Wow - 3 new horses at once. Looks like two 4 year olds and one older campaigner. What are they like? I want to put some comments in my virtual stable

Well, Dancer is grey, almost white. He's an old class act and awnry to boot. He'll nip you in a heartbeat if you aren't paying attention. Big bodied guy too. Yankee is sooooo cute. He's a little bay tank with chrome. Sweet and could double as an event horse! Randy is tall and lanky. A bay with a star and a trot to die for. He almost dropped me today though with a very athletic sppok. Jammed my bad hand into his neck and was almost off his right side. Thank goodness I had a yoke on him or I would have been eating some dirt!

Just wanted to let everyone know that we took Tipping back tonight. She dropped about 100 pounds in the two weeks she was gone. Poor girl. She's a bit of a train wreck right now. But we'll get her feeling better again. I'm so happy to have her back!!

Sounds like she'll be happy to be back! Poor girl - that's a lot of weight to lose so quickly.

Oh, I'm so happy you have Tipping back I watched that race and saw the jockey fall off. Was he okay? I think that Tipping got caught up in it a bit as she never really caught up again after that. Congratulations for Minerva's second place and Ze Fact's win.

Julia, The jockey is okay. Thank goodness. There was a spill in the 5th though and the jockey in it was not so lucky. I know he went to the ER but don't know what the word is on injuries. The horse was not so lucky. Ze Fact and Minerva do not race for us anymore.

It must have been a bad night with two falls. It is hard to keep up with my VS I take it that you don't have Tiger Slew anymore either. I noticed that he had a different trainer's name last night.

No, he was claimed the first time we ran him.
