Pedigree Query

just an update regarding the mare who's photograph was posted in April, she had been starved at Galtee farms. Secret had only 3 previous foals, and was quite young. She was able to carry her foal to term, and even able to raise it for a short time; however due to the extreme emaciation and starvatio...

FLYING HEAT produced 9 foals, 9 winners, 3 graded stakes winners, POMPII grade 1 by BROAD BRUSH, OMI grade 2 by WILD AGAIN, and GROUND STORM, then she...

citabria--when u post alleging animal neglect or abuse there'll be questions. you have convinced me personally that your motivation is sincere. but, the farm has confronted your allegations directly, and you and your owner are thus far without response. seems pretty simple--was it the whole herd, o...

Why would someone create these false realities that rarely last more than a few days? Do they think the truth will fail to surface or is the lure of revenge so great-they are helpless in controlling their fantasies? Is there a therapist in the house? Actually I stopped responding because of the man...

I can honestly say that MY intention is not to try and put anyone out of business. Nor is it to give Midway, Kentucky or the racing industry a black eye. I truly know that there are some wonderful people there. And neither is the owner of these horses my client. Two horses were purchased through me ...

I have a farm in Midway and can confirm that horses were taken from a farm across from Midway College because they were starving and standing in dirt lots. Close acquaintances of mine did some of the transporting and saw the horses firsthand. Galtee is in that location and the details of the story ...

The owner of these horses have blamed themselves more than once for not being vigilant. To the best of my knowledge this is the first venture into the professional racing industry alone - and that may have only started a few months ago. I was liquidating TB breeding stock from another TB farm at the...

1. who in animal control have you talked to and exactly what did they tell you. names please. I didn't speak to the animal control individual. I was only witness to the conversations I heard over the cell phone, and to be very honest it was quietly chaotic. If I say chaos it would sound like there w...

Double post.

worksoplad, you omitted one detail. how did the mare get in this condition? The owner of the horses is sending me photo's of more mares that were kept at Galtee Farm. The photographs include those taken at the time of sale, or used for the sale immediatly before they were shipped to Galtee and phot...

Why does the mare in the photos have hip numbers on? The way I understood the situation, the photo is of a mare who was purchased several months ago and boarded at this farm all winter. The photos were taken recently - after the farm in question starved her. But, hip numbers would not stay on all w...

. I studied your posts and did some asking around. What I uncovered left me feeling a bit uhm shall we say "bothered." This farm definitly needs to be looked into IMPO. If the owner has the connections that I believe they do then that may be why you are having the problems getting the matter REALLY...

Ok, now i call BULLS**T on you. This is your very first posting to this group. You have no evidence and you want us to accept your allegations. In your own words no one will back you up. Whoever you are, until you pony up some EVIDENCE I think you would be better served to keep your mouth shut and ...

Most absentee owners are several states away. I know that Galtee had clients from California to Florida. That is perfectly normal in the TB industry. It certainly isn't normal to visit the farm to see your horses - and take the blankets off once healthy horses to find them starving. then we get to t...

The friend who owns these horses never intended to get me involved in this mess. And, quite truthfully they may sincerely regret it, for they know that I take abuse very seriously. While buying broodmares and race prospects they frequently sent me photo's and video's of prospects asking if I thought...
