Default Nothing can beat this day....

these thoroughbreds are living the good life now. they are very happy and they deserve to be after a hard racing career at the track. It takes a while but once they settle down they can be very kind and gentle creatures.

there are no triple crown winners here but they are just as beautiful.

Default The easiest way to increase your

R.O.I. is to get close the horse. It is a very nurturing experience.

Thanks, her name is Maya, 8 years old and she is our God daughter. We have no children. (that we know of)

we brought her to the track when she was 5 and she's been hooked ever since. she is part of my master plan for the future of horse racing.
