! Congratulations, and thanks for the photos. Haven't managed to get to the Royal for a couple of years now. Every year I promise myself I will get there but something (horses) always gets in the way. Maybe next year...

Here's my worry on all this- what will gas prices be in 5 years? Look at the past year. Honestly we are fooling ourselves if we don't remember that oil/gas/etc is a finite resource. Prices are never really going to get better because everyday there is just a bit less left. Our demand goes up and our...

How would you go about contributing? A family in Ontario this past winter had a terrible time with several of their ponies and someone set them up a paypal account for donations.

Checkered Flag

Can anyone tell me who this is? I have a June 13, 1959 winner's circle picture from Suffolk Downs of a horse called Checkered Flag. Horse is not in database, so if anyone can give me info or add to database, TIA.

Just recieved my estimate for oil/ propane for next year at $6000. Argh!!! We switched our pool over to solar last year so our propane costs are minimal now- just the fireplace in winter and the hot water tank, so most of that is for oil. Have to call the company to talk about it this week- haven't ...

It took about 8 mths and my farrier (whose been doing his feet for the 3.5 yrs we've had him) says hi...

Sprucewood Tack actually and yes i believe it is bug check. My OTTB had such a terrible case of hives last summer that he was on steroids, anti-histimines etc. 3 weeks before championships too.

I have one I bought at a local tack store (local to London, ON). I think it is by Rambo- anyway it is white and it covers the neck and has a big belly band. Add a fly mask and my OTTB is covered as much as possible. It is made of that stiff meshy material that is suppsed to stand up to every day wea...

Glad to hear that CG is doing better. Had a problem with my very unfamous (but very special to me) OTTB this past year. It was recommended I put him on Omega Alpha Equine Liver Flush which includes milk thistle. Have to say I was dubious at the beginning, but he has changed alot since he's been on i...
