He picked up something at the Keeneland Sales. According to multiple other reports, there were other horses there that were sick, it must have been a bad virus to take down a big strong stallion like IWR. So sad, he was finally going to have the life and owners he deserved, then the fellow gets a vi...

Well I got 100% Black.. just a cute white star. Colt. He's really gorgeous. I think I might try to register him as black and see what happens. Since they get DNA in the DNA kit the JC should be able to also get the genetic color with the parentage, n'est ce pas? Hi Madelyn, Hope you and yours are d...

Hello! Is there any way to see a photo of that filly? The black TB's are now so rare, I was lucky enough to get one and when running she loved the wire to wire win styles, but we never bred her. I bred my blood bay mare to Devil His Due (rip) hoping to get a black foal...nope this mare's red genes a...

Hello friends, wishing all very safe and Happy Holidays! Speaking of women owners/trainers, if I may take a moment here to honor my best friend, who has been in this sport for decades, with no fanfare. In her early 70's now (she'd kill me if she saw this...!) but you would not know it, she has been ...

OH my God! I have been away, but have to say I came back on specifically to ask and learn (still) from Jorge's opinion of a filly we are looking at with unusual pink/grey coloring and pattern, pure TB. I always looked forward to his immense knowledge, he did not have to look anything up; it was all ...

Happy Holidays Madelyn! Long time... :) You have done a spectacular job with him, very lovely! I immediately thought when I saw him, photos of the great Swaps and also the great Prairie Bayou. He is just lovely! My fav. color as well. "if they are red, there must be a white blaze and stockings&...

Agree, where is the "like" button on the comments. Of course, we would have loved to see a TC winner, but as soon as this fellow started to rant and rave my immediate thought was "sore loser" Be worried about the condition of your horse, it was apparent to see he was not running ...

Jorge, you will like this one, as I love her: Shenanigans Dam of RUFFIAN, Laughter, Buckfinder and BM of the year, 1975 She was a lovely GREY (Jorge) daughter of Native Dancer.. as was her daughter Laughter, a grey, who produced Private Terms. Shenanigans female line is still going long and strong. ...

Hi all, and Happy Day before Belmont! A very exciting time, a great story of a regular horse showing up the millionaires, and overpriced stallion fees; racing needs this TC badly. I have been comparing California Chrome's conformation to that of Slew, Secretariat, Ruffian, Citation, and many other g...

This begs the question.......WHY? ALL forms of human athletic endeavor have improved significantly in the last 50 years and yet 2:03+ is all the most heralded thoroughbreds can muster? :? It's hard to know what the MAJOR reason for the dismal performance of Thoroughbreds can be attributed. Nutritio...

Hi Madelyn, I'm so sorry that you sold him, the photos of him you had sent me showed how gorgeous he is. I know it must have been hard for you to sell, and I wish you the very best with the 3 new ones. Hope you are doing well and healthy too!

For Jellac! Hope you have been well Jellac!! We talked about Grasshopper several times, wondering if you ever were able to make it up to see him? Now he's got some 2 year olds already. How time flies. I kept getting promised by the farm down there for updates/photos of him/his foals/ even had the of...

OH NO! Madelyn!! Rocky is for sale? Or sold? I have a very beautiful Storm Cat granddaughter that was doing well until she freaked in the starting gate, smashed her pretty red blazed face on the gate, broke some teeth, and gashed open her chest, and they STILL did not scratch her! (we could not see ...

1.3 and 1.6 MILLION?! LOL try ten grand....will win ya the Derby!!

Hi Joltman!! Hope you are well! 300K for a 2 year old is a lot. I think this weekend showed that you need not spend hundreds of thousands for a great horse... What's Ramona think? And look at some of the videos of the two year olds under tack being pushed to prob. beyond their limit on youtube. A lo...
