Great Pics Scavs, boy I wish I was there. You must be having a blast.

If you do another morning workout go up o the third floor and look around. You can go up to the roof and no one will stop you, great view and picture in dining area is awesome.

Made it back this AM with kids. Got to chat with Chuck a bit and meet the famous Cherie.

She looks great and we also got to see her neighbor Elite Squadron who is going in the feature today. Word is he can flat out run.

Went across the street to watch Cherie work out another horse on Oklahoma. Hung by the rail next to Bill Patcells and Shug M. Very cool...

Great Pic!
 
Okay now we are getting excited! Watched Saturday's races on the computer; can't wait to see everyone and our girl live. I can smell the BBQ now. Bringing the teenagers to finally meet her in person! Shorter ditance for us now from MTL. A big win and a big cocktail at Sirois!!! :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Can't wait until next weekend when i get up there.
Sumwon looks great as always.
Hope Elite takes it today.

Thanks,

Paul

Not sure.... I have yet to see him in person. My farm manager in NY recommended him to me and we will get to see him next Saturday or Sunday.

Did you name that horse, or did he come that way? :D

PSH 07-30-2007 10:45 AM

Naming of horse

He came that way. (Wiseman's Ferry - Sued)
My six year old wanted to name him Wind Devil.... He was not happy at first but seems to have gotten over it....

Got a chance to see SWLY yesterday. Boy, is she impatient! I couldn't get the peppermints unwrapped fast enough. She was so impatient she started kicking the stall with her left hoof until I delivered. Once she got her mints she was as sweet as ever. She made a friend for life with my wife. Her next door stallmate is a big colt named Elite Squadron who's going in the Amsterdam today. They had to add a partition above the regular wall between them to keep them apart. Maybe that's her new beau. Anyway, she looked and acted great.

Yeah, that leg kicking action scared the **** out of me, she was banging that metal hook, she has a great personality though

I'm glad the "non-horsey" owners get to meet Sumwon, and put a face and personality on the horses going around the track. Hey PMac, if your kids draw pictures of Sumwon, you have to photograph them and post them here - would love to see them :)

Thanks for all the pictures and the Sumwon and Saratoga stories!

Can't get them to post here from my computer

AeWingnut 07-30-2007 09:58 PM

hmmm

well, first get a free account with http://www.photobucket.com

if the files are too large open them in paint and either crop them or just go to
Image

choose Stretch/ Skew and put in maybe 50% (whatever gets it to fit on the screen without scrolling) and save

then upload onto photobucket
click on the IMG code
it will copy it then paste the IMG code onto a post here

if that doesn't work tell me what error you get
I'm going to bed
good luck
