Yeah we do. So I guess I'll be there a little late so that I'm not in the middle of my 2 1/2 hour commute.

Yeah 2 1/2...sometimes 3. But horses eat a lot, so the work has to be done.

So, here I am just waiting until 5:08...LMAO!!! :wink: :? :lol:

In this play you need to have financial sources or the horses have to pay for themselves, otherwise you,re leaving beiing financial broke down.
So once and a while selling one or getting a horse claimed is not the worsest of things that can happen taken into account the purse also
Written a nice little horse leaves out that you did not won,t to go breeding with her.

It was a good outcome for all. We don't breed all the mares we come across or race...some we just sell. After all, we are in business. This was the desired outcome for this filly.
